This is great stuff... Now does anybody have the Cliff's Notes version?
I fell asleep after the first paragraph.

I agree with Jody.
I have copied the relevant sections. There is a typo in that the
reference
to 42463 should be to (f) rather than (g) which defines covered
electronic
waste.
I see it as an anti - dumping clause. If you can not sell your monitor
in
the EU you won't be able to dump it on the poor folks in Ca.

25214.10. (a) For purposes of this section ''electronic device'' has
the same meaning as a ''covered electronic device'', as defined in
subdivision (g) of Section 42463 of Public Resources Code.
(b) The department shall adopt regulations, in accordance with this
section, that prohibit an electronic device from being sold or offered
for
sale in this state if the electronic device is prohibited from being
sold or
offered for sale in the European Union on and after its date of
manufacture, to the extent that Directive 2002/95/EC, adopted by the
European Parliament and the Council of the European Union on January
27, 2003, prohibits that sale due to the presence of certain heavy
metals.
42463
(f) (1) ''Covered electronic device'' means a cathode ray tube,
cathode ray tube device, flat panel screen, or any other similar video
display device with a screen size that is greater than four inches in
size
measured diagonally and which the department determines, when
discarded or disposed, would be a hazardous waste pursuant to Chapter
6.5 (commencing with Section 25100) of Division 20 of the Health and
Safety Code.
(2) ''Covered electronic device'' does not include an automobile or
a large piece of commercial or industrial equipment, including, but not
limited to, commercial medical equipment, that contains a cathode ray
tube, cathode ray tube device, flat panel screen, or other similar video
display device that is contained within, and is not separate from, the
larger piece of industrial or commercial equipment.
(g) ''Covered electronic waste'' or ''covered e-waste'' means a
covered electronic device that is discarded or disposed.

Here is the Legal Council's digest, the link is here:

Everyone out there read this for yourselves it would be a very bad thing
to
get wrong
John
Extract from the legal council
digest.................................................
The bill
would require the department to adopt regulations to prohibit an
electronic device from being sold or offered for sale in this state if
the
electronic device is prohibited from being sold in the European Union
on and after its date of manufacture, due to the presence of certain
heavy
metals. The bill would prohibit these regulations from taking effect
until
January 1, 2007, or on or after the date the Directive 2002/95/EC, as
adopted by the European Parliament and the Council of the European
Union on January 27, 2003, takes effect, whichever date is later. The
bill
would require the department to exclude certain electronic devices from
the regulations and would prohibit the department from requiring the
manufacture or sale of an electronic device that is different than, or
not
otherwise prohibited by, the European Union,

The way I read it,"electronic devices" as used in that section of SB50
means
"covered electronic devices", which is fully defined elsewhere in SB50
as
meaning "CRTs, electronic devices containing CRTs or video displays" as
fully defined elsewhere in SB50.
