One area particularly in the news is electronic waste—from the materials used to develop and manufacture components, as well as computer hardware and all types of devices that use electronic materials. Many manufacturers and distributors have begun tentative steps to offer recycling services for their own products—usually charging their customers a not-insignificant fee for the privilege. Consumers and businesses of all sizes are paying the price in dealing with the waste associated with these devices and answers to this problem are being sought.

Another "answer," proposed by Rep. Mike Thompson, Dem.- 1st Dist. CA, is the Computer Hazardous Waste Infrastructure Program (CHIP) Act, which would require the Environmental Protection Agency to administer a grant program that would help set up computer recycling across the USA, funded by a $10.00 fee levied against all retail sales of desktop, laptop and similar PC's and monitors. Manufacturers and consumers view this proposal with understandable skepticism.

D&S Technology, an American company based in Santa Ana, CA is doing what America has always done best—identifying a need and applying market forces to provide the solution. D&S Technology specializes in the area of reclaiming/recycling electronic materials, everything from bare circuit boards to entire devices. D&S Technology offers tested, environmentally safe methods to deal with virtually all types of electronic waste—waste that often ends up in landfills, pollutes ground water and causes long-lasting environmental damage—and all without charging fees.
