In 2001, Arkansas enacted the Arkansas Computer and Electronic Solid Waste Management Act, which requires that state agencies manage and sell surplus computer equipment, establishes a computer and electronics recycling fund, and authorizes the Department of Environmental Quality to regulate and/or ban the disposal of computer and electronic equipment in Arkansas landfills.
2001. aastal sätestas Arkansase osariik õigusakti "Arkansas Computer and Electronic Solid Waste Management", mis nõuab, et riigiasutused haldaksid ja müüksid liigsed arvutid, kehtestas arvuti ja elektroonikajäätmete taaskasutamise fondi ja autoriseeris Arkansase "Department of Environmental Quality" reguleerida ja keelata elektroonikajäätmete prügilatesse viimist.
