EPR, which\nstands for Extended Producer Responsibility, is a government policy that places\nproducers in charge of the treatment and disposal of consumer goods. Producers,\nimporters, manufacturers, and brand owners must obtain EPR authorisation. EPR\nis a practice that incorporates environmental, economic, and social concerns.\nEPR is a policy concept that holds producers financially and physically\naccountable for the treatment and disposal of post-consumer items. In theory,\ndelegating such authority might generate incentives to decrease source waste\nand thereby promote environmentally friendly product design and support waste\nmanagement goals. The OECD is expanding EPR to encompass more products, product\ngroups, and waste streams like electrical appliances and products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Producers’ Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR)\nis governed by the grant of EPR Authorisation. Producers must apply to CPCB in\nForm 1 of the guidelines for EPR Authorization. This online E-Waste Management\nSystem allows application producers to apply for EPR Authorization<\/a><\/strong> online. The\ncurrent EPR Application module is limited to online application submission and\nEPR Authorisation grant. All stakeholders, including producers, PROs,\ndismantlers, recyclers, and refurbishers, are obliged to register on this\nsystem. Producers, PROs, dismantlers, recyclers, and refurbishers add\ntransporters and collection locations\/centres to this system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
