Or. Admin. Code § 340-098-0270 - Manufacturer Obligation Calculation

(1) A coordinating body, or an electronics producer responsibility organization if a coordinating body is not designated, must annually calculate each manufacturer's manufacturer obligation by:
(a) Multiplying the manufacturer's market share for each product category by the product category's percentage of the total weight of all covered electronic devices recycled during the previous year; and
(b) Adding the percentages calculated under subparagraph (a) of this section.
(2) In calculating a product category's percentage of the total weight of covered electronic devices recycled during the previous year for subparagraph 1(a) of this rule, an electronics producer responsibility organization or coordinating body shall use the total weight of covered electronic devices recycled in an electronics producer responsibility program during the previous year. For 2026, where covered electronic devices are not eligible for recycling by an electronics producer responsibility program in 2025, an electronics producer responsibility organization or coordinating body may use national data, consumer research, sampling, or any other similar data from 2025 to apportion the costs of the program or programs among all manufacturers, and to reconcile such apportionment against manufacturer obligations in subsequent years.
