Washington HB1550 mandates electric vehicle battery management by producers.

Washington HB1550 requires producers of electric vehicle propulsion batteries to develop and submit battery management plans to the Department of Ecology. These plans must detail methods for collecting, transporting, remanufacturing, repurposing, recycling, or disposing of used batteries. Producers must also inform consumers about end-of-life management options and collection services. The bill defines "producer" as the manufacturer, brand owner, or distributor of the battery or vehicle containing the battery.
