Northwest Territories' Electronics Recycling Program launched on February 1, 2016
The Government of the Northwest Territories (GNWT) contracted Alberta Recycling to administer the revenue portion of their Electronics Recycling Program and Alberta Recycling is the main point of contact for companies (Distributors) selling in or into the NWT.

- Collect environmental handling fees on designated electronics sold/distributed;
- Report and remit fees, where applicable; and
- Maintain accurate books and records.
