Abstract: This article presents the institutional and legal framework in the field of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) management and elements of environmental impact in conditions that are not complying with the regulations on the WEEE management. The study is based on the description of the WEEE management in Romania in the context of harmonizing national environmental law with European Directives. High amounts of WEEE and the limited capacities for disposal and recycling, related to the necessity of transposing the European Union legislation into national law became a problem for WEEE management in Romania.
