OH Dear Mr. Dyas: terno tr No"vember'~22r7-199'l'''~^reg ar dln'g-'the'^ upcoming Skinner Landfill PRP meeting on December 12, 1991. It is PPG's corporate policy with respect to Superfund activities to cooperate voluntarily with environmental agencies and other PRPs to address adverse conditions at a site where PPG is involved. PPG has conducted a diligent search of its records to determine whether any of its facilities sent materials to the Skinner Landfill. As PPG indicated in its 104(e) responses, it does not have any internal documents or other relevant evidence linking it to this site. Upon interviewing employees at PPG's Circleville facility, it was reported that PPG Circleville employed Chemical Leaman Tank Lines, Inc. during the relevant time period to transport finished products to various PPG customers. In addition, it is believed that Circleville received raw materials from suppliers via transport fay Chemical Leaman. PPG has no evidence that PPG used Chemical Leaman to transport waste materials and has submitted two 104(e) responses to the United States Environmental Protection Agency stating same. Mr. Charles R. Dyas December 9, 1991 Page 2 Based upon our current information, PPG does not believe that; it is connected to the Skinner Landfill site and, at this time, declines participation in the PRP group.

  • Cullet Supply Issues and Technologies David Rue
    Cullet Supply Issues and Technologies David Rue The Glass Manufacturing Industry Council White Paper on Cullet Utilization and Opportunities is funded entirely by GMIC and is provided to all interested parties at no charge Cullet Supply Issues and Technologies October, 2018 The objective of this study is to provide information to assist GMIC members in gaining a better understanding of ways in which more post-consumer cullet can be recycled and to investigate technical changes GMIC could catalyze to make that happen. This White Paper Study was led by David Rue with input from Robert Lipetz (GMIC Executive Director) and input from experts on collection, processing, characterization, procurement, and re-use of cullet. The opinions of experts are often but not always in agreement. Efforts have been made to include input from all parties. To obtain the most open possible input, the names of all respondents have been excluded from this document. No proprietary information is included. Several company names are included, with the understanding that these references are for illustration and informational purposes and not as endorsement of the companies themselves. Introduction Glass is 100% recyclable. Recycled glass competes with raw material batch and must rely on cost to drive utilization. A wide range of factors affect the cost of cullet to the glass companies. Most surveys (EPA, Container Recycling Institute, GPI) agree that roughly 11 million tons of glass is disposed of each year in the US, and 32-34% of that glass is recycled. Approximately 2.7 million tons were recycled to container glass and 1 million tons to fiberglass in 2017 (Resource Recovery magazine, 2018).
