Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation’S (RBRC) “Charge up to Recycle!” Program for Used Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cd) Batteries E-47 PRESIDENT’S COUNCIL ON SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOP ON EXTENDED PRODUCT RESPONSIBILITY 1. Name and Description of Proiect: The Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation’s (RBRC) “Charge Up to Recycle!” program for used nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries. RBRC is a nonprofit public service corporation dedicated to educating the public as to the need to collect and recycle used Ni-Cd batteries. RBRC also funds and facilitates Ni-Cd recycling programs nationwide in the United States, and soon throughout Canada as well. 2. Proiect Participants: The “Charge Up to Recycle’’ program is funded by over 200 companies worldwide that manufacture rechargeable products for sale into North America (list attached). Key players are the owners of RBRC: Energizer Power Systems, San yo Energy (U.S.A.), Panasonic Industrial Company, Saft America, and Varta ‘Batteries. Other participants include INMETCO, where the batteries are recycled, and numerous consolidation facilities and trucking firms. Batteries are collected from all market sectors including consumers, businesses, public agencies, institutions, etc. 3. Proiect Goals: Used Ni-Cd batteries have been identified by the US. EPA as a principal contributor of the toxic heavy metal cadmium into the solid waste stream. The “Charge Up to Recycle!” program is to educate the public that used Ni-Cd batteries should be recycled, thus reducing environmental risk and conserving natural resources. All parts of the used Ni-Cd battery are recycled and reused. No part re-enters the solid waste stream. 4. Proiect Drivers: Initial Ni-Cd collection was driven by state laws in Minnesota and New Jersey that required industry sponsored and funded collection pilot projects. It became clear to rechargeable product manufacturers that unless a voluntary industry funded program was established nationwide, Ni-Cd batteries would either be banned or subjected to a prohibitive deposit. Once the pilot programs were operational and industry members saw they could be successful, the RBRC program was established and received widespread industry support. 5. Proiect Benefits: In 1995, the first full year of the “Charge Up to Recycle!” program operation, over 15% of the used Ni-Cd batteries available for recycling were recycled. By the year 2000 we hope to attain a recycling rate exceeding 70%, with 100% collection the ultimate goal. In addition to protecting the environment, the program provides significant subsidies to those recycling Ni-Cds. RBRC pays for retail Ni-Cd collection containers, for all shipping back to recycling by retailers, and all Ni-Cd recycling charges. For counties and municipalities, RBRC pays for the shipping back to recycling and all Ni-Cd recycling charges. For businesses and public agencies, RBRC pays for all Ni-Cd recycling charges. RBRC operates a toll free number where anyone can call to find out how and where to recycle Ni-Cds. Call 1-800-8-BATTERY. E-49 6. Proiect Obstacles/Barriers: The most significant obstacle to used Ni-Cd collection are the hazardous waste transportation and manifesting requirements found in RCRA. EPA recognized these obstacles and promulgated the Universal Waste Rule at 40 CFR Part I 273 to remedy the problem. Because Part 273 is deregulatory, each state had to adopt the rule before it took effect. For this reason Congress passed the “Mercury Containing and Rechargeable Battery Management Act” in early 1995, which allowed Part 273 to take effect immediately in all 50 U.S. states. A similar process is underway in Canada. The deregulatory effort in the U.S. took about five years. The free-rider issue has also been a problem in the U.S. and Canada. Today an RBRC recycling fee is paid on over 75% of the new Ni-Cd batteries sold into the U.S. market. This will continue to be an ongoing problem. 7. Project Reviews: Recent project reviews have been conducted by Bette Fishbein of INFORM, Inc., for the University of Tennessee, and by Michael Bender, in Waste Dynamics of the Northeast. The “Charge Up to Recycle!” program has been endorsed by a number of members of Congress, including Rep. Frank Pallone, D-NJ, “This is a good first step in limiting toxic metals in our environment.” 8. Proiect Presenters: The project is presented by Jefferson C.

  • Hoovering the Hoover District, North Canton, Ohio by Lenny Siegel May, 2017
    Hoovering the Hoover District, North Canton, Ohio by Lenny Siegel May, 2017 It is rare that a company dominates an industry to the degree that its name becomes synonymous with the industry. But in watching British period dramas on TV, I have heard people using the term “Hoovering” to describe the use of a vacuum cleaner. The Hoover Company manufactured those famous vacuum cleaners in North Canton, Ohio, for decades, leaving behind a wealth of subsurface contamination, including tetrachloroethylene (PCE) and tri-chloroethylene (TCE). Now the current owner, under supervision from U.S. EPA’s RCRA (Resource Conservation and Recovery Act) program, is beginning a series of cleanup measures that include what is essentially the vacuum cleaning of toxic vapors from the subsurface.1 Western Factory Area from Main Street Background The Hoover property currently consists of 69.5 acres in downtown North Canton, containing 30 buildings with about one million square feet of offices, warehouses, and manufacturing space. Established as a company in 1908, the factory is surrounded by homes, athletic fields, civic buildings, and a church. Its historic brick chimney was recently restored. Hoover, purchased by Maytag in 1989, terminated production there in 2007, selling the property to Maple Street Commerce (MSC) the following year. While many of the former factory 1 Ohio EPA has also been involved at the site, but U.S. EPA is overseeing the vapor intrusion investigation. Hoovering the Hoover District 2 May. 2017 buildings today house businesses, Maple Street has ambitious plans for mixed-use—that is, residential above commercial uses—redevelopment within former manufacturing buildings.
