Why Recycle?
- Mercury is a toxic metal that is hazardous to both the environment and human health.
- An ounce of mercury contaminates a lake for centuries.
- 100 fluorescent lamps contain approximately 4 grams of mercury.
- Ballasts contain polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB's) which is a hazardous waste.
- Batteries contain heavy metals and corrosive components.
- Computer monitors contain toxic lead in the glass and circuits.
Universal Waste Rule (UWR)
The EPA issued the UWR in 1995 to reduce the amount of hazardous waste items entering municipal solid waste. It encourages recycling and proper disposal of certain wastes. Regulatory and administrative burdens for managing wastes were also streamlined. Numerous states have moved forward with the inclusion of electronic scrap (e-scrap) into the UWR. In addition, numerous states have banned monitors from landfills.
