Why is rechargeable battery recycling important to your Green Initiatives? Universal Waste: Certain battery chemistries required to be recycled (landfill prohibited) Some Components are toxic to environment- cadmium, lead, other metals Recycling infrastructure well established, viable Growth of rechargeable batteries in marketplace > cordless/wireless products Reportable data on another material diverted from disposal Convenient recycling at any location statewide You likely generate more rechargeable batteries than you think

Nickel Cadmium, Nickel Metal Hydride, Nickel Zinc, Lithium Ion, Small Sealed Lead Batteries Used Cell Phones ______________________________________ Examples of Electronics Powered by Rechargeable Batteries Two Way RadiosCell and Cordless Phones Laptop ComputersPortable Power Tools Hand Held ScannersField Monitoring Equipment Exit SignagePower Tools Emergency LightingUPS Computer Backup

Enroll and receive an RBRC site identification number Pre-Paid, pre-addressed boxes (1, 2, 4,or 8 can be ordered) Larger size box holds 40# lbs. Instructions/signage with each box Enroll as many locations as generate batteries Mixing battery chemistries is OK Bag each battery with bags provided or tape terminal end of each battery Seal up full box; hand to UPS driver when making a delivery Begin using backup box UPS pick up at your location for free Automatic box replenishment system Convenient, non-obtrusive program Data available on all shipments

Total Rechargeable Batteries Recovered 6,940,000 lbs. recycled in 2008 Collection of rechargeable batteries increased by 9.6% Millions of Pounds
