The ABCs of EPR and OCRRA - Recycling Efforts Unique to Municipalities



Join us Wednesday, November 2, 2011 at 11am ET for a complimentary webinar!

In the first installment of our "Lessons from the Experts" webinar series, Call2Recycle® and guests will discuss the shared responsibility for end-of-life product management and how that falls on the producer, but also on local governments and municipalities. In addition to discussing extended product responsibility (EPR) and recycling efforts unique to municipalities across the country, the webinar will spotlight the Onondaga County Resource Recovery Agency, commonly referred to as OCRRA, and their recycling program for rechargeable batteries. OCRRA is a non-profit public benefit corporation that manages the solid waste for 33 of the 35 municipalities in Onondaga County, New York.

OCRRA manages the County's solid waste through a broad spectrum of waste reduction and recycling efforts. Onondaga County's households and commercial outlets are currently recycling better than 60% of the waste that once was buried in landfills, and that includes rechargeable batteries recycled through Call2Recycle.

Register for this webinar spotlighting the OCRRA rechargeable battery recycling program and learn more about EPR and how a municipality program has made battery recycling convenient for participants as well as saved time and money.
