Federal Regulations Made Battery Recycling Changed
Federal regulations are forcing some changes to be made to OCRRA’s battery collection program.They will force the agency to separate alkaline, rechargeable,and button batteries.
Previously, anyone who wanted to recycle their old batteries could just throw them in the single-bin provided.However,the new bins, which will be phased in this week,will have three bins with separate slots for alkaline,rechargeable and button batteries,including hearing aid and watch batteries.
Instructions will be at each site explaining what to do in more detail.
