<br>><br>> I would consider this topic to be a part of an organizations asset<br>> management process. And related to IT assets, whether is be hard<br>> drives, backup tapes, paper, or used batteries from UPS's, disposal is
<br>> one part of that process.<br>><br>> For some facts: "The lead battery industry is the nation's largest user<br>> of lead, consuming 80% of the lead in the country. For 10 consecutive<br>> years, lead acid batteries have topped the list of the most highly
<br>> recycled consumer products with a 96.5% recycling rate in 1996."<br>> [<a href="http://www.batteryrecycling.com/experts.html" target="_blank">http://www.batteryrecycling.com/experts.html</a>]<br>><br>> Your local government is a good place to start when looking for
<br>> recycling information. Kent County as listed places for battery<br>> recycling on their web site at<br>> <a href="http://www.accesskent.com/YourGovernment/PublicWorks/Guide/Batteries.html" target="_blank">
