| 2022 |
Other Environmental Practices: Recycling - Metal recycling Other Environmental Practices: Waste Treatment - Waste treatment to reduce copper outflow to City of Ormond Beach Waste Treatment Other Environmental Practices: General Environmental Management - Copper scrap storage & management using standardized practices to prevent spills and maximize recycling. |
||
| 2021 |
Other Barriers to Source Reduction - Copper waste reduction uses existing recycling stream and waste treatment system. Limited to no opportunity exists to reduce minimal exodus of copper.Prioritized recycling of waste streams including steel drums, aerosol cans, plastic drums & gaylords in 2021. |

The Waste Management Hierarchy |
The waste management hierarchy established by the Pollution Prevention Act (PPA) guides waste generators toward the best options for managing wastes.
The preferred option is to prevent pollution at its source, but for waste that is generated, the preferred management methods are recycling, followed
by burning for energy recovery, treatment and, as a last resort, disposing of the waste.

- A breakdown of production-related waste managed. This includes all amounts of the chemical released directly to the environment or otherwise managed as waste, other than waste generated by one-time events not associated with normal production processes (e.g., fires or remedial actions).
- A production ratio or activity index to provide context for reported toxic chemical quantities. For example, if a chemical is used in the manufacture of refrigerators, the production index would track the number of refrigerators produced and could be used to help gauge how much of the chemical is being released per unit of production.
- Any newly implemented source reduction activities, reported using "W-codes" (e.g., "W41: Increased purity of raw materials")
