August 2010 Dear Resident:
The Stark-Tuscarawas-Wayne Joint Solid Waste Management District (District) and the Stark County Commissioners would like to thank all residents who have participated in the District’s past Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Collection programs. We would like to inform all residents that instead of having an HHW Collection in 2010, the District is mailing this Recycling & Reuse Guide to every household of Stark County.
Household hazardous waste describes hazardous waste generated at households. The Ohio Administrative Code exempts household hazardous waste from being managed in accordance with hazardous waste regulations.
This
exemption also applied to the District, who collected that household hazardous waste. However, the exemption is not extended to waste generated at schools, universities, farms, churches, doctors, dentists, government facilities, non-profit organizations, hospitals, commercial businesses or manufacturing facilities.
collections, from any of those generators mentioned above, and commingled with household hazardous waste, must be managed as hazardous waste.
In order to continue the collection, our District would have to comply with Ohio EPA recommendations. Given the overwhelming response to our annual Household Hazardous Waste Collections, and our current budget reductions, we are unable to implement those recommendations at this time.
The Stark County Commissioners and our District staff respect and appreciate the commitment our residents have to diverting those items from our landfills.
At the recommendation of our Board of Directors, this Guide was
created to provide every resident with alternatives to landfill disposal of those hazardous and recyclable items. Through research and networking, the District was able to identify recycling resources for 90% of hazardous waste and other material generated at households. The District is exploring the option of a smaller collection event that will provide landfill alternatives, for a small fee, of the remaining 10% of hazardous household items that were not addressed in the Recycling and Reuse Guide. Please visit our website at
www.timetorecycle.org for additional information on those collection events or recycling information. You may also contact our office at (800) 678- 9839.
Thanks to all of you who have contributed to our collection and recycling efforts in the past.
this Guide, is to provide you the opportunity to continue that effort. Thank you,
David J. Held Executive Director
