80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/850-0

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1102-1
00:15:53.490 --> 00:15:54.228
<v Ashley Seaward>call as well.</v>

00:15:59.262 --> 00:16:02.508
<v Ashley Seaward>recommendations.
Our team reviewed it yesterday.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1135-0
00:16:03.148 --> 00:16:06.758
<v Ashley Seaward>I have a couple questions and I'll
sprinkle them throughout the call.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1135-1
00:16:06.758 --> 00:16:09.028
<v Ashley Seaward>So I don't steal the mic for too long
here.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1146-0
00:16:09.068 --> 00:16:14.388
<v Ashley Seaward>But my first question and biggest
reaction to the recommendations thus far.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1178-0
00:16:15.418 --> 00:16:19.081
<v Ashley Seaward>Is that we had a pretty robust
conversation around independent battery</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1178-1
00:16:19.081 --> 00:16:23.054
<v Ashley Seaward>collection during our last meeting,
but I unfortunately did not see anything</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1178-2
00:16:23.054 --> 00:16:26.098
<v Ashley Seaward>concerning that in the recommendations
that were sent out.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1189-0
00:16:26.818 --> 00:16:29.901
<v Ashley Seaward>I was wondering if we could have a little
bit more of a conversation around that</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1189-1
00:16:29.901 --> 00:16:30.738
<v Ashley Seaward>and thoughts about it.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1191-0
00:16:33.828 --> 00:16:34.708
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yeah, we could.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1203-0
00:16:38.118 --> 00:16:40.838
<v Hafner, Courtney>So if you wanna. Yeah, I mean we've any.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1207-0
00:16:40.838 --> 00:16:42.878
<v Hafner, Courtney>What are your thoughts on on that?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1264-0
00:16:45.558 --> 00:16:47.841
<v Ashley Seaward>Yeah.
So my thoughts on that is that</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1264-1
00:16:47.841 --> 00:16:52.777
<v Ashley Seaward>independent battery collection should be
allowed, like I said in our last call,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1264-2
00:16:52.777 --> 00:16:57.034
<v Ashley Seaward>Redwood Materials were not only a
recycler of batteries were battery</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1264-3
00:16:57.034 --> 00:17:00.551
<v Ashley Seaward>recycler world.
So a collector of batteries and we offer</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1264-4
00:17:00.551 --> 00:17:04.068
<v Ashley Seaward>free battery collection for programs
across the country.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1278-0
00:17:04.078 --> 00:17:07.684
<v Ashley Seaward>For the public,
which includes events and then we have a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1278-1
00:17:07.684 --> 00:17:10.278
<v Ashley Seaward>bin that we collect batteries in as well.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1287-0
00:17:11.428 --> 00:17:14.468
<v Ashley Seaward>A lot of these programs to date will
allow.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1327-0
00:17:14.858 --> 00:17:18.988
<v Ashley Seaward>One dependent collection and they have a
specific provision about independent</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1327-1
00:17:18.988 --> 00:17:22.801
<v Ashley Seaward>collection in the EPR program,
but they'll often say that the batteries</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1327-2
00:17:22.801 --> 00:17:25.978
<v Ashley Seaward>have to be forfeited to a battery
stewardship organization.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1365-0
00:17:26.658 --> 00:17:30.733
<v Ashley Seaward>So I'm really just looking for some
clarity and and thoughts on how you all</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1365-1
00:17:30.733 --> 00:17:34.755
<v Ashley Seaward>are feeling because we would prefer
obviously to not forfeit the batteries</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1365-2
00:17:34.755 --> 00:17:39.098
<v Ashley Seaward>that we're collecting on our own dime and
we are more than happy to provide any.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1383-0
00:17:39.868 --> 00:17:42.439
<v Ashley Seaward>Data to the state that's needed on the
batteries that we collect,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1383-1
00:17:42.439 --> 00:17:44.348
<v Ashley Seaward>register with the state as we normally
would do.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1398-0
00:17:45.578 --> 00:17:50.338
<v Ashley Seaward>Or any other standards that we need to
meet, but that's where we're coming from.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1401-0
00:17:51.008 --> 00:17:51.648
<v Hafner, Courtney>All right.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1405-0
00:17:51.648 --> 00:17:52.328
<v Hafner, Courtney>How would you?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1409-0
00:17:52.328 --> 00:17:52.928
<v Hafner, Courtney>I guess so.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1412-0
00:17:52.928 --> 00:17:54.888
<v Hafner, Courtney>How would you see your interaction with?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1419-0
00:17:56.788 --> 00:17:59.828
<v Hafner, Courtney>The the pros that are operating.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1426-0
00:18:02.898 --> 00:18:05.658
<v Ashley Seaward>Ourselves as a compliment to the pros.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1472-0
00:18:06.988 --> 00:18:10.018
<v Ashley Seaward>And we're just aiding and increased
battery collection.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1472-1
00:18:10.018 --> 00:18:14.347
<v Ashley Seaward>So as long as the PRO's in the state is
getting data and they have transparency</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1472-2
00:18:14.347 --> 00:18:17.755
<v Ashley Seaward>on where those batteries are going and
how many are collected,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1472-3
00:18:17.755 --> 00:18:20.028
<v Ashley Seaward>we really see it as a a win win situation.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1484-0
00:18:30.428 --> 00:18:34.348
<v Hafner, Courtney>Ashley,
is there anyone who would like to follow</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1484-1
00:18:34.348 --> 00:18:34.588
<v Hafner, Courtney>up?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1486-0
00:18:36.068 --> 00:18:37.508
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yes, sure.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1504-0
00:18:37.668 --> 00:18:43.948
<v Hafner, Courtney>Have a question from the room when she?
When, Ashley. When you mentioned Ben's.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1512-0
00:18:43.948 --> 00:18:46.268
<v Hafner, Courtney>Like,
we represent a lot of transfer stations.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1520-0
00:18:46.268 --> 00:18:49.628
<v Hafner, Courtney>When you mentioned bins,
what's a collection bin like?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1521-0
00:18:49.708 --> 00:18:51.908
<v Hafner, Courtney>Oh, I'm sorry.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1529-0
00:18:51.908 --> 00:18:52.058
<v Hafner, Courtney>Oh, I'm sorry. My name's Michael Carroll.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1536-0
00:18:52.058 --> 00:18:55.188
<v Hafner, Courtney>I'm the executive director for municipal
Waste hub.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1545-0
00:18:55.188 --> 00:18:58.308
<v Hafner, Courtney>We represent 115 communities for the
municipal solid waste.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1548-0
00:19:00.798 --> 00:19:01.798
<v Ashley Seaward>Nice to meet you, Michael.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1564-0
00:19:03.268 --> 00:19:05.129
<v Ashley Seaward>Well,
actually we're we're lucky for this call</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1564-1
00:19:05.129 --> 00:19:07.148
<v Ashley Seaward>because I do have my colleague Trisha on
the line.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1587-0
00:19:07.148 --> 00:19:11.008
<v Ashley Seaward>Who is the expert in our consumer battery
collection program so she can explain a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1587-1
00:19:11.008 --> 00:19:14.068
<v Ashley Seaward>little bit more detail about our bins and
how our process works?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1591-0
00:19:17.918 --> 00:19:18.838
<v Patricia Dutcher>I guess that's my cue.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1598-0
00:19:21.388 --> 00:19:23.028
<v Patricia Dutcher>Yes, good morning.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1602-0
00:19:23.028 --> 00:19:23.908
<v Patricia Dutcher>Yes, from my side.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1635-0
00:19:23.908 --> 00:19:26.840
<v Patricia Dutcher>I'm out in Nevada,
so perhaps it's good afternoon for you</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1635-1
00:19:26.840 --> 00:19:29.065
<v Patricia Dutcher>guys,
but we do have a variety of different</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1635-2
00:19:29.065 --> 00:19:33.008
<v Patricia Dutcher>collection bins that we use as we're
evolving to make sure that each one is a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1635-3
00:19:33.008 --> 00:19:34.828
<v Patricia Dutcher>safer and safer version. So we have.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1640-0
00:19:36.508 --> 00:19:36.548
<v Patricia Dutcher>A.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1672-0
00:19:36.548 --> 00:19:40.344
<v Patricia Dutcher>Currently,
a metal bin that houses an A vaccine box</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1672-1
00:19:40.344 --> 00:19:46.258
<v Patricia Dutcher>that has a fire retardant spray inside
that allows a collection of up to roughly</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1672-2
00:19:46.258 --> 00:19:46.988
<v Patricia Dutcher>50 lbs of.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1686-0
00:19:47.338 --> 00:19:51.098
<v Patricia Dutcher>Mixed material before it's shipped out
via UPS straight to our facility.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1696-0
00:19:51.138 --> 00:19:55.778
<v Patricia Dutcher>So that means that no collection sites
accumulates too much at anyone time.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1713-0
00:19:56.258 --> 00:20:01.458
<v Patricia Dutcher>We are introducing as a pilot program in
Nevada, our next generation,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1713-1
00:20:01.458 --> 00:20:03.018
<v Patricia Dutcher>which is a smart bin.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1729-0
00:20:03.018 --> 00:20:07.416
<v Patricia Dutcher>It's actually Wi-Fi enabled where we're
able to track it with sensors on how full</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1729-1
00:20:07.416 --> 00:20:07.738
<v Patricia Dutcher>it is.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1730-0
00:20:08.738 --> 00:20:09.898
<v Patricia Dutcher>Temperature readings.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1739-0
00:20:10.218 --> 00:20:12.778
<v Patricia Dutcher>There's kind of an automatic shut off so
people can't add stuff.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1757-0
00:20:12.778 --> 00:20:15.812
<v Patricia Dutcher>But again,
it's gonna have a special permit for a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1757-1
00:20:15.812 --> 00:20:19.818
<v Patricia Dutcher>larger volume of mixed material without
sorting and other things.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1771-0
00:20:19.888 --> 00:20:22.755
<v Patricia Dutcher>So again,
trying to increase the convenience for</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1771-1
00:20:22.755 --> 00:20:26.208
<v Patricia Dutcher>the consumers to drop off will also
increasing the safety.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1775-0
00:20:27.658 --> 00:20:28.098
<v Patricia Dutcher>Layers to it.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1777-0
00:20:32.458 --> 00:20:33.258
<v Hafner, Courtney>Thank you.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1794-0
00:20:37.898 --> 00:20:41.098
<v Ashley Seaward>And quickly,
just to under score once more,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1794-1
00:20:41.098 --> 00:20:45.898
<v Ashley Seaward>independent collectors are not battery
stewardship organizations.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1798-0
00:20:45.938 --> 00:20:46.338
<v Ashley Seaward>I don't.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1802-0
00:20:46.338 --> 00:20:47.778
<v Ashley Seaward>That is a follow-up question.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1820-0
00:20:47.778 --> 00:20:52.458
<v Ashley Seaward>I'd love to ask later to understand if
you're looking for battery stewardship</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1820-1
00:20:52.458 --> 00:20:55.458
<v Ashley Seaward>organizations to be limited to nonprofits
or not.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1837-0
00:20:55.898 --> 00:20:58.789
<v Ashley Seaward>So I can put a pin in that question for
now,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1837-1
00:20:58.789 --> 00:21:02.258
<v Ashley Seaward>but independent collectors are really
just recyclers.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1848-0
00:21:03.138 --> 00:21:06.458
<v Ashley Seaward>And and folks that work with recyclers
that are already doing this work.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1855-0
00:21:07.088 --> 00:21:09.008
<v Ashley Seaward>Looking to continue to do this work.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1878-0
00:21:10.538 --> 00:21:15.386
<v Ashley Seaward>And you know all in the same the same
benefit of Ed Golds that the BSO's and</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1878-1
00:21:15.386 --> 00:21:17.778
<v Ashley Seaward>the state have to increase collection.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1885-0
00:21:17.778 --> 00:21:22.298
<v Ashley Seaward>So it's really just an add to increase
collection, it's not.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1896-0
00:21:23.898 --> 00:21:25.578
<v Ashley Seaward>A whole program similar to a BSO.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1898-0
00:21:25.578 --> 00:21:27.338
<v Ashley Seaward>We're just a a complementary piece.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1905-0
00:21:39.258 --> 00:21:41.738
<v Hafner, Courtney>All right. Robert,
do you have something to add?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1916-0
00:21:42.978 --> 00:21:46.898
<v Burks, Robert R>Hi, Ashley, this is Robert from DEP.
Department of sustainability.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1938-0
00:21:47.138 --> 00:21:51.212
<v Burks, Robert R>I just want to be clear,
you are not against reporting your data</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1938-1
00:21:51.212 --> 00:21:55.098
<v Burks, Robert R>to the State Department of Environmental
Protection, correct?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1944-0
00:21:57.118 --> 00:21:58.438
<v Ashley Seaward>Not at all. We'd love to.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1956-0
00:21:58.438 --> 00:22:01.238
<v Ashley Seaward>We wanna make sure all the collection
golds are being met.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1953-0
00:21:59.578 --> 00:21:59.898
<v Burks, Robert R>OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1955-0
00:22:01.958 --> 00:22:02.278
<v Burks, Robert R>All right.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1957-0
00:22:02.278 --> 00:22:02.998

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1968-0
00:22:21.998 --> 00:22:23.158
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>Sorry about that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1977-0
00:22:23.958 --> 00:22:27.824
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>This is Jennifer Dapolonio from Maine

<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>unit.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1997-0
00:22:29.498 --> 00:22:33.455
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>Speaking of collections,
this may be something that we have to</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/1997-1
00:22:33.455 --> 00:22:37.098
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>discuss internally and also with the

00:22:39.058 --> 00:22:44.651
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>But we in the hazardous waste management

00:22:50.172 --> 00:22:50.898
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>recycling.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2058-0
00:22:51.248 --> 00:22:56.162
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>And they're not on a hazardous waste
manifest or a main U ball.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2058-1
00:22:56.162 --> 00:23:01.997
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>The company needs to submit quarterly
reports under the alternate standards</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2058-2
00:23:01.997 --> 00:23:02.688
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>approval.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2066-0
00:23:04.298 --> 00:23:06.738
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>And they need to apply for that approval
first.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2080-0
00:23:08.228 --> 00:23:12.668
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>So I I don't know how exactly that's
going to dovetail with EPR.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2097-0
00:23:14.058 --> 00:23:16.654
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>And it.
But it also sounds like we need to have a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2097-1
00:23:16.654 --> 00:23:19.978
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>conversation with Redwood after the after
this meeting as well.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2135-0
00:23:24.078 --> 00:23:28.522
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>So that's all I have for now,
but I think we're going to have to have</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2135-1
00:23:28.522 --> 00:23:33.284
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>some conversations about alternate
standards if out-of-state companies are</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2135-2
00:23:33.284 --> 00:23:38.110
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>going to be taking in batteries for
recycling on any paperwork other than a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2135-3
00:23:38.110 --> 00:23:40.078
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>hazardous waste manifesto ball.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2144-0
00:23:42.768 --> 00:23:45.888
<v Ashley Seaward>I'll drop my e-mail in the chat. Jennifer.
So you have it.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2178-0
00:23:45.888 --> 00:23:48.596
<v Ashley Seaward>We would love to connect,
but again to the point,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2178-1
00:23:48.596 --> 00:23:52.984
<v Ashley Seaward>like where recyclers that already doing
this work and we we register with States</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2178-2
00:23:52.984 --> 00:23:56.288
<v Ashley Seaward>and make sure we're abiding by all the
the appropriate laws.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2190-0
00:23:56.288 --> 00:24:02.614
<v Ashley Seaward>But it's definitely interesting throwing
an EPR and having these worlds work in</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2190-1
00:24:02.614 --> 00:24:03.168
<v Ashley Seaward>tandem.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2197-0
00:24:03.168 --> 00:24:05.488
<v Ashley Seaward>So yeah,
looking forward to contacting you.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2196-0
00:24:04.158 --> 00:24:04.438
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2201-0
00:24:05.518 --> 00:24:06.518
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>Yeah, it sounds.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2207-0
00:24:06.518 --> 00:24:09.598
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>It sounds like you and I have to have a
separate conversation. Thank you.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2209-0
00:24:12.458 --> 00:24:13.578
<v Hafner, Courtney>OK, mark.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2245-0
00:24:14.598 --> 00:24:19.100
<v Boolish, Marc>Yeah. Hi, mark. Bullish from Prba,
the Rechargeable Battery Association,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2245-1
00:24:19.100 --> 00:24:23.910
<v Boolish, Marc>I I note in the straw man that and it
doesn't say in there that the there can</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2245-2
00:24:23.910 --> 00:24:24.958
<v Boolish, Marc>be multiple bsos.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2261-0
00:24:24.958 --> 00:24:29.536
<v Boolish, Marc>So that's that's a good thing.
The not-for-profit question is a good one</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2261-1
00:24:29.536 --> 00:24:30.038
<v Boolish, Marc>as well.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2275-0
00:24:30.358 --> 00:24:34.096
<v Boolish, Marc>You know, prba is neutral on that.
The model build that we have actually</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2275-1
00:24:34.096 --> 00:24:35.478
<v Boolish, Marc>doesn't say anything on it.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2283-0
00:24:35.838 --> 00:24:40.478
<v Boolish, Marc>PR OS can be not-for-profit or for profit.
In in our model.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2289-0
00:24:41.738 --> 00:24:43.418
<v Boolish, Marc>The requirement though.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2291-0
00:24:43.418 --> 00:24:45.178
<v Boolish, Marc>You know about the batteries being
reported.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2335-0
00:24:45.568 --> 00:24:50.459
<v Boolish, Marc>Is is only part of the solution,
so if anybody can collect batteries and</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2335-1
00:24:50.459 --> 00:24:54.613
<v Boolish, Marc>then not have state oversight beyond just
the reporting part,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2335-2
00:24:54.613 --> 00:25:00.107
<v Boolish, Marc>that becomes problematic because how does
the state know that those batteries are</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2335-3
00:25:00.107 --> 00:25:01.648
<v Boolish, Marc>being managed properly?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2369-0
00:25:02.168 --> 00:25:06.630
<v Boolish, Marc>So it's an important distinction to make,
and that's that's part of the reason why</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2369-1
00:25:06.630 --> 00:25:10.716
<v Boolish, Marc>there are so many requirements in Bill
language that require that a battery</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2369-2
00:25:10.716 --> 00:25:14.532
<v Boolish, Marc>stewardship organization be approved by
the state. And then of course,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2369-3
00:25:14.532 --> 00:25:17.328
<v Boolish, Marc>have the oversight by the state complete
oversight.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2371-0
00:25:26.498 --> 00:25:26.898
<v Hafner, Courtney>OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2376-0
00:25:26.898 --> 00:25:27.858
<v Hafner, Courtney>Thank you, mark.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2393-0
00:25:27.858 --> 00:25:34.514
<v Hafner, Courtney>So, so Mark, so I guess though,
how would you see just to be kind of</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2393-1
00:25:34.514 --> 00:25:37.698
<v Hafner, Courtney>broad, how would you see Redwood?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2400-0
00:25:39.178 --> 00:25:41.418
<v Hafner, Courtney>A system like redwoods talking about.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2403-0
00:25:42.848 --> 00:25:44.048
<v Hafner, Courtney>Interact with.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2406-0
00:25:45.578 --> 00:25:45.698
<v Hafner, Courtney>ABS.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2408-0
00:25:45.698 --> 00:25:47.458
<v Hafner, Courtney>You know BSO?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2431-0
00:25:50.358 --> 00:25:52.978
<v Boolish, Marc>Well,
much like much like all recyclers do</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2431-1
00:25:52.978 --> 00:25:55.475
<v Boolish, Marc>today,
they enter into agreements with a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2431-2
00:25:55.475 --> 00:25:58.278
<v Boolish, Marc>stewardship organization to manage
batteries.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2428-0
00:25:57.208 --> 00:25:57.688
<v Hafner, Courtney>Good evening.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2441-0
00:25:58.278 --> 00:26:01.598
<v Boolish, Marc>And that agreement could include more
than just the processing.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2441-1
00:26:01.598 --> 00:26:03.518
<v Boolish, Marc>It could include the collection, too.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2443-0
00:26:03.928 --> 00:26:05.168
<v Hafner, Courtney>Right. So.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2455-0
00:26:20.998 --> 00:26:24.678
<v Hafner, Courtney>Hey anyone from Verkle or in the room?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2461-0
00:26:24.718 --> 00:26:26.038
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yeah. So West.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2465-0
00:26:26.038 --> 00:26:29.638
<v Hafner, Courtney>Arnold,
I'm with Terracycle North Coast services.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2474-0
00:26:31.058 --> 00:26:33.418
<v Hafner, Courtney>We currently report all the quantities.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2482-0
00:26:35.418 --> 00:26:37.578
<v Hafner, Courtney>Batteries,
universal waste and whatnot as it is.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2488-0
00:26:39.098 --> 00:26:40.378
<v Hafner, Courtney>So the reporting side of things.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2495-0
00:26:41.978 --> 00:26:43.778
<v Hafner, Courtney>Wouldn't be an issue at all with our
process.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2507-0
00:26:43.778 --> 00:26:46.492
<v Hafner, Courtney>I mean,
we're at majority of these collection</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2507-1
00:26:46.492 --> 00:26:49.738
<v Hafner, Courtney>sites as it is currently and to collect
the batteries.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2514-0
00:26:51.168 --> 00:26:53.848
<v Hafner, Courtney>Just be one other thing we'd take while
we're there.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2535-0
00:26:55.328 --> 00:26:59.100
<v Hafner, Courtney>And again,
that the numbers reported by chemistry,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2535-1
00:26:59.100 --> 00:27:04.648
<v Hafner, Courtney>whether it's, you know algon, lithium ion,
Nicad, nickel, metal lead acid.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2544-0
00:27:06.338 --> 00:27:09.138
<v Hafner, Courtney>We provide that information on the
certificate of recycle.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2548-0
00:27:12.538 --> 00:27:13.818
<v Hafner, Courtney>Ashley, do your response.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2552-0
00:27:16.528 --> 00:27:17.328
<v Ashley Seaward>Right, yeah.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2560-0
00:27:17.368 --> 00:27:20.674
<v Ashley Seaward>And Trisha,
please fill in if we need to fill in</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2560-1
00:27:20.674 --> 00:27:21.888
<v Ashley Seaward>anywhere else but.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2597-0
00:27:23.578 --> 00:27:28.344
<v Ashley Seaward>I would like clear understanding on
because we were more than happy to work</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2597-1
00:27:28.344 --> 00:27:31.604
<v Ashley Seaward>with the BSO,
but we also we do our own independent</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2597-2
00:27:31.604 --> 00:27:36.496
<v Ashley Seaward>collection where we have our own branding.
We do our own education. You know,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2586-0
00:27:33.308 --> 00:27:33.428
<v Burks, Robert R>Hmm.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2597-3
00:27:36.496 --> 00:27:40.258
<v Ashley Seaward>in in the states where we do collection,
we're already Reg.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2616-0
00:27:40.258 --> 00:27:43.994
<v Ashley Seaward>With the state and going through the
proper protocols in those states that</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2616-1
00:27:43.994 --> 00:27:45.738
<v Ashley Seaward>don't have an EPR program in place.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2625-0
00:27:45.968 --> 00:27:48.448
<v Ashley Seaward>It's like these are practices that are
already happening.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2629-0
00:27:50.898 --> 00:27:53.338
<v Ashley Seaward>Apologies, that's one moment.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2636-0
00:27:59.298 --> 00:28:00.138
<v Patricia Dutcher>Yeah, I can.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2648-0
00:28:00.298 --> 00:28:04.143
<v Patricia Dutcher>I can feel a little bit for her.
I guess I'm not really understanding what</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2648-1
00:28:04.143 --> 00:28:05.938
<v Patricia Dutcher>the question is that's being asked.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2661-0
00:28:13.308 --> 00:28:16.953
<v Patricia Dutcher>If it's with regards to the like the
custody of the materials that's being</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2661-1
00:28:16.953 --> 00:28:17.828
<v Patricia Dutcher>collected is that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2665-0
00:28:19.298 --> 00:28:19.938
<v Patricia Dutcher>What we're clarifying?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2670-0
00:28:20.678 --> 00:28:21.998
<v Ashley Seaward>Yeah, that was sorry.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2715-0
00:28:21.998 --> 00:28:26.148
<v Ashley Seaward>My dogs are crazy that that was the
question I was getting AT and and similar</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2715-1
00:28:26.148 --> 00:28:30.193
<v Ashley Seaward>to my point earlier is that a lot of
these programs to date are saying that</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2715-2
00:28:30.193 --> 00:28:32.587
<v Ashley Seaward>sure,
independent collection can't happen so</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2715-3
00:28:32.587 --> 00:28:36.578
<v Ashley Seaward>long as you're meeting specific standards.
But those batteries have to be.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2740-0
00:28:36.578 --> 00:28:40.303
<v Ashley Seaward>Forfeited to a BSO,
so if we're willing to come to the table</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2740-1
00:28:40.303 --> 00:28:44.151
<v Ashley Seaward>and offer a collection on our own dime,
that makes it cheaper.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2740-2
00:28:44.151 --> 00:28:45.678
<v Ashley Seaward>You know for the program.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2753-0
00:28:46.298 --> 00:28:49.016
<v Ashley Seaward>And the state overall,
just having players come in that want to</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2753-1
00:28:49.016 --> 00:28:49.738
<v Ashley Seaward>do this for free.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2763-0
00:28:50.848 --> 00:28:54.168
<v Ashley Seaward>And as long as we're reporting the data,
we see that as a good thing.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2812-0
00:28:55.698 --> 00:28:58.409
<v Ashley Seaward>But if that forfeiture clause is is
included here,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2812-1
00:28:58.409 --> 00:29:01.758
<v Ashley Seaward>you know it doesn't really make sense
that we work with a BSO.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2812-2
00:29:01.758 --> 00:29:05.373
<v Ashley Seaward>We collect the batteries,
but then we have to forfeit the batteries</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2812-3
00:29:05.373 --> 00:29:07.818
<v Ashley Seaward>and then buy the batteries back from the
BSO.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2840-0
00:29:08.338 --> 00:29:12.117
<v Ashley Seaward>And I understand too, being a recycler,
we're in a unique position because it's</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2840-1
00:29:12.117 --> 00:29:15.897
<v Ashley Seaward>not just we're collecting the batteries
and then selling those onto the market.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2840-2
00:29:15.897 --> 00:29:19.298
<v Ashley Seaward>The batteries are are coming to us
because we are the battery recycler.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2855-0
00:29:19.528 --> 00:29:23.947
<v Ashley Seaward>So just trying to understand of how
ownership of the battery is perceived in</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2855-1
00:29:23.947 --> 00:29:24.808
<v Ashley Seaward>this situation.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2880-0
00:29:38.048 --> 00:29:41.222
<v Patricia Dutcher>Yeah,
I guess to clarify and be clear that on</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2880-1
00:29:41.222 --> 00:29:46.328
<v Patricia Dutcher>any of our collection sites too,
we accept all batteries that are put in.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2898-0
00:29:46.328 --> 00:29:51.358
<v Patricia Dutcher>So we bring them back, we sort through,
we're directly recycling the lithium</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2898-1
00:29:51.358 --> 00:29:55.408
<v Patricia Dutcher>material and finding downstream partners
to recycle the rest.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2915-0
00:29:56.938 --> 00:29:59.726
<v Patricia Dutcher>And that can all be reported as part of
it, if that's.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2915-1
00:29:59.726 --> 00:30:01.298
<v Patricia Dutcher>If that's part of the question.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2943-0
00:30:03.818 --> 00:30:08.265
<v Patricia Dutcher>I think that the the idea here though is
that we can streamline the process being</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2943-1
00:30:08.265 --> 00:30:12.496
<v Patricia Dutcher>allowed to collect directly and and be in
the end processor for a lot of that</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2943-2
00:30:12.496 --> 00:30:13.418
<v Patricia Dutcher>material as well.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2951-0
00:30:33.508 --> 00:30:35.268
<v Hafner, Courtney>So I guess sounds like, well, I guess.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2965-0
00:30:37.778 --> 00:30:43.138
<v Hafner, Courtney>People can submit us written comments too,
as to this issue and how.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2967-0
00:30:45.498 --> 00:30:45.658
<v Hafner, Courtney>They.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2981-0
00:30:47.378 --> 00:30:51.055
<v Hafner, Courtney>See it how they could you know,
comments to this to address this.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2981-1
00:30:51.055 --> 00:30:52.058
<v Hafner, Courtney>The issue of this.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2986-0
00:31:06.408 --> 00:31:07.528
<v Hafner, Courtney>So we've got another person.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2992-0
00:31:09.018 --> 00:31:11.498
<v Hafner, Courtney>OK. So Curtis was first.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/2995-0
00:31:13.138 --> 00:31:13.738
<v Hafner, Courtney>All right, Curtis.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3002-0
00:31:14.808 --> 00:31:16.168
<v Curtis Picard>Good afternoon, everybody.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3005-0
00:31:16.448 --> 00:31:17.848
<v Curtis Picard>This is Curtis Picard.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3011-0
00:31:17.848 --> 00:31:19.928
<v Curtis Picard>I run the Retail Association of Maine.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3031-0
00:31:20.368 --> 00:31:25.517
<v Curtis Picard>I wasn't able to attend the first meeting,
so I'm really going off the straw man</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3031-1
00:31:25.517 --> 00:31:28.568
<v Curtis Picard>proposal and just have a couple quick
comments.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3045-0
00:31:30.018 --> 00:31:34.778
<v Curtis Picard>We represent retailers of all different
sizes. I appreciate that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3056-0
00:31:35.098 --> 00:31:38.058
<v Curtis Picard>The collection program is voluntary.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3063-0
00:31:38.058 --> 00:31:40.738
<v Curtis Picard>We certainly would like it to stay
voluntary.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3073-0
00:31:40.778 --> 00:31:44.129
<v Curtis Picard>We do that with other programs in the
ball and the retailers that choose to</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3073-1
00:31:44.129 --> 00:31:44.658
<v Curtis Picard>participate.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3114-0
00:31:45.608 --> 00:31:50.193
<v Curtis Picard>In collection programs,
choose to do so not be mandated,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3114-1
00:31:50.193 --> 00:31:56.065
<v Curtis Picard>but I would say one of the areas of
concern that typically crops up with</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3114-2
00:31:56.065 --> 00:32:02.098
<v Curtis Picard>product recycling is any kind of
compliance burden that's going to fall on</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3114-3
00:32:02.098 --> 00:32:07.568
<v Curtis Picard>retail to determine whether or not a
product is complying with the.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3124-0
00:32:07.568 --> 00:32:11.448
<v Curtis Picard>Program or not,
we think there should be some sort of.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3129-0
00:32:12.618 --> 00:32:14.378
<v Curtis Picard>You know, a really good brand registry.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3141-0
00:32:15.208 --> 00:32:20.168
<v Curtis Picard>A cure window a sell through or I think
in other situations we've had.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3163-0
00:32:22.138 --> 00:32:27.467
<v Curtis Picard>Language where the producer or wholesaler
is able to take the product back and</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3163-1
00:32:27.467 --> 00:32:29.018
<v Curtis Picard>reimburse the retailer.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3192-0
00:32:29.018 --> 00:32:32.009
<v Curtis Picard>So for example,
for retailer made an investment in a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3192-1
00:32:32.009 --> 00:32:35.789
<v Curtis Picard>substantial amount of inventory that is
found to be non compliant.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3192-2
00:32:35.789 --> 00:32:38.498
<v Curtis Picard>The retailer shouldn't be on the hook for
that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3199-0
00:32:39.178 --> 00:32:42.218
<v Curtis Picard>It's up to the producer to make sure
they're participating in this.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3202-0
00:32:44.018 --> 00:32:44.498
<v Curtis Picard>I'm encouraged.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3210-0
00:32:44.498 --> 00:32:46.578
<v Curtis Picard>By what I heard,
because I don't know too much about these.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3218-0
00:32:46.888 --> 00:32:50.568
<v Curtis Picard>Containers,
but one of the areas I think I would be.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3269-0
00:32:52.058 --> 00:32:57.403
<v Curtis Picard>Would have concern for some of the
retailers, is the the potential fire risk?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3269-1
00:32:57.403 --> 00:33:02.473
<v Curtis Picard>So if these containers are fireproof,
I like the idea of them being Wi-Fi</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3269-2
00:33:02.473 --> 00:33:07.338
<v Curtis Picard>connected and with, you know,
a sensor to determine when they're full.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3286-0
00:33:07.338 --> 00:33:10.745
<v Curtis Picard>That's encouraging and helpful.
So I appreciate that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3286-1
00:33:10.745 --> 00:33:14.784
<v Curtis Picard>But if there is going to be multiple
stewardship organizations,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3286-2
00:33:14.784 --> 00:33:16.298
<v Curtis Picard>I think retailers would.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3305-0
00:33:16.608 --> 00:33:22.574
<v Curtis Picard>And consumers would appreciate consistent
branding and standardized standard</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3305-1
00:33:22.574 --> 00:33:25.208
<v Curtis Picard>operating procedures and labeling.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3309-0
00:33:26.898 --> 00:33:27.698
<v Curtis Picard>So I think that's it.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3314-0
00:33:27.858 --> 00:33:29.738
<v Curtis Picard>Just wanted to offer those comments at
this point.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3319-0
00:33:37.068 --> 00:33:38.108
<v Hafner, Courtney>OK, Katie.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3347-0
00:33:38.108 --> 00:33:40.880
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yes,
I guess I would just send me if in the</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3347-1
00:33:40.880 --> 00:33:45.037
<v Hafner, Courtney>case of multiple PR OS,
I do see them being coordinated effort to</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3347-2
00:33:45.037 --> 00:33:48.628
<v Hafner, Courtney>kind of like the way,
although there's only two the way.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3350-0
00:33:50.098 --> 00:33:50.658
<v Hafner, Courtney>Pharmaceutical.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3355-0
00:33:52.978 --> 00:33:54.178
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yeah, pharmaceutical.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3362-0
00:33:56.498 --> 00:33:56.778
<v Hafner, Courtney>R PR PRP.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3375-0
00:33:57.018 --> 00:34:00.698
<v Hafner, Courtney>Sorry, I'm going back to my old days.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3377-0
00:34:00.738 --> 00:34:04.418
<v Hafner, Courtney>The pharmaceutical PRM's are doing it.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3381-0
00:34:03.168 --> 00:34:05.448
<v Curtis Picard>Take back the payback. Yeah, yeah.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3383-0
00:34:05.118 --> 00:34:07.318
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yeah, great. Yeah.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3404-0
00:34:08.818 --> 00:34:13.027
<v Hafner, Courtney>That would be,
I foresee a robust coordination between</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3404-1
00:34:13.027 --> 00:34:17.618
<v Hafner, Courtney>if there's multiple PR OS to have one
system for the state.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3406-0
00:34:21.158 --> 00:34:21.838
<v Hafner, Courtney>Thanks Curtis.</v>

00:34:23.338 --> 00:34:24.258
<v Hafner, Courtney>Katie's up.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3429-0
00:34:27.008 --> 00:34:29.874

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3467-0
00:34:32.848 --> 00:34:37.454
<v Katie Reilly>We're North America's largest technology
trade association and we represent the</v>

00:34:37.454 --> 00:34:41.715
<v Katie Reilly>companies that have supported the
electronics EPR program there in Maine.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3467-2
00:34:41.715 --> 00:34:45.458
<v Katie Reilly>I think I was pulling the stats yesterday
and it's over 100,000,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3467-3
00:34:45.458 --> 00:34:49.374
<v Katie Reilly>000 lbs of electronics that our Members
have responsibly supported.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3467-4
00:34:49.374 --> 00:34:50.698
<v Katie Reilly>The collection and rec.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3472-0
00:34:51.008 --> 00:34:52.408
<v Katie Reilly>Of there in the state of Maine.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3488-0
00:34:53.448 --> 00:34:58.608
<v Katie Reilly>I do have kind of one comment with maybe
a question as well and one question.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3491-0
00:34:58.608 --> 00:34:59.968
<v Katie Reilly>So I'll start with a comment.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3514-0
00:35:00.528 --> 00:35:04.372
<v Katie Reilly>We're kind of hyper focused on battery
embedded products and how those may or</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3514-1
00:35:04.372 --> 00:35:06.688
<v Katie Reilly>may not be handled as part of this
discussion.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3553-0
00:35:06.688 --> 00:35:11.633
<v Katie Reilly>So we definitely were heartened to see
that there would be additional evaluation</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3553-1
00:35:11.633 --> 00:35:16.333
<v Katie Reilly>and development around how best to handle
battery embedded products from our</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3553-2
00:35:16.333 --> 00:35:19.385
<v Katie Reilly>perspective,
kind of the scope of the category of</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3553-3
00:35:19.385 --> 00:35:21.888
<v Katie Reilly>battery embedded products is still being.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3563-0
00:35:22.288 --> 00:35:24.128
<v Katie Reilly>Sort of figure it out and determined.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3583-0
00:35:24.288 --> 00:35:27.459
<v Katie Reilly>We know it's a really vast and diverse
set of products,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3583-1
00:35:27.459 --> 00:35:30.008
<v Katie Reilly>everything from consumer electronics,
right?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3599-0
00:35:30.008 --> 00:35:34.008
<v Katie Reilly>To light up tennis shoes to gardening and
lawn equipment, to vaping products.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3642-0
00:35:34.128 --> 00:35:38.602
<v Katie Reilly>So we appreciate DEP's reference to the
studies that are happening elsewhere in</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3642-1
00:35:38.602 --> 00:35:42.182
<v Katie Reilly>several other states,
and we definitely support that additional</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3642-2
00:35:42.182 --> 00:35:46.153
<v Katie Reilly>dialogue and evaluation is needed,
and we hope that would happen via a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3642-3
00:35:46.153 --> 00:35:50.291
<v Katie Reilly>stakeholder process that's specific to
Maine to really determine if these</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3642-4
00:35:50.291 --> 00:35:51.298
<v Katie Reilly>products fit into.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3666-0
00:35:51.298 --> 00:35:54.634
<v Katie Reilly>An existing,
you know EPR program or collection and</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3666-1
00:35:54.634 --> 00:35:59.510
<v Katie Reilly>recycling infrastructure or if there are
unique needs based on the specific</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3666-2
00:35:59.510 --> 00:36:00.408
<v Katie Reilly>product types.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3685-0
00:36:00.408 --> 00:36:04.195
<v Katie Reilly>So like for example we know that
electronics recyclers don't want vaping</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3685-1
00:36:04.195 --> 00:36:07.048
<v Katie Reilly>products in their facilities for a
variety of reasons.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3701-0
00:36:07.128 --> 00:36:10.045
<v Katie Reilly>Or lawn equipment.
They may have gasoline present that</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3701-1
00:36:10.045 --> 00:36:11.848
<v Katie Reilly>creates another set of challenges.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3725-0
00:36:11.848 --> 00:36:16.493
<v Katie Reilly>So we do know other jurisdictions are
looking at evaluation and phased in</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3725-1
00:36:16.493 --> 00:36:20.888
<v Katie Reilly>approaches kind of via small groupings of
similar product categories.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3762-0
00:36:20.888 --> 00:36:25.360
<v Katie Reilly>That's happening in Quebec right now.
So just I guess the comment that we</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3762-1
00:36:25.360 --> 00:36:29.650
<v Katie Reilly>appreciate that main DEP wants to be
thoughtful and kind of look at an</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3762-2
00:36:29.650 --> 00:36:33.215
<v Katie Reilly>evaluation process.
Maybe the question here is what is DEP</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3762-3
00:36:33.215 --> 00:36:34.968
<v Katie Reilly>envisioning for that process?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3798-0
00:36:35.128 --> 00:36:39.690
<v Katie Reilly>Is that kind of going to be incorporated
as part of the legislation that</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3798-1
00:36:39.690 --> 00:36:42.628
<v Katie Reilly>presumably will come from the Straw Man
draft,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3798-2
00:36:42.628 --> 00:36:47.128
<v Katie Reilly>or is that something that will be
addressed in like future EPR reports?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3801-0
00:36:47.778 --> 00:36:48.098
<v Katie Reilly>And future.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3812-0
00:36:48.538 --> 00:36:50.938
<v Katie Reilly>Just kind of DEP LED discussions over the
next several years.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3832-0
00:36:52.388 --> 00:36:55.533
<v Hafner, Courtney>At this time,
I'd like it to be in the legislation</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3832-1
00:36:55.533 --> 00:36:58.308
<v Hafner, Courtney>itself,
in some type of way that we address.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3844-0
00:37:00.098 --> 00:37:03.683
<v Hafner, Courtney>Basically,
I guess the term would be kind of develop</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3844-1
00:37:03.683 --> 00:37:04.698
<v Hafner, Courtney>an on ramp for.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3862-0
00:37:06.978 --> 00:37:12.267
<v Hafner, Courtney>Embedded battery products and I and I.
And I'll be honest, I'm kind of,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3862-1
00:37:12.267 --> 00:37:15.058
<v Hafner, Courtney>we're still kind of working as to how.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3874-0
00:37:16.698 --> 00:37:20.158
<v Hafner, Courtney>Working on how that approach would
actually look in writing in the</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3874-1
00:37:20.158 --> 00:37:20.778
<v Hafner, Courtney>legislation.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3884-0
00:37:21.528 --> 00:37:26.808
<v Hafner, Courtney>So if there are any,
anyone has any proposals?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3897-0
00:37:28.378 --> 00:37:31.458
<v Hafner, Courtney>Feel free to submit them, but I mean,
we do know that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3904-0
00:37:31.578 --> 00:37:35.258
<v Hafner, Courtney>I mean that they are an issue that we
want to address, so.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3927-0
00:37:36.898 --> 00:37:40.885
<v Hafner, Courtney>Whether or not there's a staggered
approach where we somehow work</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3927-1
00:37:40.885 --> 00:37:43.724
<v Hafner, Courtney>legislatively,
stay where we we come up with a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3927-2
00:37:43.724 --> 00:37:45.778
<v Hafner, Courtney>categorization system and address.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3936-0
00:37:47.618 --> 00:37:50.218
<v Hafner, Courtney>Address products category by category.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3940-0
00:37:50.608 --> 00:37:52.128
<v Hafner, Courtney>And where they might fit.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3955-0
00:37:53.618 --> 00:38:00.498
<v Hafner, Courtney>With maybe a some type of calendar kind
of to to kind of lock that process in.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3978-0
00:38:02.108 --> 00:38:05.045
<v Katie Reilly>OK.
And that would be adep spearheaded</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3978-1
00:38:05.045 --> 00:38:09.188
<v Katie Reilly>stakeholder process or DEP just doing
that on its own?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3974-0
00:38:07.138 --> 00:38:07.738
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yeah.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3984-0
00:38:09.218 --> 00:38:13.258
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yeah,
that would be adep spearheaded process.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3986-0
00:38:14.318 --> 00:38:15.678
<v Katie Reilly>OK, OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3998-0
00:38:17.138 --> 00:38:19.194
<v Katie Reilly>Yeah,
we'll put together some thoughts around</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/3998-1
00:38:19.194 --> 00:38:19.418
<v Katie Reilly>this.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4032-0
00:38:19.418 --> 00:38:21.626
<v Katie Reilly>You know,
it's something that we've very much</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4032-1
00:38:21.626 --> 00:38:24.554
<v Katie Reilly>thought about. You know,
there may be compatibility with the</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4032-2
00:38:24.554 --> 00:38:27.914
<v Katie Reilly>electronics recycling system or structure
there for certain products,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4032-3
00:38:27.914 --> 00:38:31.562
<v Katie Reilly>but definitely not everything with an
embedded battery is going to fit into</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4032-4
00:38:31.562 --> 00:38:32.138
<v Katie Reilly>that system.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4039-0
00:38:32.138 --> 00:38:36.578
<v Katie Reilly>So thank you. And then my other question.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4055-0
00:38:38.218 --> 00:38:40.944
<v Katie Reilly>So in this section around covered
products,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4055-1
00:38:40.944 --> 00:38:44.538
<v Katie Reilly>you noted that producers of products that
have batteries.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4095-0
00:38:44.888 --> 00:38:50.514
<v Katie Reilly>Is included in sale would be within scope
is that I want to clarify is that that</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4095-1
00:38:50.514 --> 00:38:55.863
<v Katie Reilly>the producer of a product that has a
removable battery pays into the program</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4095-2
00:38:55.863 --> 00:39:00.031
<v Katie Reilly>for the batteries that are included in
sale of the product,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4095-3
00:39:00.031 --> 00:39:02.948
<v Katie Reilly>but the product itself is not required to.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4108-0
00:39:02.938 --> 00:39:06.248
<v Katie Reilly>Be covered in the be collected in the
system. Is that correct?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4114-0
00:39:06.628 --> 00:39:07.588
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yes, that's correct.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4131-0
00:39:07.588 --> 00:39:11.629
<v Hafner, Courtney>The product is the remote and like in the
case of a remote control,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4115-0
00:39:07.738 --> 00:39:07.898
<v Katie Reilly>OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4131-1
00:39:11.629 --> 00:39:13.828
<v Hafner, Courtney>the remote control would be included.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4140-0
00:39:13.828 --> 00:39:15.948
<v Hafner, Courtney>Just the batteries that come with it.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4137-0
00:39:16.188 --> 00:39:16.548
<v Katie Reilly>OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4154-0
00:39:16.548 --> 00:39:20.843
<v Katie Reilly>So the producer of that product would pay
into the system for the battery that</v>

00:39:20.843 --> 00:39:22.148
<v Katie Reilly>accompanies that remote.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4168-0
00:39:22.148 --> 00:39:24.124
<v Katie Reilly>The battery can be collected through the
system,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4168-1
00:39:24.124 --> 00:39:27.068
<v Katie Reilly>but it's not mandating the collection of
the rest of the remote control.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4171-0
00:39:28.888 --> 00:39:29.608
<v Hafner, Courtney>Correct.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4172-0
00:39:29.918 --> 00:39:30.278
<v Katie Reilly>OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4176-0
00:39:30.318 --> 00:39:30.798
<v Katie Reilly>Thank you.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4189-0
00:39:30.798 --> 00:39:34.638
<v Katie Reilly>Just wanted to confirm that's how most of
the battery stewardship laws operate.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4194-0
00:39:34.638 --> 00:39:36.678
<v Katie Reilly>So just wanted to confirm that's the case
here.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4198-0
00:39:36.678 --> 00:39:37.278
<v Katie Reilly>Thank you very much.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4200-0
00:39:37.058 --> 00:39:38.218
<v Hafner, Courtney>Sure. Yeah.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4234-0
00:39:38.218 --> 00:39:43.204
<v Hafner, Courtney>And I guess the two would like the
comments like which you know of the</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4234-1
00:39:43.204 --> 00:39:49.103
<v Hafner, Courtney>product, what what I don't wanna say this,
if you have a proposal for the different</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4234-2
00:39:49.103 --> 00:39:53.738
<v Hafner, Courtney>categories of products with embedded
batteries which would which?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4257-0
00:39:55.418 --> 00:39:58.362
<v Hafner, Courtney>Would,
which makes sense to include with a,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4257-1
00:39:58.362 --> 00:40:03.647
<v Hafner, Courtney>which would make sense to include in a
current e-waste program that would then</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4257-2
00:40:03.647 --> 00:40:06.858
<v Hafner, Courtney>of course need to be expanded to include
those.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4270-0
00:40:07.568 --> 00:40:13.688
<v Hafner, Courtney>And which products are such that really
should have their own standalone?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4272-0
00:40:15.198 --> 00:40:15.798
<v Hafner, Courtney>Program.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4278-0
00:40:17.038 --> 00:40:17.878
<v Katie Reilly>Sure we can.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4320-0
00:40:17.878 --> 00:40:22.139
<v Katie Reilly>We can discuss that with our Members.
You all have a very unique structure</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4320-1
00:40:22.139 --> 00:40:25.207
<v Katie Reilly>there in Maine for how your e-waste
program operates,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4320-2
00:40:25.207 --> 00:40:29.810
<v Katie Reilly>including some brand sorting that kind of
adds some some cost into the system as</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4320-3
00:40:29.810 --> 00:40:32.878
<v Katie Reilly>sort of a structure.
We've moved away from and a lot.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4354-0
00:40:33.148 --> 00:40:36.930
<v Katie Reilly>State electronics CPR programs,
but happy to give some thought to that</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4354-1
00:40:36.930 --> 00:40:40.977
<v Katie Reilly>and maybe do a sit down with DEP to talk
further about the goals around the</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4354-2
00:40:40.977 --> 00:40:43.108
<v Katie Reilly>electronics EPR program into the future.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4359-0
00:40:43.778 --> 00:40:45.458
<v Hafner, Courtney>Sure, Freddie.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4360-0
00:40:46.018 --> 00:40:46.898
<v Katie Reilly>Thank you.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4365-0
00:40:48.028 --> 00:40:49.228
<v Hafner, Courtney>Next up is Brett.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4375-0
00:40:50.938 --> 00:40:52.749
<v Brett Scott>Yes,
my name is Brett Scott from Haven</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4375-1
00:40:52.749 --> 00:40:53.538
<v Brett Scott>Management group.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4423-0
00:40:53.538 --> 00:40:59.222
<v Brett Scott>I just want to bring up my concern as a
chain retailer in terms of if there's an</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4423-1
00:40:59.222 --> 00:41:02.380
<v Brett Scott>Ave.
for the retailer to serve as ultimately</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4423-2
00:41:02.380 --> 00:41:08.135
<v Brett Scott>the person to take responsibility for the
being a part of the stewardship program</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4423-3
00:41:08.135 --> 00:41:11.644
<v Brett Scott>for select products.
I'm concerned about smaller,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4423-4
00:41:11.644 --> 00:41:13.258
<v Brett Scott>more fragmented indust.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4471-0
00:41:14.018 --> 00:41:18.627
<v Brett Scott>In which you know we don't have
traditional distribution channels of</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4471-1
00:41:18.627 --> 00:41:23.971
<v Brett Scott>where you can reach the manufacturer or
in a way that the Manu are large enough</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4471-2
00:41:23.971 --> 00:41:27.913
<v Brett Scott>or to be able to actually care to partake
in this program.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4471-3
00:41:27.913 --> 00:41:32.188
<v Brett Scott>And I'm just concerned about a lot of
smaller retailers having.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4505-0
00:41:32.188 --> 00:41:35.681
<v Brett Scott>A lot of products that the manufacturers
are not willing to partake,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4505-1
00:41:35.681 --> 00:41:38.162
<v Brett Scott>and at least if we have the option to,
you know,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4505-2
00:41:38.162 --> 00:41:41.908
<v Brett Scott>handle that for those products that are
being sold out of our own stores.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4556-0
00:41:41.908 --> 00:41:46.092
<v Brett Scott>But I think of things like gift shops
throughout the state. I think of,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4556-1
00:41:46.092 --> 00:41:48.939
<v Brett Scott>you know, surplus retailers that have,
you know,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4556-2
00:41:48.939 --> 00:41:53.529
<v Brett Scott>fragmented inventory coming in that the
manufacturer isn't going to care about</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4556-3
00:41:53.529 --> 00:41:56.783
<v Brett Scott>registering even hardware stores,
discount tool stores,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4556-4
00:41:56.783 --> 00:41:59.398
<v Brett Scott>just a lot of Main Street businesses in
bus.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4572-0
00:41:59.398 --> 00:42:02.308
<v Brett Scott>Like my own,
where I think it'd be very challenging to</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4572-1
00:42:02.308 --> 00:42:03.948
<v Brett Scott>get the manufacturers on board.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4614-0
00:42:03.948 --> 00:42:06.647
<v Brett Scott>You know,
we as a retailer want to do the right</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4614-1
00:42:06.647 --> 00:42:09.403
<v Brett Scott>thing,
but this is going to restrict the product</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4614-2
00:42:09.403 --> 00:42:13.734
<v Brett Scott>availability that we're able to offer.
And I also feel by offering that Ave.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4614-3
00:42:13.734 --> 00:42:18.346
<v Brett Scott>it'll allow the program itself to be more
successful because even things like you</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4614-4
00:42:18.346 --> 00:42:18.908
<v Brett Scott>know this.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4620-0
00:42:18.908 --> 00:42:20.588
<v Brett Scott>Mentions online and I think about.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4665-0
00:42:20.788 --> 00:42:23.650
<v Brett Scott>Sellers on Amazon that maybe just a mom
and pop business,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4665-1
00:42:23.650 --> 00:42:26.856
<v Brett Scott>but they're just a reseller selling
through Amazon and you know,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4665-2
00:42:26.856 --> 00:42:30.458
<v Brett Scott>at least that way there. You know,
there's somebody that really is being</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4665-3
00:42:30.458 --> 00:42:33.813
<v Brett Scott>held responsible that if these products
are coming into the market,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4665-4
00:42:33.813 --> 00:42:34.948
<v Brett Scott>this person is respons.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4679-0
00:42:35.148 --> 00:42:39.668
<v Brett Scott>For it,
unless the manufacturer is is handling it.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4698-0
00:42:39.668 --> 00:42:43.602
<v Brett Scott>So I just would love to see some Ave.
to be able to basically cover those</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4698-1
00:42:43.602 --> 00:42:47.749
<v Brett Scott>products that are not a part of this.
So we don't lose the option to sell the</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4698-2
00:42:47.749 --> 00:42:48.228
<v Brett Scott>products.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4710-0
00:42:51.988 --> 00:42:57.060
<v Hafner, Courtney>OK.
I mean in some ways that brings up the</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4710-1
00:42:57.060 --> 00:42:58.948
<v Hafner, Courtney>issue of I mean.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4715-0
00:43:00.438 --> 00:43:00.718
<v Hafner, Courtney>If a if.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4734-0
00:43:00.718 --> 00:43:05.456
<v Hafner, Courtney>A product's not if a product's not
covered then it's getting into the system</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4734-1
00:43:05.456 --> 00:43:08.718
<v Hafner, Courtney>and it's basically free riding into that
system. So.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4741-0
00:43:10.878 --> 00:43:13.158
<v Hafner, Courtney>I guess we'd have to, you know.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4740-0
00:43:12.708 --> 00:43:13.028
<v Brett Scott>OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4759-0
00:43:15.628 --> 00:43:17.661
<v Brett Scott>Brian,
I guess my point is that like as a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4759-1
00:43:17.661 --> 00:43:20.129
<v Brett Scott>retailer,
I'd be willing to take on that financial</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4759-2
00:43:20.129 --> 00:43:20.468
<v Brett Scott>burden.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4777-0
00:43:20.468 --> 00:43:24.428
<v Brett Scott>So it's not being a free rider,
it's just that that product, you know,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4777-1
00:43:24.428 --> 00:43:28.668
<v Brett Scott>can't be sold anywhere unless the
retailer's taking on that responsibility.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4782-0
00:43:28.668 --> 00:43:31.148
<v Brett Scott>For what they're selling out of their
store.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4783-0
00:43:31.868 --> 00:43:32.268
<v Hafner, Courtney>OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4787-0
00:43:40.428 --> 00:43:42.028
<v Hafner, Courtney>Ashley, do you have a response?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4802-0
00:43:45.418 --> 00:43:49.586
<v Ashley Seaward>I had a question going back to the
multiple battery stewardship</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4802-1
00:43:49.586 --> 00:43:50.498
<v Ashley Seaward>organizations.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4815-0
00:43:51.878 --> 00:43:54.998
<v Ashley Seaward>Did you want to take another second to
keep talking about Brett's question or</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4815-1
00:43:54.998 --> 00:43:55.958
<v Ashley Seaward>can I start a new topic?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4830-0
00:43:59.018 --> 00:44:02.258
<v Hafner, Courtney>I think I think it's just something we'll
we'll note how.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4837-0
00:44:02.258 --> 00:44:05.018
<v Hafner, Courtney>I guess that's something that's come up
and we'll note how we would.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4840-0
00:44:07.798 --> 00:44:08.838
<v Hafner, Courtney>How products?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4843-0
00:44:10.698 --> 00:44:12.058
<v Hafner, Courtney>Coming into the.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4847-0
00:44:13.638 --> 00:44:14.518
<v Hafner, Courtney>They have.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4851-0
00:44:14.518 --> 00:44:16.558
<v Hafner, Courtney>They might have that interaction might
work.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4853-0
00:44:18.228 --> 00:44:18.588
<v Brett Scott>Thank you.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4855-0
00:44:22.608 --> 00:44:22.968
<v Hafner, Courtney>OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4858-0
00:44:22.968 --> 00:44:23.688
<v Hafner, Courtney>Go ahead, Ashley.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4860-0
00:44:24.678 --> 00:44:25.358
<v Ashley Seaward>Thank you.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4892-0
00:44:26.838 --> 00:44:33.519
<v Ashley Seaward>So my question is or beginning statement
is that we we are supportive of the PRBA</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4892-1
00:44:33.519 --> 00:44:40.038
<v Ashley Seaward>model for not having battery stewardship
organizations be limited to nonprofit?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4922-0
00:44:40.038 --> 00:44:42.478
<v Ashley Seaward>So if that is something you're
considering,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4922-1
00:44:42.478 --> 00:44:46.637
<v Ashley Seaward>we we are favorable towards that and we
also appreciate that the the draft</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4922-2
00:44:46.637 --> 00:44:50.242
<v Ashley Seaward>language sent around so far
recommendations states that multiple</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4922-3
00:44:50.242 --> 00:44:53.958
<v Ashley Seaward>battery stewardship organizations can
coordinate with one another.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4934-0
00:44:55.828 --> 00:44:59.508
<v Ashley Seaward>Our team is looking for a little bit more
clarity on coordination.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4971-0
00:44:59.748 --> 00:45:02.903
<v Ashley Seaward>Specifically,
we're advocating that battery stewardship</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4971-1
00:45:02.903 --> 00:45:05.607
<v Ashley Seaward>organizations,
if multiple of them are allowed,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4971-2
00:45:05.607 --> 00:45:09.776
<v Ashley Seaward>that they can collectively work together
to achieve statewide convenience</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4971-3
00:45:09.776 --> 00:45:14.001
<v Ashley Seaward>standards as opposed to each battery
stewardship organization individually</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4971-4
00:45:14.001 --> 00:45:18.114
<v Ashley Seaward>having to meet the same convenience
standards and being charged the same</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4971-5
00:45:18.114 --> 00:45:18.508
<v Ashley Seaward>amount.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4983-0
00:45:19.318 --> 00:45:23.398
<v Ashley Seaward>To submit a battery stewardship plan or
any other fees to the state.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/4995-0
00:45:24.948 --> 00:45:30.348
<v Ashley Seaward>So I can pause there if you have any
questions, but we're looking for.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5012-0
00:45:32.118 --> 00:45:36.556
<v Ashley Seaward>Multiple battery storage organizations to
collectively work together as opposed to</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5012-1
00:45:36.556 --> 00:45:37.518
<v Ashley Seaward>just coordinating.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5020-0
00:45:39.118 --> 00:45:41.198
<v Ashley Seaward>But I'm not quite sure what your
definition of coordinating is.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5027-0
00:45:43.068 --> 00:45:45.148
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yeah, but we have enough staff for that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5053-0
00:45:45.748 --> 00:45:52.148
<v Hafner, Courtney>Well, I mean well, I guess, I mean, yeah,
I guess to be we,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5053-1
00:45:52.148 --> 00:46:00.148
<v Hafner, Courtney>I guess the whole question of of how the
how the if there's multiple bsos.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5060-0
00:46:01.758 --> 00:46:03.238
<v Hafner, Courtney>How? What is the level of?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5076-0
00:46:05.078 --> 00:46:12.118
<v Hafner, Courtney>Of coordination that we would want to not
impose is the right word, but we.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5086-0
00:46:12.998 --> 00:46:18.438
<v Hafner, Courtney>Would require and I guess that's
something we would look be looking for.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5091-0
00:46:20.358 --> 00:46:21.998
<v Hafner, Courtney>Assist with defining.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5104-0
00:46:24.558 --> 00:46:27.998
<v Ashley Seaward>And really quickly,
just under score as well.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5146-0
00:46:28.518 --> 00:46:31.141
<v Ashley Seaward>You know,
multiple battery stewardship</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5146-1
00:46:31.141 --> 00:46:36.184
<v Ashley Seaward>organizations that may allow for a
producer to represent the the their own</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5146-2
00:46:36.184 --> 00:46:40.622
<v Ashley Seaward>selves if they'd like to or you know,
a group of three producers.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5146-3
00:46:40.622 --> 00:46:46.204
<v Ashley Seaward>It's just it's a little inequitable for a
BSO that has maybe 50 producers versus a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5146-4
00:46:46.204 --> 00:46:47.078
<v Ashley Seaward>BSO that has.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5160-0
00:46:47.078 --> 00:46:50.838
<v Ashley Seaward>3 producers or a singular producer to all
be expected to meet the same.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5169-0
00:46:51.518 --> 00:46:53.718
<v Ashley Seaward>Convenience standards and if they could
work collectively, it would.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5172-0
00:46:54.268 --> 00:46:55.108
<v Ashley Seaward>It would.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5193-0
00:46:55.268 --> 00:47:01.422
<v Ashley Seaward>It would support a multiple BSO model as
opposed to each group having to meet the</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5193-1
00:47:01.422 --> 00:47:02.548
<v Ashley Seaward>same standards.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5208-0
00:47:02.548 --> 00:47:06.164
<v Ashley Seaward>That really just pushes everybody to do a
single stewardship model,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5208-1
00:47:06.164 --> 00:47:07.228
<v Ashley Seaward>if that makes sense.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5206-0
00:47:06.538 --> 00:47:07.258
<v Hafner, Courtney>Hi guy.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5215-0
00:47:07.258 --> 00:47:09.378
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yeah,
I got to know what you're saying now. Now.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5220-0
00:47:09.378 --> 00:47:13.258
<v Hafner, Courtney>Sorry, yeah,
making so like having a statewide.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5236-0
00:47:14.718 --> 00:47:19.484
<v Hafner, Courtney>Having multiple the multiple bsos work
towards the statewide convenience</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5236-1
00:47:19.484 --> 00:47:20.398
<v Hafner, Courtney>standard, say.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5243-0
00:47:22.078 --> 00:47:23.918
<v Hafner, Courtney>As opposed to each one replicating.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5245-0
00:47:25.598 --> 00:47:26.478
<v Hafner, Courtney>Collection points.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5248-0
00:47:28.158 --> 00:47:28.958
<v Ashley Seaward>Exactly.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5251-0
00:47:28.798 --> 00:47:30.318
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yeah, I gotcha. Yeah.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5255-0
00:47:39.708 --> 00:47:41.708
<v Hafner, Courtney>Nothing from the Internet right now.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5258-0
00:47:41.708 --> 00:47:42.908
<v Hafner, Courtney>Anything from the table?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5268-0
00:47:44.358 --> 00:47:48.118
<v Hafner, Courtney>I have something I just at the first
meeting. Mike and Carol again.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5273-0
00:47:51.558 --> 00:47:53.238
<v Hafner, Courtney>So in our experience.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5288-0
00:47:55.158 --> 00:47:58.165
<v Hafner, Courtney>I mean,
we definitely support this as we see how</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5288-1
00:47:58.165 --> 00:48:00.558
<v Hafner, Courtney>how things stand out in our experience.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5297-0
00:48:00.558 --> 00:48:04.678
<v Hafner, Courtney>This stuff's in the garbage right now and
it's can be combustible.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5307-0
00:48:04.758 --> 00:48:08.838
<v Hafner, Courtney>But garbage is really wet,
so we tend to see it smolder for a while.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5343-0
00:48:09.228 --> 00:48:14.202
<v Hafner, Courtney>Well, and have time to attend to it.
If these are being collected separately</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5343-1
00:48:14.202 --> 00:48:18.594
<v Hafner, Courtney>and like we're we're we're promoting this
to our transfer stations,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5343-2
00:48:18.594 --> 00:48:23.761
<v Hafner, Courtney>I really like the sound of a fireproof
box because I think if they're collected</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5343-3
00:48:23.761 --> 00:48:27.508
<v Hafner, Courtney>in now that they're collected together
and dry and every.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5356-0
00:48:27.508 --> 00:48:32.188
<v Hafner, Courtney>Else the chance of something being
combustible and spreading a lot quicker.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5364-0
00:48:33.718 --> 00:48:35.758
<v Hafner, Courtney>Is not like when we're seeing it in the
garbage.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5372-0
00:48:35.758 --> 00:48:37.758
<v Hafner, Courtney>Garbage is really, really wet,
and there's lots of it.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5412-0
00:48:38.828 --> 00:48:44.076
<v Hafner, Courtney>And so we can tend to get to it where if
you're throwing these in a bin that's on</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5412-1
00:48:44.076 --> 00:48:47.340
<v Hafner, Courtney>top of a pallet and they crack and and
start fire,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5412-2
00:48:47.340 --> 00:48:52.396
<v Hafner, Courtney>that's all plastic in that bin that I
think is a lot drier and it could spread</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5412-3
00:48:52.396 --> 00:48:53.548
<v Hafner, Courtney>much more quickly.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5442-0
00:48:53.548 --> 00:48:57.397
<v Hafner, Courtney>I've heard a bunch about fireproof and as
you write this I think that should be</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5442-1
00:48:57.397 --> 00:49:00.428
<v Hafner, Courtney>something we should consider.
That collection of these things.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5450-0
00:49:00.428 --> 00:49:05.148
<v Hafner, Courtney>Isn't that the vendor's supplying a
firecracker, right? So.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5453-0
00:49:05.838 --> 00:49:06.478
<v Hafner, Courtney>The so pretty robust.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5462-0
00:49:07.998 --> 00:49:11.598
<v Hafner, Courtney>Right.
Description of of what the collection.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5478-0
00:49:12.468 --> 00:49:16.932
<v Hafner, Courtney>Infrastructure is gonna like, I believe,
e-waste right now has to be in it's own</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5478-1
00:49:16.932 --> 00:49:17.428
<v Hafner, Courtney>building.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5481-0
00:49:17.508 --> 00:49:19.308
<v Hafner, Courtney>It is. Yes, yes. So.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5497-0
00:49:20.838 --> 00:49:25.357
<v Hafner, Courtney>So there should be some pretty robust and
specific requirements for collection</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5497-1
00:49:25.357 --> 00:49:25.758
<v Hafner, Courtney>points.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5519-0
00:49:25.758 --> 00:49:29.552
<v Hafner, Courtney>There's a thing called the Gaylord that
sits on top of a pallet that's like a 4</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5519-1
00:49:29.552 --> 00:49:32.018
<v Hafner, Courtney>by 4 box.
If these things are getting thrown in the</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5519-2
00:49:32.018 --> 00:49:33.678
<v Hafner, Courtney>Gables and that would have combust.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5526-0
00:49:33.678 --> 00:49:36.078
<v Hafner, Courtney>And I just think it's a lot drier than
garbage.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5533-0
00:49:36.078 --> 00:49:37.958
<v Hafner, Courtney>It's it's gonna spread a lot quicker,
right?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5538-0
00:49:37.958 --> 00:49:41.558
<v Hafner, Courtney>So, so so plan would include a robust.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5550-0
00:49:42.348 --> 00:49:47.428
<v Hafner, Courtney>Description of a call it the at point
collection infrastructure.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5575-0
00:49:48.918 --> 00:49:52.279
<v Hafner, Courtney>With the funding,
I can see a support in this to our our</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5575-1
00:49:52.279 --> 00:49:56.229
<v Hafner, Courtney>all our transfer stations,
but if they're being thrown in the pile</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5575-2
00:49:56.229 --> 00:49:57.998
<v Hafner, Courtney>right, you don't wanna, right?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5590-0
00:49:57.998 --> 00:50:01.885
<v Hafner, Courtney>I just wouldn't want to see that, right?
So so there would be both a well said</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5590-1
00:50:01.885 --> 00:50:02.918
<v Hafner, Courtney>that goes along with.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5596-0
00:50:05.198 --> 00:50:09.438
<v Hafner, Courtney>A infrastructure and training.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5598-0
00:50:11.398 --> 00:50:11.958
<v Hafner, Courtney>Requirements.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5629-0
00:50:13.628 --> 00:50:16.972
<v Hafner, Courtney>But like I said, waist is really wet,
so the chances of coming in the next</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5629-1
00:50:16.972 --> 00:50:20.717
<v Hafner, Courtney>morning seeing something like wet leaves,
seeing something smaller and we have time</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5629-2
00:50:20.717 --> 00:50:23.081
<v Hafner, Courtney>to react, right.
If something would happen overnight</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5629-3
00:50:23.081 --> 00:50:25.488
<v Hafner, Courtney>within hours, it could.
It could spread much quicker,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5629-4
00:50:25.488 --> 00:50:26.068
<v Hafner, Courtney>much quicker.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5634-0
00:50:26.188 --> 00:50:29.308
<v Hafner, Courtney>So OK, I would say that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5642-0
00:50:30.838 --> 00:50:32.998
<v Hafner, Courtney>If you're talking about transfer stations.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5664-0
00:50:34.308 --> 00:50:38.322
<v Hafner, Courtney>I think there needs to be more education
done at the transfer stations,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5664-1
00:50:38.322 --> 00:50:41.221
<v Hafner, Courtney>specifically when when they're receiving
batteries,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5664-2
00:50:41.221 --> 00:50:43.228
<v Hafner, Courtney>specifically rechargeable batteries.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5678-0
00:50:45.798 --> 00:50:49.078
<v Hafner, Courtney>The perpetrator of fires most of the time.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5707-0
00:50:49.078 --> 00:50:53.771
<v Hafner, Courtney>Or lithium ion batteries.
And what really needs to happen is is</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5707-1
00:50:53.771 --> 00:50:59.711
<v Hafner, Courtney>when these batteries are then taken to a
transfer station that there be a visual</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5707-2
00:50:59.711 --> 00:51:02.278
<v Hafner, Courtney>inspection of that battery because.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5733-0
00:51:02.628 --> 00:51:07.330
<v Hafner, Courtney>These fires occur with lithium ion
batteries when when these batteries are</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5733-1
00:51:07.330 --> 00:51:10.716
<v Hafner, Courtney>damaged. OK,
when some type of damage has occurred to</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5733-2
00:51:10.716 --> 00:51:11.468
<v Hafner, Courtney>the battery.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5751-0
00:51:12.958 --> 00:51:18.158
<v Hafner, Courtney>Or it's an extremely cheap lithium ion
battery made in China, for example.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5757-0
00:51:18.158 --> 00:51:22.238
<v Hafner, Courtney>That that will self combust. OK,
that could happen too.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5801-0
00:51:23.268 --> 00:51:28.270
<v Hafner, Courtney>But I think there needs to be a whole
process here as far as the container's</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5801-1
00:51:28.270 --> 00:51:31.973
<v Hafner, Courtney>concerned from a recycler's perspective,
my perspective,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5801-2
00:51:31.973 --> 00:51:37.105
<v Hafner, Courtney>there's a cost associated with that,
and if the state says that that container</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5801-3
00:51:37.105 --> 00:51:41.718
<v Hafner, Courtney>has to have certain requirements,
then there's a cost associated with.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5813-0
00:51:41.718 --> 00:51:44.708
<v Hafner, Courtney>That and I need to be able to cover that
cost.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5818-0
00:51:45.068 --> 00:51:48.148
<v Hafner, Courtney>So I I think you know I think.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5823-0
00:51:48.838 --> 00:51:50.038
<v Hafner, Courtney>If everybody does their part.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5827-0
00:51:51.838 --> 00:51:52.758
<v Hafner, Courtney>And that we?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5832-0
00:51:53.028 --> 00:51:56.788
<v Hafner, Courtney>We do a education with the with the.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5854-0
00:51:58.558 --> 00:52:01.331
<v Hafner, Courtney>With the transfer stations,
because a lot of them,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5854-1
00:52:01.331 --> 00:52:05.355
<v Hafner, Courtney>they don't take these lithium ion
batteries because they're afraid of EM,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5854-2
00:52:05.355 --> 00:52:05.518
<v Hafner, Courtney>OK?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5866-0
00:52:07.238 --> 00:52:10.798
<v Hafner, Courtney>They think that they're gonna start a
fire and and they won't.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5888-0
00:52:11.078 --> 00:52:16.029
<v Hafner, Courtney>There's a reason why they're being used,
but if they come in damaged then then</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5888-1
00:52:16.029 --> 00:52:20.417
<v Hafner, Courtney>they need to tell that person.
You need to find another home for that</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5888-2
00:52:20.417 --> 00:52:20.918
<v Hafner, Courtney>battery.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5890-0
00:52:21.268 --> 00:52:21.788
<v Hafner, Courtney>OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5897-0
00:52:23.278 --> 00:52:25.238
<v Hafner, Courtney>Which would probably be a hazardous waste
site.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5909-0
00:52:27.158 --> 00:52:30.558
<v Hafner, Courtney>So these transfer stations should not
even accept damage.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5910-0
00:52:30.838 --> 00:52:30.878
<v Hafner, Courtney>A.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5914-0
00:52:30.878 --> 00:52:32.958
<v Hafner, Courtney>Rechargeable batteries OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5930-0
00:52:33.278 --> 00:52:37.602
<v Hafner, Courtney>That's where that starts,
and not relying on the container to be</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5930-1
00:52:37.602 --> 00:52:39.398
<v Hafner, Courtney>able to prevent a fire, OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5939-0
00:52:39.398 --> 00:52:42.318
<v Hafner, Courtney>So I think there needs to be a little bit
more to the process.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5946-0
00:52:47.558 --> 00:52:49.918
<v Hafner, Courtney>For the record,
your name and organization.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5949-0
00:52:49.998 --> 00:52:52.598
<v Hafner, Courtney>I'm sorry. My name is Bill Dow.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5968-0
00:52:53.398 --> 00:52:59.216
<v Hafner, Courtney>I'm the founder of a startup battery
recycling company here in the state of</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5968-1
00:52:59.216 --> 00:53:02.278
<v Hafner, Courtney>Maine called Battery Recycling Services.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5970-0
00:53:03.718 --> 00:53:03.998
<v Hafner, Courtney>And.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5977-0
00:53:06.118 --> 00:53:07.718
<v Hafner, Courtney>I've been doing this for about two years
now.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5983-0
00:53:09.238 --> 00:53:11.078
<v Hafner, Courtney>In my background,
I actually come from Europe.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/5996-0
00:53:12.678 --> 00:53:16.438
<v Hafner, Courtney>So I know battery recycling from the
European side very well.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6015-0
00:53:17.158 --> 00:53:20.704
<v Hafner, Courtney>And you know I'm, you know,
I'm starting this here in,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6015-1
00:53:20.704 --> 00:53:25.218
<v Hafner, Courtney>in Maine for the past two years,
but specifically focused on consumer</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6015-2
00:53:25.218 --> 00:53:25.798
<v Hafner, Courtney>patterns.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6017-0
00:53:32.288 --> 00:53:32.448
<v Hafner, Courtney>OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6018-0
00:53:32.528 --> 00:53:33.248
<v Hafner, Courtney>Thank you.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6042-0
00:53:35.198 --> 00:53:39.610
<v Hafner, Courtney>So I agree with Bill that they have to be
damaged and that's most cases.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6042-1
00:53:39.610 --> 00:53:43.841
<v Hafner, Courtney>But my concern with that is if they
refuse the pickup of the battery,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6042-2
00:53:43.841 --> 00:53:46.078
<v Hafner, Courtney>where's that battery going to end up?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6043-0
00:53:46.078 --> 00:53:47.078
<v Hafner, Courtney>That's right.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6078-0
00:53:47.358 --> 00:53:51.443
<v Hafner, Courtney>My other concern is it may not be damaged
when they receive it,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6078-1
00:53:51.443 --> 00:53:54.699
<v Hafner, Courtney>but when you toss one of these things
into a pile,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6078-2
00:53:54.699 --> 00:53:58.593
<v Hafner, Courtney>it could crack or the weight of you know,
as the pile grows,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6078-3
00:53:58.593 --> 00:54:02.678
<v Hafner, Courtney>something could happen that would be if
they get damaged after.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6083-0
00:54:03.478 --> 00:54:04.958
<v Hafner, Courtney>They're if they're not in something.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6087-0
00:54:05.348 --> 00:54:06.188
<v Hafner, Courtney>Foolproof, right?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6113-0
00:54:06.188 --> 00:54:09.998
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yes, or orderly secure,
but most fires do start from because why</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6113-1
00:54:09.998 --> 00:54:14.688
<v Hafner, Courtney>they start in the in the trash is from
the compacting trucks are being run over</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6113-2
00:54:14.688 --> 00:54:16.388
<v Hafner, Courtney>and that type of thing, yeah.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6125-0
00:54:16.708 --> 00:54:20.788
<v Hafner, Courtney>But I would be concerned of if they
refused.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6136-0
00:54:20.868 --> 00:54:23.343
<v Hafner, Courtney>A battery.
Does that end up being tossed off the</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6136-1
00:54:23.343 --> 00:54:25.868
<v Hafner, Courtney>window after they get?
What does that battery go?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6155-0
00:54:26.898 --> 00:54:31.589
<v Hafner, Courtney>And if it gets tossed in the pile and
gets cracked or damaged from doing that,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6155-1
00:54:31.589 --> 00:54:34.618
<v Hafner, Courtney>we're still.
We're still in the same place, right?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6189-0
00:54:34.938 --> 00:54:40.701
<v Hafner, Courtney>And I guess just to like,
I mean the other kind of damaged battery</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6189-1
00:54:40.701 --> 00:54:47.323
<v Hafner, Courtney>that comes up is is manufacturer, Steve,
a manufacturer's defective battery,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6189-2
00:54:47.323 --> 00:54:51.538
<v Hafner, Courtney>which I believe we we propose would
actually be.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6213-0
00:54:54.288 --> 00:55:00.085
<v Hafner, Courtney>That the manufacturer itself would be
responsible for its its own defective</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6213-1
00:55:00.085 --> 00:55:00.848

<v Hafner, Courtney>That wouldn't be part of the program

00:55:07.615 --> 00:55:10.528

00:55:12.038 --> 00:55:13.598
<v Hafner, Courtney>Courtney's important to the screen.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6240-0
00:55:13.598 --> 00:55:15.478
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yep, we've got Mark first.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6243-0
00:55:17.238 --> 00:55:17.558
<v Hafner, Courtney>All right, mark.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6251-0
00:55:18.488 --> 00:55:20.208
<v Boolish, Marc>Yeah, hi, it's mark from Prba.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6268-0

00:55:27.798 --> 00:55:31.325
<v Boolish, Marc>So these, you know,

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6290-1

00:55:35.318 --> 00:55:41.735
<v Boolish, Marc>So the programs are designed to mitigate

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6310-1
00:55:41.735 --> 00:55:44.318

00:55:44.318 --> 00:55:47.518
<v Boolish, Marc>So that is part of the all applicable.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6329-0
00:55:47.828 --> 00:55:52.708

<v Boolish, Marc>You know,
we try to control it with these programs</v>

00:55:58.587 --> 00:56:01.401
<v Boolish, Marc>as best as possible,

00:56:19.418 --> 00:56:22.698
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>Hello Jen Dobbolanio from the Hazardous

00:56:22.698 --> 00:56:26.658
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>Again, I wanted to speak briefly to Mr.

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6438-0
00:56:27.498 --> 00:56:33.914
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>Our unit is also involved with quarterly

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6438-1
00:56:33.914 --> 00:56:40.089
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>transfer stations because any business or

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6438-2
00:56:40.089 --> 00:56:43.698
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>universal waste from non household

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6444-0
00:56:44.798 --> 00:56:47.198
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>They owe quarterly reports to the state.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6455-0
00:56:47.748 --> 00:56:53.348
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>And in dealing with transfer stations,
especially over the past few years.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6475-0
00:56:54.188 --> 00:57:00.370
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>The the chronic concern that I've been
hearing over and over again is chronic</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6475-1
00:57:00.370 --> 00:57:02.748
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>lack of staffing and turnover.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6512-0
00:57:04.638 --> 00:57:09.106
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>And so I don't have a solution for this,
but I just wanted to put it out there</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6512-1
00:57:09.106 --> 00:57:13.631
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>that if we're going to make a requirement
that the attendant has to examine and</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6512-2
00:57:13.631 --> 00:57:18.326
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>inspect the battery before accepting it,
there can be a challenge to that because,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6512-3
00:57:18.326 --> 00:57:19.118
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>you know many.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6523-0
00:57:19.118 --> 00:57:23.038
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>Of these universal waste drop off areas
at the transfer station.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6535-0
00:57:24.108 --> 00:57:28.068
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>Are often not manned because they don't
have enough manpower to do so.</v>

00:57:29.558 --> 00:57:34.378
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>And I know I've dealt with many who are
even overwhelmed at the scale house,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6560-1
00:57:34.378 --> 00:57:36.318
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>and it's a perennial challenge.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6569-0
00:57:36.318 --> 00:57:39.446
<v D&#39;Appollonio, Jennifer L>I'm not sure how we're going to meet that,
but I just want to make that a</v>

00:57:39.446 --> 00:57:40.038

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6576-0
00:58:02.148 --> 00:58:02.748
<v Hafner, Courtney>Isabel.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6585-0
00:58:05.028 --> 00:58:07.628
<v Isabelle Stevens>Hi, my name is Isabel Stevens.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6596-0
00:58:07.628 --> 00:58:09.948
<v Isabelle Stevens>I am with healthy communities of the
capital area.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6618-0
00:58:09.948 --> 00:58:14.024
<v Isabelle Stevens>We're a public health nonprofit serving
Pennsylvania,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6618-1
00:58:14.024 --> 00:58:19.988
<v Isabelle Stevens>so I'm not a battery expert and more to
hear here to share my experience with.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6627-0
00:58:21.518 --> 00:58:24.718
<v Isabelle Stevens>A specific product which is E cigarettes.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6639-0
00:58:26.678 --> 00:58:29.754
<v Isabelle Stevens>And so,
mostly from the perspective of my work</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6639-1
00:58:29.754 --> 00:58:31.718
<v Isabelle Stevens>with schools and young people.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6646-0
00:58:33.398 --> 00:58:34.918
<v Isabelle Stevens>So as a lot of you probably know.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6652-0
00:58:35.508 --> 00:58:38.028
<v Isabelle Stevens>The rise of disposable.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6677-0
00:58:39.518 --> 00:58:45.035
<v Isabelle Stevens>Phybes has been pretty rampant following
the ban of flavored or the flavor ban on</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6677-1
00:58:45.035 --> 00:58:49.678
<v Isabelle Stevens>pod based products like Jewel,
which had the rechargeable batteries.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6705-0
00:58:51.318 --> 00:58:56.748
<v Isabelle Stevens>And so we're hearing from a lot of the
schools that they're collecting either</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6705-1
00:58:56.748 --> 00:58:59.950
<v Isabelle Stevens>through use,
voluntarily giving them vapes or</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6705-2
00:58:59.950 --> 00:59:03.918
<v Isabelle Stevens>confiscation.
They're collecting large numbers of vapes.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6724-0
00:59:04.668 --> 00:59:09.528
<v Isabelle Stevens>And they're feeling like there's no
guidance on what they can do with these</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6724-1
00:59:09.528 --> 00:59:12.598
<v Isabelle Stevens>products.
So they're ending up in the trash and</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6724-2
00:59:12.598 --> 00:59:14.708
<v Isabelle Stevens>things like that. Youth are also.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6745-0
00:59:15.368 --> 00:59:19.697
<v Isabelle Stevens>If they're disposing of them themselves,
either putting them in the trash,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6745-1
00:59:19.697 --> 00:59:23.968
<v Isabelle Stevens>putting them in water or smashing them,
which hearing the concerns about.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6752-0
00:59:25.438 --> 00:59:26.678
<v Isabelle Stevens>Fires from batteries.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6756-0
00:59:26.678 --> 00:59:30.478
<v Isabelle Stevens>It seems like that might not be the best
route for them to go.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6775-0
00:59:33.118 --> 00:59:38.798
<v Isabelle Stevens>So I guess it's more of a a common and
just a question of like what the current.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6781-0
00:59:40.398 --> 00:59:41.478
<v Isabelle Stevens>Conversation is around it.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6789-0
00:59:41.478 --> 00:59:45.198
<v Isabelle Stevens>I know Katie mentioned potentially a
separate stewardess.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6815-0
00:59:45.828 --> 00:59:51.121
<v Isabelle Stevens>Stewardship program for E cigarettes,
which I think seems like the best route</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6815-1
00:59:51.121 --> 00:59:55.668
<v Isabelle Stevens>due to their hazardous waste and plastic
waste components as well.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6832-0
00:59:57.028 --> 01:00:03.668
<v Isabelle Stevens>But I've done some research and the only
model I found is vape aware Colorado.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6845-0
01:00:04.348 --> 01:00:07.994
<v Isabelle Stevens>So at the state level,
program that addresses safe handling in</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6845-1
01:00:07.994 --> 01:00:09.788
<v Isabelle Stevens>our recycling of vape products.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6874-0
01:00:11.318 --> 01:00:16.189
<v Isabelle Stevens>And they recommend it so that people
aren't having to separate the vape into</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6874-1
01:00:16.189 --> 01:00:21.123
<v Isabelle Stevens>its separate components on their own,
and then not being sure what to do with</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6874-2
01:00:21.123 --> 01:00:22.198
<v Isabelle Stevens>those components.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6879-0
01:00:22.518 --> 01:00:25.303
<v Isabelle Stevens>So yeah,
I'd be interested in hearing kind of what</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6879-1
01:00:25.303 --> 01:00:25.958
<v Isabelle Stevens>the current.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6894-0
01:00:26.228 --> 01:00:31.137
<v Isabelle Stevens>Work is from your perspective.
Since I don't know the battery side of</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6894-1
01:00:31.137 --> 01:00:31.908
<v Isabelle Stevens>this story.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6902-0
01:00:35.688 --> 01:00:36.528
<v Hafner, Courtney>Well, I guess so.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6907-0
01:00:36.598 --> 01:00:39.638
<v Hafner, Courtney>The current, I mean the current I guess.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6908-0
01:00:39.638 --> 01:00:40.358
<v Hafner, Courtney>Call it the current.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6910-0
01:00:41.848 --> 01:00:42.048
<v Hafner, Courtney>Standing.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6928-0
01:00:43.808 --> 01:00:49.088
<v Hafner, Courtney>Of vapes and batteries is that there was
LD 1519 that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6947-0
01:00:51.288 --> 01:00:56.771
<v Hafner, Courtney>Passed through the legislature,

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6947-1
01:00:56.771 --> 01:01:01.448
<v Hafner, Courtney>program for vape,
these vape devices e-cigarrete devices.</v>

01:01:02.968 --> 01:01:04.168
<v Hafner, Courtney>That did not get funded.</v>

01:01:05.848 --> 01:01:06.728
<v Hafner, Courtney>The appropriations.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6960-0
01:01:08.308 --> 01:01:09.708
<v Hafner, Courtney>Table but it would.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6972-0
01:01:11.488 --> 01:01:13.688
<v Hafner, Courtney>Get funded at the Appropriations
Committee this year.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6991-0
01:01:13.688 --> 01:01:17.820
<v Hafner, Courtney>But it was tabled for consideration for
next year.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/6991-1
01:01:17.820 --> 01:01:23.248
<v Hafner, Courtney>I'm not sure what will happen with that.
With that with that bill.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7013-0
01:01:24.768 --> 01:01:28.686
<v Hafner, Courtney>If it does make it through and gets
passed,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7013-1
01:01:28.686 --> 01:01:34.208
<v Hafner, Courtney>then we'll have that program to implement.
If it does not go.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7021-0
01:01:34.648 --> 01:01:37.808
<v Hafner, Courtney>If it doesn't get funded, it gets it dies.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7023-0
01:01:38.828 --> 01:01:39.668
<v Hafner, Courtney>Then.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7064-0
01:01:43.688 --> 01:01:48.995
<v Hafner, Courtney>Then the vape that are embedded batteries
that have embedded batteries would be</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7064-1
01:01:48.995 --> 01:01:54.303
<v Hafner, Courtney>part of the evaluation that we mentioned
earlier about products and how we deal</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7064-2
01:01:54.303 --> 01:01:59.544
<v Hafner, Courtney>with embedded batteries and those without
those that have removable batteries.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7064-3
01:01:59.544 --> 01:02:02.728
<v Hafner, Courtney>The batteries themselves would then be
part of.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7075-0
01:02:04.368 --> 01:02:09.688
<v Hafner, Courtney>The whatever battery program we have
developed from this process.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7120-0
01:02:15.998 --> 01:02:21.737
<v Hafner, Courtney>Courtney Hafner with the department's.
I'm also being the tech person today,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7120-1
01:02:21.737 --> 01:02:26.880
<v Hafner, Courtney>but just to add on to that,
this topic is a complex one because it's</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7120-2
01:02:26.880 --> 01:02:32.993
<v Hafner, Courtney>not simply just talking about batteries
and it's talking about embedded batteries</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7120-3
01:02:32.993 --> 01:02:34.558
<v Hafner, Courtney>and also a hazardous.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7126-0
01:02:35.328 --> 01:02:37.168
<v Hafner, Courtney>Substance. So this is going through.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7129-0
01:02:38.928 --> 01:02:39.568
<v Hafner, Courtney>Two different units.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7152-0
01:02:39.918 --> 01:02:45.337
<v Hafner, Courtney>And we'll have to look at this very
carefully before deciding where they</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7152-1
01:02:45.337 --> 01:02:49.198
<v Hafner, Courtney>belong in these proxy programs or in
existing ones.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7158-0
01:02:53.508 --> 01:02:55.348
<v Isabelle Stevens>Thank you both for sharing that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7177-0
01:02:55.348 --> 01:03:00.890
<v Isabelle Stevens>I'm just curious as schools are coming to
me for advice on what to do with products</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7177-1
01:03:00.890 --> 01:03:01.748

01:03:01.748 --> 01:03:03.108
<v Isabelle Stevens>Is there a best practice?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7186-0
01:03:04.648 --> 01:03:06.128

<v Hafner, Courtney>I actually had a clarifying 'cause I know
we've talked about that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7291-1
01:04:19.686 --> 01:04:23.868
<v Hafner, Courtney>This is one of many drafts that we're
gonna have to go through.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7292-0
01:04:23.988 --> 01:04:25.308

01:04:25.308 --> 01:04:32.378
<v Hafner, Courtney>A year that we're gonna like,
bring this up to legislation to be like</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7310-1
01:04:32.378 --> 01:04:33.388
<v Hafner, Courtney>this year.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7317-0
01:04:33.788 --> 01:04:39.788

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7324-0
01:04:39.788 --> 01:04:43.128
<v Hafner, Courtney>So just as a so to go over the process
again.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7341-0
01:04:43.638 --> 01:04:49.238
<v Hafner, Courtney>In our in our product stewardship report
for January of 25,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7341-1
01:04:49.238 --> 01:04:51.478
<v Hafner, Courtney>we identified batteries.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7358-0
01:04:53.008 --> 01:04:59.421
<v Hafner, Courtney>As a product that should be evaluated to
have its program updated because</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7358-1
01:04:59.421 --> 01:05:00.288
<v Hafner, Courtney>currently.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7362-0
01:05:02.008 --> 01:05:03.008
<v Hafner, Courtney>The program we.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7375-0
01:05:05.088 --> 01:05:08.502
<v Hafner, Courtney>Have limits is limited,
legislatively limited by the chemistry</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7375-1
01:05:08.502 --> 01:05:10.128
<v Hafner, Courtney>and by rechargeable batteries.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7388-0
01:05:11.258 --> 01:05:15.098
<v Hafner, Courtney>Which is is severely out of date.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7399-0
01:05:16.298 --> 01:05:21.182
<v Hafner, Courtney>And so that's kind of what started us
down this road of of trying to update</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7399-1
01:05:21.182 --> 01:05:22.018
<v Hafner, Courtney>that program.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7422-0
01:05:24.048 --> 01:05:31.752
<v Hafner, Courtney>And then I can't remember the LD number,
but there was a there was a a bill put in</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7422-1
01:05:31.752 --> 01:05:33.608
<v Hafner, Courtney>that did two things.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7425-0
01:05:35.288 --> 01:05:35.648
<v Hafner, Courtney>It banned.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7432-0
01:05:39.288 --> 01:05:41.128
<v Hafner, Courtney>Disposable vaping devices.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7434-0
01:05:42.438 --> 01:05:43.198
<v Hafner, Courtney>And.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7440-0
01:05:44.688 --> 01:05:46.528
<v Hafner, Courtney>Asked us to look into.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7461-0
01:05:48.128 --> 01:05:53.326
<v Hafner, Courtney>Updating the battery stewardship program
and how vait products might fit into that</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7461-1
01:05:53.326 --> 01:05:54.328
<v Hafner, Courtney>type of program.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7492-0
01:05:54.648 --> 01:06:01.249
<v Hafner, Courtney>So we are kind of doing because of the we
already and so we're doing kind of that</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7492-1
01:06:01.249 --> 01:06:07.448
<v Hafner, Courtney>what that bill is required in this in
what we're putting together right now.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7497-0
01:06:07.488 --> 01:06:10.128
<v Hafner, Courtney>So our goal here is to try and develop.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7500-0
01:06:10.478 --> 01:06:12.638
<v Hafner, Courtney>Language for.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7518-0
01:06:14.488 --> 01:06:22.041
<v Hafner, Courtney>Inclusion in the product stewardship
report that'll be published in January of</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7518-1
01:06:22.041 --> 01:06:22.328
<v Hafner, Courtney>26.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7536-0
01:06:23.968 --> 01:06:29.541
<v Hafner, Courtney>Will include language from what we've
heard from these meetings for updating</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7536-1
01:06:29.541 --> 01:06:31.568
<v Hafner, Courtney>our current battery program.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7550-0
01:06:33.248 --> 01:06:39.528
<v Hafner, Courtney>And as a reminder,
the way that process works is we would.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7555-0
01:06:40.558 --> 01:06:42.718
<v Hafner, Courtney>We we put, we publish the.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7564-0

it's out for public comment for a for a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7602-1
01:06:52.476 --> 01:06:57.711
<v Hafner, Courtney>month's period of time during which

01:06:57.711 --> 01:07:01.362
<v Hafner, Courtney>in the report.
And we take those comments and attach</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7602-3

01:07:21.611 --> 01:07:26.584
<v Hafner, Courtney>vapes and the EPR plan for batteries and
electronic waste and LD 1519,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7671-2
01:07:26.584 --> 01:07:32.117
<v Hafner, Courtney>which focuses on requiring a stewardship
program for end of life management of</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7671-3
01:07:32.117 --> 01:07:33.168
<v Hafner, Courtney>these products.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7679-0
01:07:33.168 --> 01:07:36.088
<v Hafner, Courtney>Right,
15/19 was the one I had mentioned that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7690-0
01:07:37.768 --> 01:07:40.888
<v Hafner, Courtney>Did pass and and did not get funded on
the appropriations.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7700-0
01:07:42.078 --> 01:07:46.278
<v Hafner, Courtney>What's the forecast? 750-4754 was tabled.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7721-0
01:07:48.768 --> 01:07:54.051
<v Hafner, Courtney>My understanding was tabled,
but we we basically said we were going to</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7721-1
01:07:54.051 --> 01:07:58.888
<v Hafner, Courtney>include the what the sponsor had wanted
in what we're doing now.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7757-0
01:08:05.518 --> 01:08:10.218
<v Hafner, Courtney>I think it's important to also,
as you look at things like this to just</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7757-1
01:08:10.218 --> 01:08:15.309
<v Hafner, Courtney>look outside the box when it comes to
collection in infrastructure to some of</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7757-2
01:08:15.309 --> 01:08:20.662
<v Hafner, Courtney>the programs that have successfully over
the last few years been implemented that</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7757-3
01:08:20.662 --> 01:08:23.208
<v Hafner, Courtney>these folks are doing a great job when.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7784-0
01:08:23.208 --> 01:08:27.572
<v Hafner, Courtney>It comes to radius in you know area and
logistics like I forget the name of them</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7784-1
01:08:27.572 --> 01:08:29.728
<v Hafner, Courtney>now,
but folks that are doing the close</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7784-2
01:08:29.728 --> 01:08:31.398
<v Hafner, Courtney>collection that have put stuff.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7797-0
01:08:32.168 --> 01:08:34.530
<v Hafner, Courtney>All over,
they usually had all the conferences and</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7797-1
01:08:34.530 --> 01:08:36.568
<v Hafner, Courtney>they're redoing the clothes or making
rags.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7813-0
01:08:37.558 --> 01:08:41.985
<v Hafner, Courtney>Oh, OK. But also, you know, like, like,
these folks are collecting at all the</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7813-1
01:08:41.985 --> 01:08:44.198
<v Hafner, Courtney>transfer stations and also paying care.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7850-0
01:08:44.318 --> 01:08:49.258
<v Hafner, Courtney>Paying care does it very successful job
at when it comes to logistics and and and</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7850-1
01:08:49.258 --> 01:08:53.536
<v Hafner, Courtney>collection like those folks.
These guys obviously are paying attention</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7850-2
01:08:53.536 --> 01:08:57.512
<v Hafner, Courtney>is, but those folks might not.
But once this is out there they're</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7850-3
01:08:57.512 --> 01:09:01.248
<v Hafner, Courtney>they're very good at at they've been very
successful at what?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7860-0
01:09:01.248 --> 01:09:05.358
<v Hafner, Courtney>You know on on working radius areas and
collection points.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7886-0
01:09:05.798 --> 01:09:10.538
<v Hafner, Courtney>If I can't add to that real quick,
the only thing we are concerned about is</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7886-1
01:09:10.538 --> 01:09:13.158
<v Hafner, Courtney>with retailers and certain drop off sites.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7907-0
01:09:13.198 --> 01:09:16.618
<v Hafner, Courtney>That is ideal,
but with transfer stations we do have to</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7907-1
01:09:16.618 --> 01:09:21.200
<v Hafner, Courtney>be careful because just because my leg I
might be 10 miles from my nearest</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7907-2
01:09:21.200 --> 01:09:22.238
<v Hafner, Courtney>transfer station.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7916-0
01:09:22.238 --> 01:09:26.798
<v Hafner, Courtney>But if it's not located technically in my
town, then I can't really use that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7923-0
01:09:26.798 --> 01:09:29.398
<v Hafner, Courtney>So we are thinking about that, right?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7925-0
01:09:29.398 --> 01:09:30.478
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yeah. We then actually.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7938-0
01:09:31.408 --> 01:09:34.468
<v Hafner, Courtney>The the you'll see the convenience.
I call it a convenience standard,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7938-1
01:09:34.468 --> 01:09:35.168
<v Hafner, Courtney>the convenience.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7943-0
01:09:36.078 --> 01:09:38.398
<v Hafner, Courtney>Goal kind of like tries to.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7981-0
01:09:39.518 --> 01:09:44.156
<v Hafner, Courtney>Put in in in a basic.
It kind of like builds on on that</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7981-1
01:09:44.156 --> 01:09:50.699
<v Hafner, Courtney>standard products stewardship goal of 95%
of the population within 15 minutes.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7981-2
01:09:50.699 --> 01:09:56.828
<v Hafner, Courtney>And then we try to include like in
addition to that transfer stations and</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7981-3
01:09:56.828 --> 01:10:00.638
<v Hafner, Courtney>knowing and as Courtney said because I
might.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/7990-0
01:10:00.638 --> 01:10:03.358
<v Hafner, Courtney>Not be able to use the transfer station,
you know.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8001-0
01:10:04.728 --> 01:10:08.508
<v Hafner, Courtney>Then other potential avenues for
collection, such as retailers or a town,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8001-1
01:10:08.508 --> 01:10:08.968
<v Hafner, Courtney>may have.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8035-0
01:10:09.678 --> 01:10:13.960
<v Hafner, Courtney>May wish to have a collection point
someplace other than the transfer station.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8035-1
01:10:13.960 --> 01:10:18.133
<v Hafner, Courtney>If they don't have a transfer station.
I know there was one comment somebody</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8035-2
01:10:18.133 --> 01:10:22.523
<v Hafner, Courtney>said that you know a fire station might
make an appropriate appropriate spot for</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8035-3
01:10:22.523 --> 01:10:23.878
<v Hafner, Courtney>a battery location point.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8061-0
01:10:23.878 --> 01:10:28.531
<v Hafner, Courtney>So that's actually, I mean,
so I'll be honest, I'll just say any,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8061-1
01:10:28.531 --> 01:10:33.818
<v Hafner, Courtney>if people can look at what we've put out
there and if they have, you know,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8061-2
01:10:33.818 --> 01:10:35.158
<v Hafner, Courtney>comments good, bad.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8068-0
01:10:36.008 --> 01:10:38.368
<v Hafner, Courtney>Ugly regarding what we've proposed.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8082-0
01:10:39.758 --> 01:10:42.675
<v Hafner, Courtney>You know,
please feel free to let us know how you</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8082-1
01:10:42.675 --> 01:10:43.958
<v Hafner, Courtney>your comments on that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8085-0
01:10:45.628 --> 01:10:47.748
<v Hafner, Courtney>Mark has his hand up Mark.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8093-0
01:10:48.728 --> 01:10:50.208
<v Mark Draper>Hey Brian. Thanks.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8108-0
01:10:50.248 --> 01:10:52.704
<v Mark Draper>So yeah,
Mark Draper on the solid waste director</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8108-1
01:10:52.704 --> 01:10:54.208
<v Mark Draper>for Aroostook Waste Solutions.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8122-0
01:10:54.248 --> 01:10:57.928
<v Mark Draper>We run a landfill and a transfer station
in Aroostook County.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8158-0
01:10:57.928 --> 01:11:02.010
<v Mark Draper>So you just touched on,
I guess what I was going to say.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8158-1
01:11:02.010 --> 01:11:06.235
<v Mark Draper>One is you know,
am happy to see that convenience standard</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8158-2
01:11:06.235 --> 01:11:10.532
<v Mark Draper>95% within 15 miles.
And I think I was the one maybe others</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8158-3
01:11:10.532 --> 01:11:16.118
<v Mark Draper>have suggested using fire stations if
possible, but that's obviously another.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8162-0
01:11:16.878 --> 01:11:17.518
<v Mark Draper>Whole group of entities.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8168-0
01:11:18.028 --> 01:11:20.188
<v Mark Draper>That need to be involved to make that
happen.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8204-0
01:11:21.678 --> 01:11:26.358
<v Mark Draper>The other thing I just wanted to touch on
real quick was I am happy to see that you</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8204-1
01:11:26.358 --> 01:11:28.643
<v Mark Draper>know,
we're gonna try to move forward as</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8204-2
01:11:28.643 --> 01:11:32.989
<v Mark Draper>quickly as we can with as many batteries
as possible and looking at obviously</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8204-3
01:11:32.989 --> 01:11:35.998
<v Mark Draper>embedded batteries,
which is gonna be a problem, but.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8210-0
01:11:35.998 --> 01:11:37.518
<v Mark Draper>It's gonna take longer to solve.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8229-0
01:11:37.998 --> 01:11:41.954
<v Mark Draper>I like the approach that the department
took to hopefully put something in the</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8229-1
01:11:41.954 --> 01:11:44.958
<v Mark Draper>legislation that will lead to that
happening down the line.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8233-0
01:11:46.638 --> 01:11:47.918
<v Mark Draper>The only other couple things is.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8270-0
01:11:48.108 --> 01:11:52.825
<v Mark Draper>As I see, you know, July 2027,
obviously I realize that things take time</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8270-1
01:11:52.825 --> 01:11:57.542
<v Mark Draper>to get through the legislative and
rulemaking process, but the you know,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8270-2
01:11:57.542 --> 01:12:02.388
<v Mark Draper>as as Mike and others can probably attest,
this is a problem for us today.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8287-0
01:12:02.468 --> 01:12:06.683
<v Mark Draper>And I I realize it's going to take time,
but in any opportunity to make it as</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8287-1
01:12:06.683 --> 01:12:09.548
<v Mark Draper>quick as possible,
we would certainly appreciate it.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8296-0
01:12:10.148 --> 01:12:13.308
<v Mark Draper>And I did my last question.
I think you just answered it, Brian is.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8301-0
01:12:14.278 --> 01:12:14.638
<v Mark Draper>So I just.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8307-0
01:12:14.638 --> 01:12:15.998
<v Mark Draper>I just got a chance to look at this.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8312-0
01:12:15.998 --> 01:12:18.478
<v Mark Draper>Are you are the department going to take
written comments?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8324-0
01:12:19.188 --> 01:12:22.628
<v Mark Draper>On this draft as well,
for some period of time.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8341-0
01:12:22.908 --> 01:12:25.948
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yes, yes, we will.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8329-0
01:12:24.198 --> 01:12:24.358
<v Mark Draper>OK.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8337-0
01:12:25.918 --> 01:12:26.878
<v Mark Draper>Is there a deadline or?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8342-0
01:12:25.988 --> 01:12:26.428
<v Hafner, Courtney>I'd like.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8346-0
01:12:28.468 --> 01:12:30.988
<v Hafner, Courtney>I'd like to say two weeks.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8347-0
01:12:31.508 --> 01:12:31.868
<v Mark Draper>OK.</v>

01:12:32.438 --> 01:12:37.531
<v Hafner, Courtney>I'll reiterate this in an e-mail that I'm
going to send after the transcript is</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8376-1
01:12:37.531 --> 01:12:41.478
<v Hafner, Courtney>available for viewing,
and I'll reiterate all these timelines</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8376-2
01:12:41.478 --> 01:12:44.598

01:12:46.558 --> 01:12:49.959
<v Hafner, Courtney>Just because of the calendar coming up,
you know if we need to get something into</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8399-1
01:12:49.959 --> 01:12:52.198
<v Hafner, Courtney>the report,
I need to kind of have the report itself.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8404-0
01:12:52.548 --> 01:12:55.028
<v Hafner, Courtney>Wrapped up in December.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8416-0

<v Hafner, Courtney>And December's not that far away.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8421-0
01:12:57.878 --> 01:13:01.478

01:13:03.238 --> 01:13:04.598
<v Hafner, Courtney>Probably, yeah.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8429-0
01:13:04.598 --> 01:13:05.278
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yeah, I don't know.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8458-0
01:13:05.318 --> 01:13:09.074
<v Hafner, Courtney>I think no. I think well,
we only have a month left to get</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8458-1
01:13:09.074 --> 01:13:12.385
<v Hafner, Courtney>everything done, but APR is actually,

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8458-3
01:13:17.096 --> 01:13:17.478
<v Hafner, Courtney>weeks.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8463-0
01:13:17.478 --> 01:13:20.598
<v Hafner, Courtney>So yeah, we've got a bunch of, yeah,
stuff up there.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8467-0
01:13:21.708 --> 01:13:22.668
<v Mark Draper>Thank. Thank you for that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8469-0
01:13:23.368 --> 01:13:24.288
<v Hafner, Courtney>Sure, mark. Thanks.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8470-0
01:13:29.828 --> 01:13:30.388
<v Hafner, Courtney>So.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8474-0
01:13:32.278 --> 01:13:33.598
<v Hafner, Courtney>Anything else from in the room?</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8483-0
01:13:35.118 --> 01:13:36.398
<v Hafner, Courtney>I'm on the tail end of this thing.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8496-0
01:13:36.398 --> 01:13:41.918
<v Hafner, Courtney>I didn't attend the August 12th meeting,
so I'm kind of playing catch up right now.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8518-0
01:13:41.918 --> 01:13:44.628
<v Hafner, Courtney>Sure.
We do have both a transcript and the</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8518-1
01:13:44.628 --> 01:13:49.795
<v Hafner, Courtney>meeting itself available on our website
if anybody wants to refresh themselves to</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8518-2
01:13:49.795 --> 01:13:51.118
<v Hafner, Courtney>the first one, great.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8520-0
01:13:51.118 --> 01:13:52.318
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yeah. Welcome both.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8522-0
01:13:53.918 --> 01:13:54.238
<v Hafner, Courtney>It'll be great.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8536-0
01:13:55.918 --> 01:14:00.668
<v Hafner, Courtney>But yeah, I am gonna reiterate, you know,
we're we are definitely keeping an open</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8536-1
01:14:00.668 --> 01:14:00.958
<v Hafner, Courtney>mind.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8540-0
01:14:01.588 --> 01:14:03.708
<v Hafner, Courtney>You want to hear what people have to say.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8549-0
01:14:05.438 --> 01:14:09.318
<v Hafner, Courtney>As they always say,
the devil is in the details. So.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8562-0
01:14:10.958 --> 01:14:14.398
<v Hafner, Courtney>If if if you have comments and as
detailed as possible regarding.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8587-0
01:14:16.998 --> 01:14:22.137
<v Hafner, Courtney>These issues that would be great.
I know our biggest comments that we've</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8587-1
01:14:22.137 --> 01:14:26.572
<v Hafner, Courtney>gotten that we are looking at really
carefully is convenience,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8587-2
01:14:26.572 --> 01:14:29.318
<v Hafner, Courtney>trying to make this free to the public.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8609-0
01:14:30.138 --> 01:14:36.168
<v Hafner, Courtney>And keeping a special eye out for Evie
and embedded batteries because they are</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8609-1
01:14:36.168 --> 01:14:40.138
<v Hafner, Courtney>going to be their own beast and we
understand that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8636-0
01:14:40.138 --> 01:14:42.405
<v Hafner, Courtney>Yeah,
I mean some ways we're kind of with</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8636-1
01:14:42.405 --> 01:14:45.915
<v Hafner, Courtney>attacking what I'm what I'm referring to
is the loose batteries,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8636-2
01:14:45.915 --> 01:14:48.938
<v Hafner, Courtney>the removable rechargeables,
and the primary batteries.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8644-0
01:14:48.978 --> 01:14:55.058
<v Hafner, Courtney>It's somewhat we're gonna try and make go
after the low hanging fruit first.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8651-0
01:14:55.758 --> 01:14:58.878
<v Hafner, Courtney>And and then have the have the.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8656-0
01:14:59.668 --> 01:15:01.828
<v Hafner, Courtney>Language in the in the bill.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8658-0
01:15:04.428 --> 01:15:05.508
<v Hafner, Courtney>Go towards.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8670-0
01:15:07.278 --> 01:15:10.478
<v Hafner, Courtney>Moving us towards including those other
more troublesome items.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8687-0
01:15:10.478 --> 01:15:14.459
<v Hafner, Courtney>But I do want to get them involved
included,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8687-1
01:15:14.459 --> 01:15:19.678
<v Hafner, Courtney>so again any kind of any comments towards
that as well so.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8691-0
01:15:25.178 --> 01:15:26.778
<v Hafner, Courtney>We have got Ashley Ashley.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8699-0
01:15:28.698 --> 01:15:31.458
<v Ashley Seaward>I love the way you said that.
I feel like on a stage.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8741-0
01:15:33.118 --> 01:15:38.272
<v Ashley Seaward>One comment on the EV batteries,
so I I appreciate that you all are are</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8741-1
01:15:38.272 --> 01:15:44.143
<v Ashley Seaward>coming to this in a comprehensive manner
and and and really trying to do right by</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8741-2
01:15:44.143 --> 01:15:47.078
<v Ashley Seaward>safety as you should as the top priority.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8760-0
01:15:47.478 --> 01:15:52.015
<v Ashley Seaward>One comment on EV batteries is that,
as you may already know,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8760-1
01:15:52.015 --> 01:15:57.358
<v Ashley Seaward>and apologies if I said this in the first
meeting, but EV batteries are.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8783-0
01:15:58.068 --> 01:16:02.715
<v Ashley Seaward>Are very different from small and mid
format batteries, both in.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8783-1
01:16:02.715 --> 01:16:08.148
<v Ashley Seaward>Obviously their size and their weight,
but their recycling streams as well.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8801-0
01:16:08.748 --> 01:16:12.281
<v Ashley Seaward>EV batteries are not, you know,
a consumer isn't just dropping off an EV</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8801-1
01:16:12.281 --> 01:16:14.508
<v Ashley Seaward>battery on the side of the road,
necessarily.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8806-0
01:16:14.508 --> 01:16:16.148
<v Ashley Seaward>They weigh hundreds of pounds.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8828-0
01:16:16.148 --> 01:16:20.677
<v Ashley Seaward>It takes a trained professional to remove
an EV battery from the the bottom of a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8828-1
01:16:20.677 --> 01:16:24.256
<v Ashley Seaward>vehicle, and they're handled,
handled by licensed professionals</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8828-2
01:16:24.256 --> 01:16:26.828
<v Ashley Seaward>throughout their lifetime as they go
through.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8847-0
01:16:27.228 --> 01:16:30.956
<v Ashley Seaward>The auto recycling process and then
downstream to battery recyclers such as</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8847-1
01:16:30.956 --> 01:16:31.348
<v Ashley Seaward>Redwood.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8884-0
01:16:31.348 --> 01:16:34.908
<v Ashley Seaward>So we work very closely on EV battery
recycling policy.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8884-1
01:16:34.908 --> 01:16:38.469
<v Ashley Seaward>We worked very closely in in California
and New Jersey,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8884-2
01:16:38.469 --> 01:16:43.428
<v Ashley Seaward>which is the only state in the country
that has an EV battery management law.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8908-0
01:16:43.548 --> 01:16:47.808
<v Ashley Seaward>So happy anytime to give some more
information on that and some of the</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8908-1
01:16:47.808 --> 01:16:52.188
<v Ashley Seaward>lessons learned and best practices.
But just wanting to make sure you're</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8908-2
01:16:52.188 --> 01:16:56.628
<v Ashley Seaward>clear that a battery management recycling
program for consumer batteries.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8921-0
01:16:57.308 --> 01:17:01.274
<v Ashley Seaward>In our opinion,
should be much different than a recycling</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8921-1
01:17:01.274 --> 01:17:03.668
<v Ashley Seaward>law for electric vehicle batteries.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8933-0
01:17:04.258 --> 01:17:06.898
<v Hafner, Courtney>Right. And I think I'll throw on that too.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8943-0
01:17:07.458 --> 01:17:12.818
<v Hafner, Courtney>We mentioned in the straw man household
power batteries.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8958-0
01:17:12.818 --> 01:17:16.909
<v Hafner, Courtney>I'm not that up to date,
but I do believe that's becoming a thing</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8958-1
01:17:16.909 --> 01:17:19.698
<v Hafner, Courtney>now or instead of people,
whether they have.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8966-0
01:17:22.518 --> 01:17:24.158
<v Hafner, Courtney>A solar solar array.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8977-0
01:17:24.158 --> 01:17:28.278
<v Hafner, Courtney>Then they'll have a storage battery,
or even my understanding now is that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/8983-0
01:17:30.998 --> 01:17:33.238
<v Hafner, Courtney>That residents, instead of getting.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/9000-0
01:17:33.668 --> 01:17:38.826
<v Hafner, Courtney>A generator system will have a battery
storage system that can power their</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/9000-1
01:17:38.826 --> 01:17:41.508
<v Hafner, Courtney>household for a couple of hours or not.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/9009-0
01:17:41.508 --> 01:17:43.948
<v Hafner, Courtney>Let's say Rob can tell us for a couple
days.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/9020-0
01:17:43.948 --> 01:17:46.961
<v Hafner, Courtney>And so we do, yeah,
believe that those are kind of, yeah,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/9020-1
01:17:46.961 --> 01:17:48.468
<v Hafner, Courtney>that is a bit of a different.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/9044-0
01:17:50.038 --> 01:17:55.363
<v Hafner, Courtney>Beast, as opposed to consumer batteries.
But that being said,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/9044-1
01:17:55.363 --> 01:18:01.118
<v Hafner, Courtney>I will say I have seen YouTube videos
that show you how to how to.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/9049-0

<v Hafner, Courtney>Wow.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/9160-1
01:18:52.539 --> 01:18:57.591
<v Ashley Seaward>there's there is some differences between
a hybrid battery and a fully plug in</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/9160-2
01:18:57.591 --> 01:18:58.678

01:18:58.678 --> 01:19:01.239
<v Ashley Seaward>There can be differences in the size of
the battery,</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/9195-1

01:19:04.283 --> 01:19:08.100
<v Ashley Seaward>but there there are much larger batteries
that are a much more difficult for a</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/9195-3
01:19:08.100 --> 01:19:10.758

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/9232-1
01:19:17.619 --> 01:19:23.716
<v Hafner, Courtney>devil is in the details and you know we

01:19:29.508 --> 01:19:30.708
<v Hafner, Courtney>Loopholes that.</v>

80d95621-4cae-4321-98de-2cd3b5e2ec0d/9269-1
01:19:39.747 --> 01:19:43.860
<v Hafner, Courtney>comprehensive as possible,
not necessarily have a system for</v>

01:19:43.860 --> 01:19:47.501
