Acceptance Policies for Recyclable Materials

Memo: SCRAP IRON METAL Corp.

Our primary concerns have always included the protection of the environment, the health and safety of our employees and visitors, and compliance with the many laws and regulations affecting our operations. As part of our efforts to stay on top of the increasingly complex laws and regulations, we have an on-going program to identify those materials that we can safely and efficiently recycle and those that we cannot.

The purpose of this letter is twofold:

1) To stress our continuing commitment to safe, environmentally responsible recycling. Our commitment is intended to protect you, our supplier, as well as ourselves. We want you to feel assured that when you send your recyclable materials to us, they will be handled in an environmentally responsible manner.

2) To remind you of the materials that we will not accept. These materials include:

-Any “Hazardous Waste” as defined by any applicable federal, state, or local law or regulation.

-Materials containing asbestos.

-PCB transformers, capacitors, light ballasts, or other equipment or containers that contain or are contaminated with PCBs (unless they have been completely cleaned in accordance with applicable laws and policies and with our prior approval).

- Appliances, “white goods”, or other scrap items containing refrigerants or CFCs (unless the refrigerants or CFCs have been removed- with proper certification- in accordance with applicable laws and policies and with our prior approval)

-Cylinders or other containers of compressed gas.

-Sealed containers.

-Nickel-Cadmium batteries.

-Flammable materials.

-Drums, tanks, or other containers that may have any residues on or in them

(Unless they have been completely cleaned in accordance with applicable laws and with our prior approval).

-Materials containing excess or free flowing oil, gasoline, diesel fuel or other hydrocarbons.

-Radioactive materials.

-Garbage, trash, or excessive quantities of dirt, concrete, or other non-recyclable materials.

This list is not intended to be all-inclusive. Suppliers, as well of members of our industry- must use common sense and best judgment to determine which materials cannot safely and efficiently recycle and to manage the associated risks appropriately. If these or other materials that we cannot otherwise accept are included in any shipment of materials delivered to or picked up by us, we will either reject the shipment or, if practical, attempt to segregate the rejected materials. In either event, we will contact you in order to make the appropriate arrangements for handling of the rejected materials. As always, we encourage your comments and suggestions and remain available to discuss these matters with you at your convenience. Your cooperation is sincerely appreciated.
