Bay Area Haz Waste Committee

• Carol Misseldine, Director of the California Product Stewardship Council (CPSC), made a presentation to ABAG's Executive Board on September 20, 2007, describing the environmental issues and financial costs of proper collection and disposal of common household hazardous or toxic items such as electronic devices, fluorescent tubes, batteries, and prescription drugs. The CPSC is encouraging all cities and counties to pass EPR resolutions, an action that ABAG's Board unanimously endorsed.
