1 Overview of Presentation Introduction Colin McKean - CBA About the CBA s Stewardship Program; Strategies for Rural and Remote Communities Regulatory Support to Communities Safe handling of Used Batteries Randy Anderson CDN Energy Remote Community Options Iain Fudge - CDN Energy Lunch Demonstration: Proper Shipping Examples: Canadian Energy truck outside demonstrate transportation: battery box and batteries on pallet;

2 About the CBA History Organized in 1970 by CDN battery manufacturers; Federally Registered Not-for-Profit Industry Association; Industry Focus Not just a Stewardship Agency; Members / Stewards Manufacturers: Exide / GNB Power; Crown Battery; EnerSys; C&D Technologies; Johnson Controls; East Penn; National Distributors: Canadian Energy; Magnacharge; Interstate, Eaton Power; Thomas & Betts; Dell; GM AC Delco; Provincial Distributors: Prairie Battery, The Battery Man, Motive Provincial Recyclers: Urbanmine

3 Regulatory Framework Lead is Toxic and Acid is Corrosive! Batteries are: Dangerous Good - Federal TDG; Hazardous Waste - Environment Canada Export and Interprovincial; Hazardous Waste - Provincial Regulations Storage, Carrier, Transport Worker Health & Safety Lead exposure Increasing Product Stewardship Regulations: Manitoba, British Columbia & 3 Maritime Provinces already implemented Our Goal is Stewardship of all Lead-Acid Batteries from Coast to Coast to Coast Safe Collection, Storage and Transportation of all Lead-Acid Batteries

4 Manitoba s Stewardship Plan CBA has an Approved Stewardship Plan since 2011; Minister s 2018 Approval Letter: Emphasis on expanding Access of CBA s Stewardship Program to: First Nation Communities; Rural Communities; Remote Communities. Accessibility - CBA is primarily a Return-to-Retail Program; Communities >30,000: 100% of Population less than <5km to RCF; Communities >4,000: 85% of Population less than <10km to RCF; Communities <4,000: 46% of Population greater than >10km to RCF.

5 Rural Accessibility Why is this important: Minister set Accessibility as a Priority in Approval Rural communities have more DIYS people; Remote communities have huge logistical challenges but they are doing it: Winter roads; Long distances; Narrow windows of opportunity

6 CBA s Stewardship Program Accessibility: 87 Return Collection Facilities Recovery Rates: 99.3% in ,100,000 kg sold in 2017; 6,000,000 kg recovered in ,000 kg not recovered. Over-Simplification, but....

7 We Know Batteries are not Recycled 1. Convenience

8 We Know Batteries are not Recycled 2. Value

9 We Know Batteries are not Recycled 3. Logistics Huge distances; Winter roads; Limited transportation.

10 Despite Those Challenges Your Doing It!

11 Must Ensure Compliance Federal Transportation of Dangerous Goods: Shippers (Consignors) must be Certified to TDG; Shipments must conform to TDG (placards, emergency response, training etc.) MB s Hazardous Waste Regulation Generator Registration required - MBG# Transportation manifests required for shipments of waste lead batteries

12 Path Forward CBA The CBA can help with: Compliance to Federal Provincial Regulations: Federal TDG Training and Certification for Consignors (shippers); Support through Indigenous Services Canada; Provincial Hazardous Waste Approvals; Coordination with other Stewardship Programs: Tires, Electronics, Used Oil, Product Care etc., Partnerships with Reputable Companies: Proper Shipping Containers and Methods; Insured Carriers and Proper Shipping Documents; Fair Pricing.

13 Path Forward Rural Communities Ban Lead-Acid Batteries from Landfill! Stockpile Batteries in Safe Location; Register with Canadian Battery Association: Simple, Free and Regulatory Support Free Supervisor and Employee TDG Training; TDG Certification; TDG Manual; for questions. Partner with Reputable Winnipeg Battery Distributor: Canadian Energy; Prairie Battery; Interstate Battery; East Penn Canada; Exide Technologies; Magnacharge; The Battery Man.

14 Randy Anderson, Canadian Energy Iain Fudge and Randy Anderson, Canadian Energy Canadian Energy Truck Outside Proper Transport by: Battery Box shorter distances and smaller volumes; On Pallets longer distances and larger volumes. Each community will have their own solution.

20 Why Collect & Return Scrap Batteries Monetary Value Reduces contaminates in environment Lead & arsenic in ground water Injuries from Sulphuric acid Reduces reliance on Raw Materials It s the Right Thing To Do!

21 Shipping Used Batteries Hazardous Material Transport Canada Regulated Transportation of Dangerous Goods Regulation

22 Pallets Sturdy with 3 bottom boards 44 X 48 maximum size No nails exposed No broken boards

23 Pallets

24 Honeycomb or Cardboard Prevents batteries from being punctured Placed in between layers of batteries Use multiple layers if using cardboard Must be protected from getting wet

25 Stacking Batteries 1 layer of cardboard between pallet and batteries Stack batteries tight together Batteries of same height on bottom layer Broken or leaking batteries must be bagged Maximum 2 layers high

26 Stacking Batteries Acceptable Too Loose

27 Shrink Wrap Turn wrap sideways for rope effect on each layer Pull & stretch the wrap at corners to make tight Tension on layers to hold together Wrap 2-3 inches above top layer Wrap 2 inches below bottom layer to secure on pallet Protect pallets from getting wet
