Operating at full capacity, under ideal market conditions with advanced non- ferrous sorting technology they can be huge money-making machines. But now, it appears, there are too many mouths to feed and not enough raw scrap to go around. Industry sources say that many shredders are running at 50 to 70 percent capacity. Some large shredders sit idle. But, as always, there are exceptions. According to the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI) there are now more than 340 large metal shredders oper- ating in North America, up from the roughly 120 shredders in the 1970s. And, more shred- ders come on line every year, many smaller, but some bigger, more powerful and more effi- cient than ever before. Frank Goulding, vice pres- ident of ferrous sales and mar- keting for Newell Recycling in Georgia discussed market con- ditions in his area. Newell is the largest scrap processor in the state with 8 feeder yards, and 3, 120 x 104”, 6,000 hp shredders. “The challenge is there are a lot of shredders that have entered the marketplace since 2008 and the amount of obso- lete scrap suitable for shredding has leveled off. The pie is still the same size, but the shredder operators are getting a smaller piece of it. And, the price for that scrap has gone up signifi- cantly. So we are facing margin squeeze, meaning we are buy- ing fewer tons for more money with a lower gross profit.” Goulding knows his busi- ness. Since joining Newell in 1979, the company has grown from 40 employees to over 600 today. He currently serves as chairman of the ferrous division of ISRI, is a chairperson on their shredder committee, and sits on their board of directors. “As far as the ability to sell our shredded product, demand is good,” Goulding continued. “We haven’t had any issues selling our scrap into the mar- ket. The mill buyers are able to buy the same tons as prior to all these new shredders coming into the market. They just buy it from more producers.” Goulding reported that his shredders are running at roughly 60 percent capacity. They are focusing on lowering cost of production, trying to lean-out the cost of operating shredders and getting down the cost per ton. Newell is focusing on labor and practices, manag- ing energy, looking at wear parts, evaluating equipment they are using to feed and sup- port the shredder, looking downstream at other ways to separate metals and recovering more nonferrous from the residue. “What we’ve done is better manage the time of shredder operation. We’ve tried to incor- porate operating the shredder into one shift so that the pro- duction shift is also the mainte- nance shift and we’ve fine-tuned our practices.” “It’s a challenge keeping them fed. As far as acquisition of materials, we just try to be price competitive and provide good service in the hope we sat- isfy our suppliers so that they are happy and comfortable doing business with us.

Exide Technologies plans to investmore than $7 million over the next 2years to upgrade its Vernon battery recy-cling facility as part of a comprehensiveagreement with the California Depart-ment of Toxic Substances Control(DTSC).

The capital investments aredesigned to improve the Vernon plant’scompliance with environmental stan-dards and reduce air emission levels wellbelow regulatory health risk thresholds.The planned expenditures will bringExide’s total investment in environmen-tal upgrades at the Vernon plant to morethan $18 million since 2008.

Under the agreement, Exide willreplace on-site underground storm-waterpiping with a more advanced double-walled system at a cost of more than $4million. The company has expedited con-struction, which is well underway and isexpected to be completed by year end.

Exide will begin installing addi-tional high-efficiency filters to reduceemissions and later, a separate device tocut organic emissions. Exide began fur-nace modifications early this year toreduce arsenic emissions. Preliminarytests in April showed arsenic levelsbelow regulatory health risk thresholds.When the remaining installation is com-pleted next summer, at a cost of morethan $2.5 million, emissions areexpected to be further reduced to a theo-retical cancer risk of less than half thelevel allowed by the South Coast Cali-fornia Air Quality Management District.

As part of its community outreachefforts, Exide has agreed to fund a pro-gram in cooperation with the Los Ange-les County Health Department that willoffer voluntary blood testing to residentsof Vernon and other neighborhoods ofSoutheast Los Angeles.

Exide also has begun testing soiland surface dust in the industrial neigh-borhood around the plant for lead,arsenic and other metals to determinewhether there is any health risk.

The company will continue to workcooperatively with state and local officialsand representatives of surrounding com-munities on these projects and will set up aseparate financial account to fund them.

The agreement between Exide andDTSC resolves issues stemming from asuspension order in April 2013 that shutdown the Vernon plant for more thanseven weeks. The facility resumed oper-ations in late June after obtaining a pre-liminary injunction ruling in its favorfrom a Los Angeles Superior Court.

While the agreement is subject toapproval of the court in Exide’s bank-ruptcy case, the company is implement-ing many of the remedial measures priorto bankruptcy court approval.

The Vernon plant is one of two bat-tery recycling facilities west of theRockies. It recycles approximately25,000 lead-acid batteries daily and 8million a year.

At my age, I don't want to eat healthfood. I need all the preservatives I canget.

As part of the California’s ongoingefforts to improve recycling efforts andensure the Beverage Container Recy-cling Fund’s fiscal integrity, consumerloads of California Redemption Value(CRV) beverage containers that includenon-CRV material will no longer be eli-gible for refunds at recycling centers.This change became effective November1, 2013. The updated rule, signed intolaw by Governor Brown, eliminates the“commingled” per-pound payment ratethat is somewhat lower than the CRV-only rate.

Since 1987, consumers have beenable to include non-CRV containers withCRV-eligible containers when bringingrecyclables to recycling centers forredemption. The commingled rate recog-nized consumers’ bundled containerscould include non-CRV items such as milkjugs, wine and distilled spirits bottles, andfood containers in loads of CRV materials.As such, consumers bringing so-called“commingled loads” to recycling centersreceived a reduced rate per pound.

In addition to giving the consumer alower net payment for their recycling, thecommingled rate risked CRV paymentsfor commingled loads that included mini-mal CRV-eligible materials.

Recycling facilities that currentlyoffer consumers the commingled rate formixed loads will only be allowed to payscrap value for the non-CRV materials.Most consumers who redeem their emptybottles and cans at recycling centers willnot notice a change, since many of thosebusinesses already accept only CRV mate-rials. Starting in November, this changewill ensure only CRV-eligible containersare redeemed for their redemption value.

“This much-needed revision to CRVrefund options will simplify transactionsfor consumers and recycling centersalike,” said Caroll Mortensen, director ofthe Department of Resources Recyclingand Recovery (CalRecycle), which admin-isters the state’s beverage container recy-cling program.

Consumers are still able to redeemcontainers by count, rather than weight,for up to 50 CRV beverage containers ofeach material type, per day. Consumersare encouraged to recycle non-CRV bever-age containers for scrap value at recyclingcenters that will accept the material, orthrough their residential curbside or multi-family dwelling recycling programs.

Most beverages packaged in alu-minum, glass and plastic, such as soda,beer and water, are subject at the checkout

stand to CRV of $.05 for containers lessthan 24 ounces and $.10 for containers 24ounces or larger. Notable exceptions aremilk, wine, distilled spirits and medicalfoods. These products’ containers are notcharged a redemption value at the point ofsale. Consumers can redeem eligible bot-tles and cans at more than 2,500 recyclingcenters statewide. Consumer informationon what is included in the CRV programand where to take bottles and cans forredemption is available on the CalRecyclewebsite or by calling 1-800-RECYCLE.

Over the coming months CalRecyclewill be undertaking additional changes toimprove the program and protect the fiscalstability of the Beverage Container Recy-cling Fund, such as enhanced training ofrecycling center owners and adoption ofregulations that will reduce the number ofcontainers an individual can bring to arecycling center in a single day.

CalRecycle also has pending regula-tions to implement a state law requiringimporters of out-of-state containers toenter the state through California Depart-ment of Food and Agriculture inspectionstations, provide personal identification atthe station, and specify where they are tak-ing the containers.

The Institute of Scrap RecyclingIndustries (ISRI) celebrated NationalManufacturing Day by highlighting themany positive economic contributions ofthe industry to the U.S. manufacturinglandscape. Each year, more than 135 mil-lion metric tons of metal, paper, plastic,glass, textiles, rubber and electronics aremanufactured in specification grade com-modities by the U.S. scrap recyclingindustry.

The contributions of the scrap recy-cling industry to the U.S. economyinclude:

•More than $90 billion in sales in2012, up from $54 billion in 2009;

•Generating nearly $28 billion inexport sales to 160 countries;

•Directly and indirectly employing463,000 workers – including an increaseof 15,000 since the beginning of 2010;

•Drawing in more than $10 billionin revenue for federal, state and localgovernments; and

•Lowering energy costs by produc-ing recycled materials that require lessenergy during the manufacturing processthan virgin materials.

National Manufacturing Day, cur-rently in its second year, occurred inOctober. It provides an opportunity forAmerican manufacturers to showcasethe potential the sector holds and pro-mote interest in future manufacturingcareers.

For teachers and students interestedin future recycling careers, ISRI teamedup with the JASON Project to develop aK-12 science, technology, engineeringand math curriculum complete with les-son plans and teaching aids.

The Rexam Chicago, Illinois, officerecently hosted its third annual “Cansfor Cash” recycling event to promoterecycling and raise money for charity.Rexam partnered with United ScrapMetal and was supported by other keypartners including Novelis, Tri-ArrowsAluminum Inc. and Wise Alloys.

More than 3,200 pounds of alu-minum cans, twice as many as last year,were collected at the weekend eventwhich also raised approximately $2,000for local charities. Last year, the charitytotal reached about $1,000.

Aluminum cans are the most valu-able package to recycle, as Americanconsumers earn more than $1 billionannually in recycling proceeds. And theyare infinitely recyclable because alu-minum is a permanent resource, withcans able to be recycled, smelted to can

sheet, converted to cans again and backon retail shelves within 60 days. Thesefacts combine to make cans the mostrecycled beverage container in the

world, with a U.S. recycling rate of 65.1percent, more than double the rate ofother beverage packages.

cost-centers, not profit-centers. Thatgives them an advantage in terms of theprices they are able to get for materiallike junk cars, appliances, or anythingthat is shreddable. Many of these big,powerful 10,000 hp shredders can alsotear apart a lot of heavier and thickersteel like quarter inch plate. Mill ownedshredders operating as cost centers havea real buying advantage and can offerthe highest prices without many of thecosts associated with operating an inde-pendent shredder and scrap yard. Inother words, they don’t necessarily haveto show a profit and rarely, if ever, havefreight expenses since those costs arepart of the buying price.”

“Then, you have other levels. Somescrap companies have independent com-pany shredders that operate on a steelmill property, or right next to one. Theyhave an advantage. And then you havethe guys that are out there competingwith each another. If located in a metro-politan area where there may be severalshredders, they are the ones that are atodds with one another competing forfeedstock.

Marley reported that the automotivewrecker and junkyard businesses arealso changing with the growth of chainsof automotive secondary parts suppliers.“They sell the car bodies to the shred-ders, but the problem today is that manyof these bodies are pretty much strippeddown of components that are easily soldlike catalytic converters, copper wire,aluminum, stuff like that. That’s a lossfor many shredders. Steel mills don’tparticularly like copper, aluminum or

other residual elements, but shreddershave managed to eliminate a lot of thatfrom their shred because they haveinvested heavily in advanced down-stream systems which filter out andrecover a lot of nonferrous. Nonferroushas become a key element in revenuestream of shredders, the profit marginfor many.”

Marley also pointed out that whilemost shredders seem to be operatingbelow capacity, there are aggressiveshredders that are operating as activelyas possible, and some running 24/7 pro-ducing up to 50 thousand gross tons ofshred per month.

To determine current trends inshredder equipment, American Recyclerspoke with Riverside Engineering.Riverside Engineering, based in SanAntonio, Texas, designs and buildsshredder systems for ferrous and nonfer-rous operations, and owns the trademark“MegaShredder.” They supply rotors,castings, electronic controls and automa-tion systems as well as provide engineer-ing consulting services and installations.Rusty Manning, director of sales forRiverside shared his views.

“I would say that domestic demandfor new shredder installations hasplateaued and the expanding marketsare in nonferrous separation. Over thepast several years we’ve developed aline of low cost M-Series shredders thatare very efficient and profitable for ourcustomers. The shift has gone awayfrom the big machines to medium andsmaller sizes. We are working more inniche markets for certain productswhether it be for nonferrous shreddingor for specific markets like sheet iron,tooling scrap or bushings. The days ofbuying everything and just throwing itall into a shredder are becoming less

and less. We are much more focused onmaximizing the customer’s revenue andprofit by being concerned about what’sin their waste product and extractingevery bit of nonferrous material.”

Manning said that the demand fornew mega-shredders is low because themarket is fairly well saturated. As thesemega-shedders wear themselves out thedemand will be to replace parts, keepthem operational or upgrade down-stream technology for increased nonfer-rous recovery. “Someone graduatingfrom a little shredder to a huge mega-shredder, a 122” class machine, I don’tsee that happening so much.

“One of the things that we’ve doneis teamed up with a company in Gree-ley, Colorado called Andersen Sales andSalvage where we are offering a newindustry product called IQASR. Thismachine uses a patented air-flow sepa-ration technology that allows nonfer-rous materials to be more easilyextracted by eddy current magnets, sen-sor sorters, color sorters, and opticalsorters. Our IQASR allows the concen-trated nonferrous material to have sin-gularity, which helps these nonferrousseparation technologies do their jobmuch better. That’s where we’re focus-ing our engineering and marketingefforts,” said Manning.

Wendt Corporation is a third-gener-ation, family-owned company locatedin Buffalo, New York that designs andbuilds automobile shredders and metalseparation systems. They are the largestsupplier of automobile shredding equip-ment and nonferrous recovery and sepa-ration technology in the U.S.

American Recycler News called onMark Ridell, their northeast regionalsales manager for Wendt to find outwhat’s happening from his perspective.

“There is absolutely a trend in the lasttwo years where we’ve really seen anaggressive shift from the older philosophythat bigger is better. Because of the needfor big shredders to have feeder yardsspreading out anywhere in a radius of 100to 200 miles these shredders are facingever increasing costs for transportation andlabor. That model is being revaluated andthere is interest in being smarter geograph-ically with smaller shredder builds thatservice 2 or 3 feeder yards, rather than 8 or10 feeder yards supplying 1 large shredder.

“With our new shredder builds, theexpense to get into the business is muchsmaller, the footprint required is smallerand with the unique design of our ModelM6090 it eliminates the need for a shred-der building as well as yards of pouredconcrete for support piers. Sixty inchrefers to the diameter of the rotor and 90”is the width of the shredder to accommo-date car bodies. This system sits on a con-crete pad as opposed to requiring all thework previously necessary. And the costfor the M6090 can run as low as $600,000to a $1,000,000 depending on site specificconditions and options.”

Ridell is also sales-service directorat Wendt for international business andsaid he is busy fielding 15 to 20inquiries for the M6090, both domesti-cally and internationally.

As competition increases for scrap toshred, shredders are paying more andmore for raw scrap and looking for waysto trim operating costs. With shrinkingmargins on shredded ferrous, everyone isworking to squeeze out as much profit aspossible from nonferrous stream and payless for residue disposal. Of course, shred-ders still have to concentrate their primarymission…making good, clean shreddedferrous for the mills because that’s whatthey demand to make their recycled steel.

Mattress Firm partners withSleep Inc. for recycling

When we hear about recycling, thefirst things we tend to think of are paper,plastic and glass. As many businessesbecome more eco-friendly, it can be hardto keep track of what you can and can’trecycle. Many consumers don’t know thatmattresses can be recycled. In fact, onecompany in Texas recycled over 60,000mattresses and box springs last year.

Sleep Inc, is a family-owned beddingcompany that has taken the steps toapproach an industry-wide problem. Eachyear, over 30 million beds go into landfills.

The Dream Green program not onlyaddresses environmental issues but also anall too common bedding industry issue –what to do with old mattresses.

The biggest misconception aboutmattress recycling is that it literally meanstaking an old mattress and making it newagain. What many don’t know about mat-tress recycling is that none of the materialsare reused for bedding purposes. SleepInc. takes mattresses and foundations andbreaks them down to their core compo-nents. These are then ground or shreddedand repurposed for many other industries.

Mattress Firm has partnered withSleep, Inc. in their Dream Green program.Currently, all Mattress Firm locations inthe state of Texas participate.

The recycling program is very easy toexecute. Mattresses and foundations are

picked up and transported to the recyclingfacility where Sleep Inc. takes care of therest. So what do you get from recycling60,000 mattresses? Over 8 million poundsof raw material including metal, plastic,foam, mattress scraps, cardboard, cottonand wood chips.

Dream Green’s program is just thebeginning to an eco-friendly approachwithin the bedding industry. In June, Con-necticut passed the nation’s first extendedproducer responsibility mattress recyclinglaw. This will require that the mattressindustry assembles a council to organizeand manage a mattress recycling program.

Helping to keep used mattresses outof the marketplace and landfills is a prior-ity for the bedding industry. The Interna-tional Sleep Products Association played arole in formulating the bill.

Where does it go?• Padding and foam are

baled and sold to be used incarpet pads and bike,

car and motorcycle seats.

• Wood is baled and sold tocompanies that press and sellit as compressed wood, wood

pellets, etc.

• Wire and metal springs arebaled and sold to make

benches, metal posts, lightpoles, etc.

A turkey farmer was experimenting with breeding a better turkey. His family wasfond of the leg portion and there were never enough legs for everyone. After manyfrustrating attempts, the farmer was relating the results of his efforts to his friends.

“Well, I finally did it! I bred a turkey that has 6 legs!”His friends asked the farmer how it tasted. “I don’t know,” said the farmer.

“I never could catch the darn thing!”

Pratt to open new recycling plantPratt Paper, LLC, dba Pratt Industries,

a paper and packaging company, plans tolocate a new recycling facility in Indiana,creating up to 137 new jobs by 2018.

The Conyers, Georgia-headquarteredcompany will invest $260 million to con-struct a new 100 percent recycled paperfacility adjacent to its existing box-makingplant in Valparaiso. The project, whichwill be completed by July 2015, willoccupy a new 250,000 sq.ft. building on a50 acre site. It will include a wastewaterpre-treatment facility and road improve-ments. When it reaches its full capacity,the new mill will produce an increased360,000 tons of recycled paper each year.

Pratt, which currently employs morethan 320 associates in Valparaiso and morethan 4,000 across North America, plans to

begin hiring paper machine operators,equipment operators, electrical and instru-mentation technicians, shipping represen-tatives, waste yard personnel, shiftsupervisors and maintenance associateslate next year.

The Indiana Economic DevelopmentCorporation offered Pratt Paper up to $1.2million in conditional tax credits and up to$200,000 in training grants. These taxcredits are performance-based, meaninguntil Hoosiers are hired, the company isnot eligible to claim incentives. NIPSCOhas also offered the company $15 millionin additional energy and infrastructureincentives. The city of Valparaiso will con-sider additional tax abatement at therequest of the Valparaiso RedevelopmentCommission.

WASTEEPA comments on intentionsto build isolation barrier

EPA Region 7 welcomed a commit-ment by Republic Services, Inc., to con-struct an isolation barrier at the West LakeLandfill Superfund Site in Bridgeton, Mis-souri, according to regional administratorKarl Brooks.

Although EPA has not yet seen theformal, detailed plans that will outline theconstruction of such a barrier, the Agencylearned that Republic Services has com-mitted to the project. The barrier will sepa-rate Bridgeton Landfill, which RepublicServices manages, from the radiation-con-taminated material at the West Lake Land-fill Site, which EPA oversees.

“This Agency is pleased that Repub-lic Services intends to apply those provi-sions of its agreement with the State ofMissouri to take this positive and protec-tive step,” EPA regional administratorBrooks said.

In May, Missouri Attorney GeneralChris Koster announced that his office hadnegotiated a legal order with Republic

Services, requiring the company to take aseries of steps to contain and control odor-ous gases at the Bridgeton Landfill,address the underground smoldering, andprovide temporary relocation assistance tolocal residents affected by the odors. Thestate’s order also requires Republic Serv-ices to compensate the Missouri Depart-ment of Natural Resources (MDNR) forits costs related to environmental samplingand monitoring. The action was broughtunder the state’s legal authority to regulateRepublic Services’ operation of theBridgeton Landfill.

EPA Region 7 will continue to over-see a separate and ongoing supplementalenvironmental investigation, focusing ongroundwater sampling, radiation sam-pling, and more detailed site characteriza-tion at West Lake Landfill. Thatinvestigation ultimately will inform theAgency’s work as it develops an amendedRecord of Decision, which will outline afinal remedy for the site.

Vermont affirms order to close landfillVermont’s Environmental Court has

affirmed an Agency of Natural Resourcesdecision to deny recertification of theMoretown Landfill and that the landfillmust remain closed and be capped.

The facility reopened for local cus-tomers in April, but closed again July 15.Advanced Disposal, owner of the landfill,has invested more than $1 million inimprovement to the facility and have indi-

cated they plan to apply for a permit toopen a new section.

Environmental Conservation Com-missioner David Mears said the orderrequires prompt and orderly closure alongwith extensive remedial efforts related togroundwater and odor, to ensure the land-fill will not negatively affect nearby resi-dents or the environment.

Hillsborough County tosell carbon offset credits

Carbon offset credits generated byHillsborough County’s Resource RecoveryFacility, operated by Covanta Energy, havebeen verified and are now available forpurchase on the voluntary market.

The credits represent verified reduc-tions in net greenhouse gas emissionsachieved by generating renewable energy-from-waste at the Resource RecoveryFacility. The facility processes up to 1,800tons of solid waste per day, generating upto 46.5 MW of electricity.

Hillsborough County’s offset creditswere approved through the Verified Car-bon Standard (VCS). The VCS is a highly-regarded global standard for the approvalof credible voluntary offset credits. Inorder for carbon offset credits to beapproved under the standard, they mustrepresent new reductions in greenhousegas emissions, meet strict program

requirements and be independently veri-fied by a qualified third party. The creditsmust be verified annually.

The Resource Recovery Facility wasexpanded in 2009 with the construction ofa new 600-ton-per-day combustion unit.Because Unit No. 4 was installed after2002, it is eligible to be evaluated for car-bon emissions offsets. The facility pro-duced more than 33,000 carbon units in2010.

Hillsborough County is partneringwith Covanta, which is contracted by theCounty to operate the facility, to sell thecarbon credits. According to Covanta,Hillsborough’s facility is only the secondwaste-to-energy plant in the United Statesto produce carbon offset credits for thevoluntary market. Lee County’s ResourceRecovery Facility made their credits avail-able in 2010.

Nice-Pak Products installs solar arrayNice-Pak Products, Inc. and its affili-

ate company, PDI, installed an 855 kWsolar array on the roof of its headquartersin Orangeburg, New York. Installationbegan in late August. The ballasted roof-mounted system is designed to prevent 1.5million pounds of C02 from entering theenvironment per year. It is expected togenerate approximately 1 million kilowatthours of energy per year and supply 15percent of the building’s total electricityload.

The project is supported through vari-ous grants including one from the NewYork State Energy Research and Develop-ment Authority (NYSERDA) under TheNY-Sun Competitive PV Program. It willalso benefit from the Federal BusinessEnergy Investment Tax Credit.

Lighthouse Solar, based in New Paltz,New York was chosen to build the array.The Nice-Pak proposal was given thegreen-light by NYSERDA in February.

Intermountain Wind andSolar offers incentives

Intermountain Wind and Solar (IWS)is a provider of solar and wind energy inUtah. The company has been educatingpotential consumers about the benefits ofutilizing renewable resources through theircommunity incentives. This program hasproven to be successful in helping resi-dents reduce their monthly bills and savemoney on utilities. By using these renew-able green energy sources, residents areensuring that they are leaving our planet abetter place for generations to come. Asthe incentive program from IWS expands,more people are making a switch to cleanpower.

Solar panels in Utah provide cleanenergy by using the renewable resourcesfrom the sun. One of the main benefits ofinstalling a renewable energy system is thelower costs of monthly power bills; afterinstallation, many customers are seeing adramatic decline. A system is capable of

providing solar power in Salt Lake Cityfor over 35 years if it is well maintainedand IWS can perform routine inspectionsto make sure the system is working at itsoptimal capability.

State and local tax incentives can becombined with additional available rebatesand utility decreases. With their commu-nity initiative, the company is also offeringbulk pricing, allowing for lower rates andlower overall installation expenses of solarpanels in Utah. The incentives are makingsystems more affordable, causing anincrease in sales.

While traditional companies focus onsources like natural gas, oil, and coal, IWSworks to provide affordable green powerto residents. Not only do they providesolar panels in Utah, they provide mobilepower resources. The mobile option can bevery useful in places like constructionsites, or during a natural disaster.

First Wind contracted for two projectsFirst Wind, an independent U.S.-

based renewable energy company, hasbeen selected by Massachusetts utilities toprovide clean wind energy across theCommonwealth through a competitivebidding process overseen by the Massa-chusetts Department of Energy Resources.The contracts, which still must beapproved by the Massachusetts Depart-ment of Public Utilities, will provide cleanenergy from the 147 MW Oakfield Wind

project in Aroostook County and the 186MW Bingham Wind project in SomersetCounty.

The planned Bingham Wind projectwould feature 62 turbines totaling 186MW of energy capacity. Massachusettsutilities have agreed to purchase the poweras part of a 15 year contract.

Both projects are expected to qualifyfor federal investment tax credits.

Based on preliminary CensusBureau data, the American Iron andSteel Institute reported that the U.S.imported a total of 2,870,000 net tons(NT) of steel in August, including2,199,000 NT of finished steel (up 13.9percent and 9.8 percent respectively, vs.July final data). Year-to-date (YTD) totaland finished steel imports are21,123,000 and 16,569,000 NT respec-tively, down 9 percent and 7 percent vs.2012. Annualized total and finished steelimports in 2013 would be 31.7 and 24.9million NT, down 5 percent and 4 per-cent respectively vs. 2012. Finished steelimport market share was an estimated 24percent in August and is estimated at 23percent YTD.

Key finished steel products with asignificant import increase in August 2013compared to July are reinforcing bars (up117 percent), oil country goods (up 62 per-cent), sheets and strip galvanized hotdipped (up 50 percent), cold rolled sheets(up 27 percent), sheets and strip all other

metallic coatings (up 21 percent), standardpipe (up 15 percent) and plates in coils (up13 percent). Major products with signifi-cant YTD import increases vs. the sameperiod last year include reinforcing bars(up 13 percent).

In August, the largest volumes offinished steel imports from offshore

were mostly from Asia and Europe.They were from South Korea (355,000NT, up 17 percent vs. July final), Japan(182,000 NT, up 23 percent), Argentina(111,000 NT, up 937 percent), China(109,000 NT, down 38 percent) andTurkey (93,000 NT, up 59 percent).

Sims Metal Management Limitedintends to voluntarily delist its AmericanDepositary Receipts (ADRs) from theNew York Stock Exchange (NYSE).

Following the NYSE delisting, thecompany’s securities will not be listedon any national securities exchange inthe U.S. The company expects to retainan ADR program in the U.S. on the over-the-counter (OTC) market, in order toenable investors to continue to trade thecompany’s ADRs. Trading on the OTCmarket is expected to commence on orabout the date the company’s ADRs aredelisted from the NYSE. The company’sordinary shares are entirely unaffectedby this decision and will continue to belisted on the Australian SecuritiesExchange.

The company will eventually seekto deregister from the U.S. securitiesmarket. When accomplished, deregistra-tion will reduce administrative costs andthe complexity that is associated with adual listing in both the U.S. and Aus-tralia. Deregistration cannot occur untilcriteria relating to average daily tradingvolume or the number of holders of theADRs are met, not anticipated untilOctober 2014 at the earliest.

According to a recent reportreleased by the Steel Recycling Insti-tute (SRI), the overall recycling ratefor steel was 88 percent in 2012with nearly 84 million tons of steelrecycled.

That number is down from 2011’soverall recycling rate of 92 percentaccording to a chart provided by theorganization.

Steel cans were recycled at a rate of72 percent, the highest among packag-ing materials. Automotive scrap wasrecycled at a rate of 93 percent for theyear which is down from 95 percent in2011.

More than 1 billion tons of steelhave been recycled in North Americasince 1988, the year SRI was formed,the agency said.

SRI calculates the rates based ondata from the American Iron and SteelInstitute’s annual statistical reports, U.S.Geological Survey, the EnvironmentalProtection Agency’s Characterization ofMunicipal Solid Waste, the NationalAutomobile Dealers Association, theAssociation of Home Appliance Manu-facturers and the Institute of ScrapRecycling Industries.

The Institute of Scrap RecyclingIndustries (ISRI) and the Association ofPostconsumer Plastic Recyclers, whichtogether represent nearly all U.S. postcon-sumer plastic recycling companies, dis-closed the publication of joint plasticmodel bale specifications to provide clar-ity and uniformity within the industry.These model bale specifications are theresults of a Plastic Scrap Spec Taskforce

which the two organizations formed withthe goals of finding common ground onthe specifications and thereby improvingthe efficiency of trade.

“With the creation of uniform specifi-cations, now everyone in the plastics recy-cling industry can speak the samelanguage,” said Robin Wiener, president ofISRI. “Recognizing a need within theindustry, the joint taskforce first sought todevelop collective specs for more populargrades, and now will work in cooperationto issue specifications for additionalgrades. This first of its kind collaborationbetter sets the parameters for agreementsbetween buyers and sellers.”

The new model specifications includeBulky Rigids, Tubs and Lids with Bulky,and Tubs and Lids without Bulky. Eachassociation will still publish the modelspecs individually, but those will be basedon the same description language to avoidcompeting standards that may otherwiseforce the industry to choose between thetwo or disregard them all together. ISRIreleased its specifications as part of itsupdated Scrap Specification Circular.

Commercial plastics recyclingcompany Allied Reprocessing hasreopened its doors after its buildingwas destroyed in a fire last November.

Owned and operated by WillDouglas, Allied Reprocessing hasresumed operation in a 100,000 sq.ft.production facility located in Ripley,Tennessee.

The new facility contains state-of-the-art equipment and machinery, dou-bling both recycling efficiency andcapability.

The new plant specializes in recy-cling chrome-plated plastics and willcontinue to help manage waste for busi-nesses all over the mid-south.

“We now have the capability torecycle 25 million pounds per year,whereas before we could only sustainapproximately ten million pounds peryear,” Douglas said.

While Allied Reprocessing hascurrently hired back 7 employees, Dou-glas said he hopes to employ 30 to 50more in the coming year.

With two million dollars alreadyinvested in equipment and infrastruc-ture, he says he plans to invest anothertwo million over the next year and iseager to resume full production.

Salvaging Millions

Time and again, I have visitedrecyclers who realize that they havefallen behind and want to return totheir former level of profitability. Usu-ally, the owners want to try to increasesales, which is a great goal, but diffi-cult to do.

Increasing sales often takesmonths and requires the capital to buymore cars and absorb more marketingexpenses. Finding more cars and get-ting the marketing right are both toughtasks.

The good news is that I can getyard owners back to the level of prof-itability they once enjoyed by helpingthem to lower their costs. The beautyof increasing profits by cuttingexpenses is that it can be done immedi-ately and often produces better cashflow and profit numbers within weeks.Having achieved better cash flow andprofits, these owners can then use thesurplus to buy more cars and get theinventory to drive higher sales.

In 9 out of 10 yards I do businessoperations consulting for, I find themost wasted money is in labor costsbecause many yards do not have theright incentives in place to promoteproductivity.

More than 20 years ago, Iswitched my salespeople from salaryto straight commission. Gradually, Ideveloped systems to pay nearly everydepartment of my yard for perform-ance. I really started to grow right afterI made these changes.

In this set of articles, I will discusspay for performance. I have helpeddozens of yards roll it out successfully.

You can implement a successful payfor performance system in yourbusiness.

Here is how a salvage yard pay-for-performance compensation systemshould look:

•Sales – Sales staff, with fewexceptions, should be on straight com-mission.

•Delivery – Paying by the stopwill increase production at least 50percent.

•Inventory – It goes faster andis more accurate when paid forperformance.

•Parts pulling and order fulfill-ment – These employees thrive in apay for performance environment!

•Dismantling – Expect to almostdouble production or to decrease thenumber of dismantlers by half for thesame number of cars

•Outside sales – Pay for perform-ance will make your sales rock starsshine and help motivate average per-formers to become exceptional.

•Extended warranties – This isfound money, with almost no associ-ated costs.

•Cradle to grave dismantling –Eliminate the need for so manyemployees in the dismantling-clean-ing-stocking process while improvingquality and increasing accountability

You can’t afford to continue wait-ing; your most successful competitorshave already lowered their laborexpenses. A good benchmark is thatyour labor expenses as a percentage ofsales should be at or below 20 percentof your total parts sales.

Pay for PerformanceWhat are you waiting for?

Encorp Pacific,Canada is expanding apilot beverage containerrecycling program toencourage even morebeverage recycling inthe city of Vancouver.Launched in partnershipwith the City of Van-couver, the VancouverBoard of Parks andRecreation and in con-sultation with UnitedWe Can, the pilot pro-gram audits reported a94 percent reduction in recyclable beverage containers in Vancouver garbagecontainers.

“We’ve invested more than $125,000 in this pilot program and are pleased tosee its success,” said Scott Fraser, Encorp Pacific president and chief executive offi-cer. “The pilot program in Vancouver will also serve as a model for potential futureEncorp receptacle placements in other B.C. municipalities.”

100 new beverage container recycling bins will be added to Stanley Park and tobusy street locations following the success of the first 60 installed at high-trafficVancouver beaches and on Commercial Drive.

Over the last year, the beverage container bins were installed next to garbagebins at several Vancouver beaches and key points along Commercial Drive. Auditsfound that where the new recycling bins were installed, garbage bins had 94 percentfewer recyclable beverage containers than before, with these items being recycledinstead of ending up in the landfill.

The bins are specially designed to enable easy access to recyclables for the bin-ning community. Created with input from United We Can, a downtown organizationwhich promotes the collection of recyclables, the bins provide open access to recy-clable containers and can carry up to 144 aluminum cans or 75 plastic bottles each.The additional bins will be installed inhigh pedestrian traffic areas around thecity, where binners go to collect andrecycle containers.

“When used properly the new bev-erage container bins installed around thecity provide the binning community witha quick, clean and safe way to collect therefundable containers left behind by thepublic without having to dig throughgarbage cans,” said Gerry Martin, gen-eral manager of United We Can BottleDepot.
