Attention: California Vehicle Dismantlers and Scrap Metal Recyclers

In March of 2006, The
End of Life Vehicle Solutions Corporation (ELVS), DTSC,
and the State of California Auto Dismantlers Association
(SCADA) agreed to create a voluntary initiative designed
to collect, transport, and safely recycle mercury-containing
automotive switches. As part of this program, ELVS
will provide vehicle recyclers with collection buckets
and will pay the costs of transportation, retorting/recycling
or disposal of elemental mercury from the automotive
switches. ELVS also will provide educational materials
to promote vehicle recycling and proper management
of mercury switches.
