Alaska rules

Businesses in Alaska must determine which waste rules apply to their batteries. Hazardous waste batteries may qualify for universal waste management under 40 CFR Part 273; spent lead-acid batteries sent for reclamation have another federal management option. Confirm container, labeling, accumulation, and shipping requirements with Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) and your recycler.
