CRT Television costs are the real problem. The state electronics law should either be modeled after the tire/white
goods program (significantly more revenue for counties) or make allowances for CRT Television leaded glass to be
1/6/2016 9:23 AM
disposed of in lined MSW landfills.
2
The e-waste recycling program is simply not sustainable. Our processing and transportation costs that had been zero,
now cost approximately $350.00/ton. That rate is 7-8 times our tipping fee. Further, there is no way to recoup these
1/5/2016 12:51 PM
costs via tipping fees. If we were to try and charge $30.00-$50.00 to throw away an old console television - Frankly,
we would probably never see another one at the landfill. However, the rural side roads, ditches, woods, streams, etc.
will probably see plenty. CRT's could easily become the tire dumps of the new millennia.

It started with the House bill in 2015.

Effects of HB765 could cause a 150% increase in the cost of TV processing.

I believe, along with many others that the state should lift the ban on TV's
1/4/2016 9:01 AM
6
we have already spent $75,000 in first 6 months of this FY that was not budgeted. we have just made a budget
12/31/2015 8:01 AM
transfer of an additional $50,000. we have instituted a $10/unit fee on TVs but are beginning to find more illegal
dumping and many that are being slipped into dumpsters to wind up at the landfill at no charge, which we remove and
as a result all the illegal dumping circumvents the disposal fee.
7
We anticipate continued cost increases as more residents switch to flat-screen tvs. We are in remote location, so not a
lot of choices on vendors.

Packaging cost have increased and some electronics are bulky and light making it difficult to get weights on trailers.

Scavenged TV's costing counties, ban them from disposal, people throw them out on road. Accept them-pay for proper
12/30/2015 12:43 PM
disposal
11
To be brief: Moore County receives approximately $7,000 in disbursement from NC. Moore Co. spends approximately
$65,000 each year on the program.
12/23/2015 9:26 AM
12
It should be treated like white goods and tires with counties getting reimbursed for the disposal or they should be
permitted in subtitle D landfills. Prices changes to much with the commodity market. Hard to set a contract
12/22/2015 1:17 PM
13
We will begin being charged for scavaged / broken CRT's. I believe cost will be $0.10 per pound.
12/22/2015 9:31 AM
14
None at present
12/18/2015 1:12 PM
15
The vendors have all started charging and none are on the State Contract. Even if they do negotiate a new Contract
12/17/2015 9:17 AM
the vendors are going to charge because they say the commodities markets have all collapsed. We anticipate for the
new future to pay $0.30 per pound for TVs and monitors -- which make up the vast majority of what we have. Loads
have been costing us around $5,500 including transportation. We started charging for TVs ($15) and peripherals ($5)
on 12/14/15. We do not expect these charges to cover the costs. We also get less that $1600 per year from the State.
This whole program is going to cost the tax payers in the county.

These tonnages represent the 3 counties of Perquimans, Chowan and Gates. But some overall e-waste issues for the
SurveyMonkey
12/16/2015 11:01 AM
counties of Perquimans, Chowan and Gates are: • Very labor intensive material to handle w/ workmans’ comp case
involved. • Aprox. 3-4 times more expensive to recycle then to landfill ($255/ton vs. $68/ton landfill tip fee) • Attracts
pests/vermin when stacked and awaiting shipping (cats, cockroaches, birds, etc.) • Attractive nuisance to public when
collected because folks interested in: salvaging certain units, precious metals, reuse parts, resell in yard sales, etc.
Leaving the worst or most obsolete e-waste parts to market. • When banned from waste stream some individuals
resort to disguising it as bagged waste in next visit, illegal dumping in swamps/woods or right-a-ways instead of taking
it to designated collection sites within each county. Potential Improvements? • Combine it with existing white goods
program since e-waste has many potential precious metals? • Advocate for an advance disposal tax such as scrap
tires & white goods? • Is there any "actual science" out there to show that these are truly dangerous to dispose of in
landfills? Have apparently had some “bad-apple” e-waste recyclers that have gone out of business only to leave
abandoned warehouses in NC as designated Superfund cleanup site from formerly handling this material. • Current
appropriations based on population are paltry to keep e-waste recycling sustainable. • Charging or collecting a fee for
e-waste at local level or landfill is politically unpopular at moment. Just some thoughts and have shared with folks at
NCACC like Matt Gunnett too..... Thanks, Brad Gardner

the landfill

At this time we have a 3 three contract that has no charge for televisions. Contractor is wanting to cancel this contract
12/15/2015 9:41 AM
and start charging
21
With the increase in cost, we are looking at an increase of approximately $80,000 per year to recycle our electronics.
12/15/2015 8:40 AM
We are currently reviewing our options to see how this will be managed.

Costs associated with ewaste disposal does not included collection/handling/shipping. The $3,500 we receive each
year will barely a portion of these costs.
12/14/2015 4:32 PM

We collect curbside or at semi-annual e-waste drives. We deliver to the Cumberland County Landfill who in turn has it
collected by an electronic waste processing firm.

Old console and tube tv's are not going away, they continue to remain the main part of the wastestream and make it

Leaving the manufacturer rebates in the hands of the electronics recyclers is not a good idea!

Due to the nature of the wastes, and the commodity value of copper and other metals, recycling these materials is
1/5/2016 12:57 PM
certainly preferable to landfilling. However, the current costs of recycling is threatening local programs and their
abilities to manage these materials in a responsible way. The e-waste ban has converted from an environmentally
sound program into another, in a long line of, unfunded mandate by the State. The program needs more funding, and
that funding gap cannot be made up from the local programs.
3
We need to find a way to cut this cost for counties

the only way to make this program work is the assessment of advance disposal fees like the whitegoods program.
CRT's are not the only program. when that waste stream lessens the next problem will be the mercury content in the
12/31/2015 8:04 AM
first generation flat panels. this is a burden that will no0t be going away. the dollars being spent to comply with this
mandate has to come from somewhere and I fear it may be at the expense of other recycling programs.
6
Would be better to landfill the tvs than have them exposed to the elements. They would at least be in a lined landfill.

Take TV's off the banned items list!

Manufacturer's funding of e-waste recycling programs worked. It wasn't "free money", as some have alleged. We work
12/30/2015 1:01 PM
very hard to ensure that the increasing volumes of e-waste are managed properly. Proposed changes to the program
would have cost the county an additional $200K per year to manage a waste stream that is banned from disposal in
NC landfills. If there is a disposal mandate, there should be funding in place to properly execute the mandate.

This whole program was set up wrong. The intent was for the OEMs to pay for the recycle but they have big pockets
so they politic-ed their way out of paying by dealing with people who did not know what they were doing or how all of
12/17/2015 9:19 AM
this was supposed to work. If you want electronic recycling to work there is going to have to be a surcharge on all
electronics much like tires or white goods. Then, if you can keep the politicians greedy hands off that pot of money,
you may be able to fund the recycle program. Good Luck with that!
13
Electronics manufacturers should be required to bare the cost of recycling with a tax just like tires and white goods to
prevent illegal dumping of electronics.
12/16/2015 8:33 AM

A lot of county have started a program because of the ban. They can't go back now and say they're not banned. This
would be a night mare for local governments. Getting citizens to recycle is hard enough. Locals tell them this and you
12/15/2015 3:59 PM
want get anything recycled.

We could charge our residents a flat rate or per pound to dispose of their televisions but with the size of some of the
televisions we are afraid this could lead to illegal dumping of the hazardous waste.

Product producer responsibility will need be addressed. There should be support from the manufacturers of electronic
products to manage end-of-life disposal and recovery. This industry's products need to be evaluated continuously in
order to coordinate with all organizations that are involved with: resource materials, design, manufacturing, shipping,
12/14/2015 4:39 PM
vendors, users, collection at end-of-life, disposal and reclamation. Working together from the conception to grave can
prove to be more environmentally friendly, more cost effective and no one gets off scot-free.

* After contacting the two respondents reporting $0.00/lb, both noted that the information was current, but
subject to change at any time, and both were anticipating a per pound fee in the future.

The figures above are overly simplified due to small sample size and lack of tonnage information by commodity listed. These figures do demonstrate that
costs to local County programs during this time could have been in excess of $4.5Million. Estimate probably low due to CRT televisions and monitors
generally making up the bulk of the weight, and they are the highest cost categories. Additionally, the average costs are anticipated to increase as the two
remaining respondents begin paying for processing. The final column demonstrates the financial difference between the television and computer
manufacturer’s responsibilities.

* Figures above include one large facility as an outlier to remaining respondents. Without figures from that facility, the average
cost for Transportation is: $750.00; and the average cost for processing is ($1,168.17).

From:
North Carolina Chapter of the Solid Waste Association of North America (NC SWANA)
Board of Directors
To:
Jessica Montie, Hearing Officer
N.C. Department of Environmental Quality
RE:
Comments on Proposed Amendments to 15A NCAC 13B .0105 (d)
On behalf of the over 500 members of the N.C. Chapter of the Solid Waste Association of North America, we
respectfully submit the following comment on the proposed amendments to 15A NCAC 13B .0105:
As currently proposed:
15A NCAC 13B .0105 (d): Vehicles or containers used for the collection and transportation of any solid waste shall be
loaded and moved in such a manner that the contents will not fall, leak, or spill and shall be covered when necessary in
order to keep contents dry and prevent blowing of material. If spillage should occur occurs, the material shall be picked
up immediately by the solid waste collector and returned to the vehicle or container. and the area shall be properly
cleaned.
Recommended Revision: Reword paragraph (d) as follows:
15A NCAC 13B .0105 (d): Vehicles or containers used for the collection and transportation of any solid waste shall be
loaded, secured and moved in such a manner that the contents will not fall, leak, or spill and shall be covered during
transportation when necessary in order to keep contents dry and prevent blowing of material. If spillage should
occur occurs, the material shall be picked up immediately by the solid waste collector and returned to the vehicle
or container. and the area shall be properly cleaned.
Justification: The provisions of the subsection appear to be aimed at prevention of loss of materials or liquids as
pertains to the transport of waste by residential and commercial collection trucks. The original rule language was adopted
in 1982, before the advent of county convenience sites and transfer stations, both of which as a matter of common practice,
load into open-top containers or trailers before being covered and transported. The same holds true for roll-off containers
used at construction sites. The words “when necessary”, in the original language, permitted some flexibility in the
applicability of the rule in current operational practices. It is not possible to keep vehicles and containers covered during
the time they are being loaded at fixed locations such as convenience sites, transfer stations and construction sites. It is
also not possible to use solid, waterproof covers during transportation that would be subject to lifting off the vehicle at
highway speeds, a very dangerous hazard. For that reason, haulers use a mesh-type material that secures the waste in the
vehicle or container, but is not subject to wind damage. We believe clarification of this language would prevent potential
confusion in the interpretation of the rule.
December 8, 2015
NC SWANA Members and Solid Waste Managers;
The North Carolina Chapter of the Solid Waste Association of North America (NC SWANA) would like to update you on recent
legislative changes regarding the North Carolina Electronics Management Program, and the pending Study of the current state of
the Program. As most of you are aware, the Electronics Management Program was born out of the Solid Waste Act of 2007. The
Program goals were to keep e-waste out of landfills; create a program to facilitate the proper recycling of e-waste; and to require
electronics manufacturers to contribute financially to the Program based on market share and sales in North Carolina. To date,
these goals have not been achieved. Due to depressed commodity markets; CRT processing costs and capacity; and uncertainties
in the Program, the gap in funding continues to grow and the operation of local e-waste recycling programs is becoming critically
burdensome.
NC SWANA has been monitoring the e-waste recycling program for the past year via correspondence with our membership;
regulatory agencies; and local and state officials. NC SWANA’s Technical Committee and Lobbyist have taken an active role in
reviewing draft legislation, and attending hearings and committee meetings since the publication of House Bill 765. Additionally,
we have met with Legislators in an attempt to educate them of the impacts repeal of the manufacturer’s responsibility would have
on local solid waste operating budgets. In fact, NC SWANA was instrumental in amending the ratified Bill to remove the repeal
language in place of a Study. NC-DEQ has been tasked with completing this Study prior to the 2016 Legislative Session.
NC SWANA believes that it is in the best interest of our membership to compile information from solid waste facility managers
faced with the issues of cost and processor capacity. Please find and complete the survey found at this
link: www.surveymonkey.com/r/NCSWANAEMPS. It is our goal to compile the data collected from this survey ahead of the
NC-DEQ study, and make the findings available in the Study process. Please submit your response to the survey by January 8,
2016.
The NC SWANA Board of Directors has not taken a position with regards to proposals that would seek to end the electronics
landfill ban; lessen the provisions of the ban; or request a moratorium on the ban at this time. The goals of the Program promote
resource conservation, and environmental stewardship; fundamental tenets of our organization. We do support the position that
the growing gap in Program funding should not be born exclusively by local governments, and that the existing Program is not
sustainable, and has not functioned as intended. Moving forward, it is our goal to continue to educate ourselves and our
membership on the evolution of the e-waste recycling industry and associated programs. We anticipate the NC-DEQ study will
confirm that changes are required to create a sustainable program, and will recommend favorable solutions for local programs.
Should this outcome not be reached, NC SWANA may advocate for additional relief in some form on behalf of our membership.
Also, the attached information sheet provides additional “talking points” regarding the e-waste recycling. Please share this
information with staff, local officials, Legislative Representatives, North Carolina Association of County Commissioners, and
North Carolina League of Municipalities as applicable. From what we have already learned; educating policy makers is one of
the most impactful strategies our industry can utilize to promote sustainable changes to the electronics management program in
North Carolina. Thank you in advance for your time and cooperation in development of the survey data.
Respectfully,
M. Chris Stahl
President, NC SWANA
Additional comments and information for consideration:
-
As referenced in the letter, the State Study is focused on promoting additional funding for the program from manufacturers or
other funding sources to lessen the burden on local operations. While this is a worthy position to take, the viability of this
focus is dubious. It is hard to imagine the NC Legislature would propose ending manufacturer’s responsibility during the
2015 Session, and propose to increase the responsibility levels during the 2016 Session. This reinforces the need to educate
local and state officials, and to seek additional pathways toward creating a sustainable e-waste program.
-
Depending on the success of the Study with regard to financial relief to Counties/Cities; NC SWANA may recommend that
the North Carolina Legislature amend §130a-309.10(k) to include subdivisions (14) and (15) of subsection (f).
§130a-309.10(f)
(14) (Effective July 1, 2011) Discarded computer equipment, as defined in G.S. 130A-309.131.
(15) (Effective July 1, 2011) Discarded televisions, as defined in G.S. 130A-309.131.
§130a-309.10(k) A county or city may petition the Department for a waiver from the prohibition on
disposal of a material described in subdivisions (9), (10), (11) and (12) of subsection (f) of this section in a
landfill based on a showing that prohibiting the disposal of the material would constitute an economic
hardship.
It could be argued that this provision was intended to include electronic wastes as they were not excluded from
previous versions of the Bill; and, the fact that the electronics bans and recycling programs were created after the
original Solid Waste Act. This change would at least create potential pathway for relief to Counties on an individual
basis. Again, NC SWANA does not foresee promoting, or even suggesting any organization take advantage of this
potential amendment. However, it would at least create an additional option for internal discussion for individual local
programs.
Please also find the listed publications for additional information regarding e-waste, and CRT recycling:
NC-DENR: 2013-14 North Carolina Solid Waste and Materials Management Annual Report FY 2013-2014; Electronic
Management Program, pp. 33-36. The Report can be found here:
http://portal.ncdenr.org/c/document_library/get_file?p_l_id=4649434&folderId=23241613&name=DLFE-113296.pdf
- Using tonnage estimates from the report, and anecdotal information on pricing from e-waste processors, the
annual cost for management of televisions will be approximately $5 Million annually, and these estimates do not
include CRT computer monitors.
- Also, please read the Manufacturer’s Responsibilities portion of the report (p.33). It is important to understand
the differences between the computer and television programs.
SWANA Applied Research Foundation Report – The original report is available on the SWANA website for purchase. The
findings are referenced in many subsequent trade magazine articles including:
http://www.solidwastemag.com/features/landfills-control-heavy-metals/
MSW Management September/October 2012:
http://digital.mswmanagement.com/publication/?i=121524&p=20
-
As beneficial as recycling CRTs may be to the environment in recovering raw materials such as copper, the reality
that millions of pounds of these wastes stored in uncontrolled and accessible environments creates a greater
environmental risk than placing them in a lined Subtitle D landfill.
Recycling Today, August 2013: This is a comprehensive article on the generation, processing and capacity issues related to CRT
recycling. There are also numerous additional sources listed in the article citations. The article can be found here:

essing%20in%20the%20U%20S.pdf
Recycling Magazine article on CRT processing capacity, including manufacturing company in India – Videocon:
- As capacity to process and market CRTs has already contributed greatly to the failure of the Electronics
Management Program; potential loss of an additional 70% of the current user market will have massive additional
negative impacts on this program moving forward.

Dear Mr. Stahl,
The 2016 DiscoverE North Carolina Future City Regional Finals will take place on January 23, 2016 at the
McKimmon Center at NC State University in Raleigh, NC. We are currently requesting your support in
sponsoring this competition.
What is the Future City Competition?
40,000 students in grades 6th, 7th, and 8th work in teams with their engineer mentor and educator to imagine,
design, and build cities of the future. Along the way, they learn about engineering and technology, develop their
writing and public speaking skills, practice teamwork, and apply math and science to real world issues.
During the competition student teams:
1. Design a city using SimCity software.
2. Create a 1500-word City Description describing
their city and their solution to this year’s
Waste Not, Want Not challenge.
3. Use recycled materials to build a scale model of
their future city.
4. Present their city to a panel of judges at the
regional competition day.
5. Complete a City Project Plan to help them
organize their city, set team goals, and decide
check-in dates to monitor their progress.
This year’s theme centers on waste management, teams will design an innovative citywide solid waste
management system for their future city that is safe, environmentally sound, and energy efficient. The North
Carolina Regional winning team will compete in the National competition in Washington, DC during
National Engineers Week. Learn more about Future City at www.futurecity.org.
How you can help!
Our goal is to raise $32,000 in corporate sponsorship to cover this year’s competition expenses and the help
you provide would be greatly appreciated. Your support will make this competition a success.
The funds raised will help cover the following expenses:
• Event day venue, lunch and other competition day expenses
• Cash awards for winning schools
• Competition travel funds
• Teacher stipends to cover material expenses they incur
Please review the levels of sponsorship on the attached pledge form.
How we recognize sponsors?
All sponsors are included in our competition day program, and displayed prominently on signage at
competition day. In addition, sponsors will be listed in all NC press releases. We anticipate an
attendance of over 350 middle school students, 50 NC middle school teachers, 250 parents, and 100

Here is my evaluation of the requirements that must be met by NCSWANA in order to be PCI
Compliant to offer credit card payments through our website:
1. We have to declare the type of service we will offer, the simplest being that
StarChapter manages all credit card data. This means our membership enters
CC data into our website (which is not stored by StarChapter). NCSWANA will
not collect, manage or store any CC data. All data is entered online by our
members.
2. A completed questionnaire is required to become PCI compliant. After
answering 63 questions, a T0-Do list was generated to meet the
requirements. See attached.
3. NCSWANA needs, at minimum, to have in place or develop the following: (3)
Policies - Refund (completed), Shipping, and Privacy; as well as Terms and
Conditions; and more detailed Contact Info. I am currently matching our Privacy
Statement, Terms and Conditions, and Contact Info with National SWANAs
website.
4. Additional needs: Formal Security Awareness Program
5. NCSWANA can only use a "Virtual Terminal", which means we conduct all
transactions through the website - no faxes, paper exchanges, receipts, etc.
I requested a Control Scan be conducted on our website, which is s requirement of PCI
Compliance.
I will also coordinate with our account rep at Merchant One for advice on the To-Do
list. Since we will use a "Virtual Terminal", we may be able to remove one or two items
from the list.
After all of the above is addressed, we should be able to generate a single SOP for
offering credit card payment service on the website.
Thanks,
Below are the requirements which you have left to fulfill in order to become PCI compliant.
After addressing these items, log into mycontrolscan.com to complete your SAQ
The security policy and procedures clearly define
information security responsibilities for all personnel.
This requirement applies to any personnel who are physically present at the business location or
otherwise have access to the company's cardholder data environment. "Personnel" includes full-
time and part-time employees, temporary employees, contractors, consultants, vendors, and
business partners.
Update your security policy to ensure that information security responsibilities are clearly
outlined for employees and contractors.
Without clearly defined security roles and responsibilities assigned, there could be inconsistent
interaction with the security group leading to use of outdated or unsecured technologies and an
unsecure credit card processing environment.
Reference: 12.4
A formal security awareness program is in place to make all
personnel aware of the importance of cardholder data
security.
This requirement states that all of your employees must receive a formal security awareness
training. This training should provide your employees with instructions on protecting credit card
information and should address the importance of securing cardholder data.
ControlScan's Security Awareness Training Service will thoroughly train your employees on
how to detect and avoid security threats. This comprehensive program is designed to stimulate
secure behaviors at all levels of your organization so that your network environment and
cardholder data remain secure. Our library of courses utilizes interactive communication
methods to thoroughly educate your employees on the importance of protecting cardholder data.

here</a> to request more information or to purchase.
Create a security awareness training program and have all employees complete it.
If personnel are not educated about their security responsibilities, security safeguards and
processes that have been implemented may become ineffective through errors or intentional
actions.
Reference: 12.6a
A written agreement is maintained with all service providers
that store, process, transmit, or impact the security of
cardholder data. The agreement includes an
acknowledgment that the service providers are responsible
for the security of cardholder data.
The exact wording of an acknowledgement will depend on the agreement between the two
parties, the details of the service being provided, and the responsibilities assigned to each party.
The acknowledgement does not have to include the exact wording provided in this requirement.
Review your contract with each service provider to ensure there is a written agreement regarding
credit card data security.
The acknowledgement by the service providers signals their commitment to maintaining proper
security of cardholder data and thus holds them accountable.
Reference: 12.8.2
There is an established process for engaging service
providers, including proper due diligence prior to
engagement.
In your security policy, establish and document processes and procedures for engaging service
providers. It should include a risk analysis prior to establishing a formal relationship with the
service provider. Ensure these processes and procedures are followed before hiring a service
provider.
An established process better ensures that any engagement of a service provider is thoroughly
vetted internally by the organization, lowering the risk of a data breach.
Reference: 12.8.3
Service providers' PCI DSS compliance status is monitored
at least annually.
Contact all your service providers and ask each one about their compliance status at least once a
year. For example, contact your service provider each time you need to complete an SAQ.
Knowing your service providers' PCI DSS compliance status provides assurance that they
comply with the same requirements that your organization must follow. If the service provider
offers a variety of services, this requirement applies only to those services actually delivered to
you, and only those services in scope for your PCI DSS assessment. For example, if a service
provider offers firewall/IDS and ISP services, a client who utilizes only the firewall/IDS service
would only include that service in the scope of their PCI DSS assessment.
Reference: 12.8.4
Information is maintained about which PCI DSS
requirements are managed by each service provider, and
which are managed by your organization.
Create a document to state which PCI DSS requirements are managed by other companies.
The specific information your organization maintains will depend on the particular agreement
with your providers, the type of service, etc. The intent is for the assessed entity to understand
which PCI DSS requirements their providers have agreed to meet.
Reference: 12.8.5
An incident response plan has been created and is ready for
use in the event of system breach.
Create an incident response plan for use in the event of system breach.
Incident response plans help businesses react quickly to any security breach. An incident
response plan should contain all the key elements to allow your company to respond effectively
in the event of a breach that could impact cardholder data. These elements include designation of
roles to responsible personnel, correction of system vulnerabilities, procedure for notifying card
brands, and necessary steps to restore service and maintain business continuity.

SWANA Launches Safety Ambassador Initiative at Chapter Level
Silver Spring, MD – As part of the expansion of its safety program, the Solid Waste Association
of North America (SWANA) is pleased to announce the launch of its Safety Ambassador initiative
at its 45 chapters in the United States and Canada.
Under this new program, SWANA chapters will identify a member to serve as their Safety
Ambassador. The Safety Ambassador becomes an immediate and useful local resource for other
members to ask questions and get answers about important safety and compliance-related
information. Safety Ambassadors will serve as safety leaders in their chapters, and are likely to
speak at chapter events about how to reduce accidents and injuries.
“This initiative is an important example of SWANA’s effort to make safety part of the DNA of our
association at every level,” said SWANA Executive Director and CEO David Biderman. “By
having Safety Ambassadors in each chapter, members from coast to coast will have a go-to
person for safety-related questions and information. This will be an important component of our
effort to get the industry off of the federal government’s list of 10 most dangerous jobs.”
Several SWANA chapters have already appointed their Safety Ambassador and look forward to
working with their members and other industry professionals to help reduce accidents and
injuries in the solid waste industry.
“Safety related incidents continue to plague our industry at a rate that is way too high,” said
SWANA Florida Chapter’s Safety Ambassador Chad Grecsek. “As the newly appointed Safety
Ambassador for the Florida Chapter, I look forward to this challenge and working with colleagues
both in the public and private sectors to evaluate the data and identify innovative and proven
solutions that aim to reduce health and safety related incidents.”
SWANA’s Safety Ambassador initiative is being sponsored by Alliance Wireless Technology, Inc.
(AWTI).
“AWTI is proud to extend our partnership with SWANA to its new Safety Ambassador Initiative,”
said AWTI/3rd Eye MobileVision President and CEO, Darrick Reed. “Efforts such as this
strengthen and promote the most important principle we must all strive for … making sure every
employee and the public they interface with go home safe EVERYDAY.”

Quad-State 2017
Ladies and Gentlemen,
This may be a repeat for some, but I wanted to contact everyone regarding the 2017 Quad-State
Conference in North Carolina. As many of you may be aware, Quad-State is considered a
Regional Symposia. Therefore, we must meet the schedule requirements required by National
regarding WasteCon. The Policy is attached below. WasteCon 2017 is sited in Baltimore,
MD. Per the first bullet point below, all four states have some area of their Chapters that are
within 500 miles of Baltimore. Thus, we are not able to hold Quad-State in any of our host states
between April and November 2017. I would like to schedule a conference call with all of you in
January (after the holiday madness) to discuss what action to take with regard to this
conflict. NC Past President, Joe Readling, has agreed to host the conference call from his
office. An invitation to the call will follow once scheduled. I propose Tuesday, January 12,
2016 as a potential date. Actual date and time will be based on feedback from you all as to your
availability.
Possible actions for consideration:
1) Postpone Quad-State until Fall 2018 (modify 2-year cycle), or Fall 2019 (maintaining current 2year cycle).
2) Hold Quad-State in March of 2017 or Spring of 2018. I understand that some Chapters only
hold Spring Conferences, so this may not be a good option.
3) Proceed as per our schedule, ignoring the edicts of National. Ok, that one was just to see if you
were still paying attention.
Whatever decision we reach, North Carolina would like to remain the host Chapter for the next
event. I look forward to speaking with everyone and coming up with an amiable solution for all
the Quad-State host Chapters.
Thank you.
Chris Stahl
President, NC SWANA
