Lithium-ion Car Battery Recycling Advisory Group

 

The Lithium-ion Car Battery Recycling Advisory Group was created to advise the Legislature on policies pertaining to the recovery and recycling of lithium-ion vehicle batteries sold with motor vehicles in the state. It is being led by the California Environmental Protection Agency (CalEPA), the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC), and the Department for Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle).


Additional members come from the environmental community, auto dismantlers, public and private representatives involved in the manufacturing, collection, processing and recycling of electric vehicle batteries, and other interested parties.


The advisory group was formed in 2019 in response to Assembly Bill 2832 (Dahle, 2018).

Inmate Staff Spotlight: Brandon We want to take a moment to highlight the community outreach that our inmate staff has done in the past. Featured in local news is Brandon, standing on the left of the above image, who takes up a leadership role in activities and conversations held between CTF Inmates and Palma High School students. They both serve as each other's role models by discussing each other's past and the choices they made to get where they are now. The students avoid taking similar actions the led the inmates down a dark path and the inmates learn what positive actions the students are taking in order bring themselves on the right path. It’s a successful and flourishing program that continues to this day. We are proud to support inmates like Brandon by providing them with an opportunity for them to learn valuable skills and work experience that they can in turn use on the outside to earn an honest living when they are released. Surplus Service is honored to make a difference for Brandon and many other of our Incarcerated Individual employees as part of our Certified California Apprenticeship program.
