Recycler Fined for Burning Wood Pallets

By , About.com GuideMay 14, 2011

Follow me on:

No good deed goes unpunished, the old saying goes, especially when you light an open fire without the required permit. A Troy Michigan electronics recycling business was fined after assisting at a city-sponsored Earth Day recycling event. Employees of the company were spotted burning wooden pallets in the open by investigators from the state Department of Environmental Conservation.

The company agreed to a $750 fine. An official of the e-recycling firm said that the company was assisting during the Earth Day recycling event and there were excess wooden pallets left behind. The city could not accept the pallets so company workers burned them. The recycler did not have a burning permit and paid the fine to resolve the matter.

The accumulation of pallets can be a nuisance for some businesses, but often it takes just a phone call to have a pallet recycling business pick them up, especially if they are of a popular size, even for wood, plastic or metal pallets. For removing oddball pallet sizes or other scrap wood packaging there may be a fee, but increasingly, this material will be taken by recyclers for grinding and use in a range of products.

I thought I would make everyone aware of a few different types of scams going on at the moment. They revolve around a beautiful but helpless Filipina girl who has lost everything due to a natural disaster of some kind such as flooding – but somehow still has Internet and banking. As mentioned before the easiest way to stay immune to being scammed is to just not send money. If you need to arrange flights then buy the actual flight tickets and don’t send money and let them do it. Common sense is a good guide but sometimes it is helpful to be aware of the most recent tactics used by these fake profile Filipinas in their attempts to part you from your hard earned cash!

A continuous count of layers exists back as far as 160,000 years. In addition to yearly layering, individual strong events (such as large-scale volcanic eruptions) can be observed and correlated between ice cores. A number of historical eruptions as far back as Vesuvius nearly 2,000 years ago serve as benchmarks with which to determine the accuracy of the yearly layers as far down as around 500 meters. As one goes further down in the ice core, the ice becomes more compacted than near the surface, and individual yearly layers are slightly more difficult to observe. For this reason, there is some uncertainty as one goes back towards 100,000 years. Ages of 40,000 years or less are estimated to be off by 2% at most. Ages of 60,000 years may be off by up to 10%, and the uncertainty rises to 20% for ages of 110,000 years based on direct counting of layers (D. Meese et al., J. Geophys. Res. 102, 26,411, 1997). Recently, absolute ages have been determined to 75,000 years for at least one location using cosmogenic radionuclides chlorine-36 and beryllium-10 (G. Wagner et al., Earth Planet. Sci. Lett. 193, 515, 2001). These agree with the ice flow models and the yearly layer counts. Note that there is no indication anywhere that these ice caps were ever covered by a large body of water, as some people with young-Earth views would expect.
