The lead battery industry's proactive approach to working with state and federal regulators on environmental regulatory and legislative issues has proven to be a successful tool in producing a high recycling rate for lead-acid batteries. The reverse distribution system set up by the battery industry to collect and recycle lead-acid batteries alleviates the concerns raised by governmental agencies and environmental groups over how the batteries are handled. Not only does the industry benefit from better public relations as a result of their commitment to ensure a high recycling rate, it also provides a reliable source of recyclable materials necessary to operate battery recycling facilities.
