| Oil Absorbant Ban | | |
As of January 1, 2011 oil absorbents and used oil filters are banned from landfills. This ban applies to everyone in the state, including individuals, farmers, businesses, commercial or industrial facilities, and other organizations. The law does not exempt any groups or classes of individuals. An exception is made in the ban to allow the disposal of up to one gallon of oil absorbent materials from a non-routine spill. A gallon of material is the amount that would fit inside a dry gallon container.
The Department of Natural Resources states recycling is the preferred method of disposing of these items and suggest residents contact businesses that perform oil changes or sell oil and oil filters as many of them will accept used filters. For more information visit the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources website. |
