The Pennsylvania 91²Ö¿â Industries Association (PWIA) and its allies at the Keystone Solid 91²Ö¿â Association of North America (SWANA) continue to tackle the growing epidemic of fires caused by the improper disposal of rechargeable lithium batteries in recycling containers and trash bags. A battery stewardship bill, HB 2241, passed in the PA House of Representatives in July 2024 and is currently under review in the PA State Senate. Mary Keenan, President of PWIA, and Kelly Morris, Lancaster County Solid 91²Ö¿â Authority, discuss ways to take a responsible, common-sense approach to public safety and environmental stewardship by passing HB 2241.
