I
called
to
ask
about
the
minimum
charge
assumptions
they
experienced
in
handling
F006.
According
to
the
1995
BRS
they
generate
about
26
tons
per
year
of
F006–
I
was
told
that
that
has
increased–
they
generate
about
a
tote
per
week
(a
tote
being
a
super
sack).
They
do
still
recycle–
the
F)
006
has
a
significant
copper.
It
goes
to
21
st
Century
in
NV.

The
material
is
picked
up
by
21
st
Century–
they
basically
ship
every
other
moth.
He
said
they
pay
a
$75
charge
for
transport
and
about
$275
per
ton
for
recycling.
He
did
not
think
landfilling
was
allowed.
If
the
rule
changed,
they
would
undoubtedly
reduce
their
costs,
partly
by
using
a
different
storage
system
(roll
off
bins
instead
of
the
super
sacks).

Basically
the
totes
use
up
a
lot
of
room
and
they
have
to
ship
before
getting
a
full
load.
With
an
extension
of
the
accumulation
period,
they
would
probably
go
to
a
roll
off
bin.
