Flooded Battery Disposal
Lead-acid batteries can be recycled. Return whole scrap batteries to a distributor,
manufacturer or lead smelter for recycling. For neutralized spills, place residue in acid-
resistant containers with absorbent material, sand or earth and dispose of in accordance with
local, state and federal regulations for acid and lead compounds. Contact local and/or state
environmental officials regarding disposal information. You can also contact GEM Customer
Service for information. See page 5.
