Recycling

In 2008, OUC Recycled:

• 4,000 lbs. lead acid/Ni Cad equipment batteries
• 504 PCs, laptops, monitors, printers and other computer equipment
• 1,098 lbs. of spent mercury-containing fluorescent tube bulbs
• 2,039 lbs. of electronic scrap
• 24,494 gallons of waste transformer oil from Stanton Energy Center

Going forward, OUC is planning a number of new green initiatives. In conjunction with the City of Orlando, we are moving toward Single Stream Recycling (all recyclables in one bin) and developing internal policies such as electronic document storage, online document review, double-sided printing, and using recycled paper and office products.
