PROPOSED PROGRAM TO COLLECT AND RECYCLE
USED AUTOMOTIVE OIL AND FILTERS
I. Proposed Work Program
The program will provide the public and municipal maintenance
personnel with environmentally safe, easily accessible, and
centrally located stations for used oil recycling. Most of the
program area population is over the Edwards Aquifer and all is in
the buffer zone. One of the goals of this program is to protect
the Edwards Aquifer and surface waters from waste oil
contamination. An awareness campaign showing the need and benefits
of properly handling waste oil will be incorporated into the City's
overall recycling and resource protection program. Public
participation will be encouraged through newspaper articles, public
service announcements on cable and local televisions stations,
posters and promotional activities setup at the recycling sites and
point of DIY oil sale locations. Promotional activities will
include "kick -off" week materials and activities as well as long
term reward incentives for program participation.
The Round Rock Environmental logo, already in use with other City
activities, will be incorporated into the waste oil recycling
program. Of all DIY oil currently sold within the program area,
only about 10% is currently being recycled. The program should
double to triple the quantity of DIY oil being recycled in the
first year and a steady increase is expected as the overall
recycling campaign evolves.
II. Collection Centers
The five (5) proposed collection sites will incorporate user
friendly, double contained collection equipment. Proposed sites
selected will include two (2) publicly operated sites, which are
currently available for DIY collection and three (3) area fire
stations. This will allow personnel already stationed at the site
to provide a degree of control and maintenance of the centers at a
minimal additional cost. The facilities will be open for limited
operating hours and will provide information regarding procedures,
goals, and incentive programs connected with the program.
A sign -in log will be incorporated into the information /instruct-
ional signs and an incentive award program will be linked to proper
completion of log entries. The Round Rock Environmental logo (see
attached sketch) will be prominently displayed on all equipment and
signs. The area will be designed to control, prevent and contain
any spillage.
A contract will be negotiated between a waste oil hauler and the
City to recycle the oil and collect the filters. A 55 gallon drum
will hold approximately 400 crushed filters and will cost between
$50.00 and $75.00 per drum to be collected. H & H Waste Oil and
Industrial Lube Specialties are waste oil recyclers currently
serving the Round Rock area. They do not currently charge a fee
for the collection of used oil or for brokeraging recycling of
"non- spec" oil, which has failed RCRA required disposal analysis.
Waste oil that becomes contaminated with hazardous waste will be
picked up by a hazardous waste contractor.
III. Personnel
Day -to -day management of the waste oil collection program will be
the responsibility of the program manager. The city will contract
for a program manager at three - quarter time the first year of the
program and half -time for the second year. The program manager
will be responsible for overseeing the installation of the
collection equipment, developing a written standard operating
procedure for the program including management of the collection
sites and recordkeeping, and inspecting the collection sites. In
addition, the program manager will be responsible for ensuring that
the collection sites are properly operated and arranging for the
transport of the waste oil and used filters. The program manager
will also develop publicity and educational materials such as
flyers, posters, signs, and incentive programs, as well as making
public presentations.
City staff that will work with the waste oil collection program
include the Director of Public Works and Environmental Services
Division staff, fire department personnel, city inspection
officers, and clerical staff (see city organizational chart). The
city attorney, under contract with the city, will provide support
from time to time on legal issues.
IV. Equipment
The program manager will track the day -to -day as well as overall
progress of the program with the aid of a computerized data
management system. This system will also be used to design
publication materials such flyers, posters, incentive programs, and
signs.
The Kosmos Recycling Igloo (see diagram) incorporates a 360 gallon
primary polyethylene oil reservoir and a polyethylene secondary
containment barrier. The igloo also includes a level gauge, water-
proof locking lid and a temperature activated fire extinguisher.
The Oberg filter press (see diagram) will empty crushed filters
directly into a 55 gallon drum and any excess oil squeezed from the
filters will be plumbed to go directly into the kosmos used oil
container. This crusher is designed to prevent improper use and
will be modified to lock out operation during off hours and prevent
tampering with the collection barrel.
The computer system will be based on a small, but efficient
Macintosh laptop computer so that the program manager can carry it
from site -to -site if needed for direct entry of data or notes. The
computer will be powerful enough to run the software needed for the
waste oil program: minimum requirements are 8 Mb of RAM, 80 Mb
internal hard disk, and one 3.25 -inch internal floppy drive. A
small laser printer will complete the hardware needed for this
program.
For software, the program manager will require a spreadsheet
application, (Microsoft Excel), word processing software (Microsoft
Word), a drawing program (Claris MacDraw Pro), and a desktop
publishing program (Aldus Pagemaker). The spreadsheet application
will be used to record the participation at the different
locations, budget items, loads of waste oil and filters picked up
by contractors, effectiveness of incentive programs, and so on.
Word processing software will be used for correspondence, reports,
and simple desktop publishing of education materials such as flyers
and incentive registration slips. A drawing program will also be
used to prepare educational flyers, posters, and signs placed at
the collection centers that require graphics. The desktop
publishing program will be used to generate production ready
materials such as flyers, posters and pamphlets.
V. Contractors
The program manager, as described in the Personnel Section, will be
contracted by the City. The City will also contract for
installation of the equipment and signs at the collection sites and
transport of waste oil and used filters. In the event that any of
the waste oil is accidentally contaminated with solvents, thinners,
or other prohibited materials, the city will also contract for the
transport and disposal of contaminated used oil.
VI. Public Awareness Campaign
The City will use its existing public information network by
placing materials on the local waste oil program and those from the
regional LCRA and the U.S. EPA in the Round Rock Public Library.
Public information materials generated for the local program will
be distributed via the Public Library, the Public Works Department
and the Chamber of Commerce with posters and flyers distributed as
appropriate to local retail oil sales outlets. The Round Rock High
School Environmental Club will assist with developing broadcasts,
contests and distribution of educational materials. Specific
campaign materials will be as follows:
1. The Round Rock Environmental Logo: The logo, which was
already developed through a contest sponsored by the Round
Rock Public Library and the high school's environmental club,
will be modified to incorporate an oil recycling symbol. The
modified emblem will be used to increase name identification
for the campaign and to link the oil recycling to other
recycling efforts. Emblem decals will be placed on all oil
collection equipment, displayed at collection sites and placed
on promotional and educational literature.
2. Waste Oil Fair: The campaign will begin in the fall with a
half -day Waste Oil Fair held on a Saturday. The Fair will be
publicized through the local newspaper and a water bill insert
mailed to all households and business customers of the Round
Rock Water and Wastewater Department. The fair will feature
informational displays and demonstrations designed to show
proper oil collection and deposit technique.
Attendance will be promoted through a kick -off one -day give-
away of promotional items such as funnels and decals to
participants attending the demonstrations or depositing waste
oil for recycling.
3. Telephone information: The Public Works Department will
maintain information regarding the operation of all sites
including hours, locations and procedures. Similar information
will be given to the Public Library Reference Department- -
making the information available during night and weekend
periods. The information will be updated by project staff as
the campaign progresses.
4. Media: A main function of the project- funded staff will be to
develop the necessary procedures, press releases, newspaper
articles, radio and TV public service announcements, paid
media advertising copy, and serve as the media coordinator.
The plan includes a local paid advertising campaign during
selected months in order to guarantee placement during hours
of high potential viewership by the target population. Efforts
will be made to acquire donated advertising assistance.
5. Education: The project staff will make instructional
presentations to the general public, service organizations
and clubs about the program operation and the environmental
hazards of oil. At least one locally - targeted informational
brochure will be produced for mass distribution. An exhibit
will be prepared and displayed in the Round Rock Public
Library and would then be available for loan /display at other
sites.
6. Printed materials and signs: Posters, signs, instruction
brochures and incentive award information carrying the logo
will be available at collection sites, public buildings and
oil sales businesses.
7. Incentives Program:
a. Initial give -away during the Waste Oil Fair of
promotional items appropriate for recycling use by the
public and marked with the logo.
b. Monthly drawing for a $25 prize awarded to a participant
who correctly completed the oil deposit collections log.
c. Semi - annual award certificate for the site with the
highest number of individuals participating.
d. Annual award certificate to the site where the most spec
oil was collected.
