Recent Developments for Vehicle Dismantlers

Analysis of Vehicle Dismantling Facility Annual Report Data - 2007

One of key provisions of Article 27, Title 23: Vehicle Dismantling Facilities requires that each vehicle dismantling facility (VDF) submits an annual report to the Department detailing the disposition of waste materials generated by dismantling of end-of-life vehicles (ELVs). Operating year 2007 was the first full year for which VDF annual reports were submitted. Please see the NYSDEC Annual Report Data Analysis (PDF, 102 Kb) for the operating year 2007 for a detailed analysis of the data included in these annual reports.
