The survey was conducted byWaste360 fromApril 17 toApril 24 us- ing a questionnaire Stifel prepared.There were 144 respondents to 27 questions.The time period covered was the last two weeks in March thru the first two weeks of April.
Recycling Companies Awarded Grants The Department of Environmental Qual- ity’s Recycling Program recently provided $665,630 in recycling business develop- ment grants to 20 North Carolina recy- cling companies.The grants are projected to create 61 jobs and generate more than $2 million in new, private business invest- ments while reducing the state’s depen- dence on landfill disposal. The recycling business grantees are from 16 counties, representing both large and small companies.Types of grant projects awarded include upgrades to material recovery facilities, expanding end-product manufacturing capacity for mixed paper and plastics, and increasing recycling processing for a variety of other materials. Grants were awarded to: AEIPLUS, Inc. : $40,000. AEIPLUS will purchase wash line equipment to clean contaminated agricultural plastics as part of the plastic film recycling process. American Recycling : $60,000. Ameri- can Recycling will purchase a new baler to reduce costs and increase efficiency at the material recovery facility. Bromley Plastics : $60,000.

Two-thirds of respondents are engaged in all aspects of collection and recycling, nearly 30 percent operate a landfill, and 20 percent a MRF. The customer profile of the respondents was nearly 50 percent com- mercial small container and just under 40 percent residential collection (doing 18k trash stops per week and 11k recycling stops per week), less than 10 percent were either permanent or temporary roll-off. Respondents are engaged in all aspects of solid waste collection, disposal and recycling, with nearly 50 percent of the customer count commercial small container customers. The results confirmed what has been widely discussed — residential collection volumes across nearly 50 percent of respondents are up 10 percent to 30 percent

Van Dyk Launches Product To Aid During COVID Crisis Van Dyk Recycling Solutions has accelerated the rollout of a new product designed to help its material recycling facility (MRF) customers get faster, safer and more effective service assistance during the COVID-19 crisis. Called Van Dyk Vision-AR, the augmented reality device is a commu- nication headset that allows the customer to receive guid- ance from the Van Dyk service desk remotely. While wearing the headset, the customer has the ability to call the Van Dyk service desk and speak to an expert tech- nician. The headset is equipped with a small camera and a flashlight, which highlights what the customer is looking at and records their field of vision.The camera streams this foot- age to a computer at the Van Dyk desk in real time so the technician can see what the customer sees. This approach is designed to improve MRF troubleshooting and allow op- erators to get to a diagnosis quickly and without confusion. In addition to seeing the customer’s field of vision, the Van Dyk technician can use augmented reality technology to give the customer directives for problem solving. Specif- ically, the Van Dyk technician can superimpose arrows, cir- cles and other digital elements onto the customer’s display pod, which is a small computer positioned in front of the wearer’s eye,which appears as a 7-inch tablet screen.When digital elements are superimposed over the camera stream, the customer can better understand where to go and what to do to fix issues.

NWRA Urges Congress To Prioritize Recycling
In a letter sent to congressional leaders May 5, the Nation- alWaste & RecyclingAssociation (NWRA) calls upon legisla- tors to prioritize critical infrastructure industries, including waste and recycling, in the next COVID-19 relief package that Congress will take up soon.The Department of Home- land Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) designated the waste collection industry as essential in March. “During this national emergency, NWRA member com- panies have been classified as essential and are listed un- der five different ‘essential critical infrastructure workers’ headings in the CISA 3.0 guidelines,” said NWRA President and CEO Darrell Smith. “They will, therefore, continue providing waste and recycling services to their customers and communities in order to protect the public’s health and safety.We need congressional action on access to crit- ical personal protective equipment (PPE). Furthermore, in some instances, our member companies are not being compensated for their services because the business- es they serve are shut down as a result of the pandem- ic. We urge Congress to address these issues in the next COVID-19 relief package.” NWRA has retained The Vogel Group,Washington, to as- sist in its lobbying efforts. The Vogel Group is involved in COVID-19 response engagement and has ample experience working with legislators, according to the NWRA. NWRA Accepting Recycling Awards Applications The National Waste & Recycling Association is accept- ing applications for its 2020 recycling awards.The NWRA Recycling Awards recognize companies, organizations or individuals that have made a significant impact in the waste and recycling industry. They are intended to cele- brate achievements and commitment, as well as provide inspiration for others. The six trophies will be presented at the association’s Ex- ecutive Leadership Roundtable October 27-29, 2020 inTuc- son,AZ.The deadline for applications is July 1, 2020. Voith Group Completes Toscotec Acquisition After all required regulatory approvals were received, Voith Group completed the acquisition of Toscotec S.p.A. on April 30, 2020. Toscotec will continue to offer its portfolio as established. The company will remain entrepreneurial in nature and will operate under the established Toscotec brand. In the area of tissue,Toscotec will carry out the business with new lines and major rebuilds for the whole Voith Group in the future.Voith Paper will continue to serve its delivered tissue machines.All other business activities will remain unaffect- ed, and Voith and Toscotec customers will be able to pur- chase via their existing sales channels as usual.

ISRI Celebrates Rail Network Ruling
Buyer’s Guide BALERS (HORIZONTAL)
The Washington-based Institute of Scrap Recycling Indus- tries (ISRI) is calling a lateApril ruling by the federal Surface Transportation Board (STB)“a major win for the scrap indus- try.” ISRI has been making a case that railroad operators had been placing “excessive demurrage charges” and providing “inconsistent rail service” to recyclers who ship by rail. “Following a hard-fought battle, scrap recyclers won a major victory toward improving the nation’s rail network for shippers and railroads alike,” stated ISRI. “In a series of decisions, the STB rebuked the railroads for unreasonable practices combined with nontransparent, inaccurate billing and an unfair dispute resolution process.” “The decisions come after years of public comments, tes- timony, outreach on Capitol Hill and other advocacy efforts by ISRI and its members,” said ISRI. “Unreasonable practices by railroads have cost the scrap recycling industry tens of millions of dollars annually, and caused interruptions in the manufacturing supply chain,” said Billy Johnson, chief lobbyist for ISRI.“ISRI and its mem- bers fought for a level playing field and to have their voices heard, and won.The recycling industry appreciates the STB providing an avenue to address our concerns and taking rea- sonable measures to correct the behavior of the railroads.” Following the implementation of an operational method called precision schedule railroading (PSR) at the start of 2019 by several Class 1 railroads, shippers began facing in- creased demurrage charges “hundreds of times larger than in previous years,” said ISRI. In some instances,demurrage charges increased from 600 to 1,000 percent year over year, ISRI said. Additionally, shippers had“no realistic way to challenge these demurrage charges be- cause the railroads maintained inaccurate and confusing billing information,”the association added.Based on the lateApril STB decisions, railroads must develop more accurate billing, reli- able and reasonable practices to avoid demurrage charges and make it easier for shippers to challenge those charges. “The STB’s rulings will allow for a better and more fair partnership between recyclers and railroads,” Johnson said. “When issues do occur, there will be a fair way to resolve disputes.This ensures that valuable commodity-grade scrap materials will consistently be delivered to manufacturers for the use in new everyday products.” DuPont Water Solutions Scientists Receive Award DuPontWater Solutions scientists Dr. Steven Jons,Dr.Tina Ar- rowood, and Dr. Steve Rosenberg, recently received the presti- gious American Chemical Society (ACS) Heroes of Chemistry Award, representing generations of technology advancement in the field of water filtration and membrane science. All three chemists were recognized for their key contribu- tions to the development and commercialization of nanofil- tration products for the purification of municipal drinking water, treatment of offshore oil and gas production water, dairy production, and wastewater reuse.

COVID-19 Survey (Cont’d from Page 1) and commercial collection volumes are down across two- thirds of those surveyed with 38 percent of the custom- ers on a service-on-hold or cancelation. Even permanent roll-off has about 30 percent of customers on a service-on- hold or cancelation. It has been widely reported in the mainstream media the impact of stay-at-home on residential collection volumes. The survey validates these observations. The service pro- file of respondents is nearly 40 percent ASL (automated side-loaders) with 62 percent rear-loader/physical pick-up of which three- quarters of those are take-all services (what- ever is put on the curb they have to take). Of the customer mix two-thirds have a separate recycling pick-up and nearly 30 percent have a third pick-up. Two-thirds of the responses had increased volume, of which 57 percent of the volume increase was between 10 percent and more than 30 percent.Three-quarters of the re- sponses could not pass through the added cost of increased volume to the customer. Two-thirds of the responses saw a decrease in commercial collection volume. More than 45 percent of the responses had a volume decline greater than 25 percent and nearly 30 percent had no decrease (22 percent) or an increase (7 percent). Nearly two-third of the customers did not seek a service change and only 9 percent actually canceled. Under 60 percent of responses experienced a reduction in volume while 44 percent were flat (32 percent) or up (12 percent). Across the customer base 27 percent had a volume decline greater than 25 percent. Only 5 percent of the customers sought to cancel and 24 percent requested a service-on-hold. The end market mix correlates well with the reduction in pulls with 66 percent in residential (27 percent) and com- mercial construction (39 percent). The remainder is infra- structure which has held up well thru the Great Shutdown. Within the responses 45 percent had a decline in roll-off pulls of 20 percent to 50 percent. Stifel asked respondents to frame the operating cost as fixed versus variable and then to rank order of the variable which would they adjust first and the most. Not surprising 49 percent of responses picked labor and labor overtime of which 35 percent had 10 percent to 20 percent of la- bor costs was overtime. Fuel and maintenance were both mid-thirties with volume based costs (disposal) next at 25 percent and layoffs an option with 25 percent having done so already. Only 44 percent of respondents have not parked equip- ment (either trucks or containers) in the time period mea- sured.And of those that have parked equipment 41 percent had idled up to 50 percent of trucks and 33 percent up to 50 percent of containers. Only 37 percent of responses are not changing their cap- ital spending plans at this time.And of those that are nearly half are just delaying for now not canceling. Nearly two- thirds of responses reduced or delayed truck spending and two-thirds cut container spending while only 41 percent delayed container spending.

Only 15 percent of the respondents are a seller of their business and of those nearly 70 percent have put that pro- cess on hold with nearly 60 percent stating both lower valuation, and they do not know what EBITDA or monthly recurring revenue is being sold as the basis. Conversely, 44 percent of buyers are delaying purchases with two-thirds unsure of what they are buying at this time. Just more than 60 percent of respondents had less report- able incidents in the time period measured.The risk data is counter to early indications in March of increased accident frequency. $4M C&D Recycling Center Proposed In Michigan Mulder’s Landscape Supplies Inc. andWaste Not Recycling LLC, both headquartered in Kalamazoo, Michigan, have pro- posed plans for a construction and demolition (C&D) re- cycling facility and transfer station in Kalamazoo Township, Michigan. According to MLive, the $4 million, 20,000-square-foot fa- cility would reside on five acres and employ 20 full-time workers.All recycling operations would be housed indoors. If approved, construction could begin on the project later this year or in early 2021, with estimated completion later next year. Advanced Recycling Alliance For Plastics Launched The American Chemistry Council’s Chemical Recycling Alliance has changed its name to theAdvanced RecyclingAl- liance for Plastics (ARAP) to reflect its growing membership and variety of members’ advanced recycling technologies. ARAP also announced three new members: GreenMantra Technologies, Chevron Phillips Chemical and Ravago Re- cycling Group.ARAP is at the forefront in representing the rapidly growing advanced recycling and recovery sector for plastics. Tissue Production Reaches Record-High Levels The American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA),Wash- ington, reports that the U.S. tissue and wood products indus- try set record-high levels of tissue production in February and March. According to AF&PA, U.S. tissue mills manufactured about 700,000 tons of tissue in March. Heidi Brock, President and CEO of AF&PA, said more tissue was produced in March than any other month since 2007, which is when AF&PA began collecting this historical data. Additionally, AF&PA states that its members safely deliv- ered more than 22,000 tons of tissue per day in February and March. Brock said record-high levels of tissue production are tied to demand from the COVID-19 pandemic.
