Product Stewardship
Lead-Acid Batteries

BC’s Lead-acid Battery Collection program, which was launched in 1991 to provide companies with economic support for the transportation of scrap batteries from around the province for processing, is no longer in effect and has been transitioned to an industry product stewardship program.
The Lead-acid Battery product category is now managed in accordance with the stewardship plans approved under the Recycling Regulation. Refer to Schedule 2 of the Recycling Regulation for included products.
