Committee hears broad support — and technical concerns — for battery stewardship program to reduce fires and landfill risk HB 16 02 would create a battery stewardship program funded and run by producers to improve collection, recycling, and safety for removable batteries (including lithium-ion).

New Hampshire's new battery recycling bill aims to tackle fire risks and costs for municipalities, but will it balance producer interests with recycler independence?
