Landfilling these vehicles (with or without decontamination) would be hugely expensive, pose other risks, and take up a lot of landfill space elsewhere.
The quantity of these vehicles represents a huge amount of value that should be preserved as much as possible.
Why it’s important:
Researchers do not fully understand the recycling industry but plan on having the cooperation and assistance of the industry in recycling these vehicles. Failure to understand the industry could doom their efforts.
Important research questions include:
Often, these vehicles are “totaled” and ought not be able to be sold to unsuspecting purchasers
This Workshop made clear via the presentations that government needs to have a good disaster response plan that incorporates lessons learned from (at least) Hurricane Sandy and Fukushima (nuclear disaster). Being unorganized or disorganized is a threat multiplier. Key relationships (including with the recycling industry) need to be made in advance.
