21 <br /> MAINTENANCE (continued) <br /> WASTE MANAGEMENT <br /> 1. Leave grass clippings and other organic materials in place <br /> whenever agronomically possible. If clippings are removed, <br /> compost and, if possible, recycle them. <br /> 2. Dispose of chemical rinsate in a manner that will not increase <br /> the potential for point or non-point source pollution. Methods <br /> include rinsate recycling or"spraying out" diluted compound <br /> in previously untreated areas. <br /> 3. Dispose of chemical packaging according to label directions <br /> (e.g., triple rinsing, recycling or returning to manufacturer). <br /> 4. Other waste products, such as used motor oil, electric batteries <br /> and unused solvents, should be recycled or disposed of <br /> according to the law and available community disposal <br /> techniques. <br /> 5. Seek to reduce waste by purchasing products that minimize <br /> unnecessary packaging. <br /> 14 <br />
