PART 4—ENERGY EFFICIENCY BY USE OF RECOVERED MATERIALS SEC. 461. USE OF RECOVERED MATERIALS. 42 USC 6344a (a) F I N D I N G S. — The Congress finds that— (1) significant amounts of industrial energy and other scarce note. natural resources are conserved in certain major energy-consuming industries where recovered materials are utilized in their manufacturing operations; (2) substantial additional volumes of industrial energy and other scarce natural resources will be conserved in future years if such major energy-consuming industries increase to the maximum feasible extent utilization of recovered materials in their manufacturing operations; (3) millions of tons of recoverable materials which could be used by such industries are needlessly wasted and buried each year at great cost to State and local governments, while technology and methods exist whereby those materials could readily be made available for utilization; and (4) the recovery and utilization of such recovered materials can substantially reduce the dependence of the United States on foreign natural resources and reduce the growing deficit in its balance of payments. (b) PURPOSES.—The purposes of this subtitle are to conserve valuable energy and scarce n a t u r a l resources, promote the national security, and protect the environment by— (1) directing that targets for increased industrial utilization of recovered materials be established for certain major energy-consuming industries; (2) creating procedures whereby such industries may cooperate with the Federal Government in the establishment and achievement of such t a r g e t s; and (3) providing incentives for increased industrial utilization of energy-saving recovered materials in such major energy-consuming industries.
