undertaking to clean up what was left there by the old business (e.g. underground tanks) even though if the property is never redeveloped the impact of the existing stuff is never addressed (e.g. those old tanks rusting away and contaminating the ground water
with whatever might still be in them). I don’t really agree with this view though – it would be way to easy for one “corporation” to “sell” property to another “corporation” that has pretty much the same owners as a way to avoid having to address environmental
issues. If the property is valuable enough to redevelop chances are its valuable enough to do the necessary cleanup.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

I do not know if the LED's have any hazardous materials in them that would require their disposal as hazardous wastes. But I would not be surprised if they did.<br>
Wouldn't most manufactured in the last 10 years fall under RoHS?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size:
12.0pt">Probably, but there is another issue that is ignored. The manufacturing process creates waste streams that must be handled. How nasty these are compared to fly ash disposal
with coal I do not know. I have not seen anyone actually look at this.<br>
<br>
A similar problem exists with electric cars. Besides the problems of battery life/range, you have disposal of the batteries, manufacturing of the batteries, and the extra load on the electric grid. Each will add potential environmental issues. Whether they
are worse than the problems of internal combustion engines, again I have seen anyone actually address.
