"The wastes from pesticide formulators going ultimately to landfill consist principally of containers, cartons, bags and fibreboard drums. Based on information provided by the formulators, there are some 80,000,000 lbs of pesticides formulated annually in Ontario (1974) and the container wastes amount to 20 lbs/1000 lbs of formulations. 75% of this waste is landfilled at Burlington and Hamilton municipal landfill sites"--Abstract.
