# 42 U.S.C. § 6901a - Congressional findings: used oil recycling
## Text
The Congress finds and declares that—
(1) used oil is a valuable source of increasingly scarce energy and materials;
(2) technology exists to re-refine, reprocess, reclaim, and otherwise recycle used oil;
(3) used oil constitutes a threat to public health and the environment when reused or disposed of improperly; and
that, therefore, it is in the national interest to recycle used oil in a manner which does not constitute a threat to public health and the environment and which conserves energy and materials.
(Pub. L. 96463, § 2, Oct. 15, 1980, 94 Stat. 2055.)
## Notes
Editorial Notes
Codification Section was enacted as part of the Used Oil Re­cycling Act of 1980, and not as part of the Solid Waste Disposal Act which comprises this chapter.
