As a cost center manager in an engineering environment several years
ago, I faced the same situation--gross volumes of `used' high-speed
printouts and other paper being produced in volume. As I recall,
the result of our investigation into whether we could recycle this
stuff was an extended meeting with Corp Security. In the end, we
did not recycle paper (test results, other proprietary data was
a consideration--it would have been too manpower intensive on our
part to meet security requirements). BUT-- your situation may be
much different, and company requirements (security & otherwise)
have probably changed.
Security is probably a good place to start, anyway. Good luck!

| Before you get rid of the paper, you should check to see if Corporate
(as in Company-wide) Retention Schedules have been established for
those records.
Contact Corp. Records Administration in NRO2-1/I38. The back of
the Telephone Directory lists three numbers: 234-5253, 5352 or 5269.
Say hello to Elna Johnson for me.

| 894.5 | We use Shredders... | JACOB::FAZIO | | Fri Aug 18 1989 21:52 | 14 |
| We have black boxes all over the Mill for disposal of sensitive
information. My understanding is that this paper somehow gets burned
in a N.H. facility to destroy the information and provide heat....but
there is a lot of manual intervention between initial disposal and
final distruction, so in Worksystems we purchased shredders and then
recycle the remains. The shredders are cross cut not strip type and do
a very effective job.
As far as the rules for retention and how to classify, stamp and
distribute various documents you can contact the Corporate security
Program Office. They have specific guidelines for this purpose. It is
headed by Dave Hamilton.

I have started a recycling program here in the Santa Clara training
facility for non company sensitive waste paper. At this point it
is benefiting the participating cost centers. It's just beginning
to get off the ground, but has been very successful. I'm in the
process of trying to get other departments within the cluster involved
in our employee recycling effort. If you want more information,
I would be more than happy to share all I know.
Regards,

I read most of this topic and it's not encouraging. Setting up this program
required a lot of work by a lot of people and required a lot of cooperation be-
tween Facilities, Security, managers, etc. One statement that threw me is that
all money paid by recyclers is supposed to go to the corporate Employee Activi-
ties group. It appears that this rule doesn't apply in Calif., which leads to a
question: How wide a region does this rule cover? Westford is part of "Greater
Maynard", I think. The base note was written by someone in CT (I had to trace
the area code to find this out), so the rule might not apply there.
Why can't DEC plants keep the money they receive from recyclers, no matter
where they are located? Without a financial incentive on their own bottom line,
it's very hard for a plant manager to justify the open and hidden costs of re-
cycling.
