42 U.S.C. § 6901a.

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.
