PREFACE
This study ofscrap tire management in Ontario was sponsored by the Ontario Ministry ofthe
Environment (OMOE). While the study was under way the study team met, on a monthly
basis with the Task Force for Scrap Tire Disposal to review progress and to discuss the work
that was scheduled for the next month. Task force members are drawn from the tire
manufacturing industry, tire dealers, the OMOE, municipalities, and the environmental
movement. The Task force provided the study team with invaluable insights into scrap tire
management practices in Ontario and helped to identify the key stakeholders in the
management ofOntario's scrap tires. The contribution ofthe members ofthe task force is
gratefully acknowledged.
