Comstock’s Metals Corporation has received conditional approval from the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection – Bureau of Sustainable Materials Management (NDEP-BSMM) for the processing of waste solar panels and PVs in its new materials recovery facility located in Silver Springs.

The company now has the required permits to complete the installation of process equipment, and to test, commission and startup the material recovery facility. This includes technologies for crushing, conditioning, extracting and recycling metal concentrates from PVs. Comstock Metals has also begun accepting receipt of materials for processing.

“We appreciate BSMM’s efforts in issuing our final permit and enabling the first Nevada-based, zero-landfill, end-of-life solar panel solution serving this broad region,” says Dr. Fortunato Villamagna, Comstock Metals Corporation president. “We have begun receiving waste panels into our facility and have commenced commissioning activities. We are seeing larger than initially expected customer inquiries as waste panels are becoming rapidly available from many different sources and accelerating our ramp up efforts.”

Eventually, we will have laws that force companies whose actions are ruining the planet to pay for the remediation that must happen to avert environmental collapse. In the meanwhile, we need to expect the fossil fuel industry to continue its ruthless legal attack such legislation.

The idea expressed at left, i.e., that Trump’s arch–or any single action Trump has taken towards self-aggrandizement is causing is approval rate to plummet–is fallacious.

Sure, a great many of his similar efforts, e.g., putting his name on the Kennedy Center, or issuing coins with his image on them, rankled our souls as Americans.

But let’s face facts, Trump’s approval rating is hovering at just above 30%, meaning that about one-third of U.S. voters don’t care that he’s a petty, spoiled child, a convicted felon, and one of the most despicable people in the history of humankind.
