SECTION 13 – DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS

land filling.
SECTION 14 – TRANSPORT INFORMATION
In general, all batteries in all forms of transportation (ground, air, or ocean) must be packaged in a safe and responsible manner. Regulatory concerns
from all agencies for safe packaging require that batteries be packaged in a manner that prevents short circuits and be contained in “strong outer
packaging” that prevents spillage of contents. All original packaging for Energizer or Eveready carbon zinc batteries has been designed to be compliant
with these regulatory concerns.

ICAO Technical Instructions and the U.S. hazardous materials regulations (49 CFR). These batteries are not subject to the dangerous goods regulations
