The Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) presented Ray's Auto Parts Inc., located at 9653 South State Road 19 in Amboy, Ind. , with its fifth Indiana Clean Yard - Gold Level award in recognition of the company’s efforts to protect the environment.
IDEM Senior Environmental Engineer Hani Sharaya presented a commemorative certificate to Ray's Auto Parts President Michael Hierholzer during a site visit.
Salvage yards receive and store wrecked vehicles containing antifreeze, gasoline, oil, brake fluid, transmission fluid, batteries, mercury switches, and tires. If not managed properly, wrecked vehicles stockpiled in salvage yards can pose an environmental threat. IDEM is committed to helping auto salvage recyclers ensure environmental protection.
IDEM has partnered with Automotive Recyclers of Indiana, Inc. (ARI) to develop the "Indiana Clean Yard" recognition program to reward auto salvage yard operators who meet two different levels of requirements: “Indiana Clean Yard” and “Indiana Clean Yard - Gold Level.”
