You should state that from 3-8 pounds of lead are in the picture tubes of =
color monitors and color TV sets. (Some people have no idea what a CRT =
is.)

Dear Eileen,=20
I am responding more as a survey writer than as a waste professional.=20
Despite great anecdotal evidence to support this supposition, I submit =
that
choice "c" should be modified to read "who will likely pass it on" or
probably , or some other modifier. That is, unless 100% of all
manfuacturers of items that might possibly be recycled have stated "c"
(unmodified) as their position. Anything less and you may run into a bit =
of
flack from these manufacturers if they choose to take exception.=20
You may also want to clarify in the question (and I don't have the full
instrument before me so therefore lack context) that CRTs and monitors =
cost
more than traditional recycleables due to the presence of toxics. Simply
stating "more" (a comparative) without the standard it is being compared =
to
can confuse the respondents.=20
Hope these suggestions help.=20
