Experts at Charles River Associates (NASDAQ: CRAI) published an independent analysis commissioned by Veolia finding that hazardous waste management is a critical input to US economic growth. The report forecasts that a 1% shortfall in management capacity would reduce projected 2033 real gross output by $27 billion, rising to $82 billion under a 3% shortfall, as the US economy adds 5 million tons of annual hazardous waste by 2033 from reshoring and semiconductor and battery growth.
