With your help, Newton County has reduced waste going into the landfill by 37.9% since 1990. Neighborhood Recycling Centers are not equipped to handle large volumes of waste materials from one source. Large truck loads and multi-loads of bulk waste will not be accepted and should be taken directly to the landfill.
First-degree burns cause red skin, but second-degree burns cause blisters. Anything that gives skin a second-degree burn will cause burn blisters. Common examples include scalding from boiling water or hot oil, or even very bad sunburn.
Splashes and spills tend to produce partial thickness burns, whereas immersion in hot liquid and steam are likely to cause full thickness burns. While the maximum safe bathing temperature is 100 degrees, property managers, landlords and homeowners too frequently set their water heaters between 140 and 160 degrees, and as a result many scald injuries happen in bathing areas.
