More About…
US Department of Transportation
• Regulates the transportation of hazardous materials in commerce.
• Hazardous material = HazMat = hazardous waste from most hazardous waste generators.
US Environmental Protection Agency
• Regulates hazardous waste from Cradle to Grave.
• Cradle = Point of generation.
• to = Transportation.• Grave = Final treatment and disposal.

“Most hazardous waste generators…?”
• US DOT defines a hazardous waste @ 49 CFR 171.8 as any material that requires a manifest.
• A Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator (CESQG) is not required to use the Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest.
• Therefore the hazardous waste generated by a CESQG is not a hazardous waste per the US DOT.
• It may still be a hazardous material based on its potential hazards.

Treatment Storage & Disposal Facilities
• Remember generator’s ‘Cradle to Grave’ responsibility.
• Limit number of TSDF’s = limited liability.• Keep records (manifests, etc.) of all waste
shipments for lifetime of facility.• Regulatory retention period is three (3) years.
