GENERATOR'S CERTIFICATION: I hereby declare that the contents of this consignmentare fully and accurately described above by proper shipping name and are classified,packed, marked, and labeled, and are in all respects in proper condition fortransportation by highway according to applicable international and nationalgovernment regulations.

If I am a large quantity generator, I certify that I have a program in place to reduce thevolume and toxicity of waste generated to the degree I have determined to beeconomically practicable and that I have selected the practicable method of treatment,storage, or disposal currently available to me which minimizes the present and futurethreat to human health and the environment; OR, if I am a small quantity generator, Ihave made a good faith effort to minimize my waste generation and select the best waste management method that is available to me and that I can afford.
