RCRA1. Waste Determinations:
You need to make waste determinations for all waste generated by the facility. Determinations made by either testing or knowledge of process.
Is it a solid waste?If yes,
Is it a hazardous waste?If yes,
Is it a characteristic waste or a listed waste or both?
If yes, Are there any exemptions that apply?
![Page 5: August 25, 2010, 10:30-12:30 Presented by Christina Coffel Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality Land Protection Division Hazardous Waste Compliance](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/5515712255034674578b4fe3/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Waste Determinations Point of Generation:
Waste becomes subject to regulation when:It is removed from the manufacturing process
unit, OR 90 days after the unit is taken out of service if
the waste remains in an inactive unit…”
Apply to both mobile and stationary units.

If vehicle maintenance performed on site: Used Batteries--may exhibit the toxicity
characteristic for corrosive and lead (D002 &Doo
Used Antifreeze (60/40 Hazardous Guidance)
Used Oil & Used Filters
Used Fluorescent Lamps-- may exhibit the toxicity characteristic for mercury (D009)

Waste FilmUsually contains silver above the RCRA limit of
5.0 mg/L using TCLP. Can recycled under the precious metals
exemption, 40 CFR 266 Subpart F.Hazardous waste determination:
Can either test film (TCLP) to determine level (make sure test is a representative sample of all possible exposures for accurate silver levels)
OR, assume it will exhibit the toxicity characteristic for silver.
OR, use knowledge of process—supporting information/documentation required.
![Page 9: August 25, 2010, 10:30-12:30 Presented by Christina Coffel Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality Land Protection Division Hazardous Waste Compliance](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/5515712255034674578b4fe3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Waste SolutionsWaste Fixer & Waste Developer & Waste Rinse WaterCan be separated in process to reduce quantity of HW
generated or combined into one waste container.Silver recovery unit must be used as per the manufacturers
instructions. Periodic testing should occur to ensure recovery unit is operating at
optimum levels.
After recovery, the waste waters should be below RCRA limit of 5 mg/L silver. May need more than one recovery unit to accomplish this. Recovery cartridges are considered a sludge if going for recovery, not a
RCRA wasteso you don’t have to count their weight in your monthly generation amounts (see future slide)
If you use test strips, verify the range of the strip!

Used LampsLamps qualify to be managed under the Universal
Waste (UW) regulations which are less stringent than the full hazardous waste regulations.
UW containers must be compatible, labeled, and dated with an accumulation start date or tracking system.
One year storage limit vs. 90-day (LQG), or 180-day (SQG).
No manifest usage required. Bill of Lading sufficient or internal tracking system.
Does require UW employee training.

the exemption.Generators responsible to ensure proper
recycling is occurring by the company accepting the battery for recycling-perform due diligence before sending for recycling

RCRA2. Generator Status Determinations:You need to determine how much hazardous waste you
will generate each month in order to establish which hazardous waste generator category you will be in.
Large Quantity Generator (LQG)generate over 2, 200 pounds HW per month
Small Quantity Generator (SQG) generates 220 to 2,200 pounds HW per month
Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator (CESQG)generates 0 to 220 pounds HW per month
![Page 14: August 25, 2010, 10:30-12:30 Presented by Christina Coffel Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality Land Protection Division Hazardous Waste Compliance](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/5515712255034674578b4fe3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Only count the hazardous waste weight!
Do not count waste that is managed as Universal Waste.
Do not count Used Oil.

Container ManagementSatellite Accumulation Area
At or near the point of generation,Under the supervision of the operator, Not exceeding 55 gallons per SAA, Only three day allowance to move full SAA to container
storage.
Storage containers are used to store hazardous waste awaiting disposal or recycling. Usually stored in a centralized location.
The amount of storage is limited by the generator status. No limit on the number of SAA allowed.
![Page 22: August 25, 2010, 10:30-12:30 Presented by Christina Coffel Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality Land Protection Division Hazardous Waste Compliance](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/5515712255034674578b4fe3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Container ManagementBoth types of containers must be
closed. DEQ defines closed as spill proof and vapor tight.
Both containers must be labeled. Storage with the words “Hazardous Waste”, SAA with a content identifying label.
![Page 23: August 25, 2010, 10:30-12:30 Presented by Christina Coffel Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality Land Protection Division Hazardous Waste Compliance](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/5515712255034674578b4fe3/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Container ManagementStorage containers require an accumulation
start date on the container. identifies the first day the container became a
storage container. This date will show how long it has been on site so as to comply with the generator storage limits (90-days LQG or 180-days SQG).
A SAA may become a storage container when it is deemed full or moved to the container storage area. At this point it needs a date and the words
“Hazardous Waste”.

40 CFR 266 Subpart F: Silver Reclamation
![Page 25: August 25, 2010, 10:30-12:30 Presented by Christina Coffel Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality Land Protection Division Hazardous Waste Compliance](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/5515712255034674578b4fe3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Silver Reclamation ExemptionMaterials that are reclaimed to recover
economically significant amounts of gold, silver, platinum, palladium, iridium, osmium, rhodium, ruthenium, or any combination of these.
Applicable to any persons who generate, transport, or store recyclable materials that are regulated under this subpart. Required to:Notify EPAUse the manifest if a generator, transporter, or
someone who stores.
![Page 26: August 25, 2010, 10:30-12:30 Presented by Christina Coffel Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality Land Protection Division Hazardous Waste Compliance](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/5515712255034674578b4fe3/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Silver Reclamation ExemptionAnyone who stores recycled materials that are
regulated under this part must keep the following records to document they are not accumulating these materials speculativelyRecords showing the amount of materials stored at the
beginning of the calendar year;The amount of these materials generated or received during
the calendar year; and The amount of material remaining at the end of the calendar
year.
If speculative accumulation occurs, all regulations apply!
If sent out of the country, specific EPA reporting required.

Transporting Hazardous WasteRequires: EPA notification of activity,Licensing from DOT,Authorization from OCC.
Knowledge of manifesting requirementsSpecific employee/driver training
![Page 29: August 25, 2010, 10:30-12:30 Presented by Christina Coffel Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality Land Protection Division Hazardous Waste Compliance](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/5515712255034674578b4fe3/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Transporting Hazardous WasteIf generator is a CESQG:
Can self transport (limited amounts). No HW manifesting required.Be very familiar with the CESQG exemption--
40 CFR 261.5Be careful with timing of waste generation,
this may affect your generator category. Some CESQGs can become SQGs based on the timing of waste disposal. Then all SQG rules apply for that month of SQG generation.
