Are You Managing Your Hazardous Waste documentation Correctly?

Here is what you need to do…

-Maintain copies of all manifests or vendor's invoice (with the exception of conditionally exempt facilities, a Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest must be used when hazardous waste is transported off-site)

-Make sure that all copies are properly signed and legible, and the person filling out the manifest has received adequate training

-Verify that all information on each copy is uniform

-Send a copy of the manifest to the State

-Maintain the return copy of the manifest from the Treatment Storage and Disposal Facility (TSDF)

-File exception reports whenever you do not receive a copy of the manifest from TSDF within the required time limit as specified by regulation

Training is required by law for anyone completing hazardous waste manifests. Hazardous waste manifests must be properly filled out and retained.

For additional information, contact your immediate supervisor or visit the environmental web page (blue.usps.gov/environmental).

For assistance with training, contact NCED environmental support team at 405 366-4890.
