"Generator" means any person, by site, whose act or process produces hazardous wastes or whose act first causes a hazardous waste to become subject to regulation. (22 CCR, Section 66260.10) "Identification number" means the number applied for and assigned to all handlers of hazardous wastes. (22 CCR, Section 66260.10) "Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA)" is the federal statute that regulates generators, transporters, and facilities that treat, store or dispose of hazardous wastes. All RCRA hazardous wastes are identified in Part 261 of Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (40 CFR) and its appendices, and 22 CCR, Section 66261.1., et seq. "Non-RCRA hazardous wastes" are hazardous wastes regulated in the State of California, other than RCRA (federally regulated) hazardous wastes. A hazardous waste is presumed to be RCRA hazardous waste, unless it is determined pursuant to 22 CCR, Section 66261.101 that it is a non-RCRA hazardous waste. "Silver -only" hazardous wastes are wastes that are hazardous solely due to the presence of silver. (HSC, Section 25143.13) Requirements Generators are responsible for their wastes "from cradle to grave". The consolidated manifesting procedure does not exempt generators from the requirements to properly characterize, handle, label, manage, and accumulate hazardous wastes. For more information on those requirements, please refer to the statutes and fact sheets entitled Hazardous Waste Generator Requirements and Accumulating Hazardous Waste at Generator Sites. • Generator Eligibility Use the flow chart found on page 4 to determine your eligibility to operate under the consolidated manifesting procedure. • Eligible Wastestreams The consolidated manifesting procedure may be used only for the following wastestreams listed in HSC, Section 25160.2(c): Note: Letters in parentheses reflect the codes for each wastestream identified in the Consolidated Transporter Notification Form (DTSC Form 1299). ➢ Used oil (A); ➢ Contents of an oil/water separator (B); ➢ Solids contaminated with used oil (C); ➢ Brake fluid (D); ➢ Antifreeze (E); ➢ Antifreeze sludge (F); ➢ Parts cleaning solvents, including aqueous cleaning solvents (G); ➢ Hydroxide sludge contaminated solely with metals from a wastewater treatment process (H); ➢ Paint -related wastes, including paints, thinners, filters and sludge (I); ➢ Spent photographic solution (J); ➢ Dry cleaning solvents including perchloroethylene, naphtha, and silicone -based solvents (K); ➢ Filters, lint and sludge contaminated with dry cleaning solvent (L); ➢ Asbestos and asbestos -containing materials (M); ➢ Inks from the printing industry (N); ➢ Chemicals and laboratory packs collected from K-12 schools (0); ➢ Absorbents contaminated with wastes on this list (P); and ➢ Filters from dispensing pumps for diesel and gasoline fuels (Q). Identification Number All generators using the consolidated manifesting procedure must have an identification number unless exempted from manifesting requirements as generators of less than 100 kgs per month of "silver - only" hazardous wastes. [HSC, Section 25160.2(b)(10)] U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) Identification Number. Generators of RCRA hazardous wastes in quantities greater than 100 kgs per month who need an identification number must send a "Notification of Regulated Waste Activity" Form (EPA form 8700-12) to the U.S. EPA contractor. This form can be requested by calling (415) 495-8895 and is available on-line at http://www.epa.2ov/epaoswer/hazwaste/data/form87 00/forms.htm California Identification Number. Generators of RCRA hazardous wastes in quantities less than 100 kgs per month, or any amount of non-RCRA hazardous wastes, may obtain an identification number by phone by calling DTSC's Generator Information Services Section (GISS) at (800) 618-6942, in State or at (916) 255-1136, out of State. 2 SEP 08 2015 ENVIRUN 14r01'rw j r�TA�C�IT
