State of California—California EmAronmental Protection Agency Department of Toxic Substances Control Hazardous Waste Management Program,P.O. Box 806 Sacramento CA 95812-0806 Information and Instructions for Obtaining or Updating A Permanent State Identification (ID) Number Do not use this form to apply for a temporary State ID number. The State of California's Department of Toxic Substances Control's (DTSC) Form 1358 is used to apply for a new permanent State ID number, reactivate an existing permanent State ID number, inactivate an existing permanent State ID number or to update information on a State ID number. Do not use this form to apply for a State temporary ID number. Please go to hftp//www.dtsc.ca.gov/IDManifest/index.cfm to access information on State and EPA (federal) ID numbers. Information About State ID Numbers State ID numbers are issued to generators, transporters and disposal facilities for the purpose of tracking hazardous waste. State ID numbers are site-specific and owner-specific. The State ID number enables regulators to track the waste from its origin to final disposal ("cradle to grave'). A person or business must obtain an EPA or State ID number before shipping hazardous waste to a recycler or disposal facility. An exception from the State ID number requirements is for businesses that generate nothing but small amounts of silver-only waste (such as photo fixer) and are shipping it to a recycler. In addition, most businesses that generate only universal waste do not need an ID number. You may obtain detailed information about State ID numbers and legal citations (California Code of Regulations and Health and Safety Code) by going to DTSC's website at hftp://www.dtsc.ca.gov/ID Manifest/. Information on existing ID numbers is available at hftp://www.hwts.dtsc.ca.gov/. Click on Reports and then click on the report titled Search for a Company. Use this form to apply for a State ID number if your business generates no more than 100 kg per month of a federally-regulated waste, or any amount of a non-RCRA (non-federally) regulated hazardous waste. State-only waste is commonly known as non-RCRA waste. Useful conversion: 100 kg is about 220 pounds which is about 27 gallons of liquid. Temporary ID Numbers Temporary State ID numbers (good for 90 days only) are for people or businesses that do not routinely generate hazardous waste. Examples of non-routine activities include asbestos abatement, removing underground tanks, and removing hazardous waste that was abandoned in a leased building. If you need a temporary State ID number, go to hfti)://www.dtsc.ca.gov/IDManifest/index.cfm and click on the tab at the top of the page labeled GET AN ID#. Hazardous Waste Transporters Hazardous waste transporters are defined as any person transporting hazardous wastes by highway, water, rail or air within, into, out of, or through the State of California. With exceptions for a very few cases, including photographic and universal waste, transporters must be registered by DTSC. Health and Safety Code, section 25163(a) makes it unlawful for any person to carry on, or engage in, the transportation of hazardous wastes without a valid transporter registration. Each registered transporter must have a valid permanent State ID number or EPA ID number. Transporter information and forms can be obtained at hftp://www.dtsc.ca.gov/HazardousWaste/Transporters.cfm, by email at transporter( dtsc.ca.aov or by calling (916)440-7145. If you are applying for a State ID number as a hazardous waste transporter, you must submit this application with your transporter registration packet. Instructions for DTSC 1358(5/29/15) Page 1 of 4
