NARPMTXVE <br /> Reuse of Paint thinner <br /> Painting Operations will recycle the paint thinner for cleaning painting <br /> equipment. Currently, the paint thinner is used once and discarded as a <br /> RCRA hazardous waste. Upon completion of the cleaning process, the thinner <br /> will be placed into a labeled container for reuse. The container must remain <br /> covered unless thinner is being added or removed. Paint sludge will settle out <br /> at the bottom of the container producing an additional waste stream. The <br /> paint thinner will be skimmed off and reused until it can no longer be used for <br /> equipment cleaning. The sludge and waste paint thinner will be accumulated <br /> and disposed of as a hazardous waste. The reuse of paint thinner will reduce <br /> the overall amount of hazardous waste generated from the process of <br /> cleaning equipment. <br /> Training <br /> Training will be provided for department managers and facility operators. <br /> Training will include job specific techniques and safety requirements. Training <br /> facility operators will decrease the amount of waste generated at the source <br /> by reducing the amount of thinner used and the number of possible spills and <br /> leaks that may occur from operator error. A description of general annual <br /> training is provided in Section III - General Administrative Controls. <br /> The four-year numerical goal for Waste Paint Thinner is 15%. <br /> CWC 221 — LUBE OIL <br /> Product Storage <br /> Improved storage of products, such as lube oil and latex paint, will reduce the <br /> amount of waste generated. Using stored products before the material's shelf <br /> life expires will reduce the amount of retrograde materials generated as non- <br /> RCRA wastes. Containers holding a hazardous material or waste must be <br /> kept closed except when being added to or removed from the container. <br /> Containers holding liquids and dispersible solids must also be kept airtight. <br /> Training <br /> Training will be provided for department managers and facility operators. <br /> Training will include job specific techniques and safety requirements.
