Handling i l Fines <br /> Action: Follow these steps to appropriately handle and dispose of metal fines in <br /> your work area <br /> • Evaluate: <br /> • Which metal pieces are big enough to go into the metal scrap bin <br /> and which cannot? <br /> ■ Simple rule of thumb, if you can pick the metal pieces up <br /> with your hand they can go into the scrap bin. If the metal <br /> pieces are small enough to be swept up with a broom they <br /> go into the Hazardous waste container. <br /> • Use Appropriate PPE: <br /> • Before picking up or sweeping up the metal pieces or fines make <br /> sure you are using the appropriate PPE ( Dura Mask Nuisance <br /> Dust mask) <br /> • Use Appropriate Tools: <br /> • Sweep up the metal fines using a broom, dust pan, bucket or <br /> shovel. <br /> • Dispose in the Appropriate Container: <br /> • Larger metal scrap pieces go into the metal scrap bin. <br /> • Metal fines are dumped into a Hazardous waste container. <br /> • Make sure that the Hazardous waste label is filled out correctly with <br /> the accumulation date. <br /> • Make sure the lid to the Hazardous waste container is closed after <br /> dumping the metal fines —all Hazardous waste containers must be <br /> kept closed. <br /> • Hazardous Waste Container Disposal: <br /> • Container will be collected every 90 days along with our regular <br /> hazardous waste collection. <br />
