DHIERNENING WASTE ACCEPTABILM <br /> Warning labels are often useful in identifying the waste type. Wording such as "harmful if <br /> inhaled", or "use only in a well ventilated area" may indicate a hazardous material. <br /> Additionally, physical signs such as odor or color may be used to identify a prohibited waste. <br /> An incompatibility in waste type in a load may draw the attention of the inspector to the part of <br /> the load that seems out of place. An example would be one or more 55 gallon drums within a <br /> load of residential refuse. When any of the above is noted, the customer should be questioned <br /> and additional assessment undertaken. <br /> These observations, together with the customer's response to questions, may provide sufficient <br /> data to prohibit a waste. <br /> In some instances, the procedures described above may be insufficient to identify whether the <br /> waste can be accepted at the facility since it is the customer's responsibility to ensure that a <br /> waste is permissible, the load-checking inspector may require that additional measures be <br /> undertaken by the customer at the customer's expense prior to accepting the waste. VVhen this <br /> occurs, the customer will be advised to provide either written clarification by regulatory agencies <br /> that the waste is non-hazardous, or provide an analysis by a state certified hazardous waste <br /> laboratory. <br /> The customer is responsible for obtaining the laboratory analysis and incurs all associated costs. <br /> If prohibited wastes are discovered, the customer is informed that such wastes cannot be <br /> accepted at the facility. Additionally, the customer is informed that the wastes must be removed <br /> from the facility and arrangements must be made for their proper disposal. <br /> Special caution will be taken when accepting wastes from sources that have previously attempted <br /> to deliver hazardous wastes to the site. Repeat offenders will be banned from the site. <br /> 4\P1tQtECr\3"MRF\RS1 AK C-6 13.1993 <br />
