6.7 Describe Factors Affecting Major Waste Streams <br /> For each major hazardous waste stream,the Performance Report must contain a <br /> description of factors that have.affected hazardous waste generation and <br /> management from the baseline year to the reporting year. <br /> The rate of production and amount of hazardous waste generated at a site can <br /> change dramatically over time. SB 14 does not penalize a generator for generating <br /> more waste. To ensure a fair comparison between the current reporting year and <br /> the baseline year,the Performance Report must include a detailed description of <br /> factors affecting the generation,on-site management and off-site management of <br /> major hazardous waste streams. Factors that can influence generation and <br /> management of hazardous waste may include: <br /> 1)Changes in business activity (production rate) <br /> 2)Changes in waste classification by the government <br /> 3)Natural phenomena <br /> 4)Other factors that have affected either the quantity of hazardous waste <br /> generated or on-site and off-site hazardous waste management requirements. <br /> As mentioned in Section 6.3 of this Chapter, if the Performance Report for <br /> reportingyear 2002 is the genrator's initial Performance Report,then the generator <br /> may also use 2002 as the baseline year. <br /> 6.8 Certify the Performance Report <br /> The Performance Report must have a technical certification and a financial <br /> certification. The technical certification can be completed by any one of the <br /> following personnel: <br /> 1)an engineer who is registered in California and has demonstrated expertise <br /> in hazardous waste management; <br /> 2)anenvironmental assessorwho isregistered inCalifornia and has demonstrated <br /> expertise in hazardous waste management; or <br /> 3)an individual in your company who is responsible for the processes and <br /> operations of the site,regardless of any professional registrations. <br /> The person performing the technical certification of the Performance Report <br /> must certify that the Performance Report identifies the factors that affect the <br /> generation, on-site management, and off-site management of hazardous wastes <br /> and summarizes the effect ofthose factors on the generation,on-site management, <br /> and off-site management of hazardous wastes. <br /> Following is an example of a technical certification statement: <br /> is <t > <br /> 51 <br />
