Hazardous Waste Point of Generation Accumulation Requirements—Page 2 of 2 • <br /> F. Advantages of Point of Generation Accumulation <br /> 1. You do not have to call for waste pick-ups as often(saves money); <br /> 2. If you operate only under point of generation accumulation requirements and ship each container off-site for <br /> proper disposal within three (3) days of reaching the 55 gallon (or one quart) accumulation quantity limit <br /> you are exempt from Title 22 requirements for hazardous waste management training, weekly container <br /> inspections, emergency equipment, and posting of emergency information.2 <br /> Example <br /> A small shop (e.g., auto repair, dry cleaner) generates three hazardous wastes and keeps waste containers in <br /> four locations. The containers inside the shop and storage room could qualify as point of generation (PG) <br /> accumulation drums, since they are located at or near the point of generation. Containers stored outdoors or <br /> outside the immediate workplace do not qualify as PG accumulation containers. <br /> Outside Storage <br /> Storage (Gated Storage Area) <br /> Shop Area Room <br /> .......................... <br /> Accumulation drum for O 4 — Waste Stream B Drum <br /> Accumulation drum for Waste Stream B <br /> Waste Stream A —� O (Not PG Accumulation) <br /> (PG Accumulation) t <br /> (PG Accumulation) i <br /> Machine that generates _--.w Shed <br /> Waste Stream A <br /> Process that generates <br /> Waste Stream B <br /> Process that generates O <br /> IWaste Stream C �- I <br /> Waste Stream C Drum <br /> (Not PG Accumulation) <br /> z Keep in mind that other regulations(e.g.,Fire Code,Hazardous Materials Storage Ordinance)may still require some of these <br /> things. <br /> UN-056-212 <br /> www.uoidocsorg Rev.10/09/07 <br />
