Accumulation Time Limits <br /> Accumulation time limits for hazardous waste depend on the facility' s generator status . <br /> As mentioned above, most grocery store facilities operate under small quantity <br /> generator (SQG) status . <br /> SQG Accumulation Requirements <br /> ➢ SQGs generate 1004,000 kg (220-2,200 lbs . ) of hazardous waste per month <br /> ➢ No more than 6,000 kg (13, 200 lbs . ) of hazardous waste may be stored onsite <br /> at any one time <br /> ➢ Up to 55 gallons of hazardous waste and 1 quart of acutely hazardous waste <br /> may be kept " at or near" the location where it is generated (this is called a <br /> " satellite accumulation area or (satellite accumulation point or " SAP) " ) . Once <br /> 55 gallons of a particular waste or 1 quart of acutely hazardous waste are <br /> generated, the waste must be moved (within 3 days) to the longer term <br /> (180- day) accumulation area at the site . <br /> ➢ Once the hazardous waste arrives at the long-term accumulation facility, the <br /> maximum allowed accumulation time is 180 days or less from the first date <br /> on which any amount of hazardous waste begins to accumulate (or 270 days <br /> or less if the waste will be transported more than 200 miles or more for <br /> treatment, storage, or disposal) . <br /> ➢ In no instance can hazardous wastes be stored for more than one year from <br /> the time of initial accumulation. <br /> ➢ The accumulation start date at the Satellite Accumulation Area and the 180- <br /> day storage facility must be clearly marked and visible for inspection on each <br /> accumulation unit. <br /> LQG Accumulation Requirements <br /> ➢ LQGs generate 1,000 kg or more (2, 200 lbs . ) of hazardous waste per month <br /> ➢ No more than 6,000 kg (13, 200 lbs . ) of hazardous waste may be stored onsite <br /> at any one time <br /> ➢ Up to 55 gallons of hazardous waste and 1 quart of acutely hazardous waste <br /> may be kept " at or near" the location where it is generated (this is called a <br /> " satellite accumulation Area" ) . Once 55 gallons of a particular waste or 1 <br /> quart of acutely hazardous waste are generated, the waste must be moved <br /> (within 3 days) to the longer term (90-day) accumulation area at the site . <br /> ➢ The maximum allowed accumulation time is 90 days or less from the first <br /> date on which any amount of hazardous waste begins to accumulate . <br /> 5of13 <br /> i <br />
