1) Does HHW transported to our permanent HHW facility from temporary HHW events and municipal load check programs need to be shipped on a uniform hazardous waste manifest (and if not, could we just use a BOL)? Unless specifically exempted (e.g., universal waste) then yes, HHW needs to be shipped on a manifest (from a THHWCF) to a PHHWCF . Note that load check programs located on the same site as the HHW facility does not need to ship their waste under a Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest if the load does not travel on a public highway. 2) Can our permanent HHW facility serve as a TSDF and "kill" the manifests (sign on line 20) as the receiving facility? Yes a hazardous waste collection facility is a permitted offsite TSDF and can be listed as the destination facility on a Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest. As any other destination facility, the TSDF signs off on the manifest. A manifest is never killed, it actually lives forever as a public record. 3) If the answer to #2 is "yes," do these manifests then have to be mailed to the State, just like we do with the manifests shipped from the permanent HHW facility? A Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest is a legal document. DOT requires that ANYTIME a Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest is used as a shipping paper that the directions be followed. So the shipper/generator sends a copy to DTSC and the TSDF sends a copy to DTSC. 4) If reusable items are diverted from a temporary HHW event and we want to take them back to our permanent HHW facility's reuse room, may we ship the items on a BOL since we received the material and made the determination that it was not a waste (even through the residential customer discarded it at the event)? If the product meets the definition of a "reusable household hazardous product or material' as defined in section 25218.1 (o) then it would not need to be manifested. It would probably not require any shipping paper but as a business practice it is a good idea to have some sort of documentation for what is on the truck. 5) Is there any law/section you can cite to verify, if HHWFs can in fact serve as TSDFs for the purpose of accepting HHW? 22 CCR 67450.25(a)(2)(D).
