State of California — Environmental Protection Agency Department of Toxic Substances Control <br />d. You should inform your local Certified Unified Program Agency (CUPA) <br />that you are a small quantity generator of hazardous waste. A CUPA <br />directory search is available at <br />http:Hcersapps.calepa.ca.gov/Public/Directory/ <br />Rules on Accumulation Times <br />1. If you generate less than 1,000 kg of hazardous waste per month, you may <br />accumulate waste on-site in containers or tanks for no more than 180 days <br />except as noted in subsections 2 and 3 below. If you generate more than 100 kg <br />of waste in a month, the 180-day period begins on the date the waste first begins <br />to accumulate. If hazardous waste is accumulated in tanks, a generator must <br />comply with federal regulations in Title 40 Code of Federal Regulations, sections <br />262.34(f) and 265.201 as it applies to small quantity generator tank <br />requirements. Any amount of acutely or extremely hazardous waste can be <br />accumulated onsite for only 90 days. However, if the total amount of hazardous <br />waste that your site generates in a calendar month is 100 kg or less (or 1 kg of <br />acutely or extremely hazardous (EH) waste), the accumulation time period <br />begins on the date that the 100 kg of hazardous waste or one kg of acutely or <br />extremely hazardous waste limit is reached. <br />The Generator Accumulation fact sheet provides additional information you may <br />need. <br />http://www.dtsc.ca.qov/HazardousWaste/upload/FS OAD Accumulation.pdf <br />In addition the Generator Requirements fact sheet has general information. <br />http://www.dtsc.ca.qov/HazardousWaste/upload/HWM FS Generator Requirem <br />ents.pdf <br />The date that you begin accumulating waste must be clearly marked on <br />the container, portable tank or tank as soon as you place waste in it, and <br />the date must be visible for inspection (Chapter 12, Section 66262.34 <br />(f)(1) & (2), Title 22, CCR) <br />All containers, portable tanks and tanks that hold hazardous waste must <br />be labeled. Chapter 12, Section 66262.34 (f)(3), Title 22, CCR). <br />Each container, portable tank and tank must be labeled or marked clearly <br />with the words "Hazardous Waste", the accumulation start date (as <br />discussed in (a)) and the generator's ID number. If you are accumulating <br />waste in containers or portable tanks, the label must include the following <br />additional information: <br />Composition and physical state of the waste. <br />Statement or statements that call attention to the particular hazardous <br />properties of the waste (e.g., flammable, reactive, etc.) <br />Name and address of person or company producing the waste. <br />(Chapter 12, Section 66262.34(f) (1), (2), (3), (A), (B) & (C), Title 22, <br />CCR) <br />(02/16) STATEPKT Page 4
