4. CURRENT MANAGEMENT APPROACHES <br /> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <br /> 4.1 . MAJOR WASTE STREAM COMPARISONS <br /> For each major waste stream,the SB 14 Performance Report is required to contain the following information: <br /> i An estimate,in pounds,of the quantity of hazardous waste generated,and the quantity of hazardous waste <br /> managed,both on-site and off-site,during the current reporting year;and <br /> i An estimate,in pounds,of the quantity of hazardous waste generated,and the quantity of hazardous waste <br /> managed,both on site and off site,during the baseline year. <br /> As shown by Table 3,the weights of the major waste streams generated from the facility are compared for <br /> Baseline Year and Reporting Year along with the type of hazardous waste management approaches. "Hazardous <br /> waste management approaches"means methods and techniques of controlling the generation and handling of <br /> hazardous waste. Approaches include source reduction,on-site and off-site recycling,on-site and off-site <br /> treatment,and disposal. An assessment of the effect of each waste management approach is provided below. <br /> 4.2. ASSESSMENT OF WASTE MANAGEMENT APPROACHES <br /> For each major waste stream,the Performance Report must contain an assessment of the effect,since the <br /> Baseline Year,of each implemented hazardous waste management approach on each of the following: <br /> > The weight of hazardous waste generated; <br /> > Quantify source reduction achieved; <br /> > The properties which cause the waste to be classified as a hazardous waste; <br /> > The on-site management of hazardous waste;and <br /> > The off-site management of hazardous waste. <br /> The assessments should cover any changes in the management of each major hazardous waste stream. The <br /> Performance Report should clearly identify the hazardous waste management approach that was implemented, <br /> and the impact of that approach on the management of the waste. <br /> 4.2.1. Overall Site Performance <br /> i Category B: As shown by Tables 1 and 2,the site had generated 45,464 pounds of Category B wastes in the <br /> Baseline Year. However,as shown by Table 3,for the same waste classifications relative to the Baseline <br /> Year,approximately 61,713 pounds of these same wastes were generated in the Reporting Year,which <br /> represents an estimated 36%increase over the last four years. <br /> 4.2.2. Barium, Chromium, Ft Silver Waste (CWC #181) <br /> As shown by Table 3,since the Baseline Year,this waste stream increased from 8,258 lbs to 14,108 lbs in the <br /> Reporting Year,which represents a 70%increase over this time period.For source reduction approaches, <br /> Dragon continued operational improvements and administrative measures,including employee training.This <br /> waste is being shipped offsite for treatment.The principal factors for this waste stream are business volumes. <br /> Production has increased at the facility,resulting in more waste from the plasma cutter operation. <br /> Dragon Products, LLC.
