Book 2: Guidebook and Codes 1

# HELPFUL HINTS

#1:What is a dangerous waste?

Refer to WAC 173-303-070 for a discussion of how to determine whether your waste is a dangerous waste. To designate your waste as a dangerous waste, you must follow a series ofprocedures, as described generally below and reference Chapter 173-303 WAC.

Follow the five steps below to designate your waste.



### 1. Discarded Chemical Products List: First, determine whether your waste is a discarded chemical product, as explained in WAC 173-303- 081. All chemicals that, when discarded, constitute a dangerous waste are listed in WAC 173- 303-9903. Use this list to locate your waste and to identify the appropriate waste code (e.g. P023 or UOO 1) to assign to your waste.

2. Dangerous Waste Sources List: Ifyour waste appears on the Dangerous Waste Sources List, or if it results from the management ofone ofthe wastes on that list, then you must designate the waste as a dangerous waste. WAC 173-303-082 explains how to designate a waste based on its source. The full list ofspecific sources (e.g., dissolved air flotation float from the primary petroleum refining industry) and non-specific sources (e.g., spent solvents from degreasing) is provided in WAC 173-303-9904. Use this list to locate your waste and to identify the appropriate waste code (e.g., FOOl, K048 or WOOl) to assign to your waste.

3. Characteristic Dangerous Wastes: Ecology requires that you evaluate your waste against four general characteristics:

• ignitability (DOO1)

• corrosivity (D002, WSC2)

• reactivity (D003)

• toxicity

- TCLP (D004 - D043)

WAC 173-303-090 provides guidance on how to evaluate your waste for each ofthese four characteristics. It 

### also provides the appropriate waste codes (e.g., DOOl, DOI8) to assign to your waste ifit meets any ofthe characteristics. 

# c

4. Dangerous Waste Criteria: In addition to listed and characteristic wastes, there are two state criteria against which wastes may be evaluated:

• toxicity (WTOl, WT02)

• persistence (WPOl, WP02, WP03)

The methods for determining ifa solid waste is a dangerous waste by these criteria are described in WAC 173-303-100.

IfEcology has reason to believe that the waste would be designated as dangerous waste (DW) or extremely hazardous waste (EHW)by the dangerous waste lists, characteristics, or criteria, or that it was improperly designated, you may be required to test your waste.

5. DWIEHW Designation of Dangerous Waste:

In the course ofdesignating your waste through these procedures, you must determine whetherthe waste is a dangerous waste (DW) or is an ex- 

# C
tremely hazardous waste (EHW). Generators and TSDR facilities are required to designate the wastes they generate and/or manage as DW or EHW. The EHW designation affects how the waste may be handled.

The methods for determining ifa dangerous waste is DW or EHW are described in WAC 173-303- 081,082,090, 100, 104 and 180. If

### waste codes WLO1, WPO1, WP03 or WTO1 apply to your waste, it will designate as EHW. Otherwise, your waste designates as DW.

## #2: 

## What is aWashington state-only dangerous waste?

A Washington state-only dangerous waste is a dangerous waste that is regulated by the State of Washington (Dangerous Waste Regulations), not by the federal EPA(RCRARegulations).
The following waste codes identify Washington state-only dangerous wastes. Ifthe dangerous waste you generate designates with one or more ofthese waste codes, you should list the code( s) in questionA-4 ofthe GM Form. Ifyou are a TSDR and the waste you receive designates with

one or more ofthese waste codes, you should list the code(s) in question 4 ofthe WR Form.
The following generic dangerous waste codes, per WAC 173-303-082,090, 100, 104, 180, and 9904 are considered to be Washington state-only dangerous waste:

WLO1 lab pack waste, EHW* WL02 lab pack waste, DW*

WTO 1 toxic dangerous waste, EHW WT02 toxic dangerous waste, DW

WPO1 persistent dangerous wastes/halogenated organic compounds, EHW WP02 persistent dangerous wastes/halogenated organic compounds, DW WP03 persistent dangerous wastes/polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, EHW

WOOl Wastes that designate as state-specific PCB sources, identified in WAC 173- 303-9904, DW

WSC2 solid or semi-solid corrosive waste identified in WAC 173-303-090 (6)(a)(iii), DW

* Ifyou have a labpack waste see page 11. 

## #3: Whatdangerous wastes do I "count" as being generated for the purposes ofcompleting theseforms?

To complete the Annual Report forms, you must be able to count the wastes you have generated. Proper counting will ensure that (1) you correctly identify your generator status (see Helpful Hint #5) for purposes ofcomplying with regulatory requirements as well as completing the Annual Report forms; and (2) that you report your waste quantities accurately on the forms.
Ecology has developed guidance on how to count generation and recycling ofdangerous waste. The guidance is intended to help generators in determining their appropriate generator status for regulatory compliance purposes and for completing the Annual Report forms. To request Publication #98-414, Counting Dangerous Waste Under the Dangerous Waste Regulations, please call Ecology at 1-800-874-2022 (within state) or (360) 407-6170.



## #4: 

## Quantity Exclusion Limits (QELs)

The Quantity Exclusion Limit (QEL) ofa waste is the generation quantity per batch orper month at which the waste becomes regulated as a dangerous waste. This means that the QEL determines whether the waste is subject to the handling provisions that apply to Small Quantity Generators (SQGs), Medium Quantity Generators (MQGs), or Large Quantity Generators (LQGs). In this manner, the QELs ofthe wastes you generate determine your generator status-that is, whether you are an SQG, MQG, or LQG. SQGs are those generators who never exceed the QEI:;-- for the wastes that they generate and are regulated by a set ofreduced dangerous waste regulations.

There are two QELs: 220 pounds per batch or per month for most dangerous wastes, and 2.2 pounds perbatch or per month for certain other dangerous wastes.

To determine whether the waste quantities you

f· Example 2: You generated I pound ofF020 waste, which has a QEL of2.2 pounds, and 250 pounds ofa FOOl waste, which has a QEL of220 pounds. Thus, you did NOT exceed the QEL of the F020 waste, but you DID exceed the QEL for the FOOl waste. Because you exceeded the QEL for one waste, ALL ofyour wastes are now regulated, both the F020 waste AND the FOO 1 waste, as MQG waste.
Example 3: At the beginning ofthe month, you generated and sent off-site for management 100 pounds ofFOOl waste, with a QEL of220 pounds. Later that month, you generated and sent off-site another 150 pounds ofthe FOO 1 waste. Thus, during the month you generated 250 pounds of FOOl waste. That 250 pounds exceeds the 220 pounds QEL. As a result, you are a Medium Quantity Generator for that month.

Example 4: You generated 150 pounds ofFOOl waste during the month. You had already accumulated on-site 80 pounds ofFOO 1 waste. Thus, the total amount ofdangerous waste on-site was 230 pounds. As a result, you are a SQG for that month since your generation was less than 220 lbs. and your accumulation was less then 2,200 lbs.



## #6: Converting quantities tolfrom pounds

In order to determine whether you are an LQG, MQG, or SQG, you must be able to measure your waste generation in pounds.The following conversions should help you translate between, for example, gallons and pounds ofwaste generated.

• Converting TO pounds FROM another unit of

measure

From SHORT TONS:

Multiply quantity by 2,000. (1 short ton 

### = 2,000 pounds)

For example, ifyou generated 3 short tons of dangerous waste, multiply this quantity by 2,000. 3 x 2,000 = 6,000 pounds ofdangerous waste generated. From METRIC TONS:

Multiply quantity by 2,200. (l metric ton 

### = 2,200 pounds)

For example, ifyou generated 5 metric tons of dangerous waste, multiply this quantity by 2,200. 5 x 2,200 = 11,000 pounds ofdangerous waste generated.

From GALLONS:

• Ifyou do not know the density:

Assume the waste has the density ofwater. Multiply the quantity by 8.34. (1 gallon water = 8.34 pounds)

For example, ifyou generated 50 gallons of wastewater (and you do not know the density of the waste), multiply the quantity by 8.34. 50 x 8.34 = 417 pounds of dangerous waste generated.

• Ifdensity is measured in Ibs/gal:

Multiply the quantity by the density.

For example, ifyou generated 50 gallons of wastewater with a density of7.9 lbs/gal, multiply the quantity. by 7.9. 50 x 7.9 = 395 pounds ofdangerous waste generated.

• Ifdensity is measured by specific gravity:

Multiply the quantity by 8.34. Then multiply this product by the specific gravity.

For example, ifyou generated 50 gallons of wastewaterwith a specific gravity of1.2, first multiply the quantity by 8.34, then multiply this product by 1.2. 50 x 8.34 = 417; 417 x 1.2 = 500.4 pounds ofdangerous waste generated.

### Non-recurrent or periodic waste generation means the generation ofwaste from non-routine events such as the cleanup ofspills or the decommissioning ofequipment. This includes remediationderived generation, such as generation resulting from a Superfund remedial action, RCRA closure ofa dangerous waste management unit.

The generation ofthese wastes should be reported on the GM Form. You should indicate that the waste is a result ofnon-recurrent generation when answering two questions: question A-7, "Which source code best identifies the production, service, management process, or clean-up activity associated with the generation ofthis waste stream?" and questionA-9, "What is the origin of this waste stream?" • If

Waste Exported to Foreign Countries: Note first that all generators who export RCRAregulated hazardous waste to a foreign country must first obtain federal approval ofthe export by following the requirements of 40 CFR Part 262 Subpart E, Exports ofHazardous Waste. Generators who export dangerous wastes regulated only by the State ofWashington (i.e., wastes that have been assigned only Washington stateonly waste codes, as described in Helpful Hint #2

## #10: Excluded Categories ofWaste

Universal Waste (WAC 173-303-573): Wastes managed under the Universal Waste Rule do not count toward generator status and are not reported
on your dangerous waste annual reports. These include: Ecology revised the managementrequirements for special waste in 1995. Ifsafely managed, special waste are conditionally excluded from the Dangerous Waste Regulations as explained in WAC 173-303-073. Ecology has developed a Focus Sheet to help you understand the management requirements ofspecial waste. To request Publication #96-1254-HWTR, please call Ecology at 1- 800-874-2022 (within state) or (360) 407-6170.

Generators can manage special waste as fully regulated dangerous waste or they can choose to follow the conditional exclusions ofWAC 173- 303-073. To take advantage ofthis conditional exclusion, generators must dispose oftheir waste in hazardous waste or municipal solid waste landfills, recycle the waste on- or off-site, or treat the waste in a way that is consistent with Ecology's treatment-by-generator guidance.

Generator annual reporting ofspecial waste is required. Special waste that is shipped off-site to landfills should be reported on GM and 01

• Batteries: Al1 batteries that designate as hazardous waste should be managed as universal waste. Spent lead-acid batteries
may continue to be managed under the existing lead-acid battery exemption ofWAC 173-303-520.

Mercury containing thermostats: A mercury containing thermostat is a temperature control device that contains metal1icmercury in an ampule attached to a bimetal sensing element. This does not include all mercury switches. Ampules removed from these thermostats can also be managed under the universal waste requirements. Othertypes of
mercury switches must be managed according to al1 applicable dangerous waste requirements.

In June 2000, Ecology added lamps that are dangerous waste to the Universal Waste Rule.

Lamps: Any type ofhigh or low pressure bulb or tube portion ofan electric lighting device that generates light through the discharge ofelectricity either directly or indirectly as radiant energy. Universal waste lamps include, but are not limited to fluorescent, mercury vapor, metal halide, highpressure sodium and neon. As a reference, it may be assumed that four, four-foot, one-inch diameter unbroken fluorescent tubes are equal to 2.2 pounds ofweight.

10 Dangerous Waste Annual Report



### Permit-by-Rule (PBR): Wastes managed immediately upon generation in on-site PBR units are not counted toward generator status and are
not reported on the Annual Dangerous Waste Report. The key term is immediate, the waste must directly enter a PBR unit as soon as it is generated. There is no temporary storage or accumaltion ofwaste allowed between the point ofgeneration and the PBR unit. PBR Units are limited to wastewater treatment units, elementary neutralization units, and totally enclosed treatment units.

Recycling without prior storage or accumulation: Waste recycled on-site, without being stored or accumulated prior to recycling in a process subject to WAC 173-303-120(4)(a) of the Dangerous Waste Regulations, are not counted toward generator status and not reported on the Annual Dangerous Waste Report. As soon as the waste is generated, it immediately enters the recycling unit. Wastes cannot be carried in buckets, between the point ofgeneration.

# C IDENTIFYING A DANGEROUS WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

This Worksheet isforyouruse only. Do 

## NOTsubmitthis Worksheet to 

## Ecology.

What doesthisworksheet help me do?

This worksheet will help you to complete the following forms: • GM Form, for generators who manage their

dangerous waste on-site;

- • WR Form, for TSDRs that receive dangerous

waste from off-site for treatment, disposal, or recycling.



## What is a dangerous waste management system?

. For purposes ofcompletmg these forms, a management system is defined by EPA as aprocess or series ofprocesses that act together to perform a single operation on a dangerous waste stream. A system may consist ofa number ofunits, or pieces ofequipment-e.g., individual tanks, surface impoundments, or distillation systems.
The system begins at the process unit where

### a dangerous waste stream first enters the waste management vessels and includes all other process units downstream from the point ofentry except for the following:

• incineration/thermal treatment;

• underground injection; • landfills; • land treatment/application/farming; • surface impoundment to be closed as a landfill;

and • other disposal.

Each ofthe six processes listed above should always be identified as its own individual management system. 

## Howdo I identifya dangerous waste management system?

As you identify a dangerous waste managementsystem, in most cases, you will note that dangerous waste should only be able to enter the system at one point. Thus, wherever you identify a point ofentry, the process units from that point on, to the point ofdisposal or discharge, together constitute a unique management system. In 

### some circumstances, however, dangerous wastes might feed into two tanks that separately conduct the

same treatmentprocess in parallel (e.g., two chromium reduction tanks that lead to common chemical precipitation and clarification/settling units, followed by discharge under NPDES permit 

# 0

and the landfill ofa sludge). In such a circumstance, the two chromium reduction tanks would be considered a single dangerous waste management system: chromium reduction followed by chemical precipitation. (system code M071)


## Howdo I assign a system codeto the dangerous waste management system?

You should classify the system by the system code (system codes are listed on pages 45-46) that best 

### indicates the primary 

### process within the system or the primary operation that the system performs. For example:

• A systemto remove dissolved metals from

wastewatertypically includes equalization, pHadjustment, chemical precipitation, flocculation, clarification/settling, and dewatering of the sludge removed from the bottom ofthe clarifier. Chemical precipitation best identifies the primary purpose ofthe treatment system-that is, to remove metals from the wastewater. Therefore, categorize the system 

# Q under system code 

## Mon for chemical precipitation.

12 Book 2: Guidebook and Codes

## r

f 

## f

# ~. WORKSHEET #4



### • A system consists ofchromiumreduction,

chemical precipitation, clarification/settling, and a sludge dewatering filter press. The system type for this unit is chromium reduction followed by chemical precipitation, system code M071, because the primary purpose ofthe process system is the treatment and removal of chromium wastes.
• A system consists ofa cyanide oxidation

process, followed by chemical precipitation of metals, clarification/settling, and dewatering in a filter press. The system type is cyanide oxidation followed by chemical precipitation, system code M074, since the primary purpose ofthe process system is to destroy cyanide wastes and remove metals from that waste.
• A system for general metal-containing waste

consists ofchemical precipitation ofmetals, clarification/settling, and sludge dewatering in a filter press. The system type is chemical precipitation, system code MOn.



## Reporting storageltransfer activity

Waste streams sent off-site or received from offsite for storage/transfer, as defined on page 27, should always be assigned system code M 141.

On the GM Form, a generatorwho sends a waste stream off-site to a facility, such as a broker, that conducts storage/transfer activity on the waste will report system code M141 as the off-site management type, under question B-4.

On the WR Form, a TSDR that receives waste from off-site for storage/transfer activity will report system code M141 under question 9.
Then, on the GM Form, the TSDR will report the "generation" ofthat waste stream when it is shipped off-site formanagement. The facility will indicate that the waste being "generated" is a storage/transfer waste by selecting source code A80 under question A-7, and the origin code "iv" under question A-9.

# WORKSHEET #5 RECYCLING CREDIT

This Worksheet isforyour use only. DoNOTsubmitthis Worksheet to Ecology.

What are recycling credits?

Recycling credits refer to the percentage ofyour recurrent waste that was reclaimed in an off-site recycling process performed by a TSDR facility. Recycling credits reduce the amount ofyour waste that Ecology will use to calculate whether you must prepare aPollution Prevention Plan and/or pay a Pollution Prevention Planning Fee.



### Who can obtain the recycling credit?

You qualify for recycling credits ifin the reportmg year: • you generated 2,640 pounds or more of

recurrent waste and the dangerous waste residuals ofrecurrent waste (rather than nonrecurrent waste, defined on page 23); and • you sent all or part ofthis waste off-site to a

TSDR facility for recycling. 

# c

Ifyou generated at least 2,640 pounds ofrecurrent waste in a year, you meet the threshold for preparing a Pollution Prevention Plan, as per WAC 173-307-010. You may also be required to pay a Pollution Prevention Planning Fee based on the amount ofrecurrent waste you generated. Recycling credits, however, are deducted from the amount ofwaste that Ecology uses to calculate whether you must prepare a Pollution Prevention Plan and/or the total Pollution Prevention Planning Fee you must pay. This deduction may provide you one ofthe following benefits:

• recycling credits may reduce the Pollution

Prevention count enough so that you fall below the 2,640-pound Pollution Prevention Plan threshold and thus do not have to prepare a 

# 0

Pollution Prevention Plan or pay the associated Pollution Prevention Planning Fee; or

• recycling credits, even if they do not drop you

below the 2,640-pound Pollution Prevention Plan threshold, may still reduce the total ofthe Pollution Prevention Planning Fee that you are required to pay.

If you recycled your waste on-site, you will automatically get the equivalent ofrecycling credits. You should, however, obtain guidance from Ecology on how to count the quantity ofdangerous waste that you generate versus the quantity that is recycled. To request Publication # 98-414, Counting Dangerous Waste under the Dangerous Waste Regulations, please call Ecology at 1-800-874-2022 (within state) 360-407-6170.



### How do recycling credits work?

Recycling credits are applied against the total amount ofyour recurrent waste generation when Ecology calculates whether you must prepare a Pollution Prevention Plan and/or pay the Pollution PreventionPlanning F'ee._ 

### How do I obtain the recycling credit?

Ifyou sent a recurrent waste stream off-site to receive one ofthe qualifying types of"recycling" management (see below, "What type ofmanagement is considered 'recycling'?"), you must contact your TSDR facility to learn what percentage ofyour waste stream was recycled.

You may simply telephone the TSDR facility and ask them to provide you written documentation, in whatever format the TSDR facility finds most convenient, attesting to the percentage ofyour waste stream that was recycled. The TSDR facility must include in the documentation the identification ofthe waste stream recycled (by 

# o

14 Book 2: Guidebook and CodesWORKSHEET #5

waste description and waste form), the system code (pages 45-46 in this book) indicating the type ofmanagement the waste received, and the percentage recycled during the reporting year. An authorized representative ofthe TSDR facility must sign and date the documentation provided to you.

Use the information the TSDR facility provides you to complete your GM Form for the waste stream in question. In question B-4iv, enter the percent ofthe waste stream that was recycled by the specific TSDR facility. Use whole numbers, (i.e., if20 percent ofthe waste was recycled, enter "20," 

### not ".20"). Round offfractions, as two digits is the maxium allowable value. Do NOT
enter the % symbol. Leave this question blank if

no credit is being claimed (do not enter "0" or "x"), All claims for 100 per cent will be denied, as all recycling processes leave residue.

You must attach this documentation, or a copy ofit, to the end ofthe Annual Report. Reporters submitting electronically must attach this documentation to their Verification Form. Claims for recycling credit without attached documentation will be denied. • You may apply the 30 percent credit only to the amount ofwaste that went to Facility B for management.



## What type of management is considered "recycling"?

Only certain types ofmanagement constitute "recycling" for purposes ofobtaining the recycling credit. The qualifying management types are listed below, and continued on the following page, by system code (see pages 45-46 in this book for a complete listing ofmanagement system codes). Also provided are examples of how system codes may be assigned to common off-site recycling activities.

• You sent the waste stream in question to two

different TSDR facilities during the reporting year. Both facilities performed some type of recycling process on the waste. FacilityA recycled 20 percent. Facility B recycled 30 percent.
• You may apply the 20 percent credit only to

### Example: You contract with a TSDR to manage organic spent solvents. The TSDR manages the solvents through solvent distillation, system code M021.
Example: You generate a lacquerthinner that you send off-site for distillation. Use system code M021, "solvent distillation."
Example: You generate a metal-bearing sludge, which is dried to produce a filtercake. You send the filtercake off-site to a metal smelter for metals recovery. The appropriate system code is MOB, secondary smelting.
Example: You generate a contaminated ammonia-based etchant in the process ofprinted circuit board manufacture. You send the etchant off-site to a company that vaporizes the liquid and then recovers the metal through further processing. Assign system code M014, "othermetals recovery for reuse (e.g., ion exchange, reverse osmosis, acid leaching, etc.)."

# WORKSHEET #6 EXTENDED STORAGE
(Onlyfor TSDRs that holdRCRA storagepermits)



## This Worksheet isforyour use only. Do NOTsubmitthis Worksheet to Ecology.

All facilities that hold aRCRA storage permit should review this worksheetbefore completing their Annual Report forms. Ifyou do not hold a RCRA storage permit, do NOT read this worksheet. 

## Background

Ecology has, recognized a need for information on dangerous wastes placed into storage for an extendedperiodoftime. The agency wishes to understand the types ofdangerous waste being placedinto long-term storage, the duration ofthe storage activity, and the ultimate disposition ofthe waste after storage. As a result, Ecology has developed this guidance to direct those facilities conducting extended storage ofdangerous wastes on how to report that activity to Ecology in the Dangerous Waste Annual Report forms.


## What isextended storage?

Ecology has developed a definition ofextended storage solely forpurposes ofreporting dangerous
waste generation and management activities in the
context ofthe Annual Report forms. The definition is not intended to serve any otherregulatory purpose, nor does it alter any definitions set forth in Chapter 173-303 WAC. The defmition is as follows:

Extended storage occurs when a TSDRgenerates or receives from off-site a dangerous waste that is then placed into on-site permitted storage during the current reporting year for a period oftime that will extend beyond the next reporting year. In other words, extended storage addresses those wastes that would enter storage and remain in storage through a minimum oftwo reporting cycles (i.e., the waste enters storage during the currentreporting year and does not emerge during the next reporting year).

Book 2: Guidebook and Codes Example: A TSDRplaces a dangerous waste into on-site permitted storage during the current (e.g., 2000) reporting year and anticipates that the waste will remain in storage throughout the next reporting year, (e.g., 2001), so the earliest time that the waste would emerge from storage is sometime during the 2002 reporting year. In this example, the waste will have been inpermitted storage for a minimum of
two reporting cycles (entering in 2000 and continuing in 200 I). This constitutes extended storage.

This definition does not address routine accumulation activities by generators. Ecology recognizes that generators may accumulate their wastes for a period oftime until they have an adequate amountto warranttreatment/disposal/recycling ofthe bulked waste. This accumulation period may begin during

one reporting year and conclude during the following year. In some circumstances, such accumulation may take place in an area permitted for storage. Such accumulation is perfectly acceptable and does
not constitute "extended storage." Generators conducting such accumulation should report those activities as described in the Annual Report forms: the accumulated wastes should be reported when they are put into on-site treatment, disposal, recycling systems, or when they are sent off-site.

If, however, wastes are being stored over an extended period oftime, as describedby the definition above, the TSDR conducting the extended storage should report that activity in the currentAnnual Report forms-i.e., in the Annual Report for the reporting year during which the extended storage begins. Ecology recognizes that determining whether a storage activity will trigger the defmition ofextended storage is, to some extent, ajudgment call. TSDRs are asked to use their bestjudgment in reporting to Ecology. If, for example, the TSDR determines after the fact that waste that had been in storage actually became "extended storage", then the TSDR should contact Ecology at (800) 874-2022 (within state) (360) 407-6170 for instructions on correcting the information in the Annual Report(s) already filed.

17Dangerous Waste Annual Report 

# c

TSDRs that generate dangerous waste that is placed into extended storage should review the section below, "Reporting Extended Storage in the GM Form." TSDRs that receive dangerous waste from off-site that they place into extended storage should review the section, "Reporting Extended Storage in the WR Form."

Before proceeding, all TSDRs should note that wastes placed into extended storage should be defined as unique waste streams. That is, if, for example, a TSDR receives a waste stream, some ofwhich it treats and some ofwhich it places into extended storage, then the TSDR should actually define that waste stream as two separate waste streams on two separate WR Forms. On the first WR Form, the TSDR would report receiving the waste stream and would report the management ofthe waste stream with the system code that reflects the type oftreatmentprovided. On the second WR Form, the TSDR would report receiving that same waste stream, but the system code reported would be M141, indicating that the waste was received for "storage/transfer". By keeping managed wastes separate from wastes placed in extended storage, the TSDR and Ecology will be better able to track those wastes that enter, and eventually exit, extended storage.

# WORKSHEET #7b ON-SITE MANAGEMENT: HOW TO REPORT"

This Worksheet isforyour use only. Do NOTsubmitthis Worksheet to Ecology.

What ison-site management?

On-site management ofa waste stream is the treatment, storage, disposal and recycling ofa dangerous waste at the site ofgeneration. This includes permit-by-rule and treatment-by-generator activities as well as common recycling activities such as distillation and solvent extraction.


## Howmany GMforms do I need tofill out?

In most cases reporting on-site management ofa waste stream requires two OM forms. One OM form is needed to report the original generation of the waste and a second OM form is needed to report the residuals (i.e. still bottoms, sludge, filters). Remember, on this GMformyou are reporting where the originalwaste generation was managed. On a separate GMformyou will report the management of the residual.

B-3 How much was managed on-site and how was it managed?

• If this entire waste stream was managed onsite, enter the same quantity as in question B1. Include the appropriate system code.

• Ifonly part ofthe waste stream was managed on-site, enter on the quantity ofthe on-site managed portion. Include the appropriate system code.

B-3a Was this Treatment-by-Generator activity? Complete as appropriate. Refer to Book 2, page 28 for a definition oftreatment-by-generator.

To understandyour regulatory requirements, refer to Chapter 173-303 WACandthe definitions therein.

Accumulation: a generator may accumulate dangerous waste for a shortperiod oftime before shipping it off-site. The waste must be accumulated in either tanks or containers. Accumulation does not constitute "storage," a dangerous waste activity that requires a permit (see 

### storage). The generator does
not need to obtain a storage permit ifhe/she complies with the applicable requirements ofWAC 173- 303-200 and 173-303-201, as outlined below.

• Large Quantity Generators may accumulate their waste for up to 90 days before shipping it off-site.

• Medium Quantity Generators may accumulate their waste for up to 180 days before shipping it off-site. Ifthe nearest treatment, storage, disposal,

or recycling facility to which they can send their
waste is more than 200 miles away, MQGs may request that Ecology grant a 90-day extension to this 180-day period.

• Small Quantity Generators may accumulate dangerous waste and extremely hazardous waste without a permit and without any time limit, as long as the Quantity Exclusion Limit (see Helpful Hint #4 on pages 3 and 4, and the definition on page 26) is never exceeded for any waste or combination ofwastes.
Acutely Hazardous Waste: dangerous wastes F020, F021, F022, F023, F026, and F027, as listed in WAC 173-303-9904; and wastes identified with a dangerous waste code beginning with a "P" as listed in WAC 173-303-9903.

Authorized Representative: the personresponsible for the overall operation ofthe facility or an operational unit ofthe facility, e.g., the plant manager, superintendent, or person ofequivalent responsibility.

Batch: any waste that is generated less frequently than once a month. For example, waste from a tank that is cleaned out once every fourteen weeks would be considered a "batch."

CFR: see Code ofFederal Regulations. Capacity: the quantity ofwaste that a facility or system can manage. For landfill systems, maximum operational capacity is defined as the quantity ofwaste that can enter the system overthe remaining lifetime ofthe system. For flow systems, maximum operational capacity is defined as the maximum quantity that can enter the system during the course ofone year.

Closed loop recycling system: a production system in which secondary materials are reclaimed, returned to, and reused in the original production process or processes from which they were generated, PROVIDED: • the material (typically solvent) is contained in a tank or tanks, and the process, storage, and reclamation tanks are completely enclosed and connected (e.g., by pipes); • the spent materials (solvents) are never accumulated in such tanks for overtwelve months withoutbeing reclaimed;

• reclamation does not involve controlled flame combustion (e.g., burning or incineration that occurs in boilers, industrial furnaces, or incinerators); • the reclaimed material is not used to produce a fuel or used to produce products that are used in a manner constituting disposal; and • all dangerous waste residues (e.g., still bottoms, sludges) from the production/reclamationprocess go to apermittedtreatment, storage, and disposal facility
or to a legitimate recycler. (Ifthe generatorcan demonstrate that the residues do not exhibit any dangerous waste characteristics [WAC 173-303-090] or criteria [WAC 173-303-100] and providedthat the original waste was not listed, then the residues are exempted from this condition; ifthe original waste was listed, then the residue is also listed.)

Degreasing processes are not considered production processes, and the reclaimed degreasing solvent, when subsequently used as a degreaser, is not feedstock. Therefore, a degreasing process would

### NOTfit the criteria for a closed loop recycling system.

Code ofFederal Regulations: the detailed regulations, written by Federal agencies, that implement the provisions oflaws passed by Congress. Regulations in the CFR have the force ofFederal law. Federal hazardous waste regulations are found in 40 CFR

EHW: see 

### Extremely Hazardous Waste.

Extended storage: occurs when a TSDR generates or receives from off-site a dangerous waste that is then placed into on-site permitted storage during the currentreporting year for a period oftime that will extend 

### beyondthe next reporting year. In other words, extended storage addresses those wastes that would enter storage and remain in storage during a minimum oftwo reporting cycles (i.e., the waste enters storage during the current reporting year and does not emerge during the next reporting year).
Example: ATSDR places a dangerous waste into onsite permitted storage during the current (e.g., 2000) reporting year and anticipates that the waste will remain in storage throughout the next (e.g., 2001) reporting year, such that the earliest time that the waste would emerge from storage is sometime during the 2002 reporting year. In this example, the waste will have been in permitted storage for a minimum of two reporting cycles (starting in 2.000 and continuing in 2001). This constitutes extended storage.
Extremely Hazardous Waste (EHW): see Helpful Hint #1 on page 2. Those solid wastes as defined in Chapter 173-303 WAC that designate as

### Footnotes: 1. For wastes listed with the dangerous waste numbers F020, F021, F022, F023, F026 or F027, the quantity exclusion limit varies. It is 2.2 pounds (1kg) per month or per batch for wastes with these codes. It is 220 pounds (100) kg per month or per batch when the waste is a residue or contaminated soil, waste or other debris resulting from the cleanup ofa spill ofwaste with the F020-F023 or F026-F027 codes.

2. For numbers beginning with "P" on the discarded chemical product list in WAC 173-303-9903 the quantity exclusion limit varies. It is 2.2 pounds (1kg) per month or per batch for discarded chemicals or for containers or inner liners that have held wastes with these codes - unless they have been emptied per the description in WAC 173-303-160 (2). It is 220 pounds (100) kg per month or per batch when the waste is a residue or contaminated soil, water or other debris resulting from the cleanup of a spil1 ofa waste with the same "P" codes.

3. For numbers beginning with "U" on the discarded chemical product list in WAC 173-303-9903 the quantity exclusion limit is always 220 pounds (100) kg per month or per batch.
