# Hazardous Waste Disposal

## Hazardous Material/Waste Turn-In

DLA Disposition Services manages the disposal of hazardous property for Department of Defense (DoD) activities. Hazardous Materials (HM) are handled with the same priorities as other property: reutilization within DoD, transfer to other federal agencies, donation to qualified state and nonprofit organizations, and sale to the public including recyclers. Hazardous Wastes (HW) are handled through a worldwide network of HW management and disposal contracts. All services are provided on a reimbursable basis where the waste generating activity pays the unit price for applicable Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) ordered for management and disposal services.

Disposition Services accepts accountability of HM/HW as “receipt-in-place” by means of a Receipt-In Place (RIP) agreement, a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), or an Inter-Service Support Agreement (ISSA), in accordance with DoDM 4160.21 Vol1. The following guidance provides information to assist the generator with preparing documentation required for DLA Disposition Services to take accountability. Procedures for turning in hazardous property are commodity based and complex. For detailed guidance, contact your DLA Disposition Services Environmental Protection Specialist on the Site Locator. 

 

### Hazardous Turn-In Services

Upcoming Changes and Impacts to Customers

Since 2005, the DoDM 4160.21 Vol. 2 has mandated the usage of “automated and electronic DTID transfer documentation” for normal, day-to-day turn-in of HW or HM.

GENCOMM has been DLA’s system to transfer automated turn-ins of HM/HW from customer systems to DLA Disposition Services system.  Due to cyber security vulnerabilities GENCOMM will sunset and automated turn-in’s will now utilize Defense Automatic Addressing System (DAAS) services.

**Customers have three methods to turn-in HW/HM:**

**Primary method: **
                            -  HMMS 
                            -  ESSOH-MIS 
                            -  WEBCASS-E/HMIDS 
                            -  HWMS 

These systems will connect through DAAS using DLMS transactions to interface with DLA Disposition Services Hazardous Material Management System Hazardous Waste Disposition (HMMS-HWD) system. Customers are encouraged to direct inquiries to their Information Technology offices and inform their HW Managers of this change. 

**Secondary method:** Customers utilizing a system not listed above to manage their hazardous property, contact HMIRS@dla.mil to request assistance and discuss the ability to connect their system through DAAS to DLA Disposition Services HMMS-HWD system.

**Third method:** Customers that do not have a system to turn-in hazardous property electronically will need to use Electronic Turn-In Documents (ETID). Visit the Digital DSR for instructions on gaining access to, and utilizing the ETID application.

### Hazardous Waste Contract Development

DLA Disposition Services Environmental Support Branch meets with our military customers to develop a comprehensive, uniquely tailored requirement for hazardous waste disposal and support services. Disposal services include disposing of hazardous, non-hazardous, State-regulated, and Universal Wastes. Some examples of available services include industrial cleaning, various management services, laboratory analysis, hazardous waste characterization, hazardous waste profile sheet completion, lab/loose packing, and expedited removals and performance.

## Hazardous Waste Disposal Contract Model

### Profile-Based CLINs

Profile-Based CLINs (PBCs) are the standard disposal CLINs utilized on CONUS contracts. PBCs are intended to give the contracting community sufficient information to accurately formulate bids based upon necessary disposal technologies and required treatments. Available disposal technologies might include stabilization and landfill, microencapsulation, fuels blending, recycling, destructive incineration, etc. For containerized waste, the pricing structure is based primarily by container size, with some wastes being billed by the pound, gallon, or ‘each,’ depending on the industry standard unit of measure for disposal.
