				  this consignment are fully and accurately described above by proper shipping
				  name and are classified, packed, marked, and labeled, or placarded, or both,
				  and are in all respects in proper condition for transport by highway according
				  to applicable international and national governmental regulations. If export
				  shipment and I am the primary exporter, I certify that the contents of this
				  consignment conform to the terms of the attached environmental protection
				  agency acknowledgment of consent". When a party other than the generator
				  prepares the shipment for transportation, this party may also sign the
				  shipper's certification statement as the offeror of the shipment.
2. Generator or offeror personnel may preprint the words, "on
				  behalf of" in the signature block or may hand write this statement in the
				  signature block prior to signing the generator or offeror certification, to
				  indicate that the individual signs as the employee or agent of the named
				  principal.
NOTE: All of the above information except the handwritten
				  signature required in item 15 may be preprinted.
II. Instructions for international shipment
				  block
Item 16. International shipments

				  export box, and enter the point of exit (city and state) from the United
				  States. For import shipments, the importer must check the import box and enter
				  the point of entry (city and state) into the United States. For exports, the
				  transporter must sign and date the manifest to indicate the day the shipment
				  left the United States. Transporters of hazardous waste shipments must deliver
				  a copy of the manifest to the United States customs when exporting the waste
				  across United States borders.
III. Instructions for transporters
Item 17. Transporters' acknowledgments of
				  receipt
Enter the name of the person accepting the waste on behalf of
				  the first transporter. That person must acknowledge acceptance of the waste
				  described on the manifest by signing and entering the date of receipt. Only one
				  signature per transportation company is required. Signatures are not required
				  to track the movement of wastes in and out of transfer facilities, unless there
				  is a change of custody between transporters. If applicable, enter the name of
				  the person accepting the waste on behalf of the second transporter. That person
				  must acknowledge acceptance of the waste described on the manifest by signing
				  and entering the date of receipt.
NOTE: Transporters carrying imports, who are acting as
				  importers, may have responsibilities to enter information in the international
				  shipments block. Transporters carrying exports may also have responsibilities
				  to enter information in the international shipments block. See above
				  instructions for item 16.
IV. Instructions for owners and operators of treatment,
				  storage, and disposal facilities
Item 18. Discrepancy
Item 18a. Discrepancy indication space
1. The authorized representative of the designated (or
				  alternate) facility's owner or operator must note in this space any
				  discrepancies between the waste described on the manifest and the waste
				  actually received at the facility. Manifest discrepancies are: significant
				  differences (as defined by subsection 2 of section
				  33.1-24-05-39) between the
				  quantity or type of hazardous waste designated on the manifest or shipping
				  paper, and the quantity and type of hazardous waste a facility actually
				  receives, rejected wastes, which may be a full or partial shipment of hazardous
				  waste that the treatment, storage, or disposal facility cannot accept, or
				  container residues, which are residues that exceed the quantity limits for
				  "empty" containers set forth in subsections 3, 4, and 5 of section
				  33.1-24-02-07.
2. For rejected loads and residues (subsections 4, 5, and 6
				  of section
				  33.1-24-05-39 or the applicable
				  requirements of subsection 5 of section
				  33.1-24-06-16), check the
				  appropriate box if the shipment is a rejected load (for example, rejected by
				  the designated or alternate facility, or both, and is sent to an alternate
				  facility or returned to the generator) or a regulated residue that cannot be
				  removed from a container. Enter the reason for the rejection or the inability
				  to remove the residue and a description of the waste. Also, reference the
				  manifest tracking number for any additional manifests being used to track the
				  rejected waste or residue shipment on the original manifest. Indicate the
				  original manifest tracking number in item 14, the special handling block and
				  additional information block of the additional manifests.
3. Owners or operators of facilities located in unauthorized
				  states (for example, states in which the environmental protection agency
				  administers the hazardous waste management program) who cannot resolve
				  significant differences in quantity or type within fifteen days of receiving
				  the waste must submit to their regional administrator a letter with a copy of
				  the manifest at issue describing the discrepancy and attempts to reconcile it
				  (subsection 3 of section
				  33.1-24-05-39 and the applicable
				  requirements of subsection 5 of section
				  33.1-24-06-16).
4. Owners or operators of facilities located in authorized
				  states (for example, those states that have received authorization from the
				  environmental protection agency to administer the hazardous waste management
				  program) should contact their state agency for information on where to report
				  discrepancies involving "significant differences" to state officials.
Item 18b. Alternate facility (or generator) for receipt
				  of full load rejections
Enter the name, address, phone number, and environmental
				  protection agency identification number of the alternate facility which the
				  rejecting treatment, storage, or disposal facility has designated, after
				  consulting with the generator, to receive a fully rejected waste shipment. In
				  the event that a fully rejected shipment is being returned to the generator,
				  the rejecting treatment, storage, or disposal facility may enter the
				  generator's site information in this space. This field is not to be used to
				  forward partially rejected loads or residue waste shipments.
Item 18c. Alternate facility (or generator)
				  signature
The authorized representative of the alternate facility (or
				  the generator in the event of a returned shipment) must sign and date this
				  field of the form to acknowledge receipt of the fully rejected wastes or
				  residues identified by the initial treatment, storage, or disposal
				  facility.
Item 19. Hazardous waste report management method
				  codes
Enter the most appropriate hazardous waste report management
				  method code for each waste listed in item 9. The hazardous waste report
				  management method code is to be entered by the first treatment, storage, or
				  disposal facility that receives the waste and is the code that best describes
				  the way in which the waste is to be managed when received by the treatment,
				  storage, or disposal facility.
Item 20. Designated facility owner or operator
				  certification of receipt (except as noted in item 18a)
Enter the name of the person receiving the waste on behalf of
				  the owner or operator of the facility. That person must acknowledge receipt or
				  rejection of the waste described on the manifest by signing and entering the
				  date of receipt or rejection where indicated. Since the facility certification
				  acknowledges receipt of the waste except as noted in the discrepancy space in
				  item 18a, the certification should be signed for both waste receipt and waste
				  rejection, with the rejection being noted and described in the space provided
				  in item 18a. Fully rejected wastes may be forwarded or returned using item 18b
				  after consultation with the generator. Enter the name of the person accepting
				  the waste on behalf of the owner or operator of the alternate facility or the
				  original generator. That person must acknowledge receipt or rejection of the
				  waste described on the manifest by signing and entering the date they received
				  or rejected the waste in item 18c. Partially rejected wastes and residues must
				  be reshipped under a new manifest, to be initiated and signed by the rejecting
				  treatment, storage, or disposal facility as offeror of the shipment.
