Any CESQG/VSQG that prepares DOT hazardous material shipment papers must be trained every 3 years. One HMR requirement is that hazardous materials listed on the Table be accompanied by a hazardous waste manifest or an HMR shipping paper, such as a bill of lading. However, the DOT requires that any hazardous waste listed by name on the table found at 49 CFR 172.101 (Table) be handled, prepared, and transported in compliance with the HMRs as it is a hazardous material, as well as a hazardous waste (although certain HMR exceptions may apply). The RCRA regulations do not require a CESQG/VSQG to use a manifest to ship its hazardous waste or to comply with many other requirements that apply to SQGs and LQGs. Department of Transportation (DOT) hazardous materials regulations (HMRs) do not apply to them, but they can. ItвЂ™s not uncommon for EPAвЂ™s smallest class of generator to think that U.S. Of course, each program has very specific conditions that must be met. Either program would provide a VSQG with greater flexibility in how they manage their hazardous waste. allows a VSQG to maintain its existing generator category in the event of either a planned or unplanned episodic event in which the VSQG generates a quantity of hazardous waste in a calendar month that would otherwise bump it into a more stringent generator regulatory category (i.e., to either a small quantity generator (SQG) or an LQG category). The second program at 40 CFR 262.230 et seq. Found in the Rule at 40 CFR 262.14(4)(viii), this program allows VSQGs to send hazardous waste to an LQG that is under the control of the same person, provided certain conditions are met. The first is the consolidation of VSQG waste by large quantity generators (LQGs) under the same ownership. The Rule includes two programs that are voluntary in the sense that each is totally optional. VSQGs now have a road map for the information that the EPA wants used in making hazardous waste determinations. Such process knowledge includes information about chemical feedstocks and other inputs to the production process knowledge of products testing that illustrates the properties of the waste or other reliable and relevant information about the properties of the waste or its constituents. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has identified in the past (e.g., in Federal Register preambles and letters of regulatory interpretations) as potentially relevant and acceptable for making a RCRA waste determination. 40 CFR 262.11 codifies the various types of information that the U.S.

The hazardous waste determination requirements in 40 CFR 262.11 that apply to VSQGs remain the same but have been revised to add text describing the concept of using вЂњprocess knowledgeвЂќ to identify waste exhibiting a hazardous characteristic. 40 CFR 261.5 no longer exists in the Rule, as the CESQG requirements have moved to new 40 CFR 262.14 for VSQGs. 100 kg (220 lb) of any residue or contaminated soil, water, or other debris resulting from the cleanup of a spill, into or on any land or water, of any acute hazardous waste listed in Section 261.31 or Section 261.33(e)вЂќ.1 kg (2.2 lb) of acute hazardous waste listed in Section 261.31 or Section 261.33(e) and.100 kilograms (kg) (220 pounds (lb)) of nonacute hazardous waste and.A вЂњVSQGвЂќ is defined as вЂњa generator who generates less than or equal to the following amounts in a calendar month:

CESQG requirements remain the same for VSQGs, but a few Rule changes provide more clarity and flexibility.Дefinition of вЂњVSQG.вЂќ A definition of VSQG has been added to 40 CFR 260.10.
