Hazardous Waste Identification Process
Determining whether a waste is hazardous is crucial to maintaining a safe work environment and minimizing exposure to harmful substances. RCRA regulations require that any person who produces or generates a waste must determine if that waste is hazardous, which is often a complex process. To identify whether a waste is hazardous, individuals should use the Hazardous Waste Identification Process (HWIP), which asks the following questions:
- Is the waste a solid waste?
- Is the waste specifically excluded from the RCRA regulations?
- Is the waste a "listed" hazardous waste?
- Does the waste exhibit a characteristic of hazardous waste?
