Topic - Hazardous Waste

Review all of your wastes to determine if they are an acute hazardous waste (refer to pdf below). If they are acute, then check the "Hazardous Waste" box on your waste inventory sheets.

There are certain requirements when a facility generates acute wastes. This is because small quantities of these wastes can be harmful.

To determine if you have an acute hazardous waste, refer to the PDF document, section NR 605.09 Wis. Adm. Code - Identification and Listing of Hazardous Waste pages 12-13 (F List) and 17-21 (P List) (Exit DNR - press ALT then F4 to close this pop-up window)
