EHS HW Determination and Classification Guide

The average cost for disposal is 7-10 times the purchase cost of a material; generators are strongly encouraged to find recycling alternatives. If you would like assistance with waste reduction alternatives, contact EHS (9-3086 or 9-2553).

To determine if your material is a hazardous waste, follow the flow charts and guidelines in the Determination Guide.
