The Generator's responsibilities
Everyone who generates hazardous waste must:
Be sure the waste is properly identified, i.e. you know what it is. Regulations prohibit the transportation and disposal of unknown materials.
Be sure the waste is properly labeled - including DHEC required language and contents. Preprinted labels are available from EHS.
Be sure that the waste container is closed when waste is not being added.
Be sure that the waste is properly stored.
Notify EHS - via a collection request - that waste needs to be removed from the satellite accumulation point.
These are things that only those generating the waste can do.
