Episodic events are those activities that do not routinely occur during normal operations, such as outdated chemical clean outs, spills or process upsets. Historically, if a generator exceeded their monthly generation limit, they had to change their status and immediately begin managing their hazardous waste under the more stringent generator category. The episodic generation rules grant increased flexibility, allowing generators to have up to two episodic events during a calendar year without changing their status, saving time and money.

EPA has just enacted the biggest change in the hazardous waste generator rules in over 30 years.

Large quantity generators are required to submit a report on March 1^st of even numbered years outlining site hazardous waste activities during the preceding year. As of September 1, 2021, small quantity generators must submit a renotification confirming or updating their generator status and reporting on their waste activities.  In this webcast you will learn how to complete the required Notification of Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Subtitle C Activities (Site Identification Form 8700-12) and the biennial report (EPA form 8700-13), including where to look for data on your wastes, which wastes must be counted, and which wastes do not need to be reported.

EPA is preparing to implement a new electronic hazardous waste manifest system. When adopted, waste generators, transporters, brokers, and emergency responders will face new challenges. Attend this live online session for the latest updates on the proposed e-Manifest rule.
