Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our Hazardous Waste services.
What constitutes "Hazardous Waste" under RCRA?
Hazardous waste is any material that poses a significant risk to human health or the environment. Under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), this includes substances that are flammable, corrosive, reactive, or toxic.
Why is professional hazardous waste disposal necessary?
Ensuring that hazardous materials are handled correctly is more than just a regulatory requirement; it is a legal and environmental responsibility. Improper disposal can lead to severe fines, environmental contamination, and health risks. NEIE MWS ensures your facility remains fully compliant with local, state, and federal laws.
How should hazardous waste be stored on-site?
Hazardous waste must be properly identified and segregated. While trace-chemo uses yellow containers, hazardous RCRA waste is typically stored in black hazardous waste containers. NEIE MWS works with you to develop a tailored plan for proper segregation to prevent dangerous chemical reactions and ensure safe transport.
