collecction, transpo
ortation, treatmment and dissposal of haazardous wasttes that are regulated byy law.
Hazarrdous waste in ncludes chemiical and mixed d hazardous (rradioactive annd chemical) w wastes. The ggoal of
this policy is to enssure the propeer and safe management
m (ggeneration, treeatment, storaage and dispossal) of
hazard dous wastes at
a Stony Brook k University, while applyinng the U.S. Ennvironmental Protection A Agency
(EPA))'s hierarchy of waste min nimization: reeduce, reuse, and recycle. In addition, the policy ennsures
complliance with federal, state annd local regulaations on propper handling of hazardous w wastes.
2. Scopee: This policyy applies to Un

niversity employees and othher designatedd personnel w
who generate aand/or
managge those who generate hazaardous waste. Specific trainning requirem
ments are outlinned within this
proced
dure in section
n 7.2.
3. Policy y: All waste generated

g at th
his University
y shall be handdled, packageed, collected, ttransported, trreated,
and disposed of in such a manneer as to protecct health and safety, assuree compliance w with environmmental
regulaations and laww, promote efffective utilizattion of resourrces and contrribute to and ssupport the m

EH&S Policy & Procedure Hazardous Waste Management
New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, Hazardous Waste Regulations; 6 NYCRR
Part 370 et seq. (http://www.dec.ny.gov/regulations/8765.html)
6. Definitions:
6.1. Hazardous Waste: Any solid, liquid, gas or sludge that has at least one of the following
characteristics: ignitable, corrosive, reactive, toxic or is specifically listed by the U.S. EPA as a
hazardous waste.
6.2. Contaminated Containers: Empty containers that previously contained a hazardous material and
have not been triple rinsed according to EH&S guidelines.
6.3. Contaminated Equipment: Includes equipment that has been contaminated by external hazardous
chemicals or contains an internal source of hazardous chemicals, such as PCBs in electrical
transformers or capacitors, mercury in a sphygmomanometer or scrap electronic components (i.e.
lead).
6.4. Corrosive: Aqueous waste that has a pH less than or equal to 2 or greater than or equal to 12.5 or is
a liquid and corrodes steel at a rate greater than 6.35 mm (0.250 inch) per year.
6.5. Ignitable: Liquid waste (other than an aqueous solution containing less than 24 percent alcohol by
volume) and has flash point less than 60 [deg]C (140 [deg]F); or, if it is not a liquid and is capable,
under standard temperature and pressure, of causing fire through friction, absorption of moisture or
spontaneous chemical changes and, when ignited, burns so vigorously and persistently that it
creates a hazard; or, it is an ignitable compressed gas; or, it is an oxidizer.
6.5.1. An oxidizer is a substance such as a chlorate, permanganate, inorganic peroxide, or a nitrate,
that yields oxygen readily to stimulate the combustion of organic matter.
6.6. Reactive: Any chemical compound, mixture or device that will detonate or deflagrate due to a shock
or heat; or, a liquid or solid that, even in small quantities and without an external ignition source,
can ignite within minutes after coming in contact with air; or, a material that, when in contact with
air and without an energy supply, is liable to self-heat or spontaneously ignite; or, material that is
liable to undergo, at normal or elevated temperatures, a strongly exothermal decomposition caused
by excessively high transport temperatures or by contamination; or, any chemical that becomes
unstable, generates pressure, forms a toxic by-product, or otherwise becomes hazardous at room
temperature or following rapid temperature changes; or, any chemical that will react violently when
exposed to water, including sodium and potassium.
6.7. Toxic: A solid waste exhibits the characteristic of toxicity if, using the Toxicity Characteristic
Leaching Procedure (TCLP), the extract from a representative sample of the waste contains any of
the contaminants listed in table 1 (provided as Attachment 1) at the concentration equal to or greater
than the respective value given in that table. A solid waste that exhibits the characteristic of toxicity
has the EPA Hazardous Waste Number specified in Table 1 which corresponds to the toxic
contaminant causing it to be hazardous.
7. Procedures:
7.1. Work Practices
7.1.1. When packaging any type of waste for collection, do not put more than 40 pounds of waste in a
single container nor fill more than 3/4 full. Allow space in containers for expansion of vapors,
as appropriate/necessary.
[Rev. 2-28-12] Page 2 of 13

7.1.2. All materials that pose a potential puncture hazard (e.g., hypodermic needles, broken glass, and
plastic-ware) must be packaged in puncture resistant containers prior to removal from the work
area.
7.1.3. Special considerations shall be made for any/all waste that has the potential to generate
pressure during container storage or if exposed to certain environmental conditions (i.e.
temperature changes, humidity, etc.). Specialty containers or caps may have to be utilized.
Please contact Environmental Health & Safety at 2-6410 for further instruction, as necessary.
7.1.4. Do not mix general, solid or non-hazardous waste with hazardous wastes (i.e. regular garbage,
office trash, buffer solutions, etc.) or package in hazardous waste containers.
7.1.5. Non-water soluble materials, Primary Radioactive Wastes, and Hazardous Chemical Wastes
such as Corrosives, Flammable Liquids, Carcinogens, Mutagens and other toxic or reactive
chemicals shall not be discharged into any sanitary or storm drain systems.
7.1.6. Hazardous wastes must never be left on loading docks, freight elevator lobbies, hallways or
any other unrestricted locations.
7.1.7. All hazardous wastes must be identified before being offered for disposal. Waste of unknown
or incorrectly described composition presents for difficult handling and disposition and may
require costly analysis before removal and disposal can be accomplished. In some cases, the
cost of this analysis and disposal is the responsibility of the generator.
7.1.8. The generation of hazardous waste is to be minimized. Investigators are encouraged to

develop and use validated experimental procedures that replace hazardous materials with
non-hazardous materials, minimize generation of hazardous wastes, or result in effective
treatment of wastes to reduce or eliminate hazardous characteristics.
7.1.9. Empty containers that once held chemicals or radioactive materials must be clearly identified
using the procedures described for the category in section 7.6 of this Policy.
7.1.10. Before initiating treatment of a hazardous waste, generators are requested to contact the
Department of Environmental Health and Safety to ensure that the proposed treatment process
meets safety, regulatory, and recordkeeping requirements.
7.1.11. Do not fill waste containers above any established or marked fill line or to the point of
overflowing. Overfilled containers cannot be safely transported or emptied and will be refused
by the Department of Environmental Health and Safety.
7.2. General Information
7.2.1. No hazardous wastes may be dumped down a drain, discharged to sanitary sewer, be discarded
with regular trash or be allowed to evaporate to the atmosphere.
7.2.2. Only trained personnel may manage waste. Waste Management Training is required if an
employee has the responsibility for:
- Determining if a material is a hazardous waste.

- Adding hazardous waste into an accumulation container.
- Transporting hazardous waste from a satellite accumulation point to a collection event or 90-
day storage area.
[Rev. 2-28-12] Page 3 of 13

- Inspecting hazardous waste storage areas.

- Responding to spills involving hazardous waste.
7.2.3. New employees may not manage or handle hazardous waste unless supervised. Employees
will receive training in the management and handling of hazardous within six months of
commencing work with hazardous waste.
7.2.4. Hazardous waste management training is provided by EH&S. For more information, visit
http://www.stonybrook.edu/ehs/training/
7.2.5. Hazardous wastes must be accumulated in areas at or near the point of generation
(accumulation area) and that are under the control of the area supervisor.
7.2.6. No more than 55-gallons of a single waste stream may be accumulated at any one time.
7.2.7. No more than 1 quart of acutely hazardous waste (see Attachment 4) may be accumulated at
any one time.
7.3. Labeling Instructions
7.3.1. All chemical wastes must be labeled with a University Chemical Waste Disposal Label as soon
as waste is generated and added to the container (it is recommended to label the bottle prior to
collection so as to avoid having to label it once waste has been added). If the waste or surplus
chemical is in the original manufacturer's container, confirm the identity of the chemical and
place a small (1” x 2”) “Hazardous Waste” label next to the original label (see Attachment 2
for examples of each label type).
7.3.2. If the waste is a mixture, identify the chemical waste constituents by proper chemical name
including any deactivators/disinfectants used and the approximate quantity or concentration.
Use of obscure acronyms, chemical formulas and brand names is prohibited.
7.3.3. All fields on the University Chemical Waste Disposal Label should be filled out/completed,
including all generator information (name, date, department, location, telephone, etc.), material
type and form as well as any physical or health hazards that may be associated with the waste.
7.3.4. For chemicals in containers that were previously used for other chemicals (i.e. stock bottles),
mark a bold XXX through the original label, complete a Waste Chemical Label and attach over
the original label.
7.3.5. A Chemical Waste Manifest must be completely filled out each time chemical waste is picked
up from a lab or other location or brought to a pickup event on campus. The identification of
the chemicals on the manifest must match those on the Chemical Waste Disposal labels having
been placed on the chemical waste containers. The number of containers and the size of the
containers must also be listed. The size of the container, not the amount in the container, should
be listed on the manifest. The completed and signed manifest, with account numbers (if
appropriate/warranted), must be available when a pickup is made.
7.4. Waste Segregation
7.4.1. Do not store incompatible materials near each other. Check incompatibility charts.
[Rev. 2-28-12] Page 4 of 13

7.4.2. Store acids away from bases, active metals, oxidizers and chemicals which could generate
toxic gasses.
7.4.3. Store flammables in a flammable storage cabinet.
7.4.4. Do not mix flammables with oxidizers.
7.4.5. Store large bottles on low shelves.
7.4.6. Keep containers closed when not being filled.
7.4.7. Leaking containers must be transferred to another container.
7.4.8. Liquid laboratory wastes in un-sealable containers must be transferred into a container that can
be securely sealed to prevent spillage. Whenever transferring a chemical into a new container,
check to make sure that the chemical is compatible with (i.e. will not corrode, dissolve, or
permeate) the container.
7.4.9. Waste streams should be kept as pure as possible. Before mixing chemical wastes, check to
make sure all are compatible and will not react. If unsure about the type of container to use for
a waste or if a waste can be mixed with other chemicals, consult with the Department of
Environmental Health and Safety.
7.4.10. Bulk liquid laboratory wastes must be placed in containers that are compatible with the
waste chemical and will prevent leakage of liquids and vapors.
7.4.11. Store containers in separate secondary containment whenever possible.
7.4.12. Chemical reagents in small containers, including vials and bottles of 100 ml or less, must be
segregated by type and compatibility and may be packaged into a larger container, such as a
strong cardboard packing box or pail and the outermost container can be labeled as opposed to
labeling each individual label stored inside. Sort smaller containers by chemical compatibility
using separate boxes or containers for each group, as needed.
7.5. Waste Transportation
7.5.1. During chemical transport wear personal protective equipment.

- Nitrile chemical gloves
- Chemical goggles
- Apron or lab coat
7.5.2. Have spill clean-up material available.
7.5.3. Do not lift bottles by the cap alone. Always support the bottom of the bottle. When handling
keep bottles below eye level.
7.5.4. Place bottles in a tray as secondary containment or use a cart with secondary containment.
7.5.5. Do not overload carts. Place containers with the correct side up, into the boxes using
cardboard separations or small amounts of other suitable packing material to ensure the
stability and immobility of the containers within the carton during transport.
[Rev. 2-28-12] Page 5 of 13

7.5.6. Do not bury small containers in packing material or between larger containers where they may
be lost or broken in transit.
7.5.7. Do not seal the tops of the packing boxes. Department of Environmental Health and Safety
personnel must check the contents before removing the waste from the work area. Do not stack
packing boxes of chemical waste.
7.5.8. Do not store incompatible materials near each other while waiting to have waste picked up. All
containers must be securely sealed and leak proof.
7.5.9. Bulk dry solids wastes, including contaminated disposable laboratory refuse, absorbed
hazardous liquid wastes, and other nonvolatile solid wastes that do not contain free liquids, can
be packaged in doubled heavy duty plastic bags, 5 gallon open top metal can, 15 gallon blue
polypropylene drums, 30 gallon fiber drums or 55 gallon open top metal drums. Consult with
the Department of Environmental Health and Safety to determine which type of containers
should be used for the types and amounts of dry waste being generated.
7.5.10. Semisolid wastes and other volatile solid wastes, including solid chemical wastes that are
wet, corrosive, generate toxic or flammable vapors, or otherwise require more secure
packaging than dry solid wastes, can be placed in a wide mouth glass jar, plastic container, or
other container that is compatible with the waste chemical and prevents leakage of liquid
vapors. If the waste contains culture media or other material subject to depredation, add a
sufficient amount of a chemically compatible disinfectant to suppress microbial growth.
7.6. Specific Hazardous Waste Handling
7.6.1. Contaminated Containers:
7.6.1.1. All containers that held a hazardous material must be triple rinsed with an appropriate
solvent to insure that the container has been properly decontaminated before disposal.
Depending on the nature of the materials, the rinse solvent may have to be disposed of as
chemical waste. Contact EH&S with questions.
7.6.1.2. After the containers have been triple rinsed, deface the original label with an indelible
marker or by placing a "Triple Rinsed" sticker over it. Drums can be marked as empty by
writing "MT" with an indelible marker in a color that will be visible over the original
label. Place a "Triple Rinsed" label on all containers if possible. Replace bungs, caps or
other sealing devices and tighten. Remove grease, oil, and chemical residues from the
exterior of all containers.
7.6.1.3. One gallon or smaller decontaminated glass and plastic bottles should be recycled
whenever possible in proper/designated recycling bins established around campus or in
your particular lab space. Alternatively, clean glass and plasticware may be reused as
waste collection vessels as long as the containers are free of residual and pose no risk of
contamination that may result in incompatibility issues or inadvertent/unintended
chemical reactions.
7.6.1.4. Under no circumstances may a container labeled with the international radioactive
symbol or with the words “Hazardous Waste” be disposed of in the regular trash.
[Rev. 2-28-12] Page 6 of 13

7.6.1.5. Do not discard bungs or make holes in drums. Incomplete or damaged drums cannot be
transported safely, often times cannot be recycled, and likely would require costly
disposal procedures.
7.6.1.6. Before putting non-hazardous waste that might be mistaken for a laboratory chemical in
the trash, label the bag with the contents and the words “non-hazardous” and put a note
on the bag reading: “For questions, contact Your Name Here”.
7.6.2. Contaminated Equipment:
7.6.2.1. When equipment has been contaminated, the generator should attempt to decontaminate
equipment prior to requesting disposal as chemical waste. If decontamination is
performed by a contractor, equipment will be certified as clean before disposal. Contact
the Department of Environmental Health and Safety for information on decontamination
methods and assistance.
7.6.2.2. Equipment may intrinsically contain toxic chemicals (i.e. electrical transformers and
capacitor units may contain PCBs) requiring special handling procedures, testing and
disposal as chemical waste if the toxic chemicals cannot be removed. Scrap electronic
equipment that contains hazardous components may be either recycled by a certified
scrap dealer or by disposed as hazardous waste. Contact the Department of
Environmental Health and Safety for assistance prior to moving units or handling such
equipment.
7.6.3. Corrosive Acids and Bases:
7.6.3.1. Certain acids and bases which are strong oxidizers, such as perchloric and nitric acid, or
those that contain toxic metals, such as chromic acids, or those that form highly toxic
salts, such as hydrofluoric acid, should not be neutralized and cannot be poured down the
drain.
7.6.4. Deregulated Scintillation Fluid:
7.6.4.1. Attach a copy of the scintillation counter printout to the Chemical Waste Manifest to
demonstrate that the material is deregulated (<0.05 millicuries/ml of H3 or C14).
7.6.4.2. Scintillation fluids may be disposed of in scintillation vials. Alternately, the fluid may be
poured off into another container. Due to the additional handling and possible increase in
exposure, it is required that this procedure be carried out in a chemical fume hood. The
empty unbroken vials can be rinsed with water, placed in a plastic bag, and disposed of
as General Non-Hazardous Waste.
7.6.4.3. All toluene or xylene based scintillation fluids are to be managed, stored and disposed of
as flammable solvent/hazardous waste.
7.6.4.4. All other scintillation fluids (e.g., alkyl benzene or other non-flammable based materials),
should be treated as general chemical waste. Scintillation fluids of any type cannot be
poured down the drain.
7.6.5. Explosives:
[Rev. 2-28-12] Page 7 of 13

7.6.5.1. Examples of potentially explosive chemicals encountered in campus laboratories include

nitrosoguanidines, nitrosoureas and picric acid.
7.6.5.2. Do not place containers of potentially explosive chemicals in boxes containing other
waste chemicals. Pack separately with appropriate noncombustible cushioning materials.
Do not place metal sensitive compounds such as picric acid in metal containers or wrap
them with aluminum foil.
7.6.5.3. Some chemicals such as dinitrophenyl hydrazine, picric acid, and other trinitro
compounds may become shock sensitive and dangerous to handle if allowed to dry out.
Do not allow inventories of these chemicals to dry out while in use and storage. Prior to
disposal as chemical waste, fill bottles with water and tighten caps. If a container of this
type of material has dried out, do not attempt to open container and immediately contact
Environmental Health & Safety @ 2-6410.
7.6.5.4. Certain chemicals, such as ethers and alkali metals, can form potentially explosive
peroxides. Clearly indicate the date of purchase or receipt and the date opened on all
containers of chemicals that tend to form dangerous peroxides during storage. This
information is needed to meet safety and transportation requirements.
7.6.5.5. Opened containers of peroxide forming chemicals should be tested for peroxide
formation or be discarded as chemical wastes within 3 to 6 months after opening.
7.6.5.6. Unopened containers of peroxide forming chemicals should not be held for more than 12
months after receipt. Contact the Department of Environmental Health and Safety for
disposal guidance.
7.6.5.7. If evidence of peroxide formation, such as crystal formation, is noted in a chemical

container, do not attempt to move it. Contact EH&S @ 2-6410 for removal.
7.6.5.8. Advise the Department of Environmental Health and Safety at the time a call for a
pickup is placed or when the waste is brought to a pickup event that an explosive
chemical is to be removed.
7.6.6. Flammable Liquids:
7.6.6.1. Collect flammable liquids in appropriate flammable waste disposal containers.
7.6.6.2. Collect halogenated and non-halogenated solvents in separate waste containers.
7.6.6.3. Place only chemically compatible waste solvents in the container. Do not place solids,
aqueous chemical wastes, concentrated halogenated solvents, phenol, heavy metal
compounds, strong acids or bases, oxidizers or radioactive wastes in solvent collection
containers unless they are mixed as a result of the waste generating process.
7.6.6.4. If different solvents are added to a container, use a waste description list that can
accompany the container. Identify solvent components by chemical name. Write in
pencil; solvent splash and vapors quickly render inks illegible.
7.6.6.5. Do not remove flame arrestor screens from solvent can spouts or prop spring hinged lids
open. These are important safety devices.
[Rev. 2-28-12] Page 8 of 13

7.6.7. Flammable Solids:
7.6.7.1. White Phosphorus and fine metal catalysts (i.e. palladium or platinum on carbon,
platinum oxide and Raney nickel) should be stored under water.
7.6.8. Gases:
7.6.8.1. Close and tighten valves and replace safety caps on cylinders.
7.6.8.2. If the container is empty and not pressurized, write "EMPTY" on the container label.
Identify the gas that was previously held in the container. Valves will be removed from
empty gas cylinders before disposal as metal scrap.
7.6.8.3. Contact supplier to obtain guidelines for the shipment of cylinders to be returned.
7.6.8.4. Contact EH&S for removal of orphaned cylinders.
7.6.8.5. Always use hand truck to move large, compressed gas cylinders.
7.6.9. Halogenated Solvents:
7.6.9.1. Collect waste halogenated solvents in appropriate waste disposal containers.
7.6.9.2. Collect halogenated and non-halogenated solvents in separate waste containers.
7.6.9.3. Place only chemically compatible waste solvents in the container. Do not place solids,
aqueous chemical wastes, phenol, heavy metal compounds, strong acids or bases,
oxidizers, or radioactive wastes in halogenated solvent collection containers unless they
are mixed as a result of the waste generating process.
7.6.9.4. If different solvents are added to a container, use a waste description list that can
accompany the container. Identify solvent components by chemical name. Write in
pencil; solvent splash and vapors quickly render inks illegible.
7.6.9.5. Do not fill containers above the indicated fill line or to the point of overflowing.
Overfilled containers cannot be safely transported or emptied and will be refused by the
Department of Environmental Health and Safety.
7.6.9.6. Waste halogenated solvents may contain flammable solvents and should be handled as if
they are flammable. Use safety funnel to transfer liquids. Do not remove flame arrestor
screens from solvent can spouts or prop spring hinged lids open.
7.6.10. Non Halogenated Solvents:
7.6.10.1. Liquid solvents will be handled as flammable wastes outlined above.
7.6.11. Oxidizers:
7.6.11.1. Never mix oxidizers with easily oxidized organic or inorganic materials. Make sure
that the waste container is compatible with oxidizers. Treat as hazardous chemical waste
as described above.
[Rev. 2-28-12] Page 9 of 13

7.6.12. Paint:
7.6.12.1. Cans of oil based paints that still contain liquids must be disposed of as hazardous
waste. Waste paint may be accumulated at the physical plants and disposed as outlined
above. Latex or acrylic paint may be left to dry and discarded as regular trash.
7.6.13. Photographic Waste:
7.6.13.1. All photographic waste and unused photographic chemicals should be treated as
described above.
7.6.13.2. A silver recovery system must be used to bring the waste below the allowable levels
before discharge. Silver recovery units must be monitored and maintained to insure
compliance with sewer regulations. Maintenance slips and hauling receipts must be kept
by each department and forwarded to the Department of Environmental Health and
Safety upon request.
7.6.14. Poisons/Toxins:
7.6.14.1. Advise the Department of Environmental Health and Safety at the time a call for
chemical waste pick up is placed or during a pickup event that poisons and/or toxins are
to be removed.
7.6.15. Solvent Contaminated Rags:
7.6.15.1. All used oil, grease or solvent rags must be kept in an approved fire safety rag
container.
7.6.15.2. Rag safety containers must be maintained in good working order.
7.6.15.3. Solvent soaked rags must be kept in separate containers from oil/grease rags and
managed as hazardous waste until it is sent out for laundering or disposed of as
hazardous waste.
7.6.15.4. Rag containers for solvent rags must be labeled with a "Hazardous Waste Label".
7.6.15.5. Oil/grease rag containers must be appropriately labeled "Used Oily Rags"
7.6.15.6. Vendors who collect solvent rags for laundering must provide verification that they
transport used solvent rags in containers meeting the applicable DOT container
requirements as contained in New York State Department of Environmental
Conservation (DEC) Policy DSH-HW-03-09 Regulatory Status of Laundered Industrial
Rags & Soiled Clothing http://www.dec.ny.gov/regulations/8761.html (provided as
Attachment 3).
7.6.16. Surplus Chemicals:
7.6.16.1. Containers of unopened, pure laboratory chemicals which are in good condition and
no longer needed by an investigator may be held in the laboratory or other appropriate
storage area for possible redistribution to other University laboratories. Contact the
Department of Environmental Health and Safety for guidance.
[Rev. 2-28-12] Page 10 of 13

7.6.16.2. Surplus chemicals should be properly sealed, labeled, and packaged for transfer.
Investigators may opt to contact both the supplier and potential receiver of surplus
chemicals directly. The actual transfer of the chemicals may have to be arranged by the
supplier and receiver, in which case EH&S should be notified.
7.6.17. Temperature Sensitive:
7.6.17.1. Wastes containing chemicals that require a special temperature range must be
maintained by the generator at a safe temperature until they are removed by the
Department of Environmental Health and Safety.
pickup is placed or during a pickup event that chemicals requiring temperature control
are to be removed.
7.6.18. Unused Hazardous Drugs:

removed.
7.6.20. Used oil and other combustible petroleum based products:
7.6.20.1. Used pump oil, automotive oils and oil filters, or used oil from a known origin will
be handled as non hazardous and sent off-site for recycling.
7.6.20.2. Containers of waste oil with unknown origin will be tested for the presence of
polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) using the Clor-N-Oil 50 brand PCB screening kit.
This kit uses EPA SW-46 Method 9079 to determine the presence of PCBs in the 0-50
ppm range. Oil that indicates the presence of PCBs will be disposed of as New York
State regulated hazardous waste PCB oil.
7.6.20.3. Waste oil that is suspected of containing PCBs may also be tested for PCB content
using an outside lab. The lab will use EPA Method 8082 found in 49 CFR, No 209 to
determine the concentration of PCBs.
7.6.21. Miscellaneous:
7.6.21.1. Any items contaminated with a hazardous chemical are assumed to have the same
hazardous properties as the chemical, unless the items can be decontaminated or testing
demonstrates that the items are not hazardous. This includes items used to clean up
[Rev. 2-28-12] Page 11 of 13

hazardous chemical spills. The type of decontamination or testing that has to be

performed depends on the nature of the hazardous material. Contact the Department of
Environmental Health and Safety for information on decontamination procedures and
testing requirements. If the items cannot be decontaminated and testing is not performed,
the contaminated items must be treated as hazardous waste.
7.6.21.2. Discarded chemical products, off-specification chemicals, container residue and

spill residues from acute hazardous wastes are assumed to have the same hazardous
properties as the chemical and cannot be decontaminated. These wastes must be
disposed of as acutely hazardous waste. Refer to 40 CFR Part 261.33 Acute Hazardous
Wastes (P-Listed Wastes) provided as Attachment 4.
7.6.22. Wastes of unknown composition:
7.6.22.1. Wastes of unknown or incorrectly described composition present difficult handling

and disposal problems, and may require costly analyses before removal and disposal can
be accomplished. "Orphan" reaction mixtures and unidentified chemicals left by departed
laboratory workers are the most frequent source of unknowns. Investigators should label
all stored reaction mixtures with the name and concentration of the chemical compound,
date they were formed, the name of the investigator and a notebook reference.
Laboratories are encouraged to institute a check out procedure that requires departing
workers to identify all reaction mixtures and unlabeled chemicals that they have not
discarded.
7.6.22.2. In the case of a vacated investigator, the responsibility for the proper disposal of
abandoned chemicals, identifiable or unidentifiable, lies with the investigator's
department unless otherwise noted by EH&S.
7.6.22.3. Stony Brook University’s waste disposal contractor may be requested to perform
limited field screening of unknown chemicals contained in small lab size containers, less
than one (1) gallon liquid or one (1) pound solid, to determine proper disposal
classification.
7.6.22.4. Unknown chemicals present within containers greater than lab-pack size will
require analytical testing for the following parameters: pH, flashpoint, reactivity,
corrosivity, priority pollutant metals, volatile organic compounds, semi-volatile organic
compounds, pesticides, herbicides and polychlorinated biphenyls.
7.6.23. Mixed Wastes:
7.6.23.1. Due to the increasingly restrictive environmental initiatives and regulations

concerning the acceptance and disposal of wastes contaminated with mixed hazardous
materials, these wastes may warrant assessment by the Department of Environmental
Health and Safety.

Status of Laundered Industrial Rags & Soiled Clothing

DSH-HW-03-09
Regulatory Status of Laundered Industrial Rags
& Soiled Clothing
New York State Department of Environmental Conservation
DEC Policy
Issuing Authority: Division of Solid & Hazardous Materials
Date Issued: October 8, 2003 Latest Date Revised: September 24, 2003
I. Summary:
This Program Policy addresses the regulatory status of used shop towels, industrial rags, and
soiled clothing contaminated with oil or solvents when these items will be laundered.
Specifically, it defines the conditions that must be met in order for hazardous shop towels,
industrial rags, and soiled clothing to be sent as nonhazardous waste to industrial laundries or
on-site laundries. This Program Policy takes effect 30 days after the date of issuance.
II. Policy:
It is the policy of the Division that shop towels, industrial rags, and soiled clothing
(“towels/rags/clothing”) that have become contaminated with incidental amounts of
hazardous solvents may be sent to industrial laundries (or laundered on-site) as non-
hazardous waste, provided certain conditions are met. (See section V for those conditions.)
III. Purpose and Background:
In 1991, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) recognized the possible
need for developing workable approaches for the management of used wipers, and allowed
authorized states and USEPA regions to develop case-by-case policies to implement such
approaches. In response, the Division issued Technical and Administrative Guidance
Memorandum (TAGM) Number 3031, entitled “Regulatory Status of Industrial Rags and
Soiled Clothing,” on January 2, 1992 to provide an operable policy for such wipers and, by
extension, soiled clothing.
This revised Program Policy document builds upon, supercedes, and replaces the guidance
articulated in the original TAGM 3031, and reflects the experience and knowledge gained
through implementation of that TAGM over the eleven-year period since its issuance.
IV. Responsibility:
Responsibility for the interpretation and updating of this Program Policy document resides
with the Bureau of Hazardous Waste Regulation within the Division of Solid & Hazardous
Materials.

V. Procedure:
When the following conditions are met, towels/rags/clothing may be sent to industrial
laundries (or laundered on-site):
1. Towels/rags/clothing which are a listed or characteristic hazardous waste must be

managed as non-exempt hazardous waste until they are loaded onto a vehicle that will
initiate delivery of these items to an off-site laundry, or until they are laundered on-site.
(Note: Only absorbent products which qualify as towels or rags are eligible for this
Program Policy. Thus, absorbent pigs, logs, and most absorbent pads cannot qualify
unless they consist of absorbent materials identifiable as towels/rags/clothing.)
2. Notification is made in accordance with the one-time notice requirement of 6 NYCRR

Part 376.1(g)(1)(vii) of the land disposal restrictions (LDRs). However, note that: (a)
conditionally-exempt small quantity generators are exempt from this requirement
because they are not subject to the LDRs; and (b) towels/rags/clothing that are not
contaminated with listed hazardous waste and do not exhibit a hazardous waste
characteristic, even at their points of generation, are not subject to this one-time notice
requirement.
3. At the time the towels/rags/clothing are loaded onto the vehicle that will initiate
delivery to the off-site industrial laundry (or when the laundering begins on-site), the
towels/rags/clothing do not contain free liquids (as determined by the “Paint Filter
Liquids Test,” USEPA SW846 Test Method #9095) and no free liquids are present in
their containers. (Note: if this condition is met, subsequent formation of free liquids is
permissible under this Program Policy, provided the towels/rags/clothing are
managed only in USDOT-compliant containers as described in V.4 below.)
4. Until their arrival at the facility where the laundering will occur, towels/rags/clothing
are managed only in containers meeting the applicable United States Department of
Transportation (USDOT) hazardous materials packaging specifications for shipment of
that type of material. For example, if the towels/rags/clothing qualify as UN3175
(“Solids containing flammable liquid”), they must always be kept in leakproof
containers approved for the shipment of UN3175 material until their arrival at the
laundry.
Page 2 of 3

5. The towels/rags/clothing are subsequently laundered and reused, and
towels/rags/clothing of a similar type and quantity are returned to the user for reuse
after laundering.
6. No additional solvents are added to the towels/rags/clothing after they have been
containerized.
7. Applicable federal and State Department of Transportation shipping regulations are

met.
8. The facility laundering the towels/rags/clothing remains subject to all other applicable
environmental regulations.
When these conditions are met, receipt and laundering of towels/rags/clothing at

on-site and off-site laundries will not subject the laundries to either 6 NYCRR Part 373
hazardous waste permitting or Part 360 solid waste permitting, and transportation of the
towels/rags/clothing to the laundry will not subject the transporter to Part 364 waste
transporter permitting. In addition, no notification under 6 NYCRR Part 371.1(c)(7)) is required
for towels/rags/clothing being managed under this Program Policy. Finally, any residuals
obtained at the laundry from these towels/rags/clothing (including drippage, laundry sludges)
must be managed as hazardous waste only if they exhibit a hazardous waste characteristic.

the current case-by-case approach [for determining the regulatory status of
solvent-contaminated rags and wipers].”).
• USEPA letter dated February 14, 1994 (“I have enclosed policy documents from
several States and one EPA Region regarding the identification and/or
management of wipers, that provide examples of how some implementing
agencies have developed workable approaches to this issue.”) Enclosures with
that 1994 letter included a January 21, 1992 letter from USEPA’s Region 2 Office,
which referenced the Department’s 1992 laundered rags and soiled clothing
policy.
