9 SATELLITE ACCUMULATION AREA Please Post Do you know your responsibilities for proper handling of hazardous waste? Please review the following requirements to ensure that you comply with environmental regulations and safe handling procedures. TRAINING: Environmental regulations require training of people who generate or handle hazardous waste. Training must take place within 90 days of date-of-hire; and annually thereafter. Training is offered on a regular schedule by Environmental Health and Safety (EHS). Check EHS Homepage for available dates and times. CONTAINER LABELING AND SECONDARY CONTAINMENT: All hazardous waste containers must have a red waste tag at the time waste is first placed into the container. The red Chemical Disposal Label must accurately identify the content of the container. All containers must also be stored in plastic bins to catch any leakage. EHS supplies secondary containers and red tags. Call EHS if you need supplies or additional information. CONTAINER CLOSURE: Hazardous waste containers must be closed at all times during storage, except when waste is being added or removed. Keep containers closed. Regulations do not permit open funnels in waste Containers when not in use. STORAGE: For safety and environmental reasons, hazardous waste must be stored in a designated "Satellite Accumulation Area". These areas must be inspected weekly for container leakage, labeling, chemical compatibility and to determine that total volume does not exceed 55 gallons. If you have full waste containers, please fill out a Chemical pick up request available on our web page,
