Abstract | The module introduces a specific hazardous waste identification process, which involves asking and analyzing a series of questions about any waste being evaluated. It analyzes in detail the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) definition of 'hazardous waste.' It explains concepts that are essential to identifying a RCRA hazardous waste: hazardous waste listing, hazardous waste characteristics, the 'mixture' and 'derived-from' rules, the 'contained-in' policy, and the hazardous waste identification rules (HWIR). |
