Greetings!
The third quarter of 2011 is winding down and we are rapidly approaching the Fall/Winter holiday season.  My upcoming schedule is a mix of Public Training Events, On-Site Training, and specialty speaking engagements (see right).

How Does US EPA Define a "Closed Container"?
Short answer, it doesn't. The regulations are best thought of as a performance standard that clearly states what US EPA hopes to accomplish - containers of hazardous waste are vapor-tight and spill proof - without specifying the exact means to accomplish these goals. This leaves it up to the generator to determine what is acceptable to the US EPA, and just as important, to its state agency.More...

An Extension of the On-Site Accumulation Time Limit for Generators of F006 Hazardous Waste

The Use of the Identification Number on a Placard
We commonly see the identification number displayed on placarded vehicles of tank trucks and closed cargo trailers. Did you know there are times when an identification number is required, but cannot appear on the placard.

 Upon returning from Columbia, SC recently I was asked by a family member what I thought of the city as they were considering to relocate there. I told them the road from the airport to the hotel seemed nice. If you come to one of my public events, I hope you are able to extend the business trip into a short vacation for yourself and your family. There is more to a city than its airport.
