A brief description of how the institution safely disposes of hazardous, universal, and non-regulated chemical waste:
Our hazardous waste is dealt with by Heritage Environmental Services which is state and federal approved hazardous waste service. Heritage transports the waste to their yard in Collage, Arizona where it is properly disposed of. Most of the Hazardous and chemical waste collected at LMU is byproduct of laboratory work.
Medical waste is collected weekly. This is sent to Vernon, California through the company Stericycle who is also federally approved to dispose of waste in the proper way. Once in Vernon, the waste is disposed of properly and safely.
