A brief description of steps taken to reduce hazardous, universal, and non-regulated chemical waste:
All wastes are identified, characterized and profiled to ensure appropriate disposal or recycling. Transportation, disposal or recycling of materials is handled by a licensed contractor. Wastes are collected and disposed regularly to prevent accumulation of materials. Departments are instructed to only purchase quantities necessary to perform work. Chemical inventory system enables users to see if desired items are already in inventory, rather than purchasing more. Substitution of less hazardous materials is encouraged.
