Hazardous Waste Generation: Annual Report
December 5, 2012: The Idaho Hazardous Waste Management Act (HWMA) requires all hazardous waste generators to submit an annual report. As a large quantity generator of hazardous waste from laboratory, office and shop operations, the University of Idaho must satisfy this requirement. To assist in the collection of information pertaining to waste generation on campus, please cap or close all containers you are currently using to accumulate hazardous waste and submit a Chemical Waste Collection Request for each container no later than Monday, December 31, 2012.

Continuous Hazardous Waste Generation from Laboratory Instrumentation
September 10, 2012: Does your laboratory use High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), spectrometers, flow analyzers, or other instrumentation that continuously generate hazardous waste? If so, you may need to evaluate the manner in which the waste is collected. EHS has prepared an informational bulletin that describes the key considerations to safely accumulate and dispose of the chemical waste.
