WASTE MINIMIZATION CODES
The following codes provide a description of existing or new waste minimization efforts undertaken to reduce the volume and/or toxicity of hazardous waste generated at the facility.
You may provide in the Comments section any additional information (including toxicity and quantity reductions to the extent that data are available) that will help NYSDEC to understand your efforts to prevent pollution, minimize waste, or recycle in regards to this waste stream. Additionally, you may explain in the Comments section why your efforts were either successful or unsuccessful or why you did not implement waste minimization efforts for this reporting year.
I. The facility initiated waste minimization efforts prior to the reporting year and continued these
efforts during the reporting year for this hazardous waste
Code Description
Examples
A Continued initiatives to reduce quantity ?
Improved production/synthesis processes, e.g.,
and/or toxicity of this waste
increased efficiency in product usage/product
formulation, used less toxic or non-hazardous
ingredients, modified product composition, or
implemented technology conversion.
?
Modified equipment, layout, and/or piping, e.g.,
longer auto bath analyzers, wastewater treatment system
upgraded.
?
Undertook inventory control/waste management
processes or safety/good operating practices, e.g.,
materials shelf-life control, clearinghouse for materials
exchange, better labeling procedures, improved
maintenance scheduling/record keeping/procedures,
control production schedule to minimize equipment and
feedstock changeovers, bulk systems that replace drums,
improved storage, spill/leak/accident prevention,
cleaning/degreasing, etc.
B Continued initiatives to recycle the waste The waste was used, reused, or reclaimed as a result of a
either on-site or off-site
change in the product formulation, product's chemical
ingredients, or equipment; materials management process
with a goal of sustainable use of materials, etc.
II. The Facility initiated waste minimization efforts during the reporting year for this hazardous waste
C Implemented new initiatives to reduce
See examples above for Code A
quantity and/or toxicity of this waste
D Implemented new initiatives to recycle the See examples above for Code B
waste either on-site or off-site
III. The facility examined or attempted waste minimization efforts for this hazardous waste, but
determined it was impracticable to implement these efforts; or the facility did not attempt waste
minimization efforts for this waste
N Waste minimization efforts found to be
Economic constraints or not economically feasible; technical
economically or technically impracticable limitation of manufacturing operations, problems preventing
or halting efforts (e.g., concern of declined product quality);
not appearing to be feasible due to regulatory issues (e.g.,
permitting requirements or burdens); lack of available
technology, etc.
X No waste minimization efforts were
The waste was received from off-site and was not generated
implemented for this waste
at this location; the waste is infrequently generated.
