Hazardous Waste Program. The problem assessment program which provides the procedure for determining the cause(s) of operational or equipment failures and preventing future failures through recommended improvements, including justification for such recommendations (i.e., basis of recommendation and economic analysis).
Hazardous Waste Program. The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality is authorized by EPA to administer the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) in Oregon, including the activities addressed in this agreement. The activities are funded in part though EPA’s consolidated “Performance Partnership” grant (PPG). The Performance Partnership Agreement (PPA), together with work plans set forth the goals, sub-goals, objectives, programs, activities, deliverables, and measures of progress to address the full range of cooperative federal-state environmental programs under DEQ’s jurisdiction. The PPG is key for implementing the Agreement, and the work plans document commitments as agreed by DEQ and EPA. EPA Order 5700.7 directs program offices to ensure work plans contain well-defined outputs and outcomes, specifically: • The work plan components to be funded under the grant. • The work plan commitments for each work plan component and a time frame for their accomplishment. • A performance evaluation process and reporting schedule in accordance with 40 CFR 35.115. • The roles and responsibilities of the recipient and EPA in carrying out the work plan commitments. In a time of diminishing resources, leveraging limited resources to maximize environmental gains is essential. This hazardous waste work plan highlights priorities DEQ and EPA commit to through partnership and a collective interest in supporting and engaging in compliance and beyond compliance efforts. This PPA work aligns well with: • DEQ’s priorities to use initiatives to ensure safe management and reduction of hazardous waste and toxic chemicals, and to continuously improve and innovate to achieve greater efficiencies and environmental gains; and • EPA’s FY 2022-2026 Strategic Plan Goal 2: Take Decisive Action to Advance Environmental Justice and Civil Rights; Goal 3: Enforce Environmental Law and Ensure Compliance; Goal 6: Safeguard and Revitalize Communities and Goal 7: Ensure Safety of Chemicals for People and the Environment DEQ and EPA modified and signed the most recent Memorandum of Agreement on November 30, 2017, to ensure consistency with State program modifications in connection with the annual State grant work program or PPA. Modifications to the MOA appendices will be made this PPA cycle to ensure consistency amongst all Region 10 States. In 2013, the Hazardous Waste program adopted a strategic plan with a vision of leading Oregon to protect human health and the environment by reducing the generation and en...
Hazardous Waste Program. The Contractor shall, in cooperation with OCCM, implement and manage a HAZMAT program for Facilities in accordance with the MMP. The Contractor shall perform spill containment and clean up for hazardous material spills of fifty-five (55) gallons or less. Larger spills will require the assistance of community HAZMAT first response. The Contractor must properly dispose of all hazardous material spill wastes, and provide the appropriate manifests and HAZMAT bills of lading to OCCM. All employees performing HAZMAT operations shall be State of California certified and trained to the appropriate level for which they work. All training is the responsibility of the Contractor. The Contractor must obtain and retain hazardous waste disposal permits, submit monthly reports of collections and disposals, and retain documentation for the duration of this Agreement. OCCM shall select the hazardous material disposal facilities, and all materials for disposal shall be manifested in the name of the AOC. The Contractor shall provide programs and guidelines that enable the Facility hazardous waste generators to properly collect and handle the waste streams they generate and track the containers from cradle-to-grave. The Contractor shall, at no additional cost to the AOC, develop policies and procedures to safely and effectively work in and around hazardous materials as asbestos, lead-based paint, etc. The known presence of hazardous material will not be justification for delays in Work. The Contractor shall operate, maintain, and repair RPIE and other assigned assets. Facilities maintenance and repair requirements include, but are not limited to, all elements of the “Standard Classification of Building Elements and Related Site Work” – UNIFORMAT II.

Hazardous Waste Program. Mission: To ensure that all hazardous wastes are handled and managed in ways that protects the public and environment from the moment of waste generation until final disposal or destruction.
Hazardous Waste Program. EPA will perform a mid-year and end-of-year review of all aspects of the hazardous waste program. The mid-year review will be less rigorous, but the end-of-year review will be complete and comprehensive, as appropriate. For the Inspection and Enforcement program elements, the State Review Framework (SRF) will be used every four years. Depending on the SRF findings, appropriate levels of oversight will be employed in the interim years. EPA will use the Program Oversight elements, defined in 2004 by both EPA and the Region 8 states, to oversight the permitting, closure, post-closure, and corrective action program elements.
Hazardous Waste Program. Number and percent of high-ranked GPRA hazardous waste facilities with human exposures under control (CA725). • Number and percent of high-ranked GPRA hazardous waste facilities with migration of contaminated ground water under control (CA750). • Number and percent of high-ranked GPRA hazardous waste facilities with corrective measure construction complete (CA550). • Number and percent of high-ranked GPRA hazardous waste facilities with CA performance standards attained/CA process terminated (CA900/CA999).
Hazardous Waste Program. 1. The Contractor shall, in cooperation with AOC implement and manage a HAZMAT program for Facility in accordance with the MP. The Contractor shall perform spill containment and clean up for hazardous material spills of fifty-five (55) gallons or less. Larger spills will require the assistance of community HAZMAT first response. The Contractor must properly dispose of all hazardous material spill wastes, and provide the appropriate manifests and HAZMAT bills of lading to AOC.
2. All employees performing HAZMAT operations shall be State of California certified and trained to the appropriate level for which they work. All training is the responsibility of the Contractor. The Contractor must obtain and retain hazardous waste disposal permits, submit monthly reports of collections and disposals, and retain documentation for the duration of this Agreement. AOC shall select the hazardous material disposal Facility, and all materials for disposal shall be manifested in the name of the AOC.
3. The Contractor shall provide programs and guidelines that enable the Facility hazardous waste generators to properly collect and handle the waste streams they generate and track the containers from cradle-to-grave.
4. The Contractor shall, at no additional cost to the AOC, develop policies and procedures to safely and effectively work in and around hazardous materials as asbestos, lead-based paint, etc. The known presence of hazardous material will not be justification for delays in Work.
