AYes,that handler may self-transport,but <br /> in doing so,must meet the UW <br /> transporter requirements. <br /> QIs a Hazardous Waste Manifest <br /> needed if a UW lamp handler <br /> chooses to send their UW lamps to a <br /> destination facility located in a state that <br /> hasn't adopted the universal waste rule for <br /> lamps? <br /> AIf those lamps are considered hazardous <br /> waste in the state the destination facility <br /> is located,then a Hazardous Waste <br /> Manifest would be required by the receiving state. <br /> Additionally,interstate transport of UW lamps may <br /> take the lamps through states that have not adopted <br /> the universal waste rule for lamps, Those states that <br /> have not adopted the universal waste rule for lamps <br /> may require a Hazardous Waste Manifest for the <br /> portion of the trip those lamps are in their state. <br /> Check with the destination facility and/or the states <br /> the lamps will travel through to be sure of the <br /> requirements. <br /> Can I be a generator and a handler? <br /> AYes,a business that generates dangerous <br /> waste,(for example,a flammable <br /> solvent)and that generates and manages <br /> their universal waste would be considered both a <br /> dangerous waste generator and a universal waste <br /> handler. A handler of universal waste could also <br /> become a generator of dangerous waste. For <br /> example,a universal waste handler of lamps may <br /> have some lamps break,releasing mercury. The <br /> residue from the spill would most likely designate as <br /> a dangerous waste and would need managed as such. <br /> Residues from such spills could not continue to be <br /> managed as universal waste. <br /> 3-3 <br /> Attachment to Focus Sheet 00-04-020, Universal Waste Rule for Dangerous Waste Lamps <br />
