Upcoming Webinars in the Series
April 2, 2020 10:00 - 11:00 AM
Waste Characterization and Hazardous Waste Generator Status
In this webinar, attendees will learn the basic steps for determining if a waste is a hazardous waste, liquid industrial by-product, or non-hazardous solid waste, and how to calculate a site’s hazardous waste generator status. These concepts are vital to understanding how to properly manage and dispose of waste. It’s vital because the hazardous waste regulations require each business at each site to evaluate the character and composition of their waste and determine the total weight of all hazardous waste generated each month. Until this information is known, you don’t know the legal disposal options for the waste.

Hazardous Waste and Liquid Industrial By-products Accumulation, Labeling, and Shipping
In this webinar, attendees will learn about the accumulation, labeling, and shipping requirements that apply to the management of hazardous waste and liquid industrial by-products at very small quantity generators, small quantity generators, and large quantity generators of hazardous waste.
May 5, 2020 10:00 - 11:00 AM
Hazardous Waste and Liquid Industrial By-products Inspections and Recordkeeping
In this webinar, attendees will learn about what to expect for an inspection and the specific records an inspector will want to see. It will cover records that need to be maintained (e.g. waste characterizations, monthly waste inventory, uniform manifests, land disposal restriction notifications, etc.) and provide an overview of what happens when an inspector comes to your facility.
June 3, 2020 10:00 - 11:00 AM
Universal Waste
In this webinar, attendees will learn the basics about Michigan’s universal waste regulations. Attendees will learn why the universal waste regulations exist, what a universal waste is, and how universal waste must be handled and disposed to meet the universal waste partial exemption from hazardous waste regulation.
June 17, 2020 10:00 - 11:00 AM
What Small Businesses Need to Know about Hazardous Waste
In this webinar, attendees will learn:
What is a hazardous waste, a non-hazardous liquid waste called liquid industrial by-product, and a universal waste.
How to determine if a site is a very small quantity generator (VSQG, formerly conditionally exempt small quantity generator or CESQG) of hazardous waste subject to less regulation than larger hazardous waste generators.
What a generator must do to meet the VSQG exemption and be subject to less regulation than larger hazardous waste generators.
How VSQG hazardous waste and non-hazardous liquids (liquid industrial by-products) must be handled, transported, and recycled or disposed to meet Michigan’s environmental regulations.
What the inspector looks for during a hazardous waste and liquid industrial by-products generator inspection.
