For more mfovsnaikm <br />about hazardous waste storage requirements, <br />request hazardous waste foct sheet 41.04, <br />L^tmd Store Hatardom Waate Caneedy. <br />from the Business Assistance Unit. <br />6. Use screens in the drain to prevent solids from <br />reachng the trap. <br />7. Use drip pans to collect fluids. Tryfintto <br />pick up liquids from the floor using a <br />squeegee and dustpan. Combine recovered <br />liquids with waste of the same type. For <br />example, oil spills recovered with a squeegee <br />and dust pan may be placed in the used oil <br />container. <br />If you cannot collect or recover liquid, use a <br />sorbent material to soak it up. I fusing sorbent <br />materials, they must be managed in die same <br />way as the waste material they contain. (If <br />th^ contain used oil, for example, they may <br />be wrung and reused, burned for energy <br />recovery or recycled.) Disposal of sorbent <br />material in the solid waste is not allowed <br />unless it has been shown to be nonkazardoos. <br />I. Prepare and train for emergencies. Have a <br />plan and the necessary equipment in place to <br />quickly clean up a spill before it can escape. <br />9. Design and implement a plan to reduce the <br />amount of slush and snow/sand'sal: carried <br />in on dres before parking indoors. <br />For more information or help with prevention, contact <br />the Minnesota Technical Assistance Prograra <br />(MnTAP). (See page 4 for telephone number). <br />Miintenanc* <br />Maintenance b second only to prevention in <br />importance. Traps that arc not cleaned regularly may <br />allow oils and other chemkab into a septic system, <br />holding tank or sanitary sewer, resuhing in <br />problems and/or environmental damage. Be aware <br />that maintenance of these systems may involve entry <br />into a confined space and require additional employee <br />training and precautions. <br />Wisto Manaotnwnt Options <br />If you bave ant followed tbc Best <br />Management Praclkes (BMPs) on page 5, <br />you will need to test the liquid and solid <br />portions to determine whether or not each is <br />hazardous. Test results will determine how <br />to manage each portion. Nonhazardous trap <br />waste may be managed according to the <br />guidance below. Hazardous waste must be <br />managed according to the hazardous waste <br />rules. For more information about hazardous <br />waste management requirements, contact the <br />Hazardous Waste Business Assistance Unit. <br />If yon carefHUy folmv the BMPs, the Minnesota <br />Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) allows you to <br />assume the drain and trap wastes are aonhazardons. <br />Here are the options for managing them: <br />• Floaliag Layer. IfBMPs are carefully <br />followed, little or no floating oily material <br />should accumulate. (If there is a significant <br />floating layer, the MPCA must assume that <br />B.MPs were not fc llowed.) If a thin fl^Mliiig <br />layer of oil b present: <br />I. Skim or vacuuA it off and recycle it <br />with other used oil. <br />2. Use an absorbent pad to remove the oil. <br />Wring and reuse the pad or recycle it <br />w ith other oil*contaminated sorbem <br />materiab by laundering, oil-exttaclion or <br />burning for energy recovery.
