Among the changes to the hazardous waste regulations made by the Generator Improvements Rule were revisions to the preparedness and prevention regulations for a large quantity generator of hazardous waste (LQG).

This month's newsletter looks closely at three critical sections of these regulations. If you wish to see everything I've done on this subject, read here .

I've also included other informative articles based on questions I've received from the regulated community (maybe one of you!)

 Required Equipment at a Large Quantity Generator
USEPA regulations require a LQG to have certain equipment in place to prepare for and prevent hazardous waste emergencies and to be able to respond if one were to occur.

Testing and Maintenance of Equipment at a Large Quantity Generator
Emergency equipment required of a LQG (see previous article) must be tested and maintained to ensure proper operation in an emergency. Learn more here.
Access to Communications or Alarm Systems at a Large Quantity Generator
 A small change in text but a big impact from the Generator Improvements Rule. LQGs must now ensure “direct and unimpeded” access to their communication or alarm systems. Read this article before you decide what this means at your facility.
