EPA Identification Numbers — Transporters of hazardous waste and generators of greater than 100 kg (220 lbs) per month of hazardous waste are required to obtain a permanent EPA Identification Number. The permanent EPA Identification Number is obtained by submitting a complete EPA Form 8700-12 "Notification of Regulated Waste Activity" application form to the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection. Application forms and instructions are provided from the U.S. EPA hazardous waste data forms internet website.
