NEW - Effective OCTOBER 26, 2011, Small Quantity Generators (SQGs) and Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generators (CESQGs) of RCRA hazardous waste in Nevada are no longer required to file a Hazardous Waste Biennial Report.
If your site did not generate hazardous waste during the 2011 calendar year and you wish to deactivate your EPA Identification Number, follow the instructions at: How to Deactivate Your EPA Identification Number
What is the purpose of the report?
The purpose of the report is to inform the public, local government, State and Federal officials about the on-site management of hazardous waste and to provide verification of the "cradle-to-grave" disposition of hazardous waste.
What to report?
Site Identification Information
Site Identification information must be reported on the first four pages of the EPA 8700-13 A/B form. You will report your current hazardous waste generator status as of the date of submitting your 2011 Hazardous Waste Biennial Report on the Site ID Form in Item 10.A.1- Generator of Hazardous Waste. Your current status may be different from the status during the report year that requires you to file the Hazardous Waste Report.
Type and Quantity of Hazardous Waste Generation
The remaining pages in the report detail the type and amount of hazardous waste that was generated on site, shipped off-site and/or received from off-site during the 2011 report year. The report also includes the EPA Identification Number of the site that hazardous waste was shipped to and from. Biennial Reports are filed for odd numbered calendar years only, such as 2007, 2009, 2011, etc.
How do you report? NEW - All hazardous waste generators MUST use electronic reporting.
Nevada has selected electronic reporting software developed by the American Resource Management, called Easitrak, which is accessible through your computer's internet browser (Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher). The web-based reporting software is available for free at EASITRAK.
TSD and LQG sites:
