If you answered "Yes," you may be ready for a household hazardous waste (HHW) collection. Tennessee has a mobile HHW collection service that goes from county to county every Saturday from mid-March to mid-November. If you are a resident of Knox Hamilton , or Davidson counties, you may take your HHW to one of the permanent collection sites located in your county.

These products may be corrosive, explosive, flammable, a skin or eye irritant, toxic or radioactive. Examples of these products include: paint and decorating supplies, solvents and cleaning products, herbicides and pesticides, lawn care products such as fertilizer, and automotive products. When these products are discarded, they may become hazardous waste; what we call "household hazardous waste." The average American household generates about 20 pounds of household hazardous waste each year. Across Colorado, this equates to over 33,000,000 pounds of household hazardous waste being discarded every year.

Division activities are land-based, regulating both solid waste and hazardous waste through specialized programs and functions. These include landfill permits, hazardous waste permits, state remediation program, used oil management, lead-based paint abatement, special waste, universal waste, and annual waste reporting. More detailed information is available through the links in the sidebar or in the text. The Solid Waste Management Program was implemented in 1971, with the promulgation of the Regulations Governing Solid Waste Processing and Disposal. Facilities that perform solid waste processing activities are registered through a Permit by Rule process. Permits are issued to disposal facilities for handling the following categories of waste:

Resources Directive 91/689/EEC on hazardous waste Consultation Document Deadline for comments: ( What this consultation is about The Hazardous Waste Directive is one of the oldest EU legislative acts on waste. Its provisions are indispensable for safeguarding a high level of environmental protection; and the differentiation it introduces between hazardous and non hazardous waste is along with the differentiation between recovery and disposal laid down in the Waste Framework Directive a key element of waste management policy. The elaboration of the Strategy on Prevention and Recycling on Waste includes an assessment of existing waste policies. In this regard the Hazardous Waste Directive will undergo a detailed examination. One objective of this review is to improve waste legislation by simplifying it. Therefore the strong connection between the provisions on waste and those exclusively applied to hazardous waste might justify their integration into one Directive. With the intention of preparing a future Commission position on this subject we have formulated the following questions on which we would welcome your comments.

According to Article 5 (2) of Directive 2002/95/EC the Commission is required to consult the relevant stakeholders before amending the annex. The results of this consultation will be forwarded to the Technical Adaptation Committee of the Directive 2002/95/EC and the Commission services will provide an account of the information received.

Current management of hazardous waste is subject to a complex array of statutes, bylaws and regulations policy documents and waste management plans including the: Resource Management Act 1991, Local Government Act 1974, Health Act 1956 and Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act 1996.

Climate Change Hazardous Waste Disposal Advice Hazardous materials can often be identified by certain characteristics that they possess such as being corrosive, flammable, reactive or toxic. Hazardous materials are used at most federal facilities in the Atlantic Region for activities as ordinary as cleaning to highly specialized work with radioactive materials. Most materials are consumed during use. Some hazardous materials, however, may no longer be required, such as laboratory chemicals, some may have reached the end of their lifespan, such as batteries and used oil, and some may have been found to be a health or environmental concern, such as leaded paint and asbestos. These hazardous materials, and sometimes their containers, become waste and must be disposed of safely. Environment Canada has a mandated responsibility to provide advice on hazardous waste disposal to other federal departments and crown agencies. This mandate is set out in The Government Organization Act, Treasury Board Guidelines on Real Property Management, the Fisheries Act and Environment Canada's Toxic Substance Management Policy. However, as soon as the waste leaves the federal property, it is subject to the applicable provincial disposal regulations. These regulations may specify what landfills are licensed to receive particular wastes and what facilities are licensed to handle hazardous wastes.
