Hazardous Materials and Waste Disposal
Hazardous Material & Waste
Hazardous materials are substances that exhibit one of four characteristics (corrosivity, ignitability, reactivity, toxicity) or are specifically listed as hazardous waste by the EPA or California EPA. Hazardous waste from the University's operations, including laboratories, must be managed according to State and Federal regulations. Not doing so can lead to civil and criminal penalties.
Campus employees generating hazardous waste must complete annual training. Employees include Faculty, Student Assistants, and Staff. Training can be completed by attending classroom training or completing computer-based training. Contact EHS (x5-4138) if you have questions about the training.
