Hazardous Waste Compliance Section

Within the Hazardous Waste Management Bureau (HWMB) is the Hazardous Waste Compliance Section. This section conducts inspections of hazardous waste generators and can provide a limited degree of on-site technical assistance to the regulated community. This section participates in outreach to the regulated community through training classes and workshops. Compliance assistance is provided by responding to requests for clarification by way of the HWMB telephone hotline (866-Haz-Wast), and written regulatory interpretations. Compliance monitoring takes place when business and government entities are inspected to assess compliance with hazardous waste and used oil regulations. Within this section is the Hazardous Waste Enforcement Subsection.
