<DIV>Do you have information on where I might find written guidance from USEPA (e.g., one of their RCRAonLine documents) saying that they consider HW generated from prisons to all be institutional waste?</DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: #002060; FONT-SIZE: 11pt">EPA considers HW generated from prisons to be institutional waste, so we go by that. If the prison is a CESQG, disposal requirements may be less restrictive in some states (like maybe they can use HH collection kiosks for HW pharms). In MN, CESQG’s have to manage their HW just like any other larger generator--with a HW transporter to a HW facility.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
