hospitals. I believe (federally speaking, states will vary) the prison status would depend on many factors such as: who operates the prison (private company or govt run), does the prison have a hospital, their generator status, etc.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">I was trying to point out that EPA views HW pharms generated from LTC's to be a business generated waste, not a HH waste. The earlier
reference to an EPA publication stated that if the pharms are under the control of the resident (of a LTC, prison, hospital, etc), then they can be managed as a household waste. However, I do not know of any LTC, prison or hospitals that allow patients to
have control of their pharms. The institutions store pharms at a central location and their staff distribute pharms to residents/patients, therefore, the waste is institutional waste.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">The only possible exception to management other than as a HW via a HW transporter to a HW facility is if the institution is a CESQG generator.
That small level of generator may have more flexibility from state to state because EPA's regulations are lighter for these small generators, hence the name "conditionally exempt". If the institutions distribute the pharms and are SQG or LQG's there is no
way out of management as a HW. But remember that only a small percentage of pharms are designated to be HW and the list of what is considered hazardous also varies from state to state.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
