INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING
PACKAGE A - THE 1987 HAZARDOUS WASTE GENERATION
AND SHIPMENT REPORT
INTRODUCTION
The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA) requires hazardous waste
generators and treatment, storage, and disposal facilities to report to the U. S. Environmental
Protection Agency or authorized States at least every two years on their hazardous waste activities.
The vehicle for this reporting is the RCRA Annual or Biennial Report. For the 1987 reporting
cycle, the Annual/Biennial Report format has been revised.
There are two packages of forms for the 1987 reporting cycle:
Package A: 1987 Hazardous Waste Generation and Shipment Report; and
Package B: 1987 Hazardous Waste Generation and Management Report.
Every site receiving this mailing must return one of these report packages. Do NOT complete both
packages. Completion of the appropriate report package completely satisfies a site's 1987 RCRA
annual or biennial reporting responsibilities. The nature of a site's 1987 hazardous waste activities
determines which of the two report packages it must complete. To determine which report
package is appropriate for your site, read the reporting criteria and definitions below.
WHICH REPORT PACKAGE MUST BE COMPLETED FOR THIS SITE?
One report package must be completed for every site receiving this mailing:
Complete Package A-if, in 1987, hazardous wastes were not managed at this site, as
defined in the box below, OR
Complete Package B-if, in 1987, hazardous wastes were managed at this site, as defined in
the box below.
Hazardous wastes were managed at a site if, in 1987, it met any of the following criteria:
(1) the site operated under RCRA Interim Status (Part A Permit Application filed); or
(2) the site operated under a RCRA Permit (Part B Permit Application approved); or
(3) the site treated, disposed, or recycled hazardous wastes on site in units exempt from
RCRA permitting requirements (for example, tank systems used to treat
wastewaters containing hazardous waste prior to discharge under an NPDES permit;
on-site distillation units used to recover waste solvents; etc.).
NOTE: For purpose of these reporting requirements, the above definition of hazardous waste
management does not include short-term accumulation of hazardous waste in areas not requiring
RCRA permits.
-------
This booklet contains instructions for completing Package A: Hazardous Waste Generation and,
Shipment Report. These instructions explain which forms in Package A must be completed and
how to complete them. If hazardous wastes were managed at this site in 1987, as defined in the box
above, you should instead follow the instructions for Package B and complete the forms in that
report package. (If this site is required to complete Package B and you did not receive the report
package or its Instructions, contact the office listed on page 6 under "WHERE AND WHEN TO
FILE" and request a copy.)
OVERVIEW OF FORMS IN PACKAGE A
Package A consists of five forms. You may not be required to complete all forms in Package A for
this site, but you must at least complete and return the first form, Form 1C - Identification and
Certification. The instructions for each form explain which sites are required to complete it, which
is determined by the nature of each site's 1987 hazardous waste management activities, and
whether the site met the Minimum Quantity Reporting Requirements presented on page 4.
You will find specific instructions for each form later in this booklet. An overview of the forms in
Package A is given below.
Form 1C Identification and Certification.
This form must be completed and returned by every site required to complete
Package A. The purpose of this form is to provide an update to EPA and State
agencies on the regulatory status of sites that have submitted RCRA
Notification Forms.
Form GS Generation and Shipment
The purpose of this form is to provide the quantity and a description of each
hazardous waste generated at and/or shipped from the site during 1987.
Form OI Off-Site Identification
The purpose of this form is to identify the name and address of each site to
which hazardous waste was shipped or from which hazardous waste was
received during 1987.
Form WM Waste Minimization, Part I
The purpose of this form is to describe the efforts taken to reduce the quantity
and toxicity of hazardous waste generated at the site and to recycle generated
hazardous waste.
Form WM Waste Minimization, Part II
The purpose of this form is to quantify the results of waste minimization
activities or projects undertaken at the site.
-------
AUTHORITY
The authorizing legislation for the 1987 Hazardous Waste Generation and Management Report is
contained in Sections 3002, 3004, and 3007 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of
1976 (RCRA), as amended by the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984 (HSWA).
Sections 3002 and 3004 require hazardous waste generators and treatment, storage, and disposal
facilities to report to EPA or authorized States at least every two years on: the quantities, nature,
and disposition of generated hazardous waste; the efforts taken to reduce the volume and toxicity
of hazardous waste; and changes achieved in the volume and toxicity of hazardous waste in
comparison to previous years. Section 3007 authorizes EPA and authorized States to obtain
additional data to support development or enforcement of RCRA regulations.
CONFIDENTIALITY
You may not withhold information from the Administrator of EPA because it is confidential.
However, when the Administrator is requested to consider information confidential, he is required
to treat it according to EPA regulations contained in Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations,
Part 2, Subpart B.
These regulations provide that a business may, if it desires, assert a claim of business
confidentiality covering all or part of the information furnished to EPA. Section 2.203(b) explains
how to assert a claim.
The Agency will treat information covered by such a claim in accordance with the procedures set
forth in the Subpart B regulations. If someone requests release of information covered by a claim
of confidentiality or if the Agency otherwise decides to make a determination as to whether such
information is entitled to confidential treatment, EPA will notify the business. EPA will not
disclose information as to when a claim of confidentiality has been made except to the extent and
in accordance with 40 CFR Part 2, Subpart B. If, however, the business does not claim
confidentiality when it furnishes information to EPA, EPA may make the information available to
the public without notice to the business.
-------
MINIMUM QUANTITY REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
This site met the Minimum Quantity Reporting Requirements if, in 1987, the site met any of the

-------
FORM 1C
Section V: Certification
Do not complete Section V until all forms required for submission are present, complete, and
accurate. Then, enter your full name, title, and the date. Read the certification statement, and
sign the form. Refer to page 6 of this booklet for mailing instructions.
Section VI: Does this site's EPA ID authorize hazardous waste generation?
The purpose of Section VI is to determine: (1) whether this site has submitted an EPA
Notification Form 8700-12 indicating that hazardous wastes are or were generated at the site; or
(2) whether the site's EPA Identification Number was assigned by EPA or the State because
hazardous wastes are or were generated at this site.
If you have submitted and subsequently withdrawn a generator notification, mark [X] in the "No"
box and skip to Section VII.
If you have never notified EPA that hazardous waste was generated at this site and if the site does
not generate hazardous waste, mark [X] in the "No" box and skip to Section VII.
Otherwise, answer the questions in Section VI to update the information on generation of
hazardous waste that this site provided EPA when it obtained its EPA Identification Number.
Definitions of key terms are provided below. A site which generates solid waste must determine if
that waste is a hazardous waste or if that waste is "excluded" from regulation under 40 CFR
261.4(b). If that waste is excluded it need not be reported. A list of excluded wastes is provided in
the 1987 Hazardous Waste Generation, Shipment and Management Report Codebook, page 46.
Under RCRA regulations, every site which generates, treats, stores, or disposes of hazardous
waste must inform EPA of its hazardous waste activity by filing EPA Form 8700-12, Notification of
Hazardous Waste Activity. After receiving the notification form, EPA assigns an identification
number (EPA ID) to the site. Refer to your copy of Form 8700-12 to determine if this site's
notification status has changed and needs to be updated.
EPA regulates generators of hazardous waste according to the three categories defined below.
Category 1: More than 1000 kg (2.200 Ibs) in one or more months (Large Quantity Generator^
Mark [X] if your site's hazardous waste generation during 1987 was correctly
described by the following criteria: (1) generated in one or more months: 1,000 kg
(2,200 Ibs) or more of hazardous waste, more than 1 kg (2.2 Ibs) of acute hazardous
waste, or more than 100 kg (220 Ibs) of acute hazardous spill debris; or (2)
accumulated at any time during 1987 more than: 1,000 kg (2,200 Ibs) of hazardous
waste, 1 kg (2.2 Ibs) of acute hazardous waste, or 100 kg (220 Ibs) acute hazardous
spill debris.
Category 2: More than 100 kg (220 Ibs) but no more than 1.000 kg (2.200 Ibs) in anv single
month (Small Quantity Generator)
Mark [X] if your site's hazardous waste generation during 1987 made it a small
quantity generator. A site is a small quantity generator in any given month if it
meets the following criteria: (1) in every single month, the site generated more
than 100 kg (220 Ibs) but no more than 1,000 kg (2,200 Ibs) of hazardous waste, and
no more than 1 kg (2.2 Ibs) of acutely hazardous waste, and no more than 100 kg
(220 Ibs) of material from the cleanup of a spillage of acutely hazardous wastes;
and (2) the site accumulated no more than 1 kg (2.2 Ibs) of acutely hazardous
waste, and no more than 100 kg (220 Ibs) of material from the cleanup of a spillage
of acutely hazardous wastes; and (3) the site stored its wastes in tanks or containers
in a manner consistent with regulatory provisions.
-------
FORM 1C
To be a small quantity generator for 1987, a site must meet these criteria each
month. If a site meets the criteria for "more than 1,000 kg (2,220 Ibs) in one or
more months" in any month of 1987, mark [X] in the Category 1 box instead.
Category 3: No more than 100 kg (220 Ibsl in every single month (Conditionally Exempt Small
Quantity Generator)
Mark [X] if your site's hazardous waste generation during 1987 made it a
conditionally exempt small quantity generator for every month. A site is a
conditionally exempt small quantity generator (CESQG) in any given month, if for
that month, it meets the following criteria: (1) the site generated no more than 100
kg (220 Ibs) of hazardous waste, and no more than 1 kg (2.2 Ibs) of acutely
hazardous waste, and no more than 100 kg (220 Ibs) of material from the cleanup of
a spillage of acutely hazardous wastes; and (2) the site accumulated no more than
1,000 kg (2200 Ibs) of hazardous waste, and no more than 1 kg (2.2 Ibs) of acutely
hazardous waste, and no more than 100 kg (220 Ibs) of material from the cleanup of
a spillage of acutely hazardous wastes; and (3) the site treated or disposed of the
hazardous wastes in a manner consistent with regulatory provisions. (40 CFR
261.5B and 261.5g3).
To be a conditionally exempt small quantity generator for 1987, a site must meet
these criteria every month of that year. If site meets the criteria for either box
above in any month of 1987, one of those boxes should be checked instead.
Section VII: Does this site have RCRA Interim Status or a RCRA Permit to treat, store, or
dispose of hazardous waste?
Answer the questions in Section VII to update information on this site's treatment, storage, or
disposal activities. Definitions of key terms are provided below. A site which generates solid
waste must determine if that waste is a hazardous waste or if that waste is "excluded" from
regulation under 40 CFR 261.4(b). If that waste is excluded, it need not be reported. A list of
excluded wastes is provided in the 1987 Hazardous Waste Generation, Shipment and Management
Report Codebook, page 46.
Part A Permit Application:
The application is the first step in obtaining a RCRA permit to treat, store, or dispose of
hazardous waste. This application defines the processes to be used for treatment, storage, and
disposal of hazardous waste; the design capacity of such processes; and the specific hazardous
wastes to be handled at the applying facility. A Part A application must have been filed to obtain
"interim status" to allow facilities, existing prior to promulgation of the RCRA regulations, to
continue operations until their final permit is issued. Thus, if your site has either interim status or
a final RCRA permit to handle hazardous waste, a Part A application has been submitted for your
site.
RCRA Regulated Units:
These are units which treat, store, or dispose of hazardous waste and are subject to regulation (i.e.,
required to have a RCRA permit). Interim Status Permits are included. Excluded are containers
and tanks used exclusively for short-term accumulation exempted under 40 CFR 262.34.
Section VIII: Do you wish to withdraw this site's generator notification or EPA Part A
application?
Answer the questions in Section VIII to clarify your status. If you answer "Yes," withdraw
generator notification, EPA will automatically withdraw your generator notification. However, if
you answer "Yes," withdraw Part A permit application, EPA will contact your site to begin
procedures for permit application withdrawal.
10
-------
FORM 1C
Section IX: Does this site have an area not requiring a RCRA Part A or Part B permit that is used
exclusively for the short-term accumulation of hazardous waste?
Mark [X] in the "Yes" box if your site has an area not requiring a RCRA permit that is used
exclusively for the short-term accumulation of hazardous waste. Report whether the area has
tanks and/or containers. Report the number of tanks and their total capacity in gallons. Do not
report the number of containers or their capacity.
Mark [X] in the "No" box if your site did not accumulate any hazardous waste in tanks or
containers during the reporting year.

FORM WM - WASTE MINIMIZATION PART I
WHO MUST COMPLETE THIS FORM?
Form WM Part I, describing efforts undertaken to implement waste minimization programs, must
be completed by all generators required to file an Annual/Biennial Report. This requirement was
established in response to statutory provisions included in the Hazardous and Solid Waste
Amendments of 1984 (HSWA). Note that generators shipping hazardous waste off site are
required to certify, on Item 16 of the Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest, that they have a
program in place to reduce, to the degree determined economically practicable, the volume and
toxicity of hazardous waste generated. A similar certification must also be made by generators
who have obtained a RCRA treatment, storage, or disposal permit. Consistent with these
certification requirements, generators must report, on Form WM Part I, the efforts undertaken to
implement waste minimization programs.
Generators required to file an Annual/Biennial Report are those that met or exceeded, in 1987,
the minimum quantity reporting requirements listed on page 4.
HOW TO COMPLETE THIS FORM
Form WM Part I consists of ten questions about efforts undertaken to implement hazardous waste
minimization programs. Answer all ten questions. Use the Comments section at the end of the
form to clarify or continue any entry. Reference the comment by entering the question number.
Key terms are defined below.
Waste minimization means the reduction, to the extent feasible, of hazardous waste that is
generated or subsequently treated, stored, or disposed. Waste
minimization includes any source reduction or recycling activity undertaken
by a generator that results in: (1) the reduction of total volume or quantity
of hazardous waste; (2) the reduction of toxicity of hazardous waste; or (3)
both, as long as the reduction is consistent with the goal of minimizing
present and future threats to human health and the environment.
Source reduction
Recycling
means the reduction or elimination of waste at the source, usually within a
process. Source reduction measures include process modifications,
feedstock substitutions, improvements in feedstock purity, housekeeping
and management practices, increases in the efficiency of machinery, and
recycling within a process. Source reduction implies any action that reduces
the amount of waste exiting a process.
means the use or reuse of a waste as an effective substitute for a
commercial product, or as an ingredient or feedstock in an industrial
process. It also refers to the reclamation of useful constituent fractions
within a waste material or removal of contaminants from a waste to allow it
to be reused. As used in this report, recycling implies use, reuse, or
reclamation of a waste, either on site or off site, after it has been generated.

Closed loop (in process) recycling is considered source reduction and should not be
reported in Box E. If one code adequately describes the recycling activity, leave
blank the field marked "code 2."

2. In the field labeled "Quantity Recycled", enter the quantity of the hazardous waste
which was recycled during 1987. Include both on-site and off-site recycling quantities
in this number. Report the quantity in the unit of measure reported in Section I, Box
F. If no hazardous waste was recycled on site or off site enter "NA."
Quantity information may be obtained from Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest
Forms if the waste was shipped off site for recycling. If more than one shipment of
the waste was shipped off site for recycling, add the quantities and report only the
sum. If the waste was recycled on site, use your own records to determine the
quantity recycled. If no records of the exact quantity recycled are available, estimate
the quantity and report the method you used in the Comments section at the end of
the form. Reference the comment by noting the section number and box letter.
Box F: Waste Minimization: Source Reduction
Box F requires several entries. Follow the instructions in sequence.
1. Review the Source Reduction Activity Codes below and enter the codes that best
describe source reduction activities applied to the hazardous Waste Generation,
Shipment and Management Reported in Section I. In this report, source reduction
means the reduction or elimination of waste at the source, usually within a process.
Source reduction measures' include process modifications, feedstock substitutions,
improvements in feedstock purity, housekeeping and management practices,
increases in the efficiency of machinery, and recycling within a process. Source
reduction implies any action that reduces the amount of waste exiting a process.
Therefore, closed loop (in process) recycling should be reported in Box F. If one
code adequately describes the source reduction activity, leave blank the fields
marked "code 2" and "code 3".
Code Source Reduction Activity
0 No source reduction undertaken
1 Equipment or technology modification/substitution
2 Process or procedure modification/substitution (including closed-
loop recycling)
3 Reformulation or redesign of product
4 Modification/substitution of input or raw material
5 Better housekeeping/better operating practices
6 Waste stream segregation
7 Other source reduction activity, .(Specify in Comments)

Section II (Continued)
2. In the field labeled "Quantity Prevented," enter the 1987 quantity of hazardous waste
which was never generated because of source reduction activity. Report the quantity
in the unit of measure reported in Section I Box F.
If you have completed Section II, Boxes A, B, and C, you can calculate "Quantity
Prevented" using EPA's preferred method outlined on the worksheet on page 38.
If you do not know the information requested in Section II, Boxes A, B, and C, you
may estimate the quantity of hazardous waste prevented in 1987 using another
method. Review the five examples that follow to consider which approach your site
might utilize. However, if you do not use the preferred method, you must describe
your computation in the Comments section at the end of the form. Reference the
comment by entering the section number and box letter. A blank Quantity

Example 1:
A firm manufactures tools using a process which generates hazardous waste. In
1986, 1,000 tools were produced and in 1987, 1,200 tools were produced. The
production ratio for the firm is 1.2. In 1987, the firm introduced a new process
to minimize the quantity of hazardous waste it generated.
(1987 production) 12QQ = L2 (production ratio)

Example 2:
This example illustrates how the firm in Example 1 would have completed
Section II if the production had increased.
A firm manufactures tools using a process which generates hazardous waste. In
1986 the firm produced 1,000 tools; in 1987, the firm produced 5,000 tools. The
production ratio for the firm is 5.0. The production ratio is an indicator of
growth or decline in product produced. In 1987, the firm, anticipating continued
rapid growth and wishing to reduce costs for waste management, introduced a
new process to minimize the quantity of hazardous waste it generated. To
complete form WM Part II, the firm calculated its waste minimization results as
follows.
(1987 production) 1QQQ = 5.0 (production ratio)
(1986 production) 1,000 ^ '

Section II (Continued)
Example 3:
A firm uses a solvent bath to clean continuous filament wire in a batch process.
Since the firm has no record of how much wire passes through the bath before
the solvent is changed, the production ratio is "NA". The firm does have a
record of the number of times the solvent is changed in the year. To reduce the
amount of waste exiting the process, in 1987 the firm replaced the original bath
container with a new container that holds 20 gallons less solvent per changing.
The quantity of waste generated from the solvent bath in 1986, before the
container was replaced, was 2,000 gallons. Note that this number was known
through a recordkeeping system that tracked waste generation by process.
The number of times the bath was changed was 10, or 200 gallons per changing.
This number was known through the firm's recordkeeping system.
Using the new container, changing the bath 10 times in 1987, the firm generated
only 180 gallons of waste per changing. Thus, the total quantity of waste
generated from the solvent bath in 1987, was 1,800 gallons. (Box A minus Box B
quantities)
By replacing the bath container the firm prevented 200 gallons of hazardous
waste from bang generated. (Entered in Box F, quantity prevented)

Example 4:
This example illustrates how the firm in Example 3 above would complete
Section II if the production had increased.
A firm uses a solvent bath to clean continuous filament wire in a batch process.
Since the firm has no record of how much wire passes through the bath before
the solvent is changed, it cannot compute a production ratio as required in Box
C. The firm does have a record of the size of the solvent bath container and
number of times the solvent is changed in a year. In 1986, the container held 200
gallons and the solvent bath was changed 10 times.
In 1987, the firm's production of wire increased in response to an aggressive sales
campaign. The firm was interested in reducing the costs of waste management
and purchased a new solvent bath container 20 gallons smaller but still adequate.
Nevertheless, because of increased production, the solvent had to be changed 20
times per year.
To compute the "Quantity prevented" entry on the form, the firm estimated the
amount of solvent waste that would have been generated using the original
container (200 gal.) with the increased number of changes (20). The firm then
subtracted from this number the actual amount of solvent waste generated.
200 gal. x 20 changes = 4,000 gal. minus Box B, 3,600
Enter 400 in Box F, Quantity generated

WASTE MINIMIZATION
PART II
WHO MUST COMPLETE THIS FORM? Form WM Part II must be completed only by generators that engaged in an activity dunng 1987 that
resulted in waste minimization.
Waste minimization means:
(1) reduction in the volume and/or toxictty of hazardous waste generated as a result of source
reduction; and/or,
(2) reduction In the volume and/or toxictty of hazardous waste subsequently treated, stored, or
disposed as a result of on-stte or off-site recycling.
II Mark B and do not complete this form If no waste minimization results were achieved during 1987
INSTRUCTIONS: Please read the detailed instructions beginning on page 26 of the 1987 Hazardous Waste
Generation and Shipment Report Instructions booklet before completing this form.
Make and complete a photocopy of this form for each hazardous waste minimized in 1987
