forms of recycling.  It is not limited to hazardous wastes or chemicals subject to TRI, but
encompasses any hazardous substance, pollutant or contaminant.
WR-same as waste minimization
WMIN-activities that minimize the generation of wastes which subsequently require
treatment and disposal. Waste Minimization includes source reduction and/or specific types
of recycling measures that result in a reduction in the total tpxicity of hazardous waste as
long as the reduction is consistent with the goal of minimizing present and future threats to
human health and the environment
SR-any practice that reduces the amount of hazardous substance, pollutant or contaminant
entering any waste stream or otherwise released to the environment (including fugitive
emissions) prior to recycling, treatment, or disposal; and reduces hazards to public health
and the environment associated with the release of such substances, pollutants, or
contaminants. (Good housekeeping, input substitutions, process redesign, inventory
control, etc..).
RECYCLING-The collection, separation and recovery of useful materials which cannot be
directly reused or would otherwise be discarded as waste.

HIERARCHY:
Recently enacted solid waste legislation sets out the preferred hierarchy as;
1. Source reduction
2. Recycling and reuse
3. Waste to energy
4. Incineration

NATIONAL ROUNDTABLB OF STATE POLLUTION PREVENTION PROGRAMS                              4/1/92
FUTURE ACTIVITIES:
The regulatory program is being expanded to multi-media by requiring larger emitters and
dischargers of toxic substances to undertake planning and implement toxic release reduction
programs as part of permitting requirements. Also enforcement settlements are requiring
pollution prevention activities. In addition, integrated permitting is being required. The
overall pollution prevention effort will be incorporated into Best Management practices and
fugitive reduction programs.

DEFINITIONS:
P2-reduction in volume of solid waste, reduction in volume and/or toxicity of hazardous
waste and/or toxic substances, including source reduction and recycling.
WR-reduction in volume of solid waste, reduction in volume and/or toxicity of hazardous
waste, including source reduction and recycling, directed at solid waste media.
WMIN-same as waste reduction except that treatment to reduce or detoxify generated waste
is included under waste minimization.
SR-in-plant practices to reduce, avoid or eliminate the generation of waste, including input
substitution, technology modification, good housekeeping practices and product
reformulation.
RECYCLING-direct use or reuse (not closed loop) of waste material in a process or
reclamation by recovering secondary materials for separate end use or by removing
impurities so that waste may be reused.


Our program has the following preferred hierarchy for managing hazardous and solid
waste as contained in Sections 27-0105 and 27-0106 of the Environmental Conservation
Law respectively.
   • Hazardous Waste (Section 27-0105)
       1)  Source Reduction
       2)  Waste Reduction
       3)  Waste Minimization
   • Solid Waste (Section 27-0106)
       1)  Source Reduction
       2)  Recycling

AUDIENCE/CLIENTS:
Local governments and private industries including regulated community, SQGs, LQGs,
and TRI reporters. The regulatory program is directed at approximately 600 facilities that
are responsible for generating over 95% of hazardous wastes and toxic substance
emissions and discharges to air and water. The technical assistance program is directed at
over 25,000 smaller facilities. At 26 vehicle maintenance workshops held in late 1989
through mid 1990, over 1500 individuals attended.

ENABLING LEGISLATION:
• Environmental Conservation Law (ECL) Section 27-0908; Hazardous Waste Reduction
   Plans.
• ECL Section 27-0105; Preferred statewide hazardous waste management practices
   hierarchy.
• ECL Section 27-0106; State solid waste management policy.
• ECL Sections 19-0301 and  17-0303; Provide authority to impose pollution prevention
   requirements on toxic substance dischargers and emitters.

BUDGET:
$4 million

SOURCES OF THE BUDGET:
New York State General Fund and federal grants. The general fund provides over 90% of
the funding.

PROJECTED BUDGET:
$4 million

EFFECTIVENESS:
The success is measured by evaluating progress of waste reduction efforts as explained in
individual facility annual reports and in waste reduction plans. Also, the response to
workshops offered is used as an indicator of success. The following explains how the
current program developed based on evaluation of statutory and regulatory tools needed to
further waste reduction

The program began in the early 1980s by providing on-site technical assistance to manage
hazardous and solid wastes. In 1987 and 1988 preferred waste management practices (i.e.,
hierarchies) were established for hazardous and solid wastes respectively. Further, in
1988, the Solid Waste Management Act provided authority and funding to create and
implement solid waste reduction and recycling programs. Also, in 1988 based on the
hazardous waste hierarchy law (ECL 27-0105), the Department required RCRA permitted
facilities to develop and implement comprehensive hazardous waste reduction programs.
In 1989, this effort was expanded to initiate a pilot multi-media pollution prevention
program. In 1990, a statute requiring hazardous waste reduction planning passed which
require about 600 large quantity generators responsible for generating over 94% of the
hazardous waste generated to develop programs for implementing comprehensive waste
reduction measures. These programs are reviewed by die Department and can be rejected,
if the programs are deficient. Any facility that  does not develop an acceptable program
cannot make waste reduction certifications on manifests and as part of its operating record
(TSDs). In 1991, comprehensive multi-media pollution prevention regulations are being
developed to require approvable pollution prevention programs as part of permitting
programs based on thresholds of toxic substance releases as reported pursuant to Section
313 of SARA.

   • A general pollution prevention slide presentation

Program is working with public development programs to incorporate pollution prevention
information into their funding approval criteria.
Also working with local POTWs to incorporate pollution prevention into routine
inspections.

FUTURE ACTTyiTIES:
Along with continuing the above mentioned activities, planning has begun for industry
specific work sessions to train industry and facilitate information sharing within industry.

DEFINITIONS:
P2- The use of materials, processes and practices to eliminate the generation of pollution
discharges.
WR- Net reduction of the amount of waste disposed of, includes marketing wastes as raw
materials for other industries.
WMIN- Similar to waste reduction. Theoretically, minimization is ultimately achieved
when a facility has implemented every economically feasible technique to reduce waste
disposal.
SR-  Similar to pollution prevention.  Material changes, process changes and institution of
management practices implemented at the source of generation to reduce the waste stream
produced.
RECYCLING-  Reuse of waste products as raw materials. May involve on-site treatment
(i.e. distillation,  neutralization, etc.)

FAX:        (412) 826-5552

MISSION:
CHMR's mission is to motivate, educate and support industry and government in the
exploration and development of the pollution prevention concept and pollution prevention
techniques as practical solutions to the many technical, environmental, public health,
economic, institutional, and public policy problems associated with the use and disposal of
hazardous waste and materials in society.  The program exists as a non-regulatory link
between industry and governments in the pursuit of economically efficient and
environmentally sound methods of altering management and engineering practices and
processes to incorporate pollution prevention thinking.

In fulfilling this mission, CHMR makes its services available to business and government,
but focuses on helping small to medium sized organizations which do not have the benefit
of dedicated environmental staffs.

FUNCTION:
CHMR's pollution prevention program is a component of its overall comprehensive, non-
regulatory education and assistance program. Through this program CHMR provides
technical, regulatory compliance information, financial and management assistance and
educational service to business, governments and individuals. The technical assistance
program incorporates pollution prevention into all aspects of its operation.

CHMR, a non-regulatory organization, is a not-for-profit subsidiary of the University of
Pittsburgh Trust.

NAME:      Project ROSE (Recycled Oil Saves Energy)

ADDRESS:   The University of Alabama
             P.O. Box 870203
             Tuscaloosa, AL 35487-0203

PHONE:     (205) 348-4878

FAX:        (205) 348-8573

MISSION:
Project ROSE is an Alabama energy saving program designed to educate Do-It-Yourselfers
(DIYs) regarding the energy saved by recycling used motor oil and promotes and
encourages proper management of this large, but widely dispersed waste stream.
Recycling used oil also offers individuals the opportunity to protect and preserve our
environment and dwindling supply of natural resources.

FUNCTION:
Project ROSE functions at two levels:
1) At the individual level (DIYs), ROSE provides education, public awareness programs,
local recycling program development, and other promotions designed to raise community
awareness of recycling alternatives and community environmental responsibility.
2) ROSE also works with used oil generators, large and small, to provide regulatory
information, technical assistance, education, waste exchange options and information
concerning new techniques that improve waste management practices.

Project ROSE is also active at the regulatory and legislative levels to the extent that it
provides information regarding the used oil management system in relation to pending or
proposed regulations or legislation.

PRESENT ACTTVrnES:
ROSE provides technical assistance, education, legislative interaction, an information
clearinghouse and a waste exchange.

TOOLS:
• ROSE uses low-cost, public media (radio, television, newspapers), newsletters, two toll-
   free instate telephone hotlines, seminars, workshops and conferences to reach the
   individual users. In addition, ROSE enlists community leaders, service organizations,
   and support groups to voluntarily promote the program.
• ROSE uses many of the tools listed above to contact business which make up the used oil
   management system in Alabama (SQGs & LQGs) in an effort to increase their
   awareness of regulatory initiatives that may impact various levels of the system.
• Project ROSE Used Oil Waste Information Exchange.
• ROSE works with other waste exchanges to recycle materials other than used oil.

FUTURE ACnvmES:
ROSE plans to expand its services to DIYs through Alabama Cooperative Extension
Agencies, and expand oil recycling services  to other structures that offer convenient
recycling options.

NATIONAL ROUNDTABLE OF STATE POLLUTION PREVENTION PROGRAMS                              4/1/92
DEFINITIONS:
P2- the protection of human health and the environment through the reduction of pollutants
at the source and through environmentally sound recycling.
WR- the prevention of pollution through the multi-media (air, land, and water) reduction
of pollutants at the source and through environmentally sound recycling.
WMIN- the reduction, to the extent feasible, of hazardous waste that is generated or
subsequently treated, stored, or disposed.  It includes any source reduction or recycling
activity undertaken by a generator that results in either (a) the reduction of total volume of
quantity of hazardous waste, or (2) the reduction of toxicity of hazardous waste, or both,
so long as the reduction is consistent with the goal of minimizing present and future threats
to human health and the environment
SR-  the reduction or elimination of waste generation at the source, usually within a
process. Source reduction measures include process modifications, feedstock substitutions
or improvements in feedstock purity, various housekeeping and management practices,
increases in the efficiency of machinery and even recycling within a process. Source
reduction implies any action that reduces the amount of waste exiting from a process.
RECYCLING- 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.  Recycling implies use, reuse or
reclamation of a waste, either on-site, or off-site, after it is generated by a particular
process.

HIERARCHY:
1) Source reduction- waste is not produced.
2) Recycling- waste is converted to a usable product.
3) Treatment- waste is made less harmful.
4) Disposal- the option of last resort

AUDIENCE/CLIENTS:
Large and small quantity generators

   the concept of a waste exchange.
• WRAMP sent a survey questionnaire to about 900 companies to determine what wastes
   are perceived as being problems as well as volumes of hazardous and non-hazardous
   wastes generated.
• In conjunction and with the Industrial Advisory Board, WRAMP will identify model
   companies who have achieved great strides in waste management and publicize their
   successes.

MISSION:
Ohio EPA's Pollution Prevention Section's goal is to establish and implement a pollution
prevention philosophy at the Agency, and to extend this philosophy to the regulated
community and Ohio's citizens.  While Ohio EPA has been involved in several waste
minimization areas since the early 1980's, this Section will coordinate pollution prevention
activities throughout the Agency and with other Ohio agencies, including the Ohio
Technology Transfer Organization and the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, and
federal agencies. The Section will help integrate the pollution prevention concept into
Agency policy and regulations.

FUNCTION:
The Ohio EPA Pollution Prevention Section is composed of three units, which will cover
technical assistance, program development and coordination, and technology assessment
and information analysis. The Section is or expects to be involved in technical assistance,
policy and planning, legislative developments, education of Agency staff and waste
generators, waste exchange and data analysis.

DEFINITIONS:
P2- The use of source reduction techniques in order to reduce risk to public health, safety,
welfare and the environment and, as a second preference, the use of environmentally sound
recycling to achieve these same goals. Pollution prevention includes waste minimization,
avoids cross-media in scope, addressing all types of waste and environmental releases to
the air, water and land. Examples which do not constitute pollution prevention may
include, but shall not be limited to the following:
       1) sending waste or toxic chemicals off-site for management other than
          environmentally sound recycling;
       2) incineration or other thermal treatment;
       3) treatment to reduce volume;
       4) treatment to reduce toxicity;
       5) bankruptcy or reduction in production volume;
       6) installation of a filter press to reduce water content and volume;
       7) installation of equipment to comply with pollution control regulations;
       8) delisting of a hazardous waste or toxic chemical; or
       9) energy recovery, which includes burning in boilers.

WR-  Defined in the "State Solid Waste Management Plan," but not by the Pollution
Prevention Section. The "State Solid Waste Management Plan" defines waste reduction as:
  Includes waste minimization activities that decrease the initial production of waste
  material at their point of origin, and reduction activities that reduce the volume of waste
  materials requiring disposal, such as incineration.
  The Pollution Prevention Section does noiexpect to use this definition, since we expect
  the Ohio EPA not to include activities such as incineration or waste-as-fuel in the
  definition of pollution prevention. The definition of "source reduction" is the closest to
  what most states use for waste reduction.
WMIN- Any effort to reduce or recycle the quantity of hazardous waste generated, and
where feasible,  to reduce or eliminate toxicity. Treatment of hazardous waste is not waste
minimization, unless such treatment is part of a recycling process.
SR- Any effort to reduce, at the  source, the quantity of industrial waste generation, toxic
chemical use  or any release into the environment, through changes if the waste  generating
or other production process. Source reduction measures include, but are  not limited to,
process modifications, feedstock purity, good operating and management practices,
increases in the efficiency of machinery, and recycling within a waste generating or other
production process.
RECYCLING- (pn-site, closed-loop, etc.) - To use, reuse or reclaim a material. Recycling
does not include incineration or other treatment
"Reuse" means  reutilization of a material in an environmentally sound manner that will not
result in a hazard to human health of the environment A material is reused if it is either:
       1) Employed as an ingredient, including use as an intermediate in an industrial
          process to make a product A material will not satisfy this condition of distinct
          components of the material are recovered as separate end products; or

-------
NATIONAL KOUNDTABLE OF STATE POLLUTION PREVENTION PROGRAMS                              4/1/92
      2) Used in a particular function or application as an effective substitute for a
          commercial product.
"Reclaim" means to regenerate a material, or to process or recover a usable product from a
material.
Except as noted, the above definitions are from the Ohio Administrative Code 3745-50 and
51, and the "Ohio Pollution Prevention bill" drafted by the Pollution Prevention Section
and introduced as H.B. 960 in the 1989-1990 118th Ohio General Assembly, Regular
Session.

HIERARCHY: The hierarchy listed below is that from the proposed "Ohio Pollution
Prevention bill" mentioned above:
1. Source reduction of industrial waste and hazardous waste, and reduction in the use and
release of toxic chemicals.
2. On-site recycling of industrial waste, hazardous waste and toxic chemicals.
3. Off-site recycling
4. Treatment of industrial waste, hazardous waste and toxic chemicals.
5. Industrial waste, hazardous waste and toxic chemicals shall be disposed of in an
environmentally sound manner.

NATIONAL KOUNDTABLE OF STATE POLLUTION PREVENTION PROGRAMS                              4/1/92
DEFINITIONS:
P2- the strategy for reducing the amount of pollutants which enter the environment This
includes, but is not limited to, toxic use substitutions, product reformulations, waste
minimization techniques, recycling and reuse of materials.
WR-This involves reduction or reuse of materials after the end-of-pipe generation,
Includes recycling of materials and waste volume reducers such as sludge filter presses or
evaporators.
WMIN- same as waste reduction.
SR- primarily toxic use substitution, product reformulations or phase-outs- strategies to
reduce the amount of waste generated at the source.
RECYCLING- the beneficial reuse of waste materials either closed loop (ie., directed
directly back into a process line) or recovery of some component through on-site recycling
processes (distillation units, etc.)or through delivery of wastes off-site (ie.,metals
reclamation). The state definition also includes fuels blend and burning for energy
recovery as recycling processes.  The waste component must have a useful purpose or add
to the efficiency of the product in order to be considered legitimate recycling.

HIERARCHY:
No specific hierarchy is intrinsic in the program or defined by statute, rule or policy.

AUDIENCE/CLIENTS:
The program's focus to-date has been the regulated RCRA community, specifically LQGs
of moderate size. The emphasis has been hazardous waste because the disposal costs
provide strong incentive for the implementation of pollution prevention strategies, the
economics of solid waste disposal or disposal through POTWs or air do not, in our
experience, provide sufficient motivation.  Our focus on medium-sized facilities is because
larger corporations generally have staff and some type of program to review their
environmental policies. SQGs receive some attention, however, they most typically need
regulatory advisement or advice on more economical waste management techniques.

ENABLING LEGISLATION:
None

ADMINISTRATIVE BASE:
State Department of Health- the regulatory agency.

BUDGET:
$133,333/yr

SOURCES OF THE BUDGET:
A three-year, $300,000 grant from USEPA
$33,333 /yr provided primarily by hazardous waste disposal fees

PROJECTED BUDGET:
Same as FY1991.

EFFECTIVENESS:
Effectiveness will be judged primarily  by meeting our commitments, ie., number of
facilities receiving on-site assistance and through providing annual seminar. Additionally,
follow-up on facilities will be completed to assess effectiveness of our on-site visits and
survey the perceived value of the program. Other successes are considered to be increased
contacts with industry via phone calls or mail-outs as well as positive feedback from the
industrial community.

DEFIMTIONS:
P2- EPA's interpretation
WR- In the Iowa law it "means practices which reduce, avoid, or eliminate both the
generation of solid waste and the use of toxic materials so as to reduce risks to health and
the environment and to avoid, reduce or eliminate the generation of wastes or
environmental pollution at the source and not merely achieved by shifting a waste output or
waste stream from one environmental medium to another environmental medium." In
practice, WRAP includes reduced energy consumption as a form of waste reduction.
WMIN- Follow EPA's definition of waste minimization through source reduction or
recycling of any hazardous waste.
SR- Includes methods employed by residents, business and industry that prevent waste
from entering the waste stream.  Source reduction includes, but is no limited to such
practices as backyard composting of yard waste, reduced product packaging, and changes
in manufacturing systems.  For hazardous wastes, source reduction does not include on-
site recycling.
RECYCLING- In Iowa law "means any process by which waste, or materials which
would otherwise become waste, are collected, separated, or processed and revised or
returned to use in the form of raw materials or products." Recycling does not include any
form of energy recovery. Iowa law established on-site recycling as a priority over off-site
recycling for hazardous wastes.

DEFINITIONS:
P2- EPA's interpretation
WR- In the Iowa law it "means practices which reduce, avoid, or eliminate both the
generation of solid waste and the use of toxic materials  so as to reduce risks to health and
the environment and to avoid, reduce or eliminate the generation of wastes or
environmental pollution at the source and not merely achieved by shifting a waste output or
waste stream from one environmental medium to another environmental medium." In
practice, WRAP includes reduced energy consumption  as a form of waste reduction.
WMIN- Follow EPA's definition of waste minimization through source reduction or
recycling of any hazardous waste.
SR- Includes methods employed by residents, business and industry that prevent waste
from entering the waste stream. Source reduction includes, but is no limited to such
practices as backyard composting of yard waste, reduced product packaging, and changes
in manufacturing systems.   For hazardous wastes, source reduction does not include on-
site recycling.
RECYCLING- In Iowa law "means any process by which waste, or materials which
would otherwise become waste, are collected, separated, or processed and revised or
returned to use in the form of raw materials or products." Recycling does not include any
form of energy recovery. Iowa law established on-site recycling as a priority over off-site
recycling for hazardous wastes.

MISSION:
Presently there is not a discrete pollution prevention program in Missouri and therefore
there is no mission statement Pollution prevention activities occur both within the
Department of Natural Resources' Waste Management Program and Environmental
Improvement and Energy Resources Authority.  Each activity has its own different
emphasis. The overall goal of these efforts is the implementation of pollution prevention
through source reduction, reuse and recycling.

FUNCTION:
The DNR is primarily a regulatory agency. However, since there is no regulatory structure
for pollution prevention/waste reduction, the department's activities in these areas focus on
policy and planning, technical assistance, and education. If proposed legislation (HB 655,
SB 422) is enacted, the WMP would be expected to also take on regulatory duties in the
area of waste reduction. The EIERA in non-regulatory and has provided pollution
prevention workshops, acted as a technical assistance clearinghouse and operated a waste
exchange service in cooperation with the Industrial Materials Exchange Service.

DEFINITIONS:
P2- Not defined.
WR- (as defined in proposed legislation) "to lessen or decrease the amount of hazardous
waste encompassing waste reduction, recycling, reuse, treatment, reclassification of waste,
and dewatering, the elimination of waste at the source, usually within a process, including
process modifications, feedstock substitutions, improvements in feedstock purity,
housekeeping and management practices, increases in efficiency of machinery and on-site,
closed-loop recycling, or any action that reduces the amount and toxicity of the waste
exiting the production process."
WMIN- The same as waste reduction.
SR- Not defined.
RECYCLING- (also defined in proposed legislation) "to utilize a portion of a waste stream
through chemical mechanical, thermal, or electromagnetic treatment to regain its valuable
components and thereby decreasing the volume, toxicity, or both."

HIERARCHY:
1) Prevent and divert waste production at the source.
2) Reduce waste production at the source.
3) Reuse of the waste as a feedstock or raw material.
4) Recycle and recover on-site, or if that is not feasible, off-site.
5) Treat waste to reduce volume and toxicity, including incineration.
6) Store waste.
7) Dispose of waste.

AUDIENCE/CLIENTS:
The activities of the DNR are to benefit all the citizens of the state and assistance is
provided, to the best of pur ability, to all persons requesting it.  Specific pollution
prevention/waste reduction activities have been or will be conducted targeting household
hazardous waste, SQGs, and LQGs. The program established under the EPA PPIS grant
targets pollution prevention in the agrichemicaJ industry.

EFFECTIVENESS:
The various pollution prevention activities occurring within the state are each evaluated
individually based on that particular activity's goals. For example, the demonstration
project proposed as part of the PPIS grant activities will be evaluated by qualifying any
reduction in releases and/or potential releases. The audience to which this information is
communicated also varies depending on the activity. The effectiveness of activities
associated with the PPIS grant must be communicated to EPA. The Effectiveness of any
Department of Natural Resources activity needs to be communicated to department
administration, the state legislature, the administration of the state and the citizens.

PUBLICATIONS:
The DNR has developed a Waste Minimization Strategy Development Pap[er as part of its
10-year hazardous waste capacity assurance plan. This is a comprehensive plan whicch
sets goals and objectives, necessary components of a state waste minimization program,
implementation plan, tracking methodology and industry/SIC specific waste minimization
techniques.
A full color poster entitled "Make Your Home a Safe Place" was developed as part of the
household hazardous waste collection program.

FUTURE ACTIVITIES:
• Develop and Office of Pollution Prevention
• Put on a series of "Roundtable" workshops for state agency personnel

DEFINITIONS:
P2-to preventi the formation of hazardous waste, industrial waste, or hazardous air
constituents. Pollution prevention is a comprehensive and multimedia approach to
environmental management
WR-source reduction, onsite and offsite recycling, and treatment. This term was adopted
to describe the Department's objective in the 1980's to reduce the amount of untreated
waste going to land disposal. It is an obsolete term.
WMIN-source reduction and recycling (onsite and offsite).
SR-any activity that prevents the generation of hazardous waste. This can include
generating a less hazardous species. It does not mean reducint the volume or toxicity or an
already generated waste.  Source reduction can be achieved through:
    a) Input changes: changes in raw materials or feedstocks used in a production  process
or operation so as to reduce, avoid, or eliminate the generation of   hazardous waste.
    b) Operational improvements: improved site management so as to reduce, avoid or
    eliminate the generation of hazardousw waste.  This includes administrative steps
    such as inventory control, employee training or establishing waste minimization
    policies.
    c) Production process changes:  using more efficient equipment or changing
    operating conditions in order to reduce hazardous waste generation.
    d) Product reformulation: changing a process, method, or technique which is used
    to produce a product or desired result, including the return of materials or their
    components, for reuse within the existing process or operations,  so as to reduce,
    avoid, or eliminate the generation of hazardous waste.
RECYCLING-use, reuse, or reclamation of hazardous constituents.  Recycling is
secondary in the waste management hierarchy because the hazardous waste is generated,
thus representing some hazard to the environment if mismanaged.
    a) Use: to directly use a hazardous waste in a different process.  It does snot   require
that the hazardous waste processed before use.
    b) Reuse:  to directly reuse a hazardous waste in the same process (in-process
    recycling). Reuse also does not require processing.
    c) Reclamation:  When a hazardous waste requires processing before reuse, it is
    known as reclamation.  Neutralization, filtration, and distillation are examples of
    processes used to reclaim constituents of hazardous wastes.

       Many of these processes are actually treatment processes, with the major differenc e
       being that the relaaimanns reused in a process. There are permitting requirements
       for some reclamation processes. Reclaiming "energy" of "heat" is not considered to
       be recycling by the Department.

       Recycling and other waste management techniques always involve some risk of
       failure. When recycling fails, the waste most often has to be disposed of as
       hazardous waste.

HIERARCHY:
ATD's preferred hierarchy is to practice polluiton prevention then waste minimization.
ATD also believes that "Environmentally sound" treatment is a viable option after all other
pollution prevention options have been explored and implemented.

MISSION:
No specific mission/vision statement for current program. The general direction is to have
pollution prevention be considered in all aspects of industrial wastewater regulation and
pretreatment.

FUNCTION:
Education and information transfer for current program.

PRESENT ACTIVITIES:
• Staff reorientation from pretreatment to prevention.
• Incorporation of pollution prevention awareness and language into the pretreatment
   regulatory system.
• Information outreach to regulated industries to provide "Best Available Information" on
   pollution prevention.

TOOLS:
• Training (staff)
• Education (the incorporation of pollution prevention language and outreach materials with
   regulatory correspondence and new reporting requests.  For example, in the
   notification letter to industrial laundries for the new dischare liminations, pollution
   prevention was urged to be used for compliance, and n the submittal request for
   Toxic Organics Management Plans from the metal finishing industries, a pollution
   prevention outreach fact sheet was included to encourage the permittees to consider
   prevention for the Management Plan).
• Opportunities checklists (emphasis on industries of concern to POTWs that discharge to
   the sewer).

FUTURE ACTIVITIES:
This agency is a local sanitation agency responsible for sewage treatment and refuse
disposal for approximately half the population in Los Angeles County. Eventually, the
pollution prevention program will include an agency policy which will expand the program
to include all agency operations including the POTWs and landfills. Currently, the
program focusses on ihe regulated industris that discharge to our POTWs and it is being
redeveloped to include;
• Technical assistance (voluntary source reduction waste audits)
• Training (staff)
• Regulatory integration

NATIONAL ROUNDTABLE OF STATE POLLUTION PREVENTION PROGRAMS                              4/1/92
DEFINITIONS:
P2-the new environmental philosophy (paradigm) advocating source reduction and
resource conservation in industrial facilities. Pollution prevention stresses multi-media
toxics elimination.
WR-the volume reduction of hazardous waste through waste minimization, treatment,
incineration, etc.
WMIN-minimizing the generation of hazardous waste through source reduction, on-site
recycling, or off-site recycling of industrial by-products and hazardous materials usage.
SR-techniques and technologies that reduce the source of pollution by chemical substitution
or reformulation, industrial process modification, improved efficiency and management
practices, etc.
RECYCLING-the beneficial reuse or reclamation of hazardous industrial by-products.
Closed-loop recycling puts the by-product directly back into the process that generated the
waste; on-site recycling recycles the material within the industrial facility; off-site recycling
involves transporting material to a recycling facility.

NATIONAL KOVNDTABLE OF HATE POLLUTION PREVENTION PROGRAMS                              4/1/J2
NAME:      Pollution and Hazardous  Waste  Reduction Program

ADDRESS:   Bay Area Air Quality Management District
             TAG Evaluation Section
             939 Ellis St.
             San Francisco, CA 94109

PHONE:     (415)771-6000  ext. 4671

FAX:        (415)928-8560

MISSION:
The Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) proposes to design and
implement a program to assist the facilities under its regulatory control to minimize toxic air
pollutants. Although this program is in the conceptual stage at this point, it is anticipated
that the program will consist of a combination of measures such as those listed in #2
below.

FUNCTION:
The main activity of the BAAQMD is the promulgation and enforcement of regulations
pertaining to air pollution control. As such, it is anticipated that the primary methods of
encouraging pollution reduction will be regulatory in scope, possibly providing economic
incentives for decreases in the use of toxic substances. Secondary functions may include
providing basic technical assistance, providing waste reduction information and
coordinating with other governmental and industry agencies to ensure effective waste
reduction programs and minimization of cross-media pollution problems.

PRESENT ACnvrnES:
The BAAQMD's program involves the construction of a pollutant inventory for the District,
and a mechanism for tracking the reduction in use of identified toxic and hazardous
materials.  The inventory is in the pubb'c domain, and the BAAQMD believes that public
access to this information will provide a strong incentive for facilities to voluntarily engage
in pollution prevention. Specifically, the Toxic  New Source Review rule is designed to
prevent new sources from exacerbating existing air pollution problems. High-risk facilities
must submit risk reduction plans.

TOOLS:
Possible tools include;
• Regulatory incentives
• Economic incentives
• Site visits
• Information clearinghouse
• Assistance with coordinating with other governmental programs

FUTURE ACTIVITIES:
Continue present activities

-------
NATIONAL ROUNDTABLE OF STATE POLLUTION PREVENTION PROGRAMS                              4/1/92
DEFINITIONS:
P2-NA
WR-the reduction of primary hazardous waste materials by use of component material
substitution, product reformulation, waste recycling mechanisms (both on-site and off-
site), and waste stream treatment facilities (both pn-site and off-site).
WMIN-same as waste reduction, except it is limited to primary source stream reduction,
and recycling
SR-the reduction of primary waste streams from a facility by a change in technology, a
change in product or product specifications, a change in materials used, or a change in
operating procedures. Treatment and recycling mechanisms are specifically excluded.
RECYCLING-the collection for treatment and reuse of a given waste product Collection
for later disposal in a landfill or other disposal facility is specifically excluded. Recycling
can be either at the facility site for reuse in the facility itself, or the waste products can be
collected and transported off-site for treatment and reuse either in the producing facility or
elsewhere

HIERARCHY:
The BAAQMD prefers the hierarchy adopted by the State of California in SB 14, the
Hazardous Waste Source Reduction  and Management Review Act of 1989.  This Act
categorizes hazardous waste management according to the following hierarchy:
    1. Source Reduction
   2. Recycling
   3. Treatment
   4. Disposal

AUDIENCE/CLIENTS:
The BAAQMD's target audience is the apporximately 3000 stationary facilities and 3000
gasoline service stations which can produce waste streams capable of contribution to local
air pollution. (Most facilities fall into the SQG category.)

ENABLING LEGISLATION:
As the program is still in its conceptual stage, the BAAQMD does not have specific
enabling legislation for a waste reduction program. General enabling legislation for such a
program can be sound in the State of California Health and Safety Code, Section 91700
(referring to threats to public health).

ADMINISTRATIVE BASE:
The BAAQMD is a regional governmental agency covering all or part of the nine San
Francisco Bay Area counties (the counties of San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara,
Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, and  Napa, as well as parts of Sonoma and Solano
counties). It covers  approximately 5600 square miles, and includes apporximately 6
milling people.

BUDGET:
BAAQMD anticipates the dedication of 2 person years for fiscal  1991.

SOURCES OF THE BUDGET:
Funding for the program will come from fees and penalties assessed by the District.

PROJECTED BUDGET:
BAAQMD anticipates the dedication of 2 person years for fiscal  1992.

analysis of primary hazardous waste streams reduced. Secondary measures of
effectiveness may include number of contacts made, and on-site visits/inspections
conducted. Progress is documented in an annual report.
