What this lesson covers
In this lesson, you'll learn to: state the accumulation time limits for small and large quantity generators, apply the 200-mile and extension rules, list what a container label must show, and apply the inspection, ignitable waste, and F006 rules. Generator status sets the clock for how long waste can sit on site without a permit. A small quantity generator may accumulate for no more than 180 days.
