Small business hazardous waste collection scheduled
The Royal Register News
MOSES LAKE - Businesses and agencies that generate small amounts of hazardous waste will have a disposal opportunity on Friday, May 11 in the parking lot at the Moses Lake Surf n' Slide Waterpark.
Although there is a fee for this disposal opportunity, participants often see a reduced cost, according to Grant County Solid Waste. The business or agency must be a small quantity generator to participate.
To be a small quantity generator, the business or agency must generate less than 220 pounds per month and accumulate less than 2,200 pounds of hazardous waste before disposing of the waste. A business must also accumulate less than 2.2 pounds of acutely hazardous waste per month or batch.
Examples of hazardous waste include spent florescent light bulbs, paint thinner, oil based paint, solvents, aerosols, corrosives, pesticides, poisons, and oxidizers.
To participate, businesses and agencies must pre-register before May 1. Call Grant County Solid Waste at 754-6082 ext. 3508 for questions or to receive the application packet.
