Contact Environmental Affairs for assistance 11.3 MANAGING MIXED WASTE WITHOUT A CONDITIONAL EXEMPTION Identification and classification of the hazardous waste component of mixed waste is essentially the same as identification of hazardous waste. The mixed waste is characterized based on the composition of the hazardous waste component. Mixed waste may be identified and characterized by using either generator knowledge of the waste or process generating the waste, or by chemical analysis. Refer to Section 5.1 for guidance on identification of hazardous waste.
11.3.1 Sampling and Analysis of Mixed Waste When possible, generator knowledge should be used to determine if a material meets the regulatory definition of mixed waste. Sampling and analysis should be used only in situations where the material is suspected to be contaminated with hazardous waste, but confirmation using knowledge of the waste stream is not possible. Mixed waste samples must be sent to a facility capable of managing and analyzing both the hazardous waste component and radiological component of the waste. Due to the nature of the material special sampling and shipping requirements are often required.
Environmental Affairs should be contacted for support in identification and classification of mixed waste.
11.3.2 Storage of Potential Mixed Waste Pending Identification Waste which has been sampled to determine if it meets the definition of mixed waste should be labeled as "Potential Mixed Waste - Pending Analysis" and stored in an area meeting the temporary storage requirements provided in Section 7.1. The 90/180(270) day storage limitations do not begin for the waste until identification as mixed waste has been confirmed.
