Within this Agreement the <br /> acronym RCRA does not only refer to the statute itself, but also to corresponding <br /> regulations codified in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), guidance and policy. The <br /> definitions that follow are based on those established by RCRA, and are intended to <br /> reflect the meaning created by RCRA. <br /> b.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has applied <br /> the listing criteria to hundreds of specific industrial wastestreams. These wastestreams <br /> are grouped into four lists located at 40 CFR Part 261, Subpart D. Each listed waste is <br /> assigned a hazard code by the EPA to indicate its reason for listing a waste. <br /> e. Household Hazardous Waste (HHW): Waste generated by a household that could <br /> technically be Hazardous Waste (as defined above) but that is exempt by RCRA from <br /> the definition of hazardous waste. <br /> f Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generator (CESQG): A commercial business, <br /> facility or other non-household entity that produces less than 100 kgs of hazardous <br /> waste, or less than 1 kg of acutely hazardous waste, per calendar month. <br /> Revised July 2010 1 <br />
