Documents
Required for Waste Approval and Shipment
EMI requires that
each new shipment of gasoline contaminated media that
is proposed for storage at the facility be accompanied by
a properly executed and approved "Waste
Profile Form (WPF)". EMI requires that the
Generator or his/her authorized representative complete
and sign the WPF. The need for analytical testing of this
waste stream may be waived based on the generator’s
knowledge of the waste source. EMI will issue a EMI
Authorization number for the waste stream prior to
scheduling and acceptance of the waste at the EMI
facility.
Proper
shipping papers must accompany all wastes received at EMI.
All hazardous wastes are shipped on a hazardous waste
manifest with a properly executed Facility
Land Ban Notification (FLBN) form. EMI-approved
transporters must examine their shipping papers to
determine accurate drum counts, quantities, waste types,
approval numbers, etc. to detect any discrepancies that
could be corrected prior to arrival at EMI. Only shipments
accompanied by proper/complete shipping papers, WPF, FLB,
and EMI approval number are accepted at EMI.

Acceptance,
Treatment and Disposal of This
Waste Stream
EMI accepts
gasoline contaminated media from various generators and sources.
The pre-approval process for gasoline contaminated media includes review of the "Waste
Profile Form" and laboratory analysis, if
requested by EMI.
Containerized
gasoline contaminated media is placed into the drum storage
area. Sludge materials may be solidified into solid
waste using sawdust, sand, kiln dust, or other inert
solidification/bulking materials to absorb free liquids.
Gasoline contaminated media is then shipped
off-site to properly licensed facilities for waste to energy recovery, aggregate
recycling, landfill disposal, or incineration. The method
of ultimate disposal can vary based on the ultimate
disposal facility's acceptance criteria, the physical
properties of the waste, and/or the generator's personal preference
for ultimate disposal of their waste.
