Required for Waste Approval and Shipment
EMI requires that
each new shipment of non-hazardous waste that
is proposed for storage and/or consolidation at the facility be accompanied by
a properly executed and approved "Waste
Profile Form (WPF)" or "Virgin
Material Origin Statement" at the facility
manager's discretion. EMI requires that the
Generator or his/her authorized representative complete
and sign the WPF or VMOS. The need for analytical testing of these
waste streams 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.
EMI accepts nonhazardous materials on a bill of lading,
nonhazardous waste manifest or hazardous waste manifest
(using appropriate nonhazardous designation or waste
code). 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, and EMI approval number are accepted
at EMI.

Acceptance,
Treatment and Disposal of This
Waste Stream
EMI accepts
non-hazardous
solids/sludges from various generators and sources.
The pre-approval process for non-hazardous waste includes review of the "Waste
Profile Form" and laboratory analysis, if
requested by EMI.
Containerized
nonhazardous waste is placed into the drum storage area,
or in a box trailer, pending consolidation and bulking
operations. Sludge materials are solidified into solid
waste using sawdust, sand, kiln dust, or other inert
solidification/bulking materials to absorb free liquids.
Consolidation and bulking operations take place in secure
and watertight mixing container. Solidified material is
then loaded into roll-off containers, bulk trailers, or
other suitable conveyances for temporary on-site storage
pending over the road transportation to an approved
disposal/recycling facility. Materials are shipped
off-site for waste to energy recovery, aggregate
recycling, or for landfill
disposal.
