The Requirements of 40 CFR 265.32 Required Equipment for Generators of Hazardous Waste
In the previous article of this series I described the requirements of 40 CFR 265.31 – Maintenance and operation of facility. That section was not filled with a lot of specific requirements but instead set a general performance standard to prevent a release of hazardous waste.
This article is the third in a series that will look closely at each section of 40 CFR 265, Subpart C and explain its requirements, how they apply to generators of hazardous waste, and what is required for compliance. Keep in mind that the regulations of your State may differ from these Federal regulations.
The purpose of this article: identify and explain the requirements of 40 CFR 265.32 – Required equipment for generators of hazardous waste under the emergency preparedness and prevention regulations of 40 CFR 265, subpart C.
Hold on a minute! These regulations were revised and moved to a new location within Title 40 of the CFR by the Generator Improvements Rule. If your state has not yet adopted the Generator Improvements Rule, then this article is still applicable to you (but it won’t be for much longer). If your state has adopted and been authorized to enforce the Generator Improvements Rule, then these regulations no longer apply to you.

To see an explanation of these regulations as revised by the Generator Improvements Rule you must refer to the following:
