can you make me a content for this section, we will use external treatment provider and please make a contingency plan for emergency disposal due to unforeseen circumstances
Certainly! Here's a suggested content for the Disposal section of the Hazardous Waste Management Plan for laboratory wastes generated in a university:
Disposal:
Proper disposal of hazardous waste is critical to prevent harm to human health and the environment. The university will utilize licensed hazardous waste disposal contractors for the proper disposal of hazardous waste generated in the laboratory. The external treatment provider will ensure that the hazardous waste is treated, transported, and disposed of in compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations.
The university will maintain a list of licensed hazardous waste disposal contractors, and a copy of the current license from the state or federal regulatory agency for each contractor. The university will ensure that the external treatment provider is authorized to transport, treat, and dispose of the types of hazardous waste generated in the laboratory.
The laboratory personnel will segregate the hazardous waste by compatibility and properly label the waste containers with hazardous waste labels. The external treatment provider will transport the hazardous waste from the laboratory to the central hazardous waste storage area on campus, and from there to the licensed treatment and disposal facility.
Contingency Plan for Emergency Disposal:
In case of an emergency situation such as a spill or release of hazardous waste, the university will follow the emergency response procedures outlined in Section 9 of this Hazardous Waste Management Plan. The university will also establish a contingency plan for emergency disposal due to unforeseen circumstances.
The contingency plan will outline the procedures for emergency disposal of hazardous waste, and the responsible parties who will coordinate the emergency response. The contingency plan will include the contact information for the licensed hazardous waste disposal contractors, and the emergency response agencies such as the fire department, the police department, and the state or federal regulatory agencies.
The laboratory personnel will be trained on the emergency disposal procedures, and the contingency plan will be reviewed and updated annually or as necessary.
