Construction

With the regulations regarding storm water runoff, Western Environmental Services can help with containment, according to your need. Construction companies generate cement rinse water, which can be stored in a holding tank until pumping is required, or can be pumped directly from a holding pit. Depending on your need, we can help.

Summary of Generator Management Requirements for Used Oil Filters:

• Drain and collect the free-flowing oil from the filters and manage the collected oil under the requirements for used oil.
• Properly contain, label and store the used oil filters.
• Store them within the allowed time limits.
• Transport them under a bill of lading to an approved destination for purposes of metal reclamation.
• Keep a copy of the bill of lading for three years.

Health and Safety Code section 25250.4 requires that used oil be managed as a hazardous waste in California unless it is shown to meet the specifications for recycled oil in Health and Safety Code section 25250.1(b) or qualifies for a recycling exclusion under Health and Safety Code section 25143.2. In most instances, this means that the generator will contract with a registered hazardous waste transporter to have the used oil picked up within the appropriate accumulation period.

The accumulation period is 90 days for generators of 2200 lbs. of hazardous waste per month or more (large quantity generators) or 180 days for generators of less than 2200 lbs. per month (small quantity generators).
