Understanding Hazardous Waste Regulations

Understanding Hazardous Waste Regulations

Wastes generated from the production and processing of marijuana plants must be evaluated to determine if they qualify as hazardous waste under state hazardous waste regulations. Per 40 CFR 262.11, each licensee is responsible for properly evaluating their waste to determine if it is hazardous.

Common types of hazardous waste produced at manufacturing facilities include:

  • Butane

  • Ethanol

  • Isopropyl alcohol

  • Propane

  • Propylene glycol

  • Methanol

  • Vacuum pump oil
