Generator reporting.

The generator must submit the following reports to the department by the specified due date for each report, or within the time period allowed for each report.
(1) Annual reports.
(a) A generator or any person who has obtained an EPA/state identification number pursuant to WAC 173-303-060 must submit an annual report to the department if the number has been active any time during the reporting year, on the Dangerous Waste Annual Report according to the instructions on the form (copies are available from the department), no later than March 1 for the preceding calendar year.
(b) Any generator who is a large quantity generator or a medium quantity generator for at least one month of the calendar year who ships any dangerous waste off site to a treatment, storage, disposal or recycling facility must comply with the annual reporting requirements of WAC 173-303-060 covering those wastes and generator activities for that reporting year.
(c) Any generator who is a large quantity generator or a medium quantity generator for at least one month of the calendar year who stores, treats, recycles or disposes of dangerous waste on-site must comply with the annual reporting requirements of WAC 173-303-390 Facility reporting, covering those wastes and activities for that reporting year.
(d) Any large quantity generator that receives dangerous waste from small quantity generators pursuant to WAC 173-303-200(15) must comply with the annual reporting requirements of WAC 173-303-390 Facility reporting.
(e) Reporting for exports of hazardous waste is required on the annual report form. In addition, a separate annual report requirement is set forth at 40 C.F.R. 262.83(g), which is incorporated by reference at WAC 173-303-230(1).
(2) Exception reports.
(a) A generator who does not receive a copy of the manifest with the handwritten signature of the owner/operator of the designated facility within thirty-five days of the date the waste was accepted by the initial transporter must contact the transporter(s) and/or facility to determine the status of the dangerous waste shipment.
(b) A generator must submit an exception report to the department if they have not received a copy of the manifest with the handwritten signature of the owner/operator of the designated facility within forty-five days of the date the waste was accepted by the initial transporter.
(c) The exception report must include:
(i) A legible copy of the manifest for which the generator does not have confirmation of delivery; and
(ii) A cover letter signed by the generator or their representative explaining the efforts taken to locate the waste and the results of those efforts.
(d) The department may require a generator to submit exception reports in less than forty-five days if it finds that the generator frequently or persistently endangers public health or the environment through improper waste shipment practices.
(e) For rejected shipments of dangerous waste or container residues contained in nonempty containers that are forwarded to an alternate facility by a designated facility using a new manifest (following the procedures of WAC 173-303-370 (5)(e)), the generator must comply with the requirements of (a) through (d) of this subsection, as applicable, for the shipment forwarding the material from the designated facility to the alternate facility instead of for the shipment from the generator to the designated facility. For purposes of (a) through (d) of this subsection for a shipment forwarding such waste to an alternate facility by a designated facility:
(i) The copy of the manifest received by the generator must have the handwritten signature of the owner or operator of the alternate facility in place of the signature of the owner or operator of the designated facility; and
(ii) The thirty-five and forty-five day time frames begin the date the waste was accepted by the initial transporter forwarding the dangerous waste shipment from the designated facility to the alternate facility.
Note:
The submission to the department need only be a handwritten or typed note on the manifest itself, or on an attached sheet of paper, stating that the return copy was not received.
(3) Additional reports. The department, as it deems necessary under chapter 70.105 RCW, may require a generator to furnish additional reports (for example, plans, specifications and engineering reports) concerning the quantities and disposition of the generator's dangerous waste and the generator's compliance with this chapter.
