ITEM HOW TO MANAGE IT

Abrasive Blasting

Materials, Spent

This category consists of silica sand, sandblast grit, garnet blast grit, steel shot, non-skid, and material being blasted (paint, metal, insulation material, etc.).

To be recycled, the grit or steel shot must be designated by Code 106.33, dewatered, and free of trash. Arrangements must be made by the originator with Shop 99HM (call 476-7777) for disposition of grit.

To be disposed in the landfill, the grit must be designated as non-hazardous by Code 106.33 (the TCLP metal constituents are below dangerous waste levels), have an approved Waste Disposal Application, and be dewatered.

If it is designated as hazardous, manage waste per the requirements stated on the returned WIS.

Battle Lantern

Batteries, Used, 6-Volt

These batteries are usually managed as a Universal Waste. Submit a Waste Information Sheet (WIS) to Code 106.33 for designation and manage waste per the requirements listed on the returned WIS. Please provide an MSDS or manufacturer information whenever possible when submitting the WIS.

NOTE: Used non-consumable batteries, i.e. car or emergency light batteries are recycled at Building 978.

CHT:

Calcified

See “Organic Material: Raw Sewage Solids”.

NOTE: Code106.33 would NOT get an E-WIS for this (no different than a dead bird, rat, etc.)

Piping from CHT Systems

If Code 106.33 has designated the piping as non-hazardous and the piping can be disposed of or recycled, observe the following:

If the piping is “smelly,” there is visible residue, or you can't see through it due to bends in the pipe, flanges, etc., securely bag or cap the ends, label as “sewage,” and dispose of in 40-cubic-yard dumpsters for common trash.

If the piping is from a well-chlorinated system and there is no visible residue (you can see through both ends of the pipe), take the CHT labels off and recycle the metal.

Raw Sewage Solids

See “Organic Material: Raw Sewage Solids”.

Spill Clean-up

When a spill happens, call 911. This substance is a health hazard and must be handled accordingly. CHT (sewage) spill clean-up waste must be placed into drums and solidified with an absorbent substance.

EXPORT CONTROLLED DATA: This document contains technical information whose export is governed by U.S.

International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR). This information must not be transferred to a foreign person/entity without proper authorization of the U.S. Government. Violations may result in administrative, Spill Clean-up

Residue

When a spill happens, call 911. This substance is a health hazard and must be handled accordingly. CHT (sewage) spill clean-up residue (i.e., small amounts of CHT cleaned up with kitty litter) must be bagged before placing in the dumpsters. Free liquids are not allowed.

Common Trash:

General

Refer to the definition of common trash and the completed WIS for Waste Stream 985- 0001. If what you have is an item listed there and your code, shop, or project is listed as a Waste Originator, it has already been designated by Code 106.33. If working on a project, it may need a different waste stream number.

Remember: Reuse or recycle what you can first (see other headings on your left for your item).

Bag waste (being careful to observe bag color restrictions). Determine if marking is required. Although a label is not required for common trash, ask yourself: “If a person did not work here, would they know what the waste inside the bag is, and would they know it was not hazardous?” If the answer is “no,” label or at least legibly mark the bag for identification. Place into the appropriate dumpster.

Construction/

Demolition Debris

Do not assume this is common trash! Waste streams to be generated from the demolition process should be identified via a WIS to Code 106.33, and designated prior to assignment of work. If there are suspected or known contaminants, this information must be provided to Code 106.33 on each WIS. Code 106.33 will sample if required to support waste designations and assignment of waste streams. Manage each waste stream to be generated per the applicable waste management plan and the returned WIS.

Cooking Grease, Used

A sales contract for recycling used cooking grease is in place. DO NOT PUT USED COOKING GREASE IN ANY DUMPSTER!! Manage this recyclable item as follows:

Contact Shop 99HM at 476-7777 to request drums for used cooking grease. They will provide the drums and necessary secondary containment to collect any overflow that might occur.

Use ID Label, PSNS&IMF 5090/82, provided by Shop 99HM and identify the contents as "Used Cooking Grease." Place on the side of the drum, toward the top, where it can easily be seen.

It is the responsibility of the originator of the grease (i.e., ship, club, etc.) to ensure the accumulation drums and secondary containment areas are kept clean.

Do not put anything other than cooking grease into the accumulation drum.

When one accumulation drum is full, contact Shop 99HM again to exchange it for an empty drum. Because time must be allowed for response, it is highly recommended that the call be made before all of the drums are full.

If you are vacating a space (whether on the pier or in a building), it is imperative Shop 99HM is contacted to pick up the grease container(s) and secondary containment prior to your departure.

EXPORT CONTROLLED DATA: This document contains technical information whose export is governed by U.S.

International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR). This information must not be transferred to a foreign person/entity without proper authorization of the U.S. Government. Violations may result in administrative, Drums, Steel, Empty

The BNC has a recycling contract for empty, open top and bung top, 55-gallon steel drums with lids and bands that do not designate as extremely hazardous waste (EHW).

Take them to Shop 99HM for accumulation (even though they are not HW). When a truckload of drums has accumulated, Shop 99HM will notify the RMTS for pick-up via the recycling contractor.

Electrical Cable

All types of electrical cable are sent for recycling under the PCB cable recycling contract. We do not test this cable for PCB, asbestos, or heavy metals because the receiving facility is permitted to receive cable containing these contaminants. There is no longer an electrical cable sampling requirement. Contractors shall place their cabling into marked containers on the projects (as directed by the ESH Manager).

Fluorescent

Tubes

Fluorescent tubes contain varying amounts of mercury causing them to designate as a hazardous waste. Manage and dispose of waste tubes as Universal Waste as detailed on the returned WIS.

Hoses, Rubber

Submit a WIS to Code 106.33 for designation of this waste.

Hull, Wash Water

You must notify Code 106.32 prior to starting work. If water pressure is less than 150 psi, hull wash water may go to the dry dock floor. For water pressures greater than 150 psi, refer to Local Standard Item 099-005NW paragraph 3.3.

Lighting Ballasts:

Non-PCB

Lighting ballasts that are marked non-PCBs can go to general trash via the WIS process. Ballasts that are not marked Non-PCBs shall be designated by Code 106.33 and disposed of according to the returned WIS.

Mattresses from Submarines and

Ships

Provided they have not been used in the hospital/infirmary areas, mattresses will be sold through DLA without health certification. Contact DLA at 476-7441 to see if a market is available for the mattresses and follow these procedures:

Contact NAVFAC NW, PRK33 for delivery of flat bed or van trailer.

Palletize lengthwise in groups of 20 mattresses, taking care to stack them evenly.

Immediately cover the stack with plastic to ensure no rainwater can come in contact with the mattresses during transport or storage.

Metal: Cadmium- Plated Fasteners

These are not required to be managed as hazardous waste if they are properly managed as a recyclable material. These fasteners are a type of steel with particular storage requirements. Accumulate in a sealable container and take to the RMTS.

Metal:

Carbon-Arc Electrode Ends

These rods are only 15 percent copper. When they are expended, there is not enough copper to reclaim. Dispose per guidance provided on the returned WIS.

Compressors with Motors

Removed from Refrigeration

Units

These must have the Freon and oil removed prior to turning in for scrap metal recovery at the Reutilization Material Transfer Station (RMTS). The Freon must be reclaimed by certified reclamation personnel. Drain the oil, following the oil handling procedures as indicated on the returned WIS. Seal the ends of the compressor oil lines. Contact RMTS for help in filling out a Material Delivery Record (MDR) which must be submitted with the units being turned in. On the MDR, use "copper-bearing metal scrap" as a description. Add the following additional verification to the description block: "Freon and Oil have been removed". Turn in to the RMTS.

Steel Containing Fillers

Steel containing fillers (e.g., syntactic foam, coal tar, pine tar, or asphalt varnish) are now recycled on a special contract. Keep separate from other metals.

Steel shot is recycled through RMTS unless it has been used to remove PCB contaminated material. Contact Code 106.33 for disposal of steel shot with PCB.

Welding Rod Ends

With the exception of carbon rod stubs (i.e., carbon arc electrodes) and thorium-tungsten rod stubs, welding rod ends will be segregated into two categories: ferrous and non-ferrous.

If metals are normally accumulated in your area, you may place the ferrous rods in the container holding light steel and the non-ferrous rods in the container holding non-ferrous metals.

Using an MDR, identify the ferrous rod ends as "light steel." If non-ferrous, identify them as "non-ferrous welding rod ends." Turn rod ends into the RMTS.

Oil-Contaminated

Items

Example: Oily rags. Do not just throw these away! They are controlled by Shop 99HM;

and designated via the WIS submittal process.

Pallets

After you have inspected your areas and determined which wooden pallets are no longer of use, send the pallets to Building 513. It is helpful, although not required, to segregate them into two stacks, hard wood and soft wood, at the point of origination.

Soft wood pallets may be used to palletize other material destined for turn-in to DLA Fort Lewis. All commercial and non-standard DOD pallets shall be turned in, regardless of condition or size. A DD 1348-1A is not required when returning pallets.

Code 580.2 has the responsibility for storage, repair, and disposition of all pallets.

Building 513 personnel perform the following: Segregate commercial vendor pallets from BNC pallets and return commercial pallets to provisionary who supports the home ported ships; transfer serviceable pallets to stock for subsequent issue and reuse; and send repairable pallets to the repair yard. In addition, uncontaminated pallets beyond repair are held for subsequent pickup by the wood recycling contract or placed in a 40-cubic-yard “Common Trash” dumpster.

Remember: Do not place damaged wooden pallets in 8-cubic-yard “Common Trash” dumpsters. They will damage the compaction equipment.

Wood, Used:

Treated

Fire retardant wood (and/or Merch Wood) is now recycled. See “Wood, Used:

General” for disposal instructions.

Zinc Anodes

Zinc anodes, whether new or used, shall not be exposed to the environment while waiting for disposition. Cover with water resistant material to prevent storm water run-off when it rains. Used zinc anodes are a recyclable metal and shall be taken to RMTS for processing. Zinc anodes will be:

Placed on an appropriate weight bearing pallet, covered to protect from weather, and ID Label attached for identification or Placed in a 55 gallon container, lid installed to protect from the weather, and ID

Label attached to drum for identification.

Used zinc anodes will have the words “Used Zinc” written on the ID Label.

EXPORT CONTROLLED DATA: This document contains technical information whose export is governed by U.S.

International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR). This information must not be transferred to a foreign person/entity without proper authorization of the U.S. Government. Violations may result in administrative, Cardboard:

Non-corrugated

Non-corrugated cardboard, also called “chipboard,” is recyclable and should be placed in the PAPER RECYCLING CONTAINERS. Types of non-corrugated cardboard are cereal boxes, frozen dinner boxes, soda boxes, paper clip boxes, folders, etc.

Corrugated Cardboard

When you cut through a piece of corrugated cardboard, so you have a view of the inside, you will see a sandwich effect: a wavy layer in the middle and a straight layer on the top and bottom. This is what almost all large boxes are made of, and is the type of cardboard that is recycled in the CARDBOARD RECYCLING CONTAINER.

Flatten corrugated cardboard and place in the designated and marked collection container. DO NOT PUT OTHER ITEMS IN THE CARDBOARD RECYCLING

CONTAINER.

If the container is full, place on a pallet large enough to hold the flattened cardboard and place next to the accumulation container. If you know your Recycling Coordinator, ask them to contact the Recycling Hotline. If you don’t know your Recycling Coordinator you must call the Recycling Hotline and let them know the container is full and you have additional cardboard on a pallet.

Cardboard with plastic coating or contaminated with food is not recycled because the process machinery will clog when those substances are present.

Place food-contaminated cardboard (e.g., pizza boxes) in either the common trash or the food waste dumpster (preferably toward the bottom if possible).

Please ensure the cardboard is flattened prior to placement in the dumpster.

The flattening procedure reduces the space the cardboard takes up in the dumpster and allows easier compaction of the dumpster contents.

Additional note: Pizza boxes are not recyclable due to contamination by foodstuffs. Put in FOOD WASTE container.

Glass Containers

GLASS CONTAINERS SHOULD BE RECYCLED!

Glass containers are being recycled in the same recycling and collection container as aluminum cans. Please rinse out glass containers before putting in the aluminum can recycling container. If facilities are not available, rinsing is not required. Color (clear, brown, green, blue, etc.) of the glass container does not matter.

Laser Printer

Toner Cartridges

Used laser toner cartridges should be recycled. Unwanted cartridges are recyclable and should be placed in the TONER RECYCLING CONTAINER located on the loading dock platform in front of Building 997.

EMPTY ALUMINUM BEVERAGE CANS SHOULD BE RECYCLED!

DO one of the following:

Take your empty aluminum beverage cans home (and recycle), OR Accumulate them in the contractor-provided accumulation container located in the designated contractor’s accumulation area for recyclables, OR Own the process: Collect and accumulate the cans in a container provided by you and not located in the contractor’s designated accumulation area, take the cans to a buy-back center. Do not remove the liners or cans within the liners from the contractor’s accumulation containers (this is considered “stealing” and is punishable by law).

IF your group has chosen to accumulate and collect empty beverage cans yourselves, and you have a contractor-provided container that you are not accumulating cans for contractor pick-up, please call the Recycling Hotline and ask that it be removed from your area. BUT please make sure that everyone knows where YOUR container is located.

Paper:

PAPER SHOULD BE RECYCLED!

Paper recycling and accumulation is very simple. Information should be posted inside the paper recycling container lid or somewhere near the area. The current contract allows accumulation and recycling of all acceptable paper products in one container, and is called “Mixed Paper”.

Items that are considered Mixed Paper and can go in the paper recycling bins are:

Colored paper Envelopes (including ones with windows and padding) Carbonless paper Paper ream covers Magazines and Newspapers Construction paper Folders Non-corrugated cardboard

Individual accumulation containers (what you use at your desk) are neither required to look official nor must they be made in any particular way. An example of a common accumulation container is an empty box that used to hold copy paper.

They fit nicely under the desk. You, the originator, are responsible for taking the paper from your individual container and placing it in the designated recyclable paper accumulation area in your building/outside area.

For information concerning security-sensitive papers, contact the Security Department for instructions.

PSNS & IMF has an “All Shred” policy for paper waste. Place all government produced paper in the lockable paper recycling receptacles. Commercially produced paper (e.g., newspapers and magazines) is encouraged to be shredded also to avoid mishandling.

Packing P-Nuts Packing Sheets and Molded Packing

We do not currently have a market for packing p-nuts. Place in a bag (to keep them from flying everywhere) and dispose as common trash. Packing sheets or molded packing, commonly used when packing equipment or computers is very effective in absorbing shipping shock; however there is no market available for recycling them.

Dispose as common trash.
