Abstract
Any used, contaminated, or unwanted material becomes a waste when it has no further economic value. Here at Emory both hazardous and nonhazardous wastes are produced. Waste identification and disposal are regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Regardless if a material is considered non-hazardous, it must not go in the regular trash or down the drain without EHSO approval. Improper handling and disposal is a violation of regulations and penalties such as jail time can be imposed.
