Environmental Justice Group, the University of Michigan. Tools Needed: BACKGROUND ON THE ISSUES 1. United States General Accounting Office. Hazardous and Nonhazardous Waste: Demographics of People Living Near Waste Facilities RCED 95-84. http://www.lib.umich.edu/govdocs/text/rced9584.txt Special survey of municipal waste sites conducted in 1995. Report includes statistics. Concludes that there is no difference in population living near non-hazardous landfills but minorities tend to live near hazardous landfills. More research needed on health effects of hazardous landfills on minorities. Additional GAO Reports available through GPO Access 2. University of Michigan Environmental Justice Group.

http://www.safety.vanderbilt.edu/resources/hazard_factsheet_id.htm

Extractions: Laboratory personnel should treat all waste chemical solids, liquids, or containerized gases as hazardous wastes unless a specific chemical waste has been confirmed to be a non-hazardous waste by VEHS. A laboratory chemical becomes a "waste" when you no longer intend to use it, regardless of whether or not it has been used or contaminated. Also, spilled chemicals and absorbent materials used to clean the spill should be disposed of as hazardous waste. Please note that the term "chemical" includes items containing chemicals such as acrylamide gels, paints, solvents, degreasers, glues, varnishes, and disinfectants, in addition to stock chemicals and chemical solutions used in laboratory processes. Additional Information on the Definition of Hazardous Waste To ensure consistency with the hazardous waste determination process, laboratories should treat all waste chemicals as hazardous waste and allow VEHS to make the final determination as stated above. However, a more complete description of the hazardous waste determination process is provided here for informational purposes.

Extractions: The Board promotes a zero waste California in partnership with local government, industry, and the public. This means managing the estimated 76 million tons of waste generated each year by reducing waste whenever possible, promoting the management of all materials to their highest and best use, and protecting public health and safety and the environment.

GEO-2000: Chapter Two: The State Of The Environment - Global Issues - Toxic Chem
1 000 tonnes a year are traded to developing countries but illegal traffic in hazardouswaste poses a potentially serious threat to the environment and human
http://www.unep.org/geo2000/english/0037.htm

Extractions: Hazardous waste production The output of hazardous wastes worldwide was about 400 million tonnes a year in the early 1990s, of which some 300 million tonnes were produced by OECD countries (UNEP 1994a), mainly from chemical production, energy production, pulp and paper factories, mining industries, and leather and tanning processes. Progressively tighter regulatory controls have increased the costs of waste disposal in many countries. Export to developing countries with less stringent controls and a lower public awareness of the issue has been one way in which some companies have side-stepped these regulations. Officially, fewer than 1 000 tonnes a year are traded to developing countries but illegal traffic in hazardous waste poses a potentially serious threat to the environment and human health (de Nava 1996). One way of combating such trade is through the system called Prior Informed Consent (PIC) for Certain Hazardous Chemicals in International Trade. Operated by FAO and UNEP, PIC is a procedure that helps participating countries learn more about the characteristics of potentially hazardous chemicals that may be shipped to them, initiates a decision-making process on the future import of these chemicals and helps disseminate this decision to other countries (IRPTC 1999). The aim is to promote a shared responsibility between exporting and importing countries in protecting human health and the environment (see 'The Rotterdam Convention', page 202).
