<strong>ITALY</strong> - 6 Hazardous Waste<br />
C6.2.46. Waste Treatment. Any method, technique, or process, designed to change the<br />
physical, chemical, or biological characteristics or composition of any waste so as to render such<br />
waste non-hazardous, or less dangerous to the persons exposed or to the environment; safer to<br />
transport, store, or dispose of; or amenable for recovery, amenable for storage, or reduced in<br />
volume. (Note: Sterilization of medical waste at the waste-generating medical facility is not<br />
classified as treatment).<br />
C6.3. CRITERIA<br />
C6.3.1. Waste Classification. Waste generating activities will classify their waste streams<br />
using the USEUCOM Waste List. Laboratory analysis shall be used to classify unknown wastes<br />
by determining their physical-chemical characteristics and their hazardous properties as<br />
presented in Appendix B-1.<br />
C6.3.2. Waste Analysis Plan. The TWSA/WSA manager, in conjunction with the<br />
installation(s) served, will develop a plan to determine how and when wastes are to be analyzed.<br />
The waste analysis plan will also include procedures for characterization and verification testing<br />
of unknown wastes. The plan should include: parameters for testing and rationale for choosing<br />
them, frequency of analysis, test methods, and sampling methods. In addition, waste analyses<br />
shall be performed prior to transferring waste to recycling/disposal facilities (at the first shipment<br />
and then at least annually and when the waste generating process changes significantly).<br />
C6.3.2.1. Waste generators shall keep a Waste Loading and Unloading Register which<br />
each waste loading and unloading operation shall be registered with the proper unique waste<br />
identification codes from the USEUCOM Waste List. In addition the waste generator shall<br />
complete the annual waste report (MUD); see C6.3.4.4.<br />
C6.3.3. Transportation Criteria<br />
C6.3.3.1. When transporting hazardous waste via commercial transportation on Italian<br />
public roads and highways, HW generators will prepare off-installation HW shipments in<br />
compliance with the packaging and labeling requirements of Chapter 5, “Hazardous Materials.”<br />
Hazardous waste designated for international transport will be prepared in accordance with<br />
USEUCOM’s Joint Transportation and Traffic Management.<br />
C6.3.3.2. Waste transporters shall be registered in Italy and vehicles shall be<br />
appropriately licensed.<br />
C6.3.3.3. The transportation of hazardous waste on public roads and highways shall be<br />
conducted by Italian-permitted companies. Installations that intend to transport hazardous waste<br />
via military vehicles on Italian public roads and highways must provide the Italian Base<br />
Commander with sufficient information to seek a permit for their transport. As an alternative,<br />
Italian-permitted waste transport companies may be used for off-base transport of waste.<br />
C6.3.4. Manifesting Criteria. All waste (urban and special waste, whether hazardous or<br />
non-hazardous) leaving the installation will be accompanied by the waste manifest to ensure a<br />
