"If you are a Large Quantity Generator (LQG) of hazardous waste, you must comply with the full set of federal hazardous waste regulations. You are considered an LQG if you generate more than 2,200 lbs (1,000 kg) of hazardous waste or more than 2.2 lbs (1 kg) of acute hazardous waste per calendar month. To assist your business in learning about these requirements, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has prepared this summary fact sheet." (Quoted from paper)
