 Join us for our upcoming webinars in the Waste Webinar Series
The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), Materials Management Division (MMD) proudly presents the Waste Webinar Series. The series was first recorded in 2016, refreshed in 2020 and 2023, and is being refreshed again in 2026. The Waste Webinar Series provides valuable information to help Michigan facilities achieve and maintain compliance with the hazardous waste and liquid industrial by-products regulations. Sites handling these waste streams are encouraged to view all of the webinars that apply to site-specific waste activities and complete the self-certification form that documents the training was completed.
The webinars are introductory in nature, free, and feature firsthand experiences from MMD inspectors. Anyone responsible for environmental, health, and safety compliance would benefit from participating in and/or viewing the webinars. Anyone who registers for the webinars will get a follow-up e-mail with additional topic specific resources and a link to the recording when it is available.
Do not miss out, register today or catch up by viewing the recordings shared on the Waste Webinar Series Webpage.
Upcoming webinars in the series
Learn why the universal waste regulations exist, what a universal waste is, and how universal waste must be handled and disposed to meet the universal waste partial exemption from hazardous waste regulation.
Learn about common liquid industrial by-products, including used oil, and how generators and receiving facilities must manage non-hazardous liquids, such as catch basin cleanout waste, antifreeze, brine, vegetable fats, leachate, and more.
Learn what a hazardous secondary material (HSM) is, how it must be handled, the legitimacy criteria that must be met, and how this exemption from hazardous waste regulations benefits the generator, recycler, and the environment.
Learn what a very small quantity generator (VSQG) is and what they must do to maintain their exemption from the hazardous waste regulations.
Learn about the regulations that apply when transporting hazardous waste and liquid industrial by-products in Michigan. In this webinar attendees will learn who has to obtain a permit and registration from EGLE, and maintain spill insurance for transporting these wastes streams. This session will also cover how the shipments must be documented by all those handling the waste streams (the generator, transporter, and disposal facility) and the records an inspector will request when performing an inspection.
