However, MSA will gladly provide technical data regarding the content of our products, thus assisting generators in making waste determinations. Additional information on waste disposal laws is available from federal and state environmental agencies, your organization's environmental management group, or a qualified consulting or waste disposal firm.

WASTE DISPOSAL LAWS

Per federal and state regulations, the generator and only the generator of a waste can determine if a waste is a regulated hazardous waste. No one else can make that decision. Therefore, MSA cannot make this determination for any customer. For example, we cannot tell a customer (1) where to dispose of an item, (2) what technologies to use to dispose of an item (i.e., incineration, landfill, etc.), (3) to simply send a product back, or (4) that a product is nonhazardous.
