• If you do not receive a signed page number 3 from the facility within 45 days of the shipment, you must file an exception report with the MPCA.  (It's a good idea to call your inspector, in addition to filing the Exception Report.)

What is an Exception Report?

 

If you do not receive the final page from the facility within 45 days of the date the waste was accepted at the facility, you must send an exception report to the MPCA. An exception report is simply:

• A letter addressed and sent to the MPCA Commissioner and WashingtonCounty Hazardous Waste Program stating the problem and what you have done to locate your waste; and,
• A photocopy of the initial manifest page from your records.

Keep a copy of this exception report in your records for a minimum of three years.

• Within 40 days of the date the waste was accepted at the facility, send the photocopy of the signed page number 3 to:
