One of the oft-forgotten imperatives of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) is that you’re responsible for any hazardous waste you “generate” from “cradle-to-grave.” This includes its generation, transportation, treatment, storage, and disposal.

Thereby, you’re not only accountable for a hazardous waste from the moment it’s generated; you’re also legally responsible for its safe transportation to wherever it will be ultimately processed or disposed of.

Or another way to look at it: Once you’ve generated a hazardous waste, there’s no way to rid yourself of complete responsibility for it.

You’ll be responsible for any improper off-site transportation and disposal—should such a thing happen—along with all the legal and financial liabilities that might apply, not to mention the public relations nightmare that goes along with being labeled a “polluter.”
