Waste Containers. Containers used for wastes must be in good condition (i.e. not rusting, without cracks or structural defects). If a container is broken or begins to leak, the material must be transferred to a container in good condition. The material composition must be compatible with the material to be stored and incompatible materials must not be stored in the same container. Containers must have a secure closure (e.g., screw cap). Parafilm, glass or rubber stoppers are not considered secure closures. Liquids must be stored in containers with tight fitting, screw top lids. Containers of liquid waste must not be “overfilled”; the maximum amount of liquid in the container must not exceed 90% of its capacity.
