March 1 is the deadline for large quantity generators of hazardous waste, as well as facilities that treated, stored or disposed of hazardous waste on-site, to submit their biennial hazardous waste reports to the US Environmental Protection Agency. 
If in any month in 2009 your facility generated more than 1,000 kilograms (2,200 pounds, or about four to five 55-gallon barrels) of RCRA hazardous waste, or more than 1 kg of acute hazardous waste, or more than 100 kg of spill cleanup material contaminated with acute hazardous waste, then you are a RCRA Large Quantity Generator (LQG) and must complete and file the 2009 Biennial Hazardous Waste Report.
For more information including forms and State contacts, visit www.epa.gov/epawaste/inforesources/data/biennialreport/index.htm.
