Used Oil* and Universal Waste* Management Checklist
Used Oil and Universal Waste Requirements may be applicable regardless of the status of a
facility as a hazardous waste generator!
Used Oil Storage Areas: As long as used oil is destined for recycling, it can be managed under
the 40 CFR 279 Used Oil Management requirements. The basic requirements for used oil
generators include. ,
Used oil must be stored in container and/tanks that are in good condition (no severe rusting,
apparent structural defects or deterioration) and not leaking.
1/The container or tank (or fill pipes used to transfer used oil into underground storage tanks)
must be labeled with the words "Used Oil". Please note that waste oil is not the same as used
oil. Used oil is destined for recycling. Waste oil is destined for disposal or does not meet the
definition of used oil.
Upon detection of a release of used oil to the environment, the following steps must be taken:
a) Stop the release;
b) Contain the released used oil;
c) Clean up and manage properly the released used oil and other materials; and
