What are the potential effects of hazardous materials in various forms?
Damage to persons, property, or the environment.
What are the differences between hazardous and non hazardous waste and the relationship of this to potential contamination?
Hazardous wastes are materials that are to be discarded (i.e. are wastes) but can be a danger to people or to the environment and meet the definition based on the identity of the material or on test results. If hazardous wastes are mixed with the nonhazardous wastes, the result is a hazardous waste. A non-hazardous waste is something that is to be discarded (i.e is a waste) but does not meet the definition of a hazardous waste.
