In April, US EPA held its fourth e-Manifest Advisory Board meeting. After the meeting, the Advisory Board delivered its final recommendations to increase use of electronic hazardous waste manifests among generators and transporters.
The Advisory Board focused on ways to make e-Manifests more convenient for generators and transporters, namely by streamlining the electronic signature requirements.
In a document released in October 2020, EPA responds to each of the Advisory Board’s recommendations to increase use of e-Manifests.
