Part 121 Liquid Industrial By-Products (formerly Liquid Industrial Waste) Reporting

Part 121 Liquid Industrial By-Products (formerly Liquid Industrial Waste) Reporting

As of March 2016, as a result of a change in the law, facilities receiving liquid industrial by-products from off-site via public roadway must report their liquid industrial by-products activity to EGLE. Liquid industrial by-product receiving facilities, also called "liquid industrial by-products designated facilities," must submit an annual report detailing their liquid industrial by-product activities occurring from January 1st to December 31st in the prior year by April 30th each year. Examples of materials that are typically subject to regulation as liquid industrial by-product include:

  • Storm sewer and certain sanitary sewer clean-out wastes
  • Catch basin wastes from places like car washes and auto repair shops
  • Antifreeze
  • Food processing and slaughterhouse wastes
  • Power washing wastewaters and sludges
  • Commercial animal boarding, breeding and sale wastewaters and sludges
  • Used oil
  • Brine
  • Animal and vegetable fats
  • Leachate
  • Very small quantity generator (VSQG) hazardous waste liquids exempted from hazardous waste regulation, formerly called conditionally exempt small quantity generator (CESQG) hazardous waste liquids
  • Other liquids exempted from hazardous waste regulation like fuels being recycled
  • Universal waste liquids partially exempted from hazardous waste regulation like pharmaceuticals, antifreeze, and pesticides
  • Non-hazardous remediation wastewaters and sludges

Designated facilities are to use the EQP1602 Form and EQP1602 Form Instructions for the appropriate reporting year. You must save this file to your computer before submitting it. Once the reporting form is completed, it should be e-mailed to EGLE-Part-121-Reporting@Michigan.gov.
