Understanding the Penalties for Non-Compliance with RCRA

The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) is essential for managing hazardous waste from cradle to grave. Non-compliance can lead to severe financial penalties and environmental harm.

RCRA Penalties

  • Hazardous Waste Violations: Penalties can range significantly based on the severity and nature of the violation.
  • Used Oil Violations: Non-compliance with storage, transportation, and processing requirements can result in substantial fines.
  • Universal Waste Violations: Improper handling of items like batteries, pesticides, and mercury-containing equipment can lead to penalties.
  • Underground Storage Tank Violations: Failure to comply with regulations can result in significant fines and environmental cleanup costs.

These penalties can be adjusted based on factors like the size of the business, the severity of the violation, and the history of previous violations.
