The Environmental Health & Safety Office can assist with determining specific cases, with compliant labeling and container selection. If you have a request or questions, please contact EHS at 805-756-6678 or email at [email protected] . RSS WASTe Cal Poly campus generators have been using the WASTe (Waste Accumulation Storage Tracking electronically) system within the Risk and Safety Solutions (RSS) program. All waste generated in laboratories and research environments must use RSS WASTe to ensure proper tracking and management. This integrated system, which also handles campus inspections and chemical inventories, has become our standard practice for regulatory compliance. All campus laboratories and shops should have access to RSS. If you need access, you'll need to be assigned to a specific "role" and "group" within the system—contact your principal investigator (PI), lab manager, supervisor, or EHS department. For additional resources, training materials, and guidance, visit the Risk and Safety Solutions (RSS) Web Page. Contact EHS at [email protected] if you have any questions or concerns. Note: Laboratories with dedicated waste technician staff who consolidate routine wastes within their department continue to follow department-specific protocols. e-Waste and Battery Recycling Batteries contain hazardous materials and should never be thrown into regular trash. Similarly, e-waste (computers, laptops, monitors, TVs, computer peripherals, etc.) contains metals and other hazardous materials that can harm the environment if released. These items should never be thrown into regular trash. Instead, they require proper disposal through designated e-waste recycling channels. Campus office areas can request a battery collection bucket for recycling consumer-type batteries by submitting a pickup request using the form below. Battery Bucket Exchange Request e-Waste: Many electronic devices can be repurposed or sold. Those that cannot be repurposed must be recycled. By repurposing or recycling e-waste, we conserve valuable natural resources that would otherwise be used to manufacture new products. Additionally, proper disposal prevents potential data security risks by ensuring that sensitive information is not accidentally released. Electronic waste is managed by the Surplus Department. To request a pickup, submit a Work Order Request using this LINK . NOTE: If you live in student housing, please use the dedicated e-waste and battery containers located in the Post Offices, which are collected by Surplus. Expired Materials, Laboratory Clean Outs, and non-Routine Waste Generation If you are not a user of RSS (office spaces), have expired materials which are in the original packaging or otherwise are not able to use WASTe in RSS to request a hazardous waste pickup, please use the REQUEST A PICK-UP FORM below. Please do NOT transport hazardous materials to Environmental Health & Safety without prior approval. If you have any questions or concerns, please call EHS/Facilities Help Center at 805-756-5555 805-756-5555 or email [email protected] . To request new containers for accumulating hazardous waste, please use the REQUEST WASTE SUPPLIES Form below.
