INSTRUCTIONS TO USER REPRESENTATIVE: An authorized representative for the User shall fill out all information requested in the top box of the form. The business address shall be the physical address and not a post office box. The User representative shall sign and date the form when the waste is removed certifying that the waste being removed contains no hazardous material.**
INSTRUCTIONS TO WASTE HAULER: The driver of the service vehicle is considered an authorized representative for the waste hauler. The driver shall fill in requested information regarding the waste hauler in the second box of the manifest and shall complete the certification regarding the nature of the waste removed. The address shall be the mailing address of the waste hauler. The driver shall maintain possession of the manifest until the waste is discharged at a qualified disposal site. The waste hauler shall then give the form to the disposal site representative to complete.
INSTRUCTIONS TO DISPOSER: An authorized representative for the disposal facility shall fill in requested information in the bottom box of the manifest. The address shall be the mailing address of the disposal facility. The waste disposal site shall be the physical location of the disposal facility.
