Hazardous Waste

The Hazardous Waste Branch oversees handling of hazardous waste "from cradle to grave." This involves the promotion of hazardous waste minimization, hazardous waste management and remediation of hazardous waste releases through permitting, corrective action, registration and reporting requirements.

Authority to implement the hazardous waste laws has been delegated to Kentucky by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This site features a frequently asked questions page for citizens interested in learning more about the branch.

The Kentucky Hazardous Waste Branch is organized into five sections:

Administrative Support Section     Permit Review Section     Corrective Action Section     PGDP Section     BGAD Section
