EPA will hold three public meetings to discuss and obtain input from stakeholders on developing a national electronic manifest (i.e., e-Manifest) system, as authorized by Congress, to replace the current paper-based hazardous waste tracking system. The purpose of these meetings is to engage states, industry, and other stakeholders in discussions about what expectations and technical requirements EPA should consider when developing an e-Manifest system. EPA is seeking participants from a variety of professional backgrounds to attend, including program experts and information technology professionals from both state hazardous waste programs and hazardous waste handlers (e.g., generators, transporters, waste management firms). Meeting dates and locations are:.

– February 25-26, 2013; Arlington, VA
– March 14-15, 2013; Chicago, IL
– March 21-22, 2013; Denver, CO
