The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) recently revised its hazardous waste fee structure. While MPCA modeling indicated that the fee formula changes will give about 70 percent of all generators statewide a fee decrease, some businesses are seeing 1,000 percent increases in their fees.
If your company is being hit with an increase, now is a good time to call MnTAP, 612.624.1300 or 800.247.0015, to see if you can identify opportunities to reduce hazardous waste.
