Arguing with myself, depending upon which EPA page document you read, this
is either true as stated or restricted to equipment "typically" disposed
with its charge intact. That would exclude most central air systems which
are not "typically" disposed with their charge intact.
What equipment is typically disposed of with the charge intact?
Mike
UA local 370
Refrigerators, window units, automobiles... Somebody in the waste stream
must remove the charge before the appliance reaches it's final resting place
or is destroyed and that person does not need an EPA certification. They can
even use home made equipment provided it meets (and form filed) the same
requirements as new EPA certified equipment.
I found two references at the EPA site - the first just stated "appliances
in the waste stream". The 2nd prefaced it with "typically disposed..."
Both references were under venting regulations, not certification
requirements.
>
>What equipment is typically disposed of with the charge intact?
The document I feel is most likely accurate is
http://www.epa.gov/Ozone/title6/608/608fact.html#disposal
but it is a fact sheet, not a regulation.
it states:
"
Safe Disposal Requirements
Under EPA's rule, equipment that is typically dismantled on-site before
disposal (e.g., retail food refrigeration, central residential air
conditioning, chillers, and industrial process refrigeration) has to have
the refrigerant recovered in accordance with EPA's requirements for
servicing. However, equipment that typically enters the waste stream with
the charge intact (e.g., motor vehicle air conditioners, household
refrigerators and freezers, and room air conditioners) is subject to special
safe disposal requirements.
Under these requirements, the final person in the disposal chain (e.g., a
scrap metal recycler or landfill owner) is responsible for ensuring that
refrigerant is recovered from equipment before the final disposal of the
equipment. However, persons "upstream" can remove the refrigerant and
provide documentation of its removal to the final person if this is more
cost-effective.
The equipment used to recover refrigerant from appliances prior to their
final disposal must meet the same performance standards as equipment used
prior to servicing, but it does not need to be tested by a laboratory. This
means that self-built equipment is allowed as long as it meets the
performance requirements. For MVACs and MVAC-like appliances, the
performance requirement is 102 mm of mercury vacuum and for small
appliances, the recovery equipment performance requirements are 90 percent
efficiency when the appliance compressor is operational, and 80 percent
efficiency when the appliance compressor is not operational.
Technician certification is not required for individuals removing
refrigerant from appliances in the waste stream.

1. There is no way a scarp yard or SE (sanitation engineer) is going
to take a refrigerator, freezer, window shaker ect without it first
being properly recovered, tagged as such with the EPA number of the
person who did said recovery.
2. You just cant make some hookey home made recovery machine and call

3. You have to be certified to recover refrigerant, and break into

4. The little snippets you quote are largely out of context, meaning

there are not actually disposed of with refrigerant intact.

We certainly agree with that one. This one by no way affects the service

You can't vent propane used as a refrigerant (more common in other

overfill!

Every town dump in MA is required to by MA law. Actually it is a state
"white metal recycling" law, not a refrigerant law. I know my town dump has
no EPA technician and the things get torn up before leaving as scrap steel.
Also, every auto junk yard in MA. They have a certified oiless recovery
machine (too much labor to build one and prove it works?) and use those
simple piercing modified "vise grips". They only touch "small appliances"
Big stuff must have a tag. I have no idea how much money they might waste by
accidentally mixing recovered refrigerants.

I am not defending the consistency of EPA rules but the "Safe disposal"
regulations clearly are very different than service regulations which most
folks in this forum are accustomed to. After I found the more complete safe
disposal requirements, there seems to be a very close match up on types of
equipment covered under this exemption. The type of equipment covered
closely matches that (in general) of that covered by open book mail order
EPA certifications - MVAC and HVAC small appliance.
Those certifications seem only to exist to be sure the regs were read at
least once and certainly not to demonstrate competency.
>Why not just have certified employees?
That would make complete sense to me - anybody who can't pass the open book
MVAC or HVAC type I exams is in real trouble. But, as soon as the got that
they wouldn't be working in this kind of "dump"
But, I didn't make the rules.
BTW - as a courtesy to others would you use "Gerry". I do use both and know
who you mean but others may think it is two different persons.
>Don't you just love an engineer who finds

With Challenger, the engineers said "don't launch, the o-rings will fail",

Heres some other EPA words
Refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment for use on stationary
refrigeration equipment (non-motor vehicle
equipment) must be certified to meet EPA standards
as specified in 40 CFR 82F. Under the certification
program, EPA requires that equipment manufactured
on or after November 15, 1993, be tested by an
EPA-approved testing organization to ensure that it
meets EPA requirements. Recycling and recovery
equipment intended for use with air-conditioning
and refrigeration equipment besides small appliances
must be tested under the ARI 740-1993 test
protocol, which is included in 40 CFR 82F as Appendix B.
Recovery equipment intended for use with small
appliances must be tested under either the ARI 740-1993
protocol or Appendix C of 40 CFR 82F.
Now that more or less prevents some crane operator from attaching a
homemade junk yard machine to recover refrigerant don't it.
>>
>>3. You have to be certified to recover refrigerant, and break into

and some more

EPA has established a technician certification program for persons
("technicians") who
perform maintenance, service, repair, or disposal that could be
reasonably expected to
release refrigerants into the atmosphere. The definition of
"technician" specifically includes
and excludes certain activities as follows:
Included:
attaching and detaching hoses and gauges to and from the
appliance to measure pressure
within the appliance;
adding refrigerant to or removing refrigerant from the appliance
any other activity that violates the integrity of the MVAC-like
appliances, and small
appliances.
In addition, apprentices are exempt from certification
requirements provided the apprentice
is closely and continually supervised by a certified technician.
The Agency has developed four types of certification:
For servicing small appliances (Type I).
For servicing or disposing of high- or very high-pressure
appliances, except small
appliances and MVACs (Type II).
For servicing or disposing of low-pressure appliances (Type III)
For servicing all types of equipment (Universal).
You see that universal type? That's me. Heres my # from the
University of Toledo, #07181015. I indeed know the rules and don't
spend time trying to find a loop hole that don't exist. Quit trying
to propagate false or misleading information concerning the air we
breath some dumb as a rock homemoaner or crane operator will read your
posts and cut the lines venting an ozone depleting substance making
the world a worse place than it already is.

I didn't feel a real need to quote references because the real

ok how is this..
(c) PROHIBITIONS.-(1) Effective July 1, 1992, it shall be
unlawful for any person, in the course of maintaining,
servicing,
repairing, or disposing of an appliance or industrial process
refrigeration, to knowingly vent or otherwise knowingly release
or
dispose of any class I or class II substance used as a
refrigerant
in such appliance (or industrial process refrigeration) in a
manner
which permits such substance to enter the environment. De
minimis
releases associated with good faith attempts to recapture and
recycle or safely dispose of any such substance shall not be
subject to the prohibition set forth in the preceding sentence.
For purposes of this paragraph, the term
'appliance' includes any device which contains and uses as a
refrigerant a substitute substance and which is used for
household
or commercial purposes, including any air conditioner,
refrigerator, chiller, or freezer.

Safe Disposal Requirements
Under EPA's rule, equipment that is typically dismantled on-site before
disposal (e.g., retail food refrigeration, central residential air
conditioning, chillers, and industrial process refrigeration) has to have
the refrigerant recovered in accordance with EPA's requirements for
servicing. However, equipment that typically enters the waste stream with
the charge intact (e.g., motor vehicle air conditioners, household
refrigerators and freezers, and room air conditioners) is subject to special
safe disposal requirements.
... clipped part
Technician certification is not required for individuals removing
refrigerant from appliances in the waste stream.
}
Please note "special safe disposal requirements".
The fact that the EPA can be confusing as heck is not a surprise. They have
technician certification definitions and also created "special safe disposal
requirements"
I see no reason someone already certified should go looking for the special
requirements. Perhaps the special requirements provision is the source of
confusion?

I think that the use of the word "technician" is a catch all phrase
use to refer to all persons doing recovery. I think this should
become clear as you sift through the entire document and the
definitions.
As I said, read it all then we can discuss the parts you feel are
applicable. Somehow maybe this thread could be of an educational
value but most of us don't have the time to read and digest almost 500
pages of government speak and fine print at this time of year so if
you want the job, its yours.
I read it when it first came out and it was quite a lengthy read. I
know there has been amendments and some changes through out the years
but I think the link is an updated version which includes the
amendments. But I could be wrong about that.
I've already spent way more time on it than I had originally planned
and I for one don't intend to dwell on it any further but I will
discuss it in the future after you have some more ammo.
Bear in mind when you find statements that concur with your train of
thought, also go back to other sections and cross reference it to
section 608 where it states that all persons (technicians) have to be
certified, and see if your train is derailed or not. :)
It is a very complex document and open to many interpretations but the
bottom line reason for it is,
1. They do not want refrigerant vented and...
2. They want to make sure that the persons operating the
recovery/reclaiming/recycling equipment know what is required of them.

I can't find anything else that clarifies it and, as you, am not going to

You could be right, none of this stuff is well threaded. I know what our
town does, maybe it is illegal? Our town has an attorney as does Don's
(noting his post) and the EPA is there very frequently. Maybe different
inspectors are confused as well? We had to have a barrier at the bottom of
the landfill, gas vents... You can't take anything (HVAC) there other than a
small appliance unless it has both and refrigerant removal certification and
an oil removal & cleaning certification. MA "white metal" law prohibits
putting appliance metal in a landfill. The steel and aluminum is chopped up
and sent off for recycling using tax dollars. Prior to the white metal law,
they would not accept refrigerators and the like at all.
Heck, in MA it is illegal to dispose of pressure treated wood! Build
yourself a deck and you have to keep the scraps. Translation - have
marshmallow toast (wait till the bad stuff is burnt up or lose your
appetite.) Alternate translation - cut it into little pieces and hide it in
other trash.

I have pondered that - mentioned I can't trace the dates well but the header
of the page I referenced says "including final regulations published on May
14, 1993 (58 FR 28660) , August 19, 1994 (59 FR 42950), and November 9, 1994
