What is an EPA Identification Number?
An Environmental Protection Agency Identification Number, or EPA ID, is required for every non-household generator of hazardous waste. The EPA ID tracks the generation, transportation, and disposal of hazardous wastes (cradle to grave). EPA ID numbers are site/location specific. This number is permanent and there should only be one number for each address, unless you have both a federal and a state number. An EPA ID Number consists of a three-letter prefix followed by nine digits.
