Import Tips
• Obtain EPA waste generator ID and hazardous waste manifests for all shipments to comply with US environmental import rules
• Test oil for hazardous contaminants like heavy metals; levels above thresholds may require special handling or denial of entry
• Provide lab analysis confirming <50% single hydrocarbon to avoid reclassification to other 2710 subheadings
