Re: Household hazardous materials -Reply



Try "Characterization of Municipal Solid Waste in the United States:  1995
Update."  I only have the executive summary and it's report number
EPA530-S-96-001, March 1996.  I can't see anything about household haz
waste in the executive summary but the 4.4 lb/person/day type of numbers
are there.  Maybe the full report has something about household hazardous
waste.
