Introduction

1.1 Purpose
Waste management is a requirement both from a legislative directive and from ChevronTexaco’s
Policy 530 P&E (Protecting People and the Environment). Sound waste management practice
improves environmental performance and helps avoid potential liabilities or public affairs risks. This
CNL JV/EGTL waste management plan is intended to comply with regulatory and policy
requirements.

1.2 Objective
This waste management plan establishes the procedure or approach to waste management in the
JV/EGTL operations. This plan outlines waste management procedures; selection, operation and
documentation of waste management practices for CNL JV/EGTL:
 Identifies the various waste streams generated
 Indicates source reduction opportunities for each waste stream
 Specifies means to accumulate, store and transport waste prior to disposal
 Specifies the waste disposal facilities needed for the various waste streams
 Specifies Record keeping procedures

1.3 Scope
This plan applies to all activities and to all personnel involved in Nigeria Mid-Africa Strategic
Business Unit (NMA SBU) Chevron Nigeria Limited Joint Venture (CNL JV) and/ Escravos Gas to
Liquids Plant (EGTL) operational control.

Definitions
All waste falls into one of the following four major categories:
Inert Waste - Waste that is physically, chemically or biologically inert. Examples include
construction debris or landscaping trash.
Non-Hazardous Waste - Waste that is within the legal limits for discharge or release into the
environment. The legal limits are defined by Federal Ministry of Environment and Department of
Petroleum Resources Environmental Guidelines and Standards for the Petroleum Industry in Nigeria
(EGASPIN)
Domestic Waste - Waste that is generated from human activities, including solid (e.g., leftover food,
food containers, office waste, etc.), liquid (e.g. used cooking oils, etc.), or sanitary waste (e.g., waste
from toilets, bathrooms, and kitchen drains).
Hazardous Waste
Waste that has physical or chemical properties exceeding legal disposal limits. Wastes under this
category have the characteristics as defined in DPR regulations.
Note: Waste management alternatives for Hazardous waste are limited and include additional
documentation as noted in the waste detail sheets in Appendix B.

CNL JV/EGTL SWP 701 - Waste Management Practices

Hazardous waste is further classified as follows:

Ignitability - Describes liquid waste with a flash point up to or less than 60°C; solid or semi-solid
wastes capable of causing fire through friction, absorbing moisture or spontaneous chemical change,
which burn vigorously and persistently when ignited; or waste oxidizers; or compressed gasses that
can ignite.
Corrosivity - Describes aqueous waste with a pH of < 2 or > 12.0.
Reactivity - Describes substances that are likely to cause an explosion, are normally unstable and
readily undergo violent change without detonating, can react violently, are potentially explosive or
generate dangerous quantities of toxic or explosive gases, vapors or fumes when mixed with water.
Toxicity - Describes any material which could cause acute or chronic adverse health effects in
persons exposed to low doses; or in the absence of data on human toxicity, have been shown in
studies to have an oral LD50 (rat) of less than 50 milligrams per kilogram, an inhalation LD50
toxicity (rat) of less than 2 milligrams per liter, or a dermal LD50 toxicity (rabbit) of less than 200
milligrams per kilogram or a 96-hour LC 50 toxicity to aquatic species.
Medical waste - Is generated during medical procedures and includes bandages, dressings, surgical
waste, tissues, dialysis wastewater, medical laboratory wastes and food waste from persons with
infectious diseases.
Radioactive - Describes waste from radioactive sources.

Waste Management Process

CNL JV/EGTL waste management strategies is to first inventory and categorize waste and then either
minimize or treat prior to final treatment or disposal.

3.1 Inventory Wastes

The department generating the waste is responsible for the waste inventory, which must provide brief
information on each waste, including quantity.
The CNL HES Division coordinates the over-all inventory.
Appendix A includes a summary inventory of waste and management options for waste generated at
CNL JV/EGTL facilities.

3.2 Characterize Waste

Appendix B contains typical waste detail sheets indicating classification, analyses, restrictions, waste
management practices, etc., for waste generated by CNL JV/EGTL.
It is the responsibility of the Supervisor (PIC) of the waste generating facility to determine or verify
waste characterization.
Waste detail sheets indicate the kind of analysis to request from the laboratory to assist in waste
characterization. HES can help characterize new or unusual wastes.
Appendix F provides guidance for sample collection.

3.3 Segregate Waste

Waste segregation is critical to the implementation of this procedure.
Wastes that are not properly segregated may be returned to the generator.
Wastes are to be segregated according to categories at the source/location of generation. In Escravos,
waste bins are identified by their colors.

CNL JV / EGTL – SWP 701 Waste Management Practices
CNL JV/EGTL SWP 701 - Waste Management Practices

Burnable waste to be incinerated or disposed with other domestic waste must be put into the BLUE
colored bins; metal junk must be put into the YELLOW colored bins, bottles must be put into
GREEN colored bins.

3.4 Apply Hierarchy

Waste management practices are selected according to a hierarchy of priorities: in descending order
they are elimination, minimization, treatment, and safe disposal of wastes.
The following examples illustrate the hierarchy of waste minimization and treatment.
1. Source Reduction (first choice) — elimination or minimization of waste through material
elimination through the purchase and stocking of only what is needed, process modification,
and good housekeeping
2. Reuse — the use of reusable materials (e.g. chemical containers & wood pallets.)
3. Recycling or Recovery — the conversion or extraction of waste into reusable materials such
as generator waste oil.
4. Treatment — the destruction, volume reduction, detoxification, or neutralization of waste
through process such as biological degradation, incineration, & neutralization.
5. Disposal (last choice) — the safe disposition of waste residues in facilities such as a
Government approved dump site and injection well.

3.5 Implement Waste Management Details

Specific recommendations for waste management are summarized in Appendix A, Waste Inventory
and Summary of Management Practices.
Detailed description of each waste and its waste management practices are given in the waste detail
sheets, Appendix B.

Documentation
Keep accurate records that track the amount of waste generated and the disposal methods used.
Waste generating facilities must use the Waste Tracking Log (Appendix F). The log includes the date
and Type(s) and Quantity of waste manifested and transferred for handling/disposal. The Supervisor
of the waste generating facility ensures that all records of waste transferred are logged.
All waste shipments shall be accompanied by a Waste Manifest (Appendix G). The Supervisor of
the waste generating facility ensures that waste transferred from his facility is manifested.
Waste manifesting procedure:
1. Person generating waste fills out Waste Manifest and gives it to the Carrier (Vessel, Barge or
Truck) captain or driver
2. Captain or driver transfers waste to treatment/disposal location
3. Captain hands over manifest to Marine Supervisor or his designee
4. Marine group or driver hands over waste and manifest to the person responsible for disposal
5. Waste Manifest is filed once waste is disposed.
6. Copy of the manifest is sent to HES for filing if handling/disposal will be carried out by
another group.

Waste Disposal
Appendix C lists waste management facilities at CNL JV/EGTL, indicates which facilities are
operated at each location and which facilities or services are provided at third-party or off-site
locations.

Training
Supervisors ensure that all personnel working in their groups are trained on the principles of waste
management.
Training includes:
1. Identification and handling of waste material,
2. Health, safety and environmental concerns related to waste handling,
3. Benefits of proper waste management,
4. Methods used in segregating, characterizing and minimizing waste; and
5. The choice of final disposal option.
Note: The HES staff is available to provide guidance on the principles of waste management training
in all locations. Guidance in this context means memo, telephone call, safety meeting
discussion/presentations, short courses, etc. To a great extent, the type of guidance will be determined
by the needs of the Supervisor and personnel involved subject to the approval of the HES
Superintendent.

Appendix H: Standard Procedure for Sample Collection

F.1 GENERAL
The goal of sampling is to obtain for analysis a portion of the main body of the waste that is
truly representative.

F.1.1 If sample is transported in a container, warning and descriptive labels should be

attached to the outer container, such as “Fragile,” “Hazardous,” “Corrosive,”
“Flammable,” etc., where applicable.

F.1.2 The person requesting the samples will determine quantity, the method and
equipment to be used. These decisions will vary with the form and consistency of the
waste materials to be sampled and shall be determined on a case by case basis.

F.2 COLLECTION OF SAMPLES

The following should be noted during sample collection
 Be sure to obtain a sample that is truly representative of the existing
condition
 Handle samples in such a way that it does not deteriorate or become contaminated before
it reaches the laboratory.

F.2.1 Sample Containers: Sample containers should be made of materials that will not
contaminate the samples and shall be cleaned thoroughly before use to remove all
extraneous surface dirt.

F.2.2 Samples Labels: Sample labels should have the following information:
 Sample Number
 Date and time of sampling
 Point/location of sampling (sufficient information should be provided to enable
anyone to collect a second sample from the identical spot the first sample was
taken)
 Name and Signature of sampler.

Appendix I: Neutralizing Waste

G.1 LIQUID WASTES
G.1.1 Corrosive wastes should be neutralized before they are disposed.
G.1.2 The following instructions describe neutralization for liquid wastes. Note: Laboratory
wastewater is automatically neutralized in batches before it is released from the
laboratory sump; manual testing and neutralization is not required.
a. Only neutralize aqueous wastes in a container with a vent.
b. Test pH
 Is it acidic (pH <2.0)? or is it caustic (pH > 12.0)?; then waste is corrosive
and it should be neutralized.
 On the other hand if waste is acidic (i.e., 2.0 < pH < 6.5) or it is alkaline (i.e.,
12.0 > pH > 8.5), then waste is not corrosive and neutralization may not
necessarily be required.
c. Select a neutralizing agent:
 If waste is acidic (pH < 2.0) use normal solution or weaker sodium hydroxide
(1.0 molar or less, NaOH solution).
 If waste is acidic (pH 2 - 6.5) use normal solution or weaker sodium
carbonate (1.0 molar or less, NaCO3 solution).
 If waste is caustic or alkaline use normal solution or weaker hydrochloric
acid (1.0 molar or less, HCl solution).
d. Calculation of the amount of neutralizing agent required
 Carry out a titration reaction with standard solution of the neutralizing agent
to know the amount required. Or do a calibration of pH values with the
neutralizer.
 Add wastes to neutralizing agent.
e. Check pH: Is it between pH 6.5 and pH 8.0? If so, it is OK to release to
process sewer or sanitary sewer.

Appendix J: Stabilizing Waste With Cement

Cement stabilization may reduce the leachability of soluble waste constituents.
H.1 TEST PARAMETERS
H.1.1 Analyze a test batch of stabilized waste before treating large quantities of waste.
H.1.2 Test parameters should include:
 Comprehensive strength of cured product
 Permeability
 Wet/Dry durability
 pH
 Leachate test (depending on waste characteristic)
H.2 STABILIZATION FOR BATTERIES
 Fill open ended wooden box with about 1/3 with Portland cement pre-mixed with water.
No aggregate is required in the mix.
 Add spent batteries to the open ended wooden box.
 Top off box with Portland cement.
 Stir or rock the drum so cement will fill the voids between the batteries.
 Allow curing for at least 4 hours.
H.3 STABILIZATION FOR AQUEOUS WASTE
For disposing aqueous waste with high lead or other inorganic contamination, substitute
contaminated water for part or all of the fresh water normally used to mix with Portland
cement for stabilizing waste. No aggregate is required for the mix. Note: This will NOT be
effective for oily water or saline water.
H.4 STABILIZATION FOR SOLID WASTES
H.4.1 The following describes disposing solid wastes with high inorganic contamination.
H.4.2 Note the exact ratio of cement to waste may be higher or lower depending on the
moisture in the waste and the particular contaminants in the waste.
H.4.3 The stabilized mix can be made as a monolithic product (large, solid block of cement)
or a granular product (gravel-like mix). Unless directed otherwise, a granular product
will be sufficient to reduce waste solubility and will require less cement.
• Mix Portland cement with sludge or soil in approximately 1:2 ratio. Use dry cement
if waste is wet; otherwise use cement pre-mixed with water.
• Blend the cement-waste mixture until uniform. Small batches may be mixed in a
drum. Large volumes may be mixed in a pit.
• Allow at least time interval of 48 hours for curing.

protective equipment and to confirm that all drum contents are compatible with one
another when mixed together or drained to wastewater.
I.1.3 Separate drums according to the chemical characteristics of the original contents
(e.g., acids, caustics, oils, etc.) to prevent mixing incompatible wastes.
I.1.4 Drums or drum liners with less than 2 cm of residue are considered “empty” for drum
washing.
I.1.5 Return non-empty drums to the waste generator to be used or emptied before
washing.
I.1.6 Residue from drums with the same contents may be combined in a single drum for
return or re-use.
