"The Environmental Protection Agency issued regulations Wednesday creating a national electronic system to track hazardous waste."
"The rule is designed to transition the country away from an antiquated paper-based system, saving companies and states hundreds of thousands of hours worth of paperwork and tens of millions of dollars in annual compliance costs.
The regulation paves the way for a new e-Manifest system envisioned in legislation approved in 2012. Beyond lowering costs, the rule is meant to help authorities when spills occur."
