e-Manifest Registration Status Register

PROBLEM: Since January 22, 2025, every large and small quantity generator must be registered for EPA's e-Manifest system through RCRAInfo — and facilities that are not registered cannot legally initiate hazardous-waste shipments. Registration is the gate to the whole electronic tracking system, yet there is no shared register showing which generators in a region are registered, which are not, and which are shipping anyway.

SOLUTION: An e-Manifest registration status register: every generator logged with its RCRAInfo registration status, its generator class and its shipment history, with unregistered shippers flagged before their next pickup — so the registration gate is checked before the truck rolls, not after.

EVIDENCE BASIS: DOCUMENTED — LQG/SQG e-Manifest registration required from January 22, 2025 (EPA Third Rule, July 26, 2024); unregistered facilities cannot legally initiate shipments; sources: epa.gov FAQ; era-ehs.com; uswonline.com.
