Fresno Medical Waste Regulations
Regulated medical waste is regulated by the California Department of Public Health, the Fresno County Department of Public Health - Environmental Health Division, and federal regulations.
We understand the importance of compliance with the California Medical Waste Management Act (MWMA). With regulations that differ depending on the classification and amount of waste generated, staying compliant with Fresno regulations can be overwhelming.
Eco Medical wants to help.
We are San Jose medical waste experts. We understand the regulations around generating, handling, collecting, transporting, and disposing of medical waste and we help our Fresno clients stay ahead of inspections, not scramble to prepare for them.
We offer free compliance audits to any Fresno healthcare facility getting regularly scheduled services with us. We'll perform a walkthrough of your facility, review your designated accumulation area, verify container labeling and segregation practices, and ensure you're operating in full compliance.
Key Fresno Medical Waste Requirements:
Designated Accumulation Area: All biohazardous medical waste must be stored in a secured, designated accumulation area labeled with a biohazard warning sign legible from at least 25 feet in both English and Spanish, as required by the MWMA.
Sharps Waste Disposal: Must go into a rigid, puncture-proof sharps container that is sealable and clearly labeled with "Sharps Waste" or the word and symbol "BIOHAZARD." Sharps containers must not be filled past the ¾ full line. Once sealed, they can be placed inside your biohazard bin alongside other biohazardous waste.
Biohazardous & Pathological Waste: Must go into a red biohazard bag (no more than 3 pounds) which is tied to prevent leakage and placed inside an approved, lined biohazard container. In California, pathological waste and biohazardous waste must be segregated and their respective containers properly labeled.
Pharmaceutical Waste: Non-hazardous pharmaceutical waste must go into a non-hazardous pharmaceutical container labeled "INCINERATION ONLY." Hazardous pharmaceutical waste must be managed under RCRA regulations.
Storage Time Limits: Medical waste must be picked up within 7 days of accumulation. Eco Medical helps you set the right pickup frequency to stay compliant without overpaying.
Tracking Documents: All medical waste shipments in California require a completed tracking document (manifest). Eco Medical provides digital and physical manifests for every pickup, accessible through our online compliance portal. Generators must retain tracking documents for a minimum of three years.
