For Uload L-14 providing calculations for collection space and projected waste: 1. Is there a rule of thumb that a certain size building will have ex-amount of projected mercury waste at any given time? 2. Are there samples of calculations for this upload?

I find that our hospital clients are super aware of their waste streams and can give me the loads, hauling records and mercury policies. There aren't rules of thumb on this as it varies too much. An older facility is going to have more mercury (largely due to lights now) than a newer facility. And I see that I've not opened this thread in a long time.
