e-Manifest

June 30, 2018. the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA or EPA) launched a national system for tracking hazardous waste shipments electronically, this system, known as "e-Manifest," modernizes the nation’s paper-intensive process for tracking hazardous waste from cradle to grave while saving valuable time, resources, and dollars for industry and states.

e-Manifest is a component of EPA's Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) information system, called RCRAInfo. e-Manifest can be accessed by its users in two ways:

1. Through their favorite web browser at https://rcrainfo.epa.gov/

2. Via the RCRAInfo RESTful application programming interface (API)

e-Manifest data is also publicly available 90-days after the manifest completed, or uploaded in the case of a paper manifest, on RCRAInfo Web.
