Arkansas Healthcare Waste Regulations

Where there are research labs there is medical and biohazardous waste, this waste is regulated by the Arkansas Department of Health, which stipulates:

  • All bags and containers used must be correctly labeled and sealed
  • Used sharps must be stored in rigid, leak-proof containers
  • The name of the facility which generated the medical waste must appear on all containers and bags
  • No medical or biohazardous waste can remain at the facility it was generated in for more than 30 days once the container has been filled and closed
  • Untreated medical waste cannot be disposed of in landfill
  • Treated medical waste via an approved method such as incineration or autoclaving can be disposed of in a permitted sanitary landfill facility in accordance with the Arkansas “Solid Waste Management Code”


Medical Waste Disposal in Arkansas can be confusing, we get it! Daniels Health is here to help you navigate the tricky regulatory guidelines associated with everything from sharps waste to pharmaceutical waste disposal, and even RCRA Hazardous Waste disposal.

Let's Talk About Arkansas

Snuggled in the south, it’s easy to see how the “Natural State” got its name. Embrace lake life at Ouachita State Park, relax at the Hot Springs National Park, see the state’s tallest mountain in Mount Magazine Park, hike Cedar Falls or travel back in time on the Arkansas Heritage Trails. While Arkansas may not be the first state that comes to mind as a top tourist destination, its abundant unique sites and experiences make it a diamond in the rough.


The Crater Diamond State Park has a simple door policy “finders, keepers ,” which attracts treasure hunters from all over to become a diamond miner for a day, or you can venture underground to explore a subterranean world of twisting caves, stalagmites, stalactites and lakes in the Ozark Mountain region. Get a bird’s eye view of the Buffalo River from Hawksbill Crag, popular for canoeing and rafting, or go kayaking, fishing for catfish or both at Bayou Bartholomew, the world’s longest bayou.

Take a “Billgrimage” to the Clinton Presidential Center and have your picture  taken at the Oval Office or go ghost hunting at the Crescent Hotel and Spa in Eureka Springs, the most haunted hotel in the US. Did you know Arkansas is wine country? Visit the tiny town of Altus, where you’ll find the “Château Aux Arc Winery” with the biggest chardonnay vineyard outside of California; and regardless of where you are, grab a slice of the state’s iconic “Possum Pie.” Like many southern states, Arkansas’  main industry is agriculture in addition to manufacturing and biotech. The majority of bioscience companies in Arkansas are small research and test labs involved in agriculture-related bioscience, and they also have a growing biomedical base.

Waste Classification

Infectious Waste in Arkansas is defined as:

Laboratory wastes, including pathological specimens (i.e., all tissues, specimens of blood elements, excreta and secretions obtained from patients and laboratory animals) and disposal fomites (any substance which may harbor or transmit pathogenic organisms) attendant thereto. It also means surgical operating room pathologic specimens and disposal fomites attendant thereto and similar disposal materials from out-patient areas and emergency rooms, including equipment, instruments, utensils and fomites of a disposal nature from the rooms of patients who are suspected to have or have been diagnosed as having a communicable disease and must, therefore, be isolated, as required by public health agencies.

Storage Requirements

Arkansas state requirements mandate:

Medical waste is to be packaged in a container that can prevent leakage. It shall be stored in a manner and location that protects it from adverse weather conditions and minimizes exposure to the public with proper signs including the universal biohazard sign. Once the container has been filled and closed, you may not store that container on site for more than thirty (30) days.
