Regulations are regulations, they should affect everyone equally
 

When it comes to safety, everyone ought to follow the same guidelines. Just because one organization is smaller, does not mean that there should be less regulations on the way they handle hazardous waste. Waste is still dangerous, the size of an organization who makes it is irrelevant. If they cannot safely deal with the byproducts of their manufacturing processes, then perhaps they should not be manufacturing hazardous substances in the first place.
