	If the QEL is 2.2 pounds and the waste is EHW:	If the QEL is 2.2 pounds and the waste is acute DW:	If the QEL is 220 pounds and the waste is EHW or DW:
SQGs generate: TGB not allowed	Less than 2.2 pounds	Less than 2.2 pounds	Less than 220 pounds
SQGs accumulate or store: TGB not allowed	2.2 pounds or less	220 pounds or less	2,200 pounds or less, same as MQGs
MQGs generate:	There is no MQG status for 2.2 pound wastes, go straight to LQG status		At least 220 pounds, but less than 2,200 pounds
MQGs accumulate or store:			2,200 pounds or less, same as SQGs
LQGs generate:	2.2 pounds or more	2.2 pounds or more	2,200 pounds or more
LQGs accumulate or store:	More than 2.2 pounds	More than 220 pounds	More than 2,200 pounds
