    Hidropaute is currently biggest Hydroelectric Power Plant operating in Ecuador, with the highest number of electricity generating units working in Mazar and Molino. All industrial activities have aninevitably impact on the environment, the generation units need an ongoing maintenance to ensure their correct operation, also general services activities and medical attention are required as a support inside the plants. There are some dangerous waste generated like used oils (17.740 kg), dielectric oil polluted with PCB (1.137 kg), adsorbent material contaminated (1.967 kg), luminaires (650 kg), and biohazardous waste (150 kg)that could affect the environment or people´s health. For this reason, the main goal would be to have a Hazardous Waste Minimization Planto avoid these risks and achieved the environmental laws. The reduction alternatives were designbased on diagnosis of current situation in waste management,through interview and surveying activities, analysis of data from different sources of company and direct observation of waste´s composition. In base of collected information, the hazardous waste was inventory and priority. In addition, we made a technical, economic and environmental analyze the options that ensure reduction of pollution. These alternatives are been made to reduce in 7% the production of hazardous wasteeach year and include staff trainings, replacement products and technological enhancement. Finally, with the goal to enforce and monitoring the program, we designed an indicator control board.
