Statute overview

About this statute

This provision mainly defines waste-management terms and sets out how several kinds of waste are classified. This provision lists many wastes and sites that are designated or exempt, and it sets documentation, reporting, storage, and transport conditions for some exemptions. This provision requires certain landfilling-site owners and operators to file reports and keep landfill-gas facilities operating, and it sets rules for waste handling, portable-toilet waste, asbestos waste, subject waste reporting, and carrier manifest disposal. This provision sets rules for moving subject waste, including manifest submissions, receiver decisions, Director approvals, and some storage/exemption conditions. Operators and owners of selected waste depots and pesticide container depots must follow recordkeeping, notice, storage, access, and removal rules; the section also bans PCB waste land disposal and sets treatment conditions for some hazardous waste before land disposal.
