stes from specific sources. § 261.33 Discarded commercial chemical products, off-specification species, container residues, and spill residues thereof. § 261.35 Deletion of certain hazardous waste codes following equipment cleaning and replacement.

Hazardous waste is any solid waste that either exhibits any of the character

istics of hazardous waste or is a listed EPA waste. In addition, EPA Hazardous Waste Codes are also classified as acute and non-acute. P-listed codes and certain dioxin codes (F020-F023 and F026-F028) are considered to be acute, whereas the remaining codes are non-acute.

§ 261.32 Hazardous wastes from specific sources. (a) The following solid wa

stes are listed hazardous wastes from specific sources unless they are excluded under §§ 260.20 and 260.22 and listed in appendix IX.

States may have their own specific waste regulations as long as they are equ

ivalent to or go above the layer of protection provided by federal regulations. According to the EPA, they may adopt general provisions, and also–provisions for batteries, lamps, mercury, and pesticides.

The RCRA Subtitle C hazardous waste federal program has a long regulatory hi

story in defining “solid waste” for purposes of the hazardous waste regulations. However, the 40 CFR 261.2 definition of solid waste explicitly applies only to wastes that also are hazardous for purposes of the Subtitle C regulations (see 40 CFR 261.1(b)(1)).

federal waste codes begin with F, K, P, U, or D: Dangerous waste sources lis

t (F and K codes). Discarded chemical products list (P and U codes). Dangerous waste characteristics (D codes).

The Federal regulations provide relief from the definition of solid waste at

40 CFR 261.4(a) and from the definition of hazardous waste at 40 CFR 261.4(b). There are exceptions from the definition of solid waste for certain recycling activities (e.g., regenerating sulfuric acid) and for specific materials (e.g., hazardous secondary materials ...

For example, F listed codes encompass waste that’s hazardous and from nons

pecific sources, while K listed codes are hazardous waste from specific sources. P listed codes pertain to discarded commercial chemical products deemed acutely hazardous, while U listed codes fall under the same umbrella but are considered toxic.

EPA has determined that there is good cause for making this action final wit

will note that there are various Hazardous Waste Codes (RCRA No.) listed in the table. These codes have special meanings and are defined as follows: F-List Hazardous wastes from nonspecific sources (40 CFR 261.31).

Your waste is a corrosive hazardous waste, with waste code D002, if a repres

entative sample has either of two properties: It is aqueous and has a pH less than or equal to 2 or greater than or equal to 12.5, or; It is a liquid and corrodes steel of a specified grade at a specified rate.

The Dangerous Waste Regulations identify chemicals and specific waste stream

s as dangerous wastes. If you have a waste on the list, it’s a dangerous waste. F codes. F waste codes are the most common waste codes. They include spent solvents, like those that are dirty from cleaning or dissolving something.

If the Management Method Code provided in Box 19 does not reflect the ultima

te disposal of the hazardous waste, generators must provide a Handling Code for their wastes in Block 13. If a Handling Code is not provided for Management Method Codes H132 and 141, the waste will be assumed to be landfilled.

(1) In cases where hazardous wastes may have both an EPA Hazardous Waste Num

ber and a California Hazardous Waste Code Number, both numbers shall be used in complying with the notification requirements of Health and Safety Code section 25153.6 and the recordkeeping and reporting requirements under chapters 12 through 15, 18, and 20 of this division.

Indiana's hazardous waste management rules are codified at 329 IAC 3.1. Indi

ana has adopted most of the federal hazardous waste management standards codified federally at 40 CFR Parts 260-270, and 273. Exceptions and additions to the federal rules are specifically noted in the state's hazardous waste management rules.

Generators should use state waste codes on the Uniform Hazardous Waste Manif

est if federal waste codes do not apply. These include M001 through M012 for PCB wastes, MH02 for dioxin waste, D096 for the disposal of used oil with less than 50 ppm PCB's and D098 for the disposal of used oil.

Waste codes & descriptions. Waste codes reflect either the contaminants (eg

cadmium) or source (eg printing industry) of the waste. The Controlled Waste NEPM waste codes are used in SA.. The waste descriptions are based on the Victorian waste codes (which in turn are based on the former ANZECC waste codes), but have been modified to accommodate industry needs in SA.

Under state and federal law, a facility that generates hazardous waste bears

"cradle-to-grave" responsibility for the waste's creation, handling, transport, treatment and ultimate fate. All Massachusetts waste generators and treatment facilities that initiate shipments of hazardous waste and/or waste oil must use manifests.

Implementation of Tennessee's hazardous waste program began in October 1980.

The Division of Solid Waste Management (DSWM) regulates hazardous waste generation, transportation, storage, treatment, and disposal. Regulation of hazardous waste is also a federal responsibility under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).
