Update for Hazwaste Regs




DNREC is in the process of updating the state’s hazardous waste regulations to maintain equivalency with the federal RCRA program and retain state primacy for the program.
The proposed amendments would:
  • Adopt federal requirements for the export of batteries to OECD countries
  • Adopt federal corrections to the Uniform Manifest rules
  • Add clarification regarding subsequent notifications for generators concerning EPA ID numbers
  • Strike a confusing date regarding recordkeeping deadline regarding generator Annual and Exception Reports
  • Allow use of amended SPCC plan as a contingency plan for TSDFs
  • Clarify TSDF submittal of manifest copies to the generator state
  • Strengthen secondary containment by adding requirement for coating and water stops for tanks in TSDF containment requirements
  • Add requirement that generators must keep records on-site for 3 years regarding written records of shipments of used oil
