Sec. 261.30  General.


    (a) A solid waste is a hazardous waste if it is listed in this 
subpart, unless it has been excluded from this list under Secs. 260.20 
and 260.22.
    (b) The Administrator will indicate his basis for listing the 
classes or types of wastes listed in this subpart by employing one or 
more of the following Hazard Codes:

Ignitable Waste...............................  (I)

[[Page 59]]


Corrosive Waste...............................  (C)
Reactive Waste................................  (R)
Toxicity Characteristic Waste.................  (E)
Acute Hazardous Waste.........................  (H)
Toxic Waste...................................  (T)



Appendix VII identifies the constituent which caused the Administrator 
to list the waste as a Toxicity Characteristic Waste (E) or Toxic Waste 
(T) in Secs. 261.31 and 261.32.
    (c) Each hazardous waste listed in this subpart is assigned an EPA 
Hazardous Waste Number which precedes the name of the waste. This number 
must be used in complying with the notification requirements of Section 
3010 of the Act and certain recordkeeping and reporting requirements 
under parts 262 through 265, 268, and part 270 of this chapter.
    (d) The following hazardous wastes listed in Sec. 261.31 or 
Sec. 261.32 are subject to the exclusion limits for acutely hazardous 
wastes established in Sec. 261.5: EPA Hazardous Wastes Nos. FO20, FO21, 
FO22, FO23, FO26, and FO27.

(b) Listing Specific Definitions: (1) For the purposes of the F037 and 
F038 listings, oil/water/solids is defined as oil and/or water and/or 
solids.(2) (i) For the purposes of the F037 and F038 listings, 
aggressive biological treatment units are defined as units which employ 
one of the following four treatment methods: activated sludge; trickling 
filter; rotating biological contactor for the continuous accelerated 
biological oxidation of wastewaters; or high-rate aeration. High-rate 
aeration is a system of surface impoundments or tanks, in which intense 
mechanical aeration is used to completely mix the wastes, enhance 
biological activity, and (A) the units employ a minimum of 6 hp per 
million gallons of treatment volume; and either (B) the hydraulic 
retention time of the unit is no longer than 5 days; or (C) the 
hydraulic retention time is no longer than 30 days and the unit does not 
generate a sludge that is a hazardous waste by the Toxicity 
Characteristic.
(ii) Generators and treatment, storage and disposal facilities have the 
burden of proving that their sludges are exempt from listing as F037 and 
F038 wastes under this definition. Generators and treatment, storage and 
disposal facilities must maintain, in their operating or other onsite 
records, documents and data sufficient to prove that: (A) the unit is an 
aggressive biological treatment unit as defined in this subsection; and 
(B) the sludges sought to be exempted from the definitions of F037 and/
or F038 were actually generated in the aggressive biological treatment 
unit.
(3) (i) For the purposes of the F037 listing, sludges are considered to 
be generated at the moment of deposition in the unit, where deposition 
is defined as at least a temporary cessation of lateral particle 
movement.
(ii) For the purposes of the F038 listing,

[[Page 62]]

(A) sludges are considered to be generated at the moment of deposition 
in the unit, where deposition is defined as at least a temporary 
cessation of lateral particle movement and
(B) floats are considered to be generated at the moment they are formed 
in the top of the unit.
