Sec. 262.101  What is in this subpart?

    This subpart provides a framework for a new management system for 
wastes that are generated in University laboratories. This framework is 
called the Laboratory Environmental Management Standard. The standard 
includes some specific definitions that apply to the University 
laboratories. It contains specific requirements for how to handle 
laboratory waste that are called Minimum Performance Criteria. The 
standard identifies the requirements for developing and implementing an 
environmental management plan. It outlines the responsibilities of the 
management staff of each participating university. Finally, the standard 
identifies requirements for training people who will work in the 
laboratories or manage laboratory waste. This Subpart contains 
requirements for RCRA solid and hazardous waste determination, and 
circumstances for termination and expiration of this pilot.
