Sec. 262.106  When must a hazardous waste determination be made?

    (a) For laboratory waste sent from a laboratory to an on-site 
hazardous waste accumulation area, each University must evaluate the 
laboratory wastes to determine whether they are solid wastes under RCRA 
and, if so, determine pursuant to Sec. 262.11 (a) through (d) whether they 
are hazardous wastes, as soon as the laboratory wastes reach the 
University's Hazardous Waste Accumulation area(s). At this point each 
University must determine whether the laboratory waste will be reused or 
whether it must be managed as RCRA solid or hazardous waste.

    (b) For laboratory waste that will be sent from a laboratory to a 
TSD facility permitted to handle the waste, each University must 
evaluate such laboratory wastes to determine whether they are solid 
wastes under RCRA and, if so, determine pursuant to Sec. 262.11 (a) through 
(d) whether they are hazardous wastes, prior to the 30-day deadline for 
removing dated laboratory waste from the laboratory.
    (c) Laboratory waste that is determined to be hazardous waste is no 
longer subject to the provisions of this subpart and must be managed in 
accordance with all applicable provisions of 40 CFR Parts 260 through 
270.
