    (a) General. For the purposes of this Subpart, a waste is considered 
hazardous under U.S. national procedures, and hence subject to this

at 40 CFR part 262, subpart B, to the universal waste management 
standards of 40 CFR part 273, or to State requirements analogous to 40 
CFR part 273.
    (b) If a waste is hazardous under paragraph (a) of this section and 
it appears on the amber or red list, it is subject to amber- or red-list 
requirements respectively;
    (c) If a waste is hazardous under paragraph (a) of this section and 
it does not appear on either amber or red lists, it is subject to red-
list requirements.
    (d) The appropriate control procedures for hazardous wastes and 
hazardous waste mixtures are addressed in Sec. 262.82.
