Sec. 266.360  If you lose the transportation and disposal conditional 
exemption for a waste, can the exemption be reclaimed?

    (a) You may reclaim the transportation and disposal exemption for a 
waste after you have received a return receipt confirming that we have 
received your notification of the loss of the exemption specified in 
Sec. 266.355(a) and if:
    (1) You again meet the conditions specified in Sec. 266.315 for the 
waste; and
    (2) You send a notice, by certified delivery, to us that you are 
reclaiming the exemption for the waste. Your notice must be signed by 
your authorized representative certifying that the information provided 
is true, accurate, and complete. The notice must:
    (i) Explain the circumstances of each failure.
    (ii) Certify that each failure that caused you to lose the exemption 
for the waste has been corrected and that you again meet all conditions 
for the waste as of the date you specify.
    (iii) Describe plans you have implemented, listing the specific 
steps that you have taken, to ensure that conditions will be met in the 
future.
    (iv) Include any other information you want us to consider when we 
review your notice reclaiming the exemption.
    (b) We may terminate a reclaimed conditional exemption if we find 
that your claim is inappropriate based on factors including, but not 
limited to: you have failed to correct the problem;

you explained the circumstances of the failure unsatisfactorily; or you 
failed to implement a plan with steps to prevent another failure to meet 
the conditions of Sec. 266.315. In reviewing a reclaimed conditional 
exemption under this section, we may add conditions to the exemption to 
ensure that transportation and disposal activities will protect human 
health and the environment.
