    (a) Effective August 11, 1997, the following wastes are prohibited

Hazardous Waste numbers F032, F034, and F035.
    (b) Effective May 12, 1999, the following wastes are prohibited from 
land disposal: soil and debris contaminated with F032, F034, F035; and 
radioactive wastes mixed with EPA Hazardous waste numbers F032, F034, 
and F035.
    (c) Between May 12, 1997 and May 12, 1999, soil and debris 
contaminated with F032, F034, F035; and radioactive waste mixed with 
F032, F034, and F035 may be disposed in a landfill or surface 
impoundment only if such unit is in compliance with the requirements 
specified in Sec. 268.5(h)(2) of this part.
    (d) The requirements of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section do 
not apply if:
    (1) The wastes meet the applicable treatment standards specified in 
Subpart D of this part;
    (2) Persons have been granted an exemption from a prohibition 
pursuant to a petition under Sec. 268.6, with respect to those wastes 
and units covered by the petition;
    (3) The wastes meet the applicable alternate treatment standards 
established pursuant to a petition granted under Sec. 268.44; or
    (4) Persons have been granted an extension to the effective date of 
a prohibition pursuant to Sec. 268.5, with respect to those wastes 
covered by the extension.
    (e) To determine whether a hazardous waste identified in this 
section exceeds the applicable treatment standards specified in 
Sec. 268.40, the initial generator must test a sample of the waste 
extract or the entire waste, depending on whether the treatment 
standards are expressed as concentrations in the waste extract or the 
waste, or the generator may use knowledge of the waste. If the waste 
contains constituents in excess of the applicable Universal Treatment 
Standard levels of Sec. 268.48 of this part, the waste is prohibited 
from land disposal, and all requirements of part 268 are applicable, 
except as otherwise specified.
