Appendix to Part 262--Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest and Instructions (EPA Forms 8700-22 and 8700-22A and Their Instructions) Authority: 42 U.S.C 6906, 6912, 6922-6925, 6937, and 6938. Source: 45 FR 33142, May 19, 1980, unless otherwise noted. (a) These regulations establish standards for generators of hazardous waste. (b) 40 CFR 261.5(c) and (d) must be used to determine the applicability of provisions of this part that are dependent on calculations of the quantity of hazardous waste generated per month. (c) A generator who treats, stores, or disposes of hazardous waste on-site must only comply with the following sections of this part with respect to [[Page 200]] that waste: Section 262.11 for determining whether or not he has a hazardous waste, Sec. 262.12 for obtaining an EPA identification number, Sec. 262.34 for accumulation of hazardous waste, Sec. 262.40 (c) and (d) for recordkeeping, Sec. 262.43 for additional reporting, and if applicable, Sec. 262.70 for farmers. (d) Any person who exports or imports hazardous waste subject to the Federal manifesting requirements of part 262, or subject to the universal waste management standards of 40 CFR Part 273, or subject to State requirements analogous to 40 CFR Part 273, to or from the countries listed in Sec. 262.58(a)(1) for recovery must comply with subpart H of this part. (e) Any person who imports hazardous waste into the United States must comply with the standards applicable to generators established in this part. (f) A farmer who generates waste pesticides which are hazardous waste and who complies with all of the requirements of Sec. 262.70 is not required to comply with other standards in this part or 40 CFR parts 270, 264, 265, or 268 with respect to such pesticides. (g) A person who generates a hazardous waste as defined by 40 CFR part 261 is subject to the compliance requirements and penalties prescribed in section 3008 of the Act if he does not comply with the requirements of this part. (h) An owner or operator who initiates a shipment of hazardous waste from a treatment, storage, or disposal facility must comply with the generator standards established in this part. (i) Persons responding to an explosives or munitions emergency in accordance with 40 CFR 264.1(g)(8)(i)(D) or (iv) or 265.1(c)(11)(i)(D) or (iv), and 270.1(c)(3)(i)(D) or (iii) are not required to comply with the standards of this part. (j) (1) Universities that are participating in the Laboratory XL project are the University of Massachusetts Boston in Boston, Massachusetts, Boston College in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, and the University of Vermont in Burlington, Vermont (``Universities''). The Universities generate laboratory wastes (as defined in Sec. 262.102), some of which will be hazardous wastes. As long as the Universities comply with all the requirements of subpart J of this part the Universities' laboratories that are participating in the University Laboratories XL Project as identified in Table 1 of this section, are not subject to the provisions of Sec. Sec. 262.11, 262.34(c), 40 CFR Parts 264 and 265, and the permit requirements of 40 CFR Part 270 with respect to said laboratory wastes.

Such written notice will be provided at least ten days prior to the effective date of any such changes. [[Page 201]] (k) Generators in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts may comply with the State regulations regarding Class A recyclable materials in 310 C.M.R. 30.200, when authorized by the EPA under 40 CFR part 271, with respect to those recyclable materials and matters covered by the authorization, instead of complying with the hazardous waste accumulation requirements of Sec. 262.34, the reporting requirements of Sec. 262.41, the storage facility operator requirements of 40 CFR parts 264 and 265 and the permitting requirements of 40 CFR part 270. Such generators must also comply with any other applicable requirements, including any applicable authorized State regulations governing hazardous wastes not being recycled and any applicable Federal requirements which are being directly implemented by the EPA within Massachusetts pursuant to the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984. Note 1: The provisions of Sec. 262.34 are applicable to the on-site accumulation of hazardous waste by generators. Therefore, the provisions of Sec. 262.34 only apply to owners or operators who are shipping hazardous waste which they generated at that facility. Note 2: A generator who treats, stores, or disposes of hazardous waste on-site must comply with the applicable standards and permit requirements set forth in 40 CFR parts 264, 265, 266, 268, and 270.
