a) Removing containers of unwanted material
on a regular schedule. An eligible academic entity must do either of the
following:
1) It must remove all containers
of unwanted material from each laboratory on a regular interval, not to exceed
12 months; or
2) It must remove
containers of unwanted material from each laboratory within 12 months after
each container's accumulation start date.
b) The eligible academic entity must specify
in Part I of its Laboratory Management Plan whether it will comply with
subsection (a)(1) or (a)(2) for the regular removal of unwanted material from
its laboratories.
c) The eligible
academic entity must specify in Part II of its Laboratory Management Plan how
it will comply with subsection (a)(1) or (a)(2) and how the eligible academic
entity will develop a schedule for regular removals of unwanted material from
its laboratories.
d) Removing
containers of unwanted material when volumes are exceeded.
1) If a laboratory accumulates a total volume
of unwanted material (including reactive acutely hazardous unwanted material)
in excess of 55 gallons (208 l) before the regularly scheduled removal, the
eligible academic entity must ensure that the following requirements are
fulfilled for all containers of unwanted material in the laboratory (including
reactive acutely hazardous unwanted material):
A) The containers are marked on the label
that is associated with the container (or on the label that is affixed or
attached to the container, if that is preferred) with the date on which 55
gallons (208 [SCRIPT SMALL]) was exceeded; and
B) The containers are removed from the
laboratory within 10 calendar days after the date on which 55 gallons (208
[SCRIPT SMALL]) was exceeded, or on the date of the next regularly scheduled
removal, whichever comes first.
2) If a laboratory accumulates more than one
quart (0.946 [SCRIPT SMALL]) of liquid reactive acutely hazardous unwanted
material or more than 1 kg (2.2 lbs) of solid reactive acutely hazardous
unwanted material before the regularly scheduled removal, then the eligible
academic entity must ensure that the following requirements are fulfilled for
all containers of reactive acutely hazardous unwanted material:
A) The containers are marked on the label
that is associated with the container (or on the label that is affixed or
attached to the container, if that is preferred) with the date on which one
quart (0.946 [SCRIPT SMALL]) or 1 kg was exceeded; and
B) The containers are removed from the
laboratory within 10 calendar days after the date on which one quart (0.946
[SCRIPT SMALL]) or 1 kg was exceeded, or at the next regularly scheduled
removal, whichever comes first.
