Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 9, September 20, 2024
A. Effective April 20, 1999, the following wastes are prohibited from land disposal: the wastes specified in LAC 33:V.Chapter 49 as EPA Hazardous Waste Numbers D004-D011 that are newly identified (i.e., wastes, soil, or debris identified as hazardous by the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure, but not the extraction procedure) and waste, soil, or debris from mineral processing operations that is identified as hazardous by the specifications in LAC 33:V.Chapter 49.
B. Effective April 20, 1999, the following waste is prohibited from land disposal: slag from secondary lead smelting which exhibits the toxicity characteristic due to the presence of one or more metals.
C. Effective May 26, 2000, the following wastes are prohibited from land disposal: newly identified characteristic wastes from elemental phosphorus processing; radioactive wastes mixed with EPA Hazardous Waste Numbers D004-D011 that are newly identified (i.e., wastes, soil, or debris identified as hazardous by the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure, but not the extraction procedure); or mixed with newly identified characteristic mineral processing wastes, soil, or debris.
D. Between April 20, 1999 and May 26, 2000, newly identified characteristic wastes from elemental phosphorus processing, radioactive waste mixed with EPA hazardous waste numbers D004-D011, wastes that are newly identified (i.e., wastes, soil, or debris identified as hazardous by the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure, but not the extraction procedure) or mixed with newly identified characteristic mineral processing wastes, soil, or debris may be disposed in a landfill or surface impoundment only if such unit is in compliance with the requirements specified in 40 CFR 268.5(h).
E. The requirements of Subsections A and B of this Section do not apply if:
F. To determine whether a hazardous waste identified in this Section exceeds the applicable treatment standards specified in LAC 33:V.2223, 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 (including underlying hazardous constituents in characteristic wastes) in excess of the applicable universal treatment standard levels of LAC 33:V.2233, the waste is prohibited from land disposal, and all requirements of this Chapter are applicable, except as otherwise specified.
