Current through Vol. 41, No. 13, March 15, 2024
(a) Upon request, and with supporting documentation, the DEQ may make a determination that a waste material is not a solid waste when it can be shown that the material is:
(1) being used as an ingredient in an
industrial process to make a product;
(2) used as an effective substitute for
commercial products;
(3) being
returned to the original process from which it is generated, without first
being reclaimed. The material must be returned as a substitute for raw material
feed-stock and the process must use raw materials as principal feed-stocks;
or
(4) in the possession of persons
who actually possess the equipment necessary to process the material to comply
with one of the above conditions.
(b) The DEQ may also make a reuse determination on other proposals based upon an evaluation of the contemplated use of the material and potential effects on human health and the environment.
(c) If waste is accumulated in anticipation of future markets or is stored in a quantity exceeding that which may be reasonably expected to be used or recycled within one (1) year, the material is regulated as a solid waste.
