(1) when Class 1 waste is itemized on the manifest, either the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality solid waste registration (SWR) number or the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) identification number must identify the generator, transporter, and designated facility; and the Texas waste code, instead of the EPA waste code, must identify the waste;
(2) when both hazardous and Class 1 waste are itemized on the same manifest, the EPA identification numbers, not SWR numbers, must identify the generator, transporter, and designated facility; and the Texas waste codes must identify each waste itemized on the manifest;
(3) the term "Designated facility" has the meaning in §
335.1 of this title (relating to Definitions);
(4) the term "Hazardous waste" is replaced by the term "Class 1 waste";
