Subchapter R - WASTE CLASSIFICATION
Section 335.512 - Executive Director Review
Current through Reg. 50, No. 13; March 28, 2025
(a) The executive director may review the generator's classification of any waste to determine if it is appropriately classified. If the executive director determines that a waste has been classified incorrectly according to the standards set forth in this subchapter, or if the executive director determines that extenuating circumstances that may result in threat of harm to human health or the environment warrant an upgrading of the classification, the executive director may reclassify the waste to the more stringently regulated classification. The executive director shall provide the generator with written notice of his determination and reclassification.
(b) A person who believes that the executive director staff has inappropriately classified a waste pursuant to this section may appeal that decision. The person shall file an appeal directly with the executive director requesting a review of the waste classification. If the person is not satisfied with the decision of the executive director on the appeal, the person may request an evidentiary hearing to determine the appropriateness of the classification by filing a request for hearing with the commission.
