Except as specified in ch. NR 673, the wastes listed in this section are exempt from regulation under chs. NR 662 to 667 and 670 and ss. NR 668.07 and 668.50 and, therefore, are not fully regulated as hazardous waste. The wastes listed in this section are subject to regulation under ch. NR 673:
(1) Batteries as described in s. NR 673.02.
(2) Pesticides as described in s. NR 673.03.
(3) Mercury-containing equipment as described in s. NR 673.04.
(4) Lamps as described in s. NR 673.05.
The additional language used in this section clarifies that LDR treatment standards apply to universal waste. This language is not more stringent than 40 CFR 261.9.
