Chapter NR 661 - Hazardous Waste Identification And Listing
Subchapter E - Exclusions/Exemptions
Section NR 661.0040 - Conditional exclusion for used, intact cathode ray tubes exported for recycling

Used, intact CRTs exported for recycling are not solid wastes if they meet the notice and consent conditions specified in s. NR 661.0039(1) (e), and if they are not speculatively accumulated as defined in s. NR 661.0001(3) (h).

The requirements under s. NR 661.0040 are based on 40 CFR 261.40 and are administered by EPA and not the department because the exercise of foreign relations and international commerce powers is reserved to the federal government under the U.S. Constitution. Wisconsin has adopted these requirements into its rules for the convenience of the regulated community and for completeness. The enforcement of the 40 CFR 261.40 requirements remains EPA's responsibility even though Wisconsin has adopted these requirements into its rules. Wisconsin provides EPA with information on whether Wisconsin facilities designated to receive hazardous waste imports are authorized to manage specific wastes and in ensuring facility compliance with all applicable environmental laws and rules.
