Current through August 26, 2024

Except as provided in subs. (1) to (3), generators shall ensure that their used oil is transported only by transporters who have obtained EPA identification numbers.

(1) SELF-TRANSPORTATION OF SMALL AMOUNTS TO COLLECTION CENTERS. Generators may transport, without an EPA identification number or department solid waste collection and transportation service license, used oil that is generated at the generator's site and used oil collected from household do-it-yourselfers to a used oil collection center if all of the following conditions are met:

(a) The generator transports the used oil in a vehicle owned by the generator or owned by an employee of the generator.

(b) The generator transports no more than 55 gallons of used oil at any time.

(2) SELF-TRANSPORTATION OF SMALL AMOUNTS TO AGGREGATION POINTS OWNED BY THE GENERATOR. Generators may transport, without an EPA identification number or department solid waste collection and transportation service license, used oil that is generated at the generator's site to an aggregation point if all of the following conditions are met:

(a) The generator transports the used oil in a vehicle owned by the generator or owned by an employee of the generator.

(b) The generator transports no more than 55 gallons of used oil at any time.

(c) The generator transports the used oil to an aggregation point that is owned or operated by the same generator.

(3) TOLLING ARRANGEMENTS. Used oil generators may arrange for used oil to be transported by a transporter without an EPA identification number if the used oil is reclaimed under a contractual agreement pursuant to which reclaimed oil is returned by the processor or re-refiner to the generator for use as a lubricant, cutting oil or coolant. The contract (known as a "tolling arrangement") shall indicate all of the following:

(a) The type of used oil and the frequency of shipments.

(b) That the vehicle used to transport the used oil to the processing or re-refining facility and to deliver recycled used oil back to the generator is owned and operated by the used oil processor or re-refiner.

(c) That reclaimed oil will be returned to the generator.
