R315-261-2. Definition of Solid Waste.

(a)(1) A solid waste is any discarded material that is not excluded by Subsection R315-261-4(a) or that is not excluded by variance granted under Sections R315-260-30 and R315-260-31 or that is not excluded by a non-waste determination under Sections R315-260-30 and R315-260-34.

(2)(i) A discarded material is any material which is:

(A) Abandoned, as explained in Subsection R315-261-2(b); or

(B) Recycled, as explained in Subsection R315-261-2(c); or

(C) Considered inherently waste-like, as explained in Subsection R315-261-2(d).

(b) Materials are solid waste if they are abandoned by being:

(1) Disposed of; or

(2) Burned or incinerated; or

(3) Accumulated, stored, or treated, but not recycled, before or in lieu of being abandoned by being disposed of, burned, or incinerated; or

(4) Sham recycled, as explained in Subsection R315-261-2(g)

(c) Materials are solid wastes if they are recycled-or accumulated, stored, or treated before recycling-as specified in Subsections R315-261-2(c)(1) through (4).

(1) Used in a manner constituting disposal.

(i) Materials noted with a "*" in Column 1 of Table 1 are solid wastes when they are:

(A) Applied to or placed on the land in a manner that constitutes disposal; or

(B) Used to produce products that are applied to or placed on the land or are otherwise contained in products that are applied to or placed on the land (in which cases the product itself remains a solid waste).

(ii) However, commercial chemical products listed in Section R315-261-33 are not solid wastes if they are applied to the land and that is their ordinary manner of use.

(2) Burning for energy recovery.

(i) Materials noted with a "*" in column 2 of Table 1 are solid wastes when they are:

(A) Burned to recover energy;

(B) Used to produce a fuel or are otherwise contained in fuels, in which cases the fuel itself remains a solid waste.

(ii) However, commercial chemical products listed in Section R315-261-33 are not solid wastes if they are themselves fuels.

(3) Reclaimed. Materials noted with a "-" in column 3 of Table 1 are not solid wastes when reclaimed. Materials noted with an "*" in column 3 of Table 1 are solid wastes when reclaimed unless they meet the requirements of Subsections R315-261-4(a)(17), or R315-261-4(a)(23), R315-261-4(a)(24) or R35-261-4(a)(27).

Section R315-261-1.

 

(d) Inherently waste-like materials. The following materials are solid wastes when they are recycled in any manner:

(1) Hazardous Waste Nos. F020; F021, unless used as an ingredient to make a product at the site of generation; F022; F023; F026; and F028.

(2) Secondary materials fed to a halogen acid furnace that exhibit a characteristic of a hazardous waste or are listed as a hazardous waste as defined in Sections R315-261-20 through 24 and 30 through 35, except for brominated material that meets the following criteria:

(i) The material shall contain a bromine concentration of at least 45%; and

(ii) The material shall contain less than a total of 1% of toxic organic compounds listed in Rule R315-261 appendix VIII; and

(iii) The material is processed continually on-site in the halogen acid furnace via direct conveyance, hard piping.

(3) The Board shall use the following criteria to add wastes to [the list found in Table 1 of Section R315-261-2]Subsections R315-261-2(d)(1) or (2):

(i)(A) The materials are ordinarily disposed of, burned, or incinerated; or

(B) The materials contain toxic constituents listed in appendix VIII of Rule R315-261 and these constituents are not ordinarily found in raw materials or products for which the materials substitute (or are found in raw materials or products in smaller concentrations) and are not used or reused during the recycling process; and

(ii) The material may pose a substantial hazard to human health and the environment when recycled.

(e) Materials that are not solid waste when recycled.

(1) Materials are not solid wastes when they can be shown to be recycled by being:

(i) Used or reused as ingredients in an industrial process to make a product, provided the materials are not being reclaimed; or

(ii) Used or reused as effective substitutes for commercial products; or

(iii) Returned to the original process from which they are generated, without first being reclaimed or land disposed. The material shall be returned as a substitute for feedstock materials. In cases where the original process to which the material is returned is a secondary process, the materials shall be managed such that there is no placement on the land. In cases where the materials are generated and reclaimed within the primary mineral processing industry, the conditions of the exclusion found at Subsection R315-261-4(a)(17) apply rather than Subsection R315-261-2(e)(1)(iii).

(2) The following materials are solid wastes, even if the recycling involves use, reuse, or return to the original process described in Subsections R315-261-2(e)(1)(i) through (iii):

(i) Materials used in a manner constituting disposal, or used to produce products that are applied to the land; or

(ii) Materials burned for energy recovery, used to produce a fuel, or contained in fuels; or

(iii) Materials accumulated speculatively; or

(iv) Materials listed in Subsections R315-261-2(d)(1) and (d)(2).

(f) Documentation of claims that materials are not solid wastes or are conditionally exempt from regulation. Respondents in actions to enforce rules implementing Sections 19-6-101 through 125 who raise a claim that a certain material is not a solid waste, or is conditionally exempt from regulation, shall demonstrate that there is a known market or disposition for the material, and that they meet the terms of the exclusion or exemption. In doing so, they shall provide appropriate documentation, such as contracts showing that a second person uses the material as an ingredient in a production process, to demonstrate that the material is not a waste, or is exempt from regulation. In addition, owners or operators of facilities claiming that they actually are recycling materials shall show that they have the necessary equipment to do so.

(g) Sham recycling. A hazardous secondary material found to be sham recycled is considered discarded and a solid waste. Sham recycling is recycling that is not legitimate recycling as defined in Section R315-260-43.

 

R315-261-3. Definition of Hazardous Waste .

(a) A solid waste, as defined in Section R315-261-2, is a hazardous waste if:

(1) It is not excluded from regulation as a hazardous waste under Subsection R315-261-4(b); and

(2) It meets any of the following criteria:

(i) It exhibits any of the characteristics of hazardous waste identified in Sections R315-261-20 through 24. However, any mixture of a waste from the extraction, beneficiation, and processing of ores and minerals excluded under Subsection R315-261-4(b)(7) and any other solid waste exhibiting a characteristic of hazardous waste under Sections R315-261-20 through 24 is a hazardous waste only if it exhibits a characteristic that would not have been exhibited by the excluded waste alone if such mixture had not occurred, or if it continues to exhibit any of the characteristics exhibited by the non-excluded wastes prior to mixture. Further, for the purposes of applying the Toxicity Characteristic to such mixtures, the mixture is also a hazardous waste if it exceeds the maximum concentration for any contaminant listed in table 1 to Section R315-261-24 that would not have been exceeded by the excluded waste alone if the mixture had not occurred or if it continues to exceed the maximum concentration for any contaminant exceeded by the nonexempt waste prior to mixture.

(ii) It is listed in Sections R315-261-30 through 35 and has not been excluded from the lists in Sections R315-261-30 through 35 under Sections R315-260-.20 and R315-260-22.

(iii) (Reserved)

(iv) It is a mixture of solid waste and one or more hazardous wastes listed in Sections R315-261-30 through 35 and has not been excluded from Subsection R315-261-3(a)(2) under Sections R315-260-20 and R315-260-22, Subsection R315-261-3(g), or Subsection R315-261-3(h); however, the following mixtures of solid wastes and hazardous wastes listed in Sections R315-261-30 through 35 are not hazardous wastes, except by application of Subsections R315-261-3(a)(2)(i) or (ii), if the generator can demonstrate that the mixture consists of wastewater the discharge of which is subject to regulation under either section 402 or section 307(b) of the Clean Water Act,including wastewater at facilities which have eliminated the discharge of wastewater, and;

(A) One or more of the following spent solvents listed in Section R315-261-31: benzene, carbon tetrachloride, tetrachloroethylene, trichloroethylene or the scrubber waters derived-from the combustion of these spent solvents-Provided, That the maximum total weekly usage of these solvents, other than the amounts that can be demonstrated not to be discharged to wastewater, divided by the average weekly flow of wastewater into the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment or pretreatment system does not exceed 1 part per million, or the total measured concentration of these solvents entering the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment system, at facilities subject to regulation under the Utah Air Conservation Act, or at facilities subject to an enforceable limit in a federal operating permit that minimizes fugitive emissions, does not exceed 1 part per million on an average weekly basis. Any facility that uses benzene as a solvent and claims this exemption shall use an aerated biological wastewater treatment system and shall use only lined surface impoundments or tanks prior to secondary clarification in the wastewater treatment system. Facilities that choose to measure concentration levels shall file a copy of their sampling and analysis plan with the Director. A facility shall file a copy of a revised sampling and analysis plan only if the initial plan is rendered inaccurate by changes in the facility's operations. The sampling and analysis plan shall include the monitoring point location (headworks), the sampling frequency and methodology, and a list of constituents to be monitored. A facility is eligible for the direct monitoring option once they receive confirmation that the sampling and analysis plan has been received by the Director. The Director may reject the sampling and analysis plan if the Director finds that, the sampling and analysis plan fails to include the above information; or the plan parameters would not enable the facility to calculate the weekly average concentration of these chemicals accurately. If the Director rejects the sampling and analysis plan or if the Director finds that the facility is not following the sampling and analysis plan, the Director shall notify the facility to cease the use of the direct monitoring option until such time as the bases for rejection are corrected; or

(B) One or more of the following spent solvents listed in Section R315-261-31: methylene chloride, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, chlorobenzene, o-dichlorobenzene, cresols, cresylic acid, nitrobenzene, toluene, methyl ethyl ketone, carbon disulfide, isobutanol, pyridine, spent chlorofluorocarbon solvents, 2-ethoxyethanol, or the scrubber waters derived-from the combustion of these spent solvents-Provided That the maximum total weekly usage of these solvents, other than the amounts that can be demonstrated not to be discharged to wastewater, divided by the average weekly flow of wastewater into the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment or pretreatment system does not exceed 25 parts per million, or the total measured concentration of these solvents entering the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment system; at facilities subject to regulation under the Utah Air Conservation Act, or at facilities subject to an enforceable limit in a federal operating permit that minimizes fugitive emissions; does not exceed 25 parts per million on an average weekly basis. Facilities that choose to measure concentration levels shall file a copy of their sampling and analysis plan with the Director. A facility shall file a copy of a revised sampling and analysis plan only if the initial plan is rendered inaccurate by changes in the facility's operations. The sampling and analysis plan shall include the monitoring point location (headworks), the sampling frequency and methodology, and a list of constituents to be monitored. A facility is eligible for the direct monitoring option once they receive confirmation that the sampling and analysis plan has been received by the Director. The Director may reject the sampling and analysis plan if the Director finds that, the sampling and analysis plan fails to include the above information; or the plan parameters would not enable the facility to calculate the weekly average concentration of these chemicals accurately. If the Director rejects the sampling and analysis plan or if the Director finds that the facility is not following the sampling and analysis plan, the Director shall notify the facility to cease the use of the direct monitoring option until such time as the bases for rejection are corrected; or

(C) One of the following wastes listed in Section R315-261-32, provided that the wastes are discharged to the refinery oil recovery sewer before primary oil/water/solids separation-heat exchanger bundle cleaning sludge from the petroleum refining industry, EPA Hazardous Waste No. K050; crude oil storage tank sediment from petroleum refining operations, EPA Hazardous Waste No. K169; clarified slurry oil tank sediment and/or in-line filter/separation solids from petroleum refining operations, EPA Hazardous Waste No. K170; spent hydrotreating catalyst, EPA Hazardous Waste No. K171; and spent hydrorefining catalyst, EPA Hazardous Waste No. K172; or

(D) A discarded hazardous waste, commercial chemical product, or chemical intermediate listed in Sections R315-261-31 through R315-261-33, arising from de minimis losses of these materials. For purposes of this Subsection R315-261-3(a)(2)(iv)(D), de minimis losses are inadvertent releases to a wastewater treatment system, including those from normal material handling operations, e.g., spills from the unloading or transfer of materials from bins or other containers, leaks from pipes, valves or other devices used to transfer materials; minor leaks of process equipment, storage tanks or containers; leaks from well maintained pump packings and seals; sample purgings; relief device discharges; discharges from safety showers and rinsing and cleaning of personal safety equipment; and rinsate from empty containers or from containers that are rendered empty by that rinsing. Any manufacturing facility that claims an exemption for de minimis quantities of wastes listed in Sections R315-261-31 through R315-261-32, or any nonmanufacturing facility that claims an exemption for de minimis quantities of wastes listed in Sections R315-261-30 through 35 shall either have eliminated the discharge of wastewaters or have included in its Clean Water Act permit application or submission to its pretreatment control authority the constituents for which each waste was listed in Rule R315-261 appendix VII; and the constituents in the table "Treatment Standards for Hazardous Wastes" in Section R315-268-40 for which each waste has a treatment standard (i.e., Land Disposal Restriction constituents). A facility is eligible to claim the exemption once the permit writer or control authority has been notified of possible de minimis releases via the Clean Water Act permit application or the pretreatment control authority submission. A copy of the Clean Water permit application or the submission to the pretreatment control authority shall be placed in the facility's on-site files; or

(E) Wastewater resulting from laboratory operations containing toxic (T) wastes listed in Sections R315-261-30 through 35, Provided, That the annualized average flow of laboratory wastewater does not exceed one percent of total wastewater flow into the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment or pre-treatment system or provided the wastes, combined annualized average concentration does not exceed one part per million in the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment or pre-treatment facility. Toxic wastes used in laboratories that are demonstrated not to be discharged to wastewater are not to be included in this calculation; or

(F) One or more of the following wastes listed in Section R315-261.32: wastewaters from the production of carbamates and carbamoyl oximes, EPA Hazardous Waste No. K157 - Provided that the maximum weekly usage of formaldehyde, methyl chloride, methylene chloride, and triethylamine, including all amounts that cannot be demonstrated to be reacted in the process, destroyed through treatment, or is recovered, i.e., what is discharged or volatilized, divided by the average weekly flow of process wastewater prior to any dilution into the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment system does not exceed a total of 5 parts per million by weight or the total measured concentration of these chemicals entering the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment system (at facilities subject to regulation under the Utah Air Conservation Act, or at facilities subject to an enforceable limit in a federal operating permit that minimizes fugitive emissions), does not exceed 5 parts per million on an average weekly basis. Facilities that choose to measure concentration levels shall file copy of their sampling and analysis plan with the Director. A facility shall file a copy of a revised sampling and analysis plan only if the initial plan is rendered inaccurate by changes in the facility's operations. The sampling and analysis plan shall include the monitoring point location (headworks), the sampling frequency and methodology, and a list of constituents to be monitored. A facility is eligible for the direct monitoring option once they receive confirmation that the sampling and analysis plan has been received by the Director. The Director may reject the sampling and analysis plan if the Director finds that, the sampling and analysis plan fails to include the above information; or the plan parameters would not enable the facility to calculate the weekly average concentration of these chemicals accurately. If the Director rejects the sampling and analysis plan or if the Director finds that the facility is not following the sampling and analysis plan, the Director shall notify the facility to cease the use of the direct monitoring option until such time as the bases for rejection are corrected; or

(G) Wastewaters derived-from the treatment of one or more of the following wastes listed in Section R315-261-32:organic waste, including heavy ends, still bottoms, light ends, spent solvents, filtrates, and decantates, from the production of carbamates and carbamoyl oximes, EPA Hazardous Waste No. K156. Provided, that the maximum concentration of formaldehyde, methyl chloride, methylene chloride, and triethylamine prior to any dilutions into the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment system does not exceed a total of 5 milligrams per liter or the total measured concentration of these chemicals entering the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment system (at facilities subject to regulation under the Utah Air Conservation Act, or at facilities subject to an enforceable limit in a federal operating permit that minimizes fugitive emissions), does not exceed 5 milligrams per liter on an average weekly basis. Facilities that choose to measure concentration levels shall file copy of their sampling and analysis plan with the Director. A facility shall file a copy of a revised sampling and analysis plan only if the initial plan is rendered inaccurate by changes in the facility's operations. The sampling and analysis plan shall include the monitoring point location (headworks), the sampling frequency and methodology, and a list of constituents to be monitored. A facility is eligible for the direct monitoring option once they receive confirmation that the sampling and analysis plan has been received by the Director. The Director may reject the sampling and analysis plan if the Director finds that, the sampling and analysis plan fails to include the above information; or the plan parameters would not enable the facility to calculate the weekly average concentration of these chemicals accurately. If the Director rejects the sampling and analysis plan or if the Director finds that the facility is not following the sampling and analysis plan, the Director shall notify the facility to cease the use of the direct monitoring option until such time as the bases for rejection are corrected.

(v) Rebuttable presumption for used oil. Used oil containing more than 1000 ppm total halogens is presumed to be a hazardous waste because it has been mixed with halogenated hazardous waste listed in Sections R315-261-30 through 35. Persons may rebut this presumption by demonstrating that the used oil does not contain hazardous waste; for example, to show that the used oil does not contain significant concentrations of halogenated hazardous constituents listed in appendix VIII of Rule R315-261.

(A) The rebuttable presumption does not apply to metalworking oils/fluids containing chlorinated paraffins, if they are processed, through a tolling agreement, to reclaim metalworking oils/fluids. The presumption does apply to metalworking oils/fluids if such oils/fluids are recycled in any other manner, or disposed.

(B) The rebuttable presumption does not apply to used oils contaminated with chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) removed from refrigeration units where the CFCs are destined for reclamation. The rebuttable presumption does apply to used oils contaminated with CFCs that have been mixed with used oil from sources other than refrigeration units.

(b) A solid waste which is not excluded from regulation under Subsection R315-261-3(a)(1) becomes a hazardous waste when any of the following events occur:

(1) In the case of a waste listed in Sections R315-261-30 through 35, when the waste first meets the listing description set forth in R315-261-30 through 35.

(2) In the case of a mixture of solid waste and one or more listed hazardous wastes, when a hazardous waste listed in R315-261-30 through 35 is first added to the solid waste.

(3) In the case of any other waste, including a waste mixture, when the waste exhibits any of the characteristics identified in Sections R315-261-20 through 24.

(c) Unless and until it meets the criteria of Subsection R315-261-3(d):

(1) A hazardous waste shall remain a hazardous waste.

(2)(i) Except as otherwise provided in Subsections R315-261-3(c)(2)(ii), or (g), any solid waste generated from the treatment, storage, or disposal of a hazardous waste, including any sludge, spill residue, ash emission control dust, or leachate, but not including precipitation run-off, is a hazardous waste. However, materials that are reclaimed from solid wastes and that are used beneficially are not solid wastes and hence are not hazardous wastes under this provision unless the reclaimed material is burned for energy recovery or used in a manner constituting disposal.

(ii) The following solid wastes are not hazardous even though they are generated from the treatment, storage, or disposal of a hazardous waste, unless they exhibit one or more of the characteristics of hazardous waste:

(A) Waste pickle liquor sludge generated by lime stabilization of spent pickle liquor from the iron and steel industry, SIC Codes 331 and 332.

(B) Waste from burning any of the materials exempted from regulation by Subsection R315-261-6(a)(3)(iii) and (iv).

(C)(I) Nonwastewater residues, such as slag, resulting from high temperature metals recovery processing of K061, K062 or F006 waste, in units identified as rotary kilns, flame reactors, electric furnaces, plasma arc furnaces, slag reactors, rotary hearth furnace/electric furnace combinations or industrial furnaces, as defined in Section R315-260-10, that are disposed in solid waste landfills regulated under Rules R315-301 through R315-320, provided that these residues meet the generic exclusion levels identified in the tables below for all constituents, and exhibit no characteristics of hazardous waste. Testing requirements shall be incorporated in a facility's waste analysis plan or a generator's self-implementing waste analysis plan; at a minimum, composite samples of residues shall be collected and analyzed quarterly and/or when the process or operation generating the waste changes. Persons claiming this exclusion in an enforcement action shall have the burden of proving by clear and convincing evidence that the material meets all of the exclusion requirements.

(2) A one-time notification and certification shall be placed in the facility's files and sent to the Director for K061, K062 or F006 high temperature metals recovery residues that meet the generic exclusion levels for all constituents and do not exhibit any characteristics that are sent to solid waste landfills regulated under Rules R315-301 through R315-320. The notification and certification that is placed in the generators or treaters files shall be updated if the process or operation generating the waste changes and/or if the landfill receiving the waste changes. However, the generator or treater need only notify the Director on an annual basis if such changes occur. Such notification and certification should be sent to the Director by the end of the calendar year, but no later than December 31. The notification shall include the following information: [ ]The name and address of the solid waste landfill regulated under Rules R315-301 through R315-320 receiving the waste shipments; the EPA Hazardous Waste Number(s) and treatability group(s) at the initial point of generation; and, the treatment standards applicable to the waste at the initial point of generation. The certification shall be signed by an authorized representative and shall state as follows: "I certify under penalty of law that the generic exclusion levels for all constituents have been met without impermissible dilution and that no characteristic of hazardous waste is exhibited. I am aware that there are significant penalties for submitting a false certification, including the possibility of fine and imprisonment."

(D) Biological treatment sludge from the treatment of one of the following wastes listed in Section R315-261-32: organic waste (including heavy ends, still bottoms, light ends, spent solvents, filtrates, and decantates) from the production of carbamates and carbamoyl oximes, EPA Hazardous Waste No. K156, and wastewaters from the production of carbamates and carbamoyl oximes, EPA Hazardous Waste No. K157.

(E) Catalyst inert support media separated from one of the following wastes listed in Section R315-261-32: - Spent hydrotreating catalyst, EPA Hazardous Waste No. K171), and Spent hydrorefining catalyst (EPA Hazardous Waste No. K172.

(d) Any solid waste described in Subsection R315-261-3(c) is not a hazardous waste if it meets the following criteria:

(1) In the case of any solid waste, it does not exhibit any of the characteristics of hazardous waste identified in Sections R315-261-20 through 24. However, wastes that exhibit a characteristic at the point of generation may still be subject to the requirements of Rule R315-268, even if they no longer exhibit a characteristic at the point of land disposal.
