PURPOSE: This rule sets forth standards for transporters of hazardous waste, incorporates 40 CFR part 263 and certain regulations in 49 CFR by reference, and sets forth additional state standards. PUBLISHER’S NOTE: The secretary of state has determined that the publication of the entire text of the material which is incorporated by reference as a portion of this rule would be unduly cumbersome or expensive. This material as incorporated by reference in this rule shall be maintained by the agency at its headquarters and shall be made available to the public for inspection and copying at no more than the actual cost of reproduction. This note applies only to the reference material. The entire text of the rule is printed here.

1. (1) The regulations set forth in 40 CFR part 263, July 1, 2013; 49 CFR parts 171–180, November 1, 1990, and December 1, 1997; and 49 CFR parts 40, 383, 387, 390–397, October 1, 1990, and October 1, 1997, as published by the Office of the Federal Register, National Archives and Records Administration, Superintendent of Documents, Pittsburgh, PA 15250-7954, are incorporated by reference, except for 49 CFR 390.3(f)(2), which is not incorporated by reference. This rule does not incorporate any subsequent amendments or additions. Except as provided otherwise in this rule, the substitution of terms set forth in 10 CSR 25-3.260(1)(A) applies in this rule in addition to any other modifications set forth in section (2) of this rule except that the modifications do not apply to the 49 CFR parts incorporated in this rule. Where conflicting rules exist in 10 CSR 25, the more stringent rules control.

2. (2) A hazardous waste transporter shall comply with the requirements of this section in addition to those set forth in section (1). Any reference to a 40 CFR cite in this section means as that provision is incorporated in 10 CSR 25. (Comment: This section has been organized in order within the corresponding subsection of this section. For example, the additional requirements being added to 40 CFR part 263 subpart A are found in subsection (2)(A).)

containment system designed and operated to drain and remove liquids resulting from leaks, spills, or precipitation, unless the containers are elevated or are otherwise protected from contact with accumulated liquids;

1. (III) With a capacity equal to ten

percent (10%) of the containerized waste volume or the volume of the largest container, whichever is greater (Containers that do not contain free liquids need not be considered in this calculation.);

1. (IV) With run-on into the contain-

ment system prevented unless the collection system has sufficient excess capacity in addition to that specified in part (2)(A)10.D.(I) of this rule to contain any run-on which might enter the system; and

identified in E of this section from sources of ignition or reaction including, but not limited to, open flames, smoking, cutting and welding, hot surfaces, frictional heat, sparks (static, electrical, or mechanical), spontaneous ignition (that is, from heat-producing chemical reactions), and radiant heat.

waste is being handled, confine smoking and open flame to specially designated locations.

1. (IV) Conspicuously place No

Smoking signs wherever there is a hazard from ignitable or reactive waste;

1. F. Preparedness and prevention. A

transporter shall equip the transfer station as specified in 40 CFR 265.32 incorporated by reference in 10 CSR 25-7.265(1). In addition, a transporter shall also provide safety equipment such as fire blankets, gas masks, and self-contained breathing apparatus unless the hazards posed by the type of waste managed does not warrant using this additional safety equipment;

1. G. Closure. At closure of the storage

area, a transporter shall remove and properly dispose of all hazardous waste and hazardous residues. For the purpose of this subparagraph, closure shall occur when the storage of hazardous wastes has not occurred, or is not expected to occur for one (1) year, or when the transporter’s license lapses, whichever first occurs;

1. H. The contents of separate contain-

ers of hazardous waste may not be combined at a transfer facility. Individual lab packed containers may be placed in a larger container if, when containers are overpacked, the transporter affixes labels to the overpack con- 10 CSR 25-6
