Rule 312.

(1) A generator who is a large quantity generator for at least 1 month of an odd-numbered year, the reporting year, who ships any hazardous waste off-site to a treatment, storage, or disposal facility within the United States shall complete and submit EPA Form 8700-13 A/B to the director or the director's designee by March 1 of the following even-numbered year and cover generator activities during the previous year.

This requirement also applies to large quantity generators that receive hazardous waste from very small quantity generators under R 299.9307(6).

(3) Exports of hazardous waste to foreign countries are not required on EPA Form-8700-13-A/B. A separate annual report requirement is set forth in 40 CFR 262.83(g) for hazardous waste exporters.

(a) Contact the transporter or the owner or operator of the designated facility to determine the status of the hazardous waste.

(b) If the generator has not obtained confirmation that the manifest with the handwritten signature of the owner or operator of the designated facility within 45 days of the date the waste was accepted by the initial transporter, then the generator shall submit an exception report to the director, or his or her designee, and the EPA regional administrator for the region in which the generator is located. The exception report must include both of the following:

(i) A legible copy of the manifest for which the generator does not have confirmation of delivery.

(6) For rejected shipments of hazardous waste, the time frames referenced in subrules (4) and (5) of this rule begin the date the waste was accepted by the initial transporter forwarding the hazardous waste shipment from the designated facility to the alternate facility.

(7) A generator shall furnish periodic reports of hazardous waste generated, stored, transferred, treated, disposed of, or transported for treatment, storage, or disposal required by the director or the directors designee.
