10 CSR 25-4.261 - Methods for Identifying Hazardous Waste

PURPOSE: All of the rules in Title 10, Division 25 relating to hazardous waste generators, permitted hazardous waste facilities, and hazardous waste transporters were reviewed as part of the department's Red Tape Reduction initiative for the purpose of reducing regulations that unnecessarily burden individuals and businesses while doing little to protect or improve public health and safety and our natural resources. The purpose of this amendment is to make changes consistent with this initiative to this rule.

(1) The regulations set forth in 40 CFR part 261, July 1, 2013, as published by the Office of the Federal Register, National Archives and Records Administration, Superintendent of Documents, Pittsburgh, PA 15250-7954, and the changes made at 78 FR 46447, July 31, 2013, 80 FR 1693, January 13, 2015, and 83 FR 24664, May 30, 2018, are incorporated by reference, except for the changes made at 55 FR 50450, December 6, 1990, 56 FR 27332, June 13, 1991, 60 FR 7366, February 7, 1995, 63 FR 33823, June 19, 1998, 70 FR 53453, September 8, 2005, and 73 FR 77954, December 19, 2008. 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. Where conflicting rules exist in 10 CSR 25, the more stringent rules control.
(2) This section sets forth specific modifications of the regulations incorporated in section (1) of this rule. A person subject to identifying a hazardous waste shall comply with this section as it modifies 40 CFR part 261 as incorporated in this rule. (Comment: This section has been organized in order that all Missouri additions, changes, or deletions to any subpart of the federal regulation are noted within the corresponding subsection of this section. For example, changes to 40 CFR part 261 subpart A will be located in subsection (2)(A) of this rule.)
