(A) The waste or category of waste, as
generated by a wide variety of generators, is listed in rules
3745-51-30 to
3745-51-35 of the Administrative
Code, or, if not listed, a proportion of the waste stream exhibits one or more
characteristics of
hazardous waste identified in rules
3745-51-20 to
3745-51-24 of the Administrative
Code. [When a characteristic waste is added to Chapter 3745-273 of the
Administrative Code by using a generic name to identify the waste category

packaging, marking, and labeling practices) would ensure close stewardship of
the waste
;
.

3745-273-52 of the
Administrative Code;
and/or
and applicable
department of transportation requirements in 49 CFR Parts
100 to
185) would be
protective of human health and the environment during accumulation and
transport
;
.
(F)
Regulation of the waste or category of waste under Chapter 3745-273 of the
Administrative Code
will increase
increases the likelihood that the waste
will be
is
diverted from non-
hazardous waste management systems (e.g., the municipal waste
stream, non-hazardous industrial or commercial waste stream, municipal sewer or
stormwater systems) to
recycling,
treatment, or disposal which are in
compliance with Chapter 3734. of the Revised Code.
(G) Regulation of the waste or category of
waste under Chapter 3745-273 of the Administrative Code will improve

program
; and/or
