Title 40: Protection of Environment
CHAPTER I: ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (CONTINUED)
SUBCHAPTER I: SOLID WASTES (CONTINUED)
PART 260: HAZARDOUS WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM: GENERAL
Subpart C: Rulemaking Petitions
260.31 - Standards and criteria for variances from classification as a solid waste.
(a) The Administrator may grant requests for a variance from classifying as a solid waste
those materials that are accumulated speculatively without sufficient amounts being recycled
if the applicant demonstrates that sufficient amounts of the material will be recycled or
transferred for recycling in the following year. If a variance is granted, it is valid only for the
following year, but can be renewed, on an annual basis, by filing a new application. The
Administrator's decision will be based on the following criteria:
(1) The manner in which the material is expected to be recycled, when the material is
expected to be recycled, and whether this expected disposition is likely to occur (for
example, because of past practice, market factors, the nature of the material, or contractual
arrangements for recycling);

(2) The reason that the applicant has accumulated the material for one or more years
without recycling 75 percent of the volume accumulated at the beginning of the year;
(3) The quantity of material already accumulated and the quantity expected to be generated
and accumulated before the material is recycled;
(4) The extent to which the material is handled to minimize loss;
(5) Other relevant factors.
(b) The Administrator may grant requests for a variance from classifying as a solid waste
those materials that are reclaimed and then reused as feedstock within the original
production process in which the materials were generated if the reclamation operation is an
essential part of the production process. This determination will be based on the following
criteria:

(1) How economically viable the production process would be if it were to use virgin
materials, rather than reclaimed materials;

(3) The time periods between generating the material and its reclamation, and between
reclamation and return to the original primary production process;
(4) The location of the reclamation operation in relation to the production process;
(5) Whether the reclaimed material is used for the purpose for which it was originally produced when it is returned to the original process, and
whether it is returned to the process in substantially its original form;
(6) Whether the person who generates the material also reclaims it;
(7) Other relevant factors.
(c) The Regional Administrator may grant requests for a variance from classifying as a solid waste those materials that have been reclaimed but
must be reclaimed further before recovery is completed if, after initial reclamation, the resulting material is commodity-like (even though it is
not yet a commercial product, and has to be reclaimed further). This determination will be based on the following factors:
(1) The degree of processing the material has undergone and the degree of further processing that is required;
(2) The value of the material after it has been reclaimed;
(3) The degree to which the reclaimed material is like an analogous raw material;
(4) The extent to which an end market for the reclaimed material is guaranteed;
(5) The extent to which the reclaimed material is handled to minimize loss;
(6) Other relevant factors.
