Illinois Administrative Code › Title 35 - ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION › Part 721 - IDENTIFICATION AND LISTING OF HAZARDOUS WASTE › Subpart A - GENERAL PROVISIONS › Section 721.106 - Requirements for Recyclable Materials

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 28, July 12, 2024
a) Recyclable Materials
1) Hazardous wastes that are recycled are
				subject to the requirements for generators, transporters, and storage
				facilities of subsections (b) and (c), except for the materials listed in
				subsections (a)(2) and (a)(3). Hazardous wastes that are recycled will be known
				as "recyclable materials".
2) The
				following recyclable materials are not subject to the requirements of this
				Section but are regulated under Subparts C through H of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 726
				and all applicable provisions in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 702, 703, and 728.
A) Recyclable materials used in a manner
				constituting disposal (see Subpart C of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 726);
B) Hazardous wastes burned (as defined in 35
				Ill. Adm. Code
				726.200(a)
				) in boilers and industrial furnaces that are not regulated under Subpart O of
				35 Ill. Adm. Code 724 or Subpart O (see Subpart H of 35 Ill. Adm. Code
				726);
C) Recyclable materials from
				which precious metals are reclaimed (see Subpart F of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 726);
				and
D) Spent lead-acid batteries
				that are being reclaimed (see Subpart G of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 726).
3) The following recyclable
				materials are not subject to regulation under 35 Ill. Adm. Code 722 through
				728, or 702 and 703 and are not subject to the notification requirements of
				section 3010 of RCRA (
				42 USC 6930 ):
A) Industrial ethyl alcohol that is reclaimed
				except that exports and imports of such recyclable materials must comply with
				the requirements of 40 CFR 262, subpart H.
B) Scrap metal that is not excluded under
				Section
				721.104(a)(13);
C) Fuels produced from the refining of
				oil-bearing hazardous wastes along with normal process streams at a petroleum
				refining facility if such wastes result from normal petroleum refining,
				production, and transportation practices (this exemption does not apply to
				fuels produced from oil recovered from oil-bearing hazardous waste where such
				recovered oil is already excluded under Section
				721.104(a)(12)
				);
D) Petroleum Refining Wastes
i) Hazardous waste fuel produced from
				oil-bearing hazardous wastes from petroleum refining, production, or
				transportation practices or produced from oil reclaimed from such hazardous
				wastes, where such hazardous wastes are reintroduced into a process that does
				not use distillation or does not produce products from crude oil, so long as
				the resulting fuel meets the used oil specification under 35 Ill. Adm. Code
				739.111
				and so long as no other hazardous wastes are used to produce the hazardous
				waste fuel;
ii) Hazardous waste
				fuel produced from oil-bearing hazardous waste from petroleum refining
				production, and transportation practices, where such hazardous wastes are
				reintroduced into a refining process after a point at which contaminants are
				removed, so long as the fuel meets the used oil fuel specification under 35
				Ill. Adm. Code 739.111; and
iii)
				Oil reclaimed from oil-bearing hazardous wastes from petroleum refining,
				production, and transportation practices, which reclaimed oil is burned as a
				fuel without reintroduction to a refining process, so long as the reclaimed oil
				meets the used oil fuel specification under 35 Ill. Adm. Code
				739.111.
4)
				Used oil that is recycled and is also a hazardous waste solely because it
				exhibits a hazardous characteristic is not subject to the requirements of 35
				Ill. Adm. Code 720 through 728, but it is regulated under 35 Ill. Adm. Code
				739. Used oil that is recycled includes any used oil that is reused for any
				purpose following its original use (including the purpose for which the oil was
				originally used). Such term includes, but is not limited to, oil that is
				re-refined, reclaimed, burned for energy recovery, or reprocessed.
5) Hazardous waste that is exported or
				imported for the purpose of recovery is subject to the requirements of Subpart
				H of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 722.
