Current through all regulations passed and
			 filed through July 1, 2024
(A) One time per twelve-month period for each
			 laboratory, an eligible academic entity may opt to conduct a laboratory
			 clean-out that is subject to all the applicable requirements of rules
			 3745-52-200
			 to
			 3745-52-216
			 of the Administrative Code, except that:
(1)
			 If the volume of unwanted material in the laboratory exceeds fifty-five gallons
			 (or one quart of liquid reactive acutely
			 hazardous unwanted material or one kilogram of solid
			 reactive acutely hazardous unwanted material), the eligible academic
			 entity is not required to remove all unwanted materials from the laboratory
			 within ten calendar days after exceeding fifty-five gallons (or one quart of
			 liquid reactive acutely hazardous unwanted
			 material or one kilogram of solid reactive acutely
			 hazardous unwanted material), as required by rule
			 3745-52-208
			 of the Administrative Code. Instead, the eligible academic entity
			 shall
			 remove all unwanted materials from the laboratory within thirty calendar days
			 after the
			 start of the laboratory clean-out.
(2) For
			 the purposes of on-site accumulation, an eligible academic entity is not
			 required to count a hazardous waste that is an unused commercial chemical
			 product (listed in rules
			 3745-51-30
			 to
			 3745-51-35
			 of the Administrative Code or exhibiting one or more characteristics
			 identified in rules
			 3745-51-20
			 to
			 3745-51-24
			 of the Administrative Code) generated solely during the laboratory clean-out
			 toward the
			 eligible academic entity's hazardous waste generator
			 category, pursuant to rule 3745-52-13 of the Administrative Code. An
			 unwanted material that is generated prior to the beginning of the laboratory
			 clean-out and is still in the laboratory at the time the laboratory clean-out
			 commences shall be counted toward hazardous waste generator
			 category, pursuant to rule 3745-52-13 of the Administrative Code, if
			 the unwanted
			 material is determined to be hazardous waste.
(3) For the purposes of off-site management,
			 an eligible academic entity shall count all the eligible academic
			 entity's hazardous waste, regardless of whether the hazardous waste was
			 counted toward generator category under paragraph (A)(2) of this rule, and if
			 the eligible
			 academic entity generates more than one kilogram per month of acute
			 hazardous waste or more than one hundred kilograms per month of
			 non-acute hazardous waste (i.e., the
			 very small quantity generator limits
			 as defined in rule
			 3745-50-10
			 of the Administrative Code), the hazardous waste is subject to all applicable
			 hazardous waste rules when the hazardous waste is transported off-site.
(4) An eligible academic entity
			 shall
			 document the activities of the laboratory clean-out. The documentation
			 , at a minimum, shall identify the laboratory being cleaned out, the
			 date the laboratory clean-out begins and ends, and the volume of hazardous
			 waste generated during the laboratory clean-out. The eligible academic entity
			 shall
			 maintain the records for a period of three years after the date
			 the clean-out ends.
