Current through June 24, 2024
This section identifies those materials which are regulated
					 as used oil under this chapter. This section also identifies some materials
					 that are not regulated as used oil under this chapter, and indicates whether
					 these materials may be regulated as hazardous waste under chs.
					 NR
					 660 to 670.
(1) USED OIL. The department presumes that
				  used oil is to be recycled unless a used oil handler disposes of used oil, or
				  sends used oil for disposal. Except as provided in s.
				  NR
				  679.11, this chapter applies to used oil, and to
				  materials identified in this section as being regulated as used oil, whether or
				  not the used oil or material exhibits any hazardous waste characteristics
				  identified in subch. C of ch. NR 661.
(2) MIXTURES OF USED OIL AND HAZARDOUS WASTE.
(a)
Listed hazardous waste.
1. Mixtures of used oil and hazardous waste
				  that is listed in subch. D of ch. NR 661 are regulated as hazardous waste under
				  chs.
				  NR
				  660 to 670, rather than as used oil under this
				  chapter.
2. Used oil containing
				  greater than 1,000 ppm total halogens is presumed to be a hazardous waste
				  because it has been mixed with halogenated hazardous waste listed in subch. D
				  of ch. NR 661. Persons may rebut this presumption by demonstrating that the
				  used oil does not contain hazardous waste (for example, by showing that the
				  used oil does not contain significant concentrations of halogenated hazardous
				  constituents listed in ch. NR 661 Appendix VIII).
a. The rebuttable presumption does not apply
				  to metalworking oils or fluids containing chlorinated paraffins, if they are
				  processed, through a tolling arrangement as described in s.
				  NR
				  679.24(3), to reclaim metalworking
				  oils or fluids. The presumption does apply to metalworking oils or fluids if
				  the oils or fluids are recycled in any other manner, or are disposed.
b. The rebuttable presumption does not apply
				  to used oils contaminated with chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) removed from
				  refrigeration units where the CFCs are destined for reclamation. The rebuttable
				  presumption does apply to used oils contaminated with CFCs that have been mixed
				  with used oil from sources other than refrigeration units.

				  ashore. The owner or operator of the vessel and the person or persons removing
				  or accepting used oil from the vessel are co-generators of the used oil and are
				  all responsible for managing the waste in compliance with this subchapter once
				  the used oil is transported ashore. The co-generators may decide among them
				  which party or parties will fulfill the requirements of this
				  subchapter.
(c)
Diesel
				  fuel.
Mixtures of used oil and diesel fuel mixed by the generator of
				  the used oil for use in the generator's own vehicles are not regulated under
				  this chapter once the used oil and diesel fuel have been mixed. Prior to
				  mixing, the used oil fuel is regulated under this subchapter.
(d)
Farmers.
Farmers who
				  generate an average of 25 gallons per month or less of used oil from vehicles
				  or machinery used on the farm in a calendar year are not regulated under this
				  chapter.

				  NR
				  679.10(2) (a) 2., used oil containing
				  greater than or equal to 1,000 ppm total halogens is presumed to be a hazardous
				  waste and thus shall be managed as hazardous waste and not as used oil unless
				  the presumption is rebutted. However, the rebuttable presumption does not apply
				  to certain metalworking oils or fluids and certain used oils removed from
				  refrigeration units.
