INTRODUCTION:
This training manual has been updated to incorporate applicable amendments to the Hazardous
Material regulations which were published in the Federal Register as of May 11, 2020.
Regulations presented in this manual are effective now; however, some of these regulations have
mandatory compliance dates set some time in the future.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-2 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
RCRA HAZARDOUS WASTE CLASSIFICATION
When shipping wastes, there are three classifications (hazardous waste, hazardous substance and
hazardous materials) which must be conducted in order to assure compliance with the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations.
Hazardous Wastes are regulated by the EPA under the Resource Conservation and Recovery
Act (RCRA). In accordance with 40 CFR 262.11 all generators of waste are required to make an
accurate waste determination to ensure hazardous wastes are properly managed. If the material is
classified as a hazardous waste, the generator must comply with applicable RCRA regulations
located at 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Parts 240 - 299).
Hazardous Substances are regulated under the EPA Comprehensive Emergency Response
Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA). If a hazardous substance is released to the
environment in a sufficient quantity (i.e., a reportable quantity (RQ)), the EPA requires that
immediate notification be made to the National Response Center and other entities that can assist
with the release. Although this notification is only required after a release has occurred, a
hazardous substance determination must be made prior to shipping, in order to comply with the
requirements of the EPA and the DOT.
Hazardous Materials regulations are enforced by the DOT under the Pipeline and Hazardous
Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA). The shipper (i.e., the manufacturer or generator not
the carrier/transporter) is required to ensure full compliance with Hazardous Materials
Regulations prior to offering a hazardous material for shipment. Hazardous material regulations
can be located at 49 CFR Parts 171 through 185.
Since the “hazardous waste” determination could affect the hazardous substance and hazardous
materials classifications, we will begin with hazardous waste classification procedures. The
waste determination must be made “at the point of generation.” When the waste is first
generated without being altered (e.g., as waste exits a process unit).
Solid Waste
Using the simplified waste determination flow chart, the first step in hazardous waste
classification is to determine if the waste meets the definition of a solid waste (40 CFR 261.2).
A solid waste is any discarded material that is not excluded by 40 CFR 261.4(a) (see Appendix
1, page 13 for exclusions). The term "solid waste" does not refer to the physical state of the
waste. An example of a waste excluded from the definition of a solid waste is:
"Spent sulfuric acid used to produce virgin sulfuric acid..."
If a waste is excluded from the solid waste definition it cannot be a hazardous waste. If the
material is a solid waste, the next step would be to determine if the solid waste is excluded from
the definition of a hazardous waste (40 CFR 261.4(b)) (see Appendix 1, page 26). An example
of a waste excluded from hazardous waste regulation is:
"Non-terne plated used oil filters that are not mixed with wastes listed in Subpart D of this part if these oil
filters have been gravity hot drained using one of the following methods:
(I) Puncturing the filter anti-drain back valve or the filter dome end and hot draining;
SET Environmental, Inc. T-3 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
(ii) Hot draining and crushing;
(iii) Dismantling and hot draining; or
(iv) Any other equivalent hot-draining method that will remove used oil."

Simplified Flow Chart
SET Environmental, Inc. T-4 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
Listed Waste
If the material is not excluded from the solid waste or hazardous waste definitions, the next step
will be to determine if the waste meets the definition of a listed hazardous waste and/or
characteristically hazardous waste. Lists of hazardous waste are located in 40 CFR:
§ 261.31 List of Waste from Non-specific Sources (F-List) - Appendix 1, p. A1-44),
§ 261.32 List of Waste from Specific Sources (K-List) - Appendix 1, p. A1-49) or
§ 261.33 Lists of Commercial Chemical Products (P- and U-List - Appendix 1, p. A1-60).
Characteristically hazardous wastes are defined at 40 CFR 261.21 through 261.24 (see Appendix
1 Pages A1-40 to A1-43):
§ 261.21 Characteristic of Ignitability (D001),
§ 261.22 Characteristic of Corrosivity (D002),
§ 261.23 Characteristic of Reactivity (D003) and/or
§ 261.24 Characteristic of Toxicity (D004 - D043);
Wastes Used in a Process
When making a hazardous waste determination, begin with the question: Is the waste spent or
has it been used?
The term "spent" is defined as "any material that has been used and as a result of contamination
can no longer serve the purpose for which it was produced without processing" 40 CFR 261.1
(c)(1)
If the waste is spent, the only "lists" of waste which would need to be referenced are the F and K-
Lists. If the material is unused, the only "lists" which would need to be referenced are the U and
P-Lists.
If the waste is spent or used in a process, one list you should consult is the K-list (Hazardous
Waste from Specific Sources). An example of a K-Listed waste is
K001 Bottom sediment sludge from the treatment of wastewaters from wood preserving
processes that use creosote and/or pentachlorophenol.
If the spent waste is not identified in the K-list, the next step will be to determine if the waste is
included in the F-list (Hazardous Waste from Non-Specific Sources). F-listed wastes can be
divided into six basic categories:
Spent Solvents F001 through F005
Plating Wastes F006 through F019
Dioxin Containing Waste F020 through F028
Wood Preserving Waste F030 through F035
Petroleum Refining Waste F037 and F038
Leachate F039.
For all practical purposes, the most common F-listed wastes are the spent solvents. The list of
SET Environmental, Inc. T-5 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
spent solvents (F001 through F005) can also be found in Appendix 1.
"Spent solvent listings cover only those solvents that are used for their "solvent properties", that
is, to solubilize or mobilize other constituents. For example, solvents used in de-greasing,
cleaning, fabric scouring, as diluents, extractants, reaction and synthesis media." Federal
Register Vol. 55 No. 251 December 31, 1986, p. 53316
F001 Assign the RCRA waste code F001 if any one of the following six solvents or any
combination of the following six solvents and those solvents listed under F002, F004 or
F005) were used in a large-scale industrial degreasing operation such as cold cleaning or
vapor degreasing at a concentration of ≥10%.
Tetrachloroethylene 1,1,1-Trichloroethane Trichloroethylene
Carbon Tetrachloride Chlorinated Fluorocarbons Methylene Chloride
Example 1: If a 16% solution of Carbon tetrachloride was used in a cold vapor
degreasing unit to degrease tools, the waste from that process would be
assigned the RCRA waste code F001.
This waste would meet the definition of a hazardous waste because it
meets the definition of a solid waste, is not excluded from the hazardous
waste definition and is listed under 40 CFR 261 Subpart D.
Example 2: If the concentration used to degrease the tools was 9%, the waste from the
process would not be assigned the RCRA waste code F001, however the
waste may still be classified as a hazardous waste because it exhibits a
hazardous characteristic, which will be discussed later in this section.
Example 3: If a solution of 5% 1,1,1-Trichloroethane, and 7% Methylene chloride
were used to degrease tools; the waste would be assigned the RCRA waste
code F001.
Example 4: If a solution containing 5% Methylene chloride and 7% Toluene were
used to degrease tools, the waste would be assigned the RCRA waste
codes F001 and F005.
F002 The basic difference between the F001 and F002 listing is that to be classified as F001
the waste must be generated by the process of degreasing. The F002 waste code would
be assigned to small scale degreasing operations and all other processes generating spent
halogenated solvents. Note that Carbon tetrachloride and the group of solvents referred
to as chlorofluorocarbons are the only F001 listed solvents that are not also listed under
F002. There are also a few additional solvents listed under F002.
Assign the RCRA waste code F002 if any one of the following nine solvents or any
combination of the following nine solvents and those solvents listed under F001, F004 or
F005) were used at a concentration of ≥10%.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-6 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
Tetrachloroethylene Methylene chloride Trichloroethylene
o-Dichlorobenzene 1,1,1-Trichloroethane Trichlorofluoromethane
Chlorobenzene 1,1,2-Trichloroethane
1,1,2-Trichloro-1,2,2- trifluoroethane
F003 Where F001 and F002 solvents are halogenated and listed for their toxicity, F003
solvents are non-halogenated and are listed only for their ignitability.
The primary difference between F003 and the other F-solvent listings is that the solvent
used in the process generating F003 waste must be at a 100% concentration when used.
Assign the RCRA waste code F003 if any one or more of the following nine solvents
were used at a concentration of 100%.
Xylene Methyl isobutyl ketone Acetone
n-Butyl alcohol Ethyl acetate Cyclohexanone
Ethyl benzene Methanol Ethyl ether
The tricky part: Also assign the RCRA waste code F003 if you assigned the RCRA waste
code F001, F002, F004 or F005 and the waste contains some quantity of the nine F003
solvents.
Example 1: Xylene at 100% concentration is used to clean out a reactor vessel. All
waste generated from this cleaning process is assigned the RCRA waste
code F003.
Example 2: A mixture of 50% Xylene and 50% Methanol is used to clean out a reactor
vessel. All waste generated from this process is assigned the RCRA waste
code F003.
Example 3: A mixture of 50% Xylene and 50% Ethanol is used to clean out a reactor
vessel. This waste would not be assigned the RCRA waste code F003;
however, it may exhibit a hazardous waste characteristic.
Example 4: A mixture of 50% Xylene a 10% Methylene chloride are used to clean out
a reactor vessel. This waste would be assigned the RCRA waste codes
F003 and F002.
Example 5: A mixture of 50% Xylene a 5% Methylene chloride are used to clean out a
reactor vessel. This waste would not be assigned a RCRA waste code;
however, this waste may exhibit a hazardous characteristic.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-7 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
F004 F004 and F005 solvents are also non-halogenated however they are listed because of their
toxicity and ignitability.
Assign the RCRA waste code F004 if any one of the following three solvents or any
combination of the following three solvents and those solvents listed under F001, F002 or
F005 were used at a concentration of ≥ 10%.
Cresols Nitrobenzene Cresylic Acid
F005 Assign the RCRA waste code F005 if any one of the following eight solvents or any
combination of the following eight solvents and those solvents listed under F001, F002 or
F004 were used at a concentration of ≥ 10%.
Toluene Pyridine Methyl Ethyl Ketone
Benzene Carbon Disulfide 2-Ethoxyethanol
Isobutanol 2-Nitropropane
Unused Commercial Chemical Products and Spill Residues
If the material was unused, the next step is to determine if the waste is listed as a commercial
chemical product: P-Listed (acute hazardous waste) or U-Listed (toxic hazardous waste). The
regulatory site for P and U-listed waste is at 40 CFR 261.33. The P-list begins on page A1-60
and the U-List begins on page A1-69.
U and P-listed wastes include commercially pure grades, technical grades, or any formulation in
which the listed chemical is the sole active ingredient. It does not include spent or used wastes.
P-listed wastes were listed due to their acute toxicity. They either exhibit an oral LD50 < 50
mg/kg, an inhalation LC50 <2 mg/l or a Dermal LD50 <200 mg/kg.
Characteristically Hazardous Waste
Regardless of whether or not the waste falls under the classification of a listed waste, the next
step is to determine if the waste exhibits a hazardous characteristic (D-coded waste). The four
categories of characteristic wastes are: ignitability, corrosivity, reactivity and toxicity. The
regulatory site for characteristic definitions are at 40 §§CFR 261.21, 261.22, 261.23 and 261.24
respectively and are summarized below (hazardous characteristic definitions, in regulatory text,
can also be found in Appendix 1).
Characteristic of Ignitability - D001
Under the characteristic of ignitability there are four definitions:
1. Definition: A liquid that exhibits a flash point of less than 140°F.
NOTE: Wastes in a solid physical state (i.e., no liquids) do not meet this definition.
Examples: Ethanol, Mineral Spirits, Gasoline, Acetic Acid
SET Environmental, Inc. T-8 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
2. Definition: A waste that is not a liquid and is capable under normal conditions of causing a
fire through friction, contact with water, or spontaneous chemical changes and, when ignited,
burns so vigorously and persistently that it creates a hazard.
Examples: Sodium Metal, Dinitrophenylhydrazine, Picric Acid, Silver Nitride,
Aluminum Borohydride.
3. Definition: Ignitable compressed gas that is classed as a flammable gas (2.1) by the
Department of Transportation.
Examples: Acetylene, Propane, Methane, Methyl Mercaptan
4. Definition: It is classed as an oxidizer (5.1) or organic peroxide (5.2) by the Department of
Transportation.
Examples: Potassium Permanganate, Ceric Ammonium Sulfate, Lead Nitrate, Potassium
Perchlorate, Sodium Chromate, Hydrogen Peroxide, Oxygen.
Characteristic of Corrosivity - D002
Under the characteristic of corrosivity there are two definitions.
1. Definition: An aqueous waste with a pH of ≤ 2 or ≥ 12.5.
A material in a solid physical state would not be assigned the code (D002)
Examples: Acetic Acid, Sulfuric Acid, Hydrochloric Acid, Titanium Tetrachloride,
Acetyl Chloride, Ethylamine, Sodium Hydroxide, Hydrazine Hydrated.
2. Definition: It is a liquid that corrodes steel at a rate greater than 6.35mm (0.25 inches) per
year at a test temperature of 55°C (130°F).
Characteristic of Reactivity - D003
Under the characteristic of reactivity there are eight definitions which deal with water reactives,
pyrophorics, cyanide and sulfide bearing wastes, shock sensitive compounds and explosives.
1. "It is normally unstable and readily undergoes change without detonating".
Examples: Aluminum Chloride Anhydrous, Dimethyl Allyl Arsine, Benzoyl Peroxide,
Acetyl Nitrate, Acetaldehyde
2. "Reacts violently with water".
Examples: Sodium Metal, Potassium Metal, Calcium Carbide, Titanium tetrachloride,
Acetyl Chloride, Sodium Amide
3. "It forms potentially explosive mixtures with water".
SET Environmental, Inc. T-9 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
Examples: Boron Tribromide, Cadmium Amide, Cesium Silicide, Lead Imide, Calcium
Carbide
4. "When mixed with water it generates toxic gasses, vapors or fumes in quantity sufficient to
present a danger to human health and the environment".
Examples: Phosphorous Pentasulfide, Calcium Cyanide
5. "It is a cyanide or sulfide bearing waste, and when exposed to a pH between 2 and 12.5 can
generate toxic gasses, vapors, or fumes in quantity sufficient enough to present a danger to
human health and the environment".
Examples: Phosphorous Cyanide, Calcium Cyanide
6. "It is capable of detonation or explosive reaction if it is subjected to a strong initiating source
or if heated under confinement".
Examples: Allene, Ammonium Picrate, Trinitrotoluene, Chlorodinitrotoluene.
7. "It is readily capable of detonation or explosive decomposition or reaction at standard
temperature and pressure".
Examples: Cupric Azide, Diacetyl Peroxide, Mercuric Chlorite, Methyl Perchlorate,
Anhydrous Perchloric Acid
8. It is a forbidden explosive, Class A explosive or a Class B explosive as defined in 49 CFR
173.
Examples: Acetylene Silver Nitrate, Ammonium Azide, Benzoyl Azide, 2,4-Dinitro-
1,3,5-trimethylbenzene, Dinitroethane, Hydrazine Perchlorate, Mercury Acetylide, Dry
Silver Azide, Trinitromethane
Characteristic of Toxicity - D004 through D043
Wastes which exhibit the characteristic of toxicity contain a specific chemical constituent which
exceeds a prescribed regulatory level. The EPA hazardous waste numbers, specific chemical
constituents and regulatory levels for the toxicity characteristics (TC) are as follows:
EPA Waste No. Contaminant Regulatory Level (mg/l)
D004 Arsenic 5.0

The generator may use knowledge to determine if a waste meets the characteristic of toxicity;
however, if this knowledge is insufficient, the generator should analyze the waste by a method
known as the Toxicity Characteristic Leachate Procedure (TCLP) (See Test Methods for
Evaluating Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods, SW846 Method 1311). However, the
generator may base their hazardous waste determination on knowledge of the waste. Using
either method, the generator must maintain documentation on how the hazardous waste
determination was made.
It is acceptable to assign the toxicity characteristic hazardous waste number if the chemical
constituent is suspected to be present in the waste above the regulatory level without conducting
analysis. For example, in the hazardous waste determinations of lab pack waste, it would not be
prudent to run costly TCLP analysis on each individual bottle in the lab pack. In this case, if the
chemical contains any of the above constituents then assume that it exceeds the regulatory level
and assign the appropriate characteristic code.
If the waste is not listed and does not exhibit a hazardous characteristic, the waste is not a
hazardous waste under RCRA; however, this waste may still be subject to regulation by state and
local governments.
If a RCRA waste code was assigned in this process, the waste is a hazardous waste and there is
one more step to consider – Underlying Hazardous Constituents (UHC). UHCs are chemical
constituents in a waste that are listed in 40 CFR 268.48 (see Appendix 8) at a concentration
above its treatment standard and are not identified in the treatment standards for the EPA
SET Environmental, Inc. T-11 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
hazardous waste numbers assigned to the waste. UHCs can be defined as:
1. Characteristically hazardous waste (i.e., a D-code was assigned during the waste
determination);
2. Have a treatment standard that includes the phrase “…and meet 268.48 standards” and
3. Contain a chemical listed in 268.48 not specifically associated with a listed RCRA waste
code.
Under the land disposal restrictions, the last two columns of the treatment standards table
identify treatment standards for wastewaters and non-wastewater. A wastewater is defined as
containing <1% Total Organic Carbon (TOC) and < 1% Total Suspended Solids (TSS). If the
waste does not meet the definition of a wastewater it is a non-wastewater. These treatment
standards can be technology based (CMBST = Combustion), numeric or both. When
developing these treatment standards, EPA consulted companies that treat waste to evaluate
the Best Available Treatment Technology (BDAT). The treatment standards are often
different for wastewater and non-wastewaters. Because of the low concentration of
contaminants in wastewaters, wastewater treatment standards are often lower than non-
wastewater treatment standards.
Scenario: A hazardous waste is assigned the waste Code D001 (high TOC ignitable
subcategory) and D035 (toxicity characteristic for Methyl ethyl ketone) and contains 20%
MEK and 10% Naphthalene.
Question: Is Naphthalene a UHC?
The waste is characteristically hazardous (D001 and D035),
The treatment standard for D035 non-wastewater (NWW) includes the phrase “and
meet 268.48 standards”, and
Naphthalene is listed in 268.48 with a NWW treatment standard of 5.6 mg/kg.
Answer: Since all three of the requirements above have been met and there is more than 5.6
mg/kg Naphthalene in the waste (10% = 100,000 mg/kg), Naphthalene is a UHC.
The UHC must be identified on the Land Disposal Restriction Notification to the disposal
facility.
RCRA HAZARDOUS WASTE DETERMINATION GENERAL RULES
1. Prior to assigning EPA hazardous waste numbers, remember to ask the question: Is the
material used/spent?
If used/spent, the only lists which need be referenced are the K and F-lists.
If not used, the only lists which need be referenced are the U and P lists.
2. Whether or not the waste is "listed", the generator must also determine whether or not the
waste exhibits a hazardous characteristic (D-Codes).
3. F, K, P and U-codes are known as listed wastes. Because of the "derived from rule", once a
waste has been classified as a listed waste, the listed waste and any other waste derived from
SET Environmental, Inc. T-12 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
it will remain a hazardous waste. This rule does not apply to characteristically hazardous
waste (D-coded wastes). Once the hazardous characteristic is removed from the waste it is
no longer a hazardous waste; however, other treatment standards (e.g., for UHCs) that
applied at the point of generation still apply, even though it is no longer a hazardous waste.
4. Listed wastes are specific. For example, 1,2-Dichlorobenzene has the EPA hazardous waste
number U070 where 1,3-Dichlorobenzene has the EPA hazardous waste number U071.
5. Be aware of synonyms. Methylene chloride has the EPA hazardous waste number U080
where Dichloromethane is not listed. However, Dichloromethane is another name (a
synonym) for Methylene chloride. Therefore, Dichloromethane would be assigned the EPA
hazardous waste number U080.
6. For a single chemical do not assign different types of EPA hazardous waste numbers. For
example:
(1) Spent acetone is listed as F003 if it was used at 100% concentration;
(2) Unused acetone is listed as U002; and
(3) An unused mixture, containing acetone (not as the sole active ingredient), that
exhibits a flash point of less than 140°F, would be assigned the EPA hazardous
waste number D001.
Only one EPA hazardous waste number would be assigned in each case. See number 7 below
for an exception to this rule when mixtures of wastes are involved.
7. For any single waste, multiple D-codes can be applied. For example, concentrated chromic
acid would receive the EPA hazardous waste numbers:
• D001 for its oxidizing properties,
• D002 for its corrosive properties, and
• D007 because it exceeds the regulatory level for the chromium toxicity characteristic.
8. Only when you have a mixture of waste or have a listed waste that exhibits a characteristic
which is unaccounted for in the treatment standard should multiple codes of different types
be assigned. For Example: a 10 percent solution of spent methylene chloride and 90 percent
ethanol which exhibits a flash point of less than 140°F would receive the hazardous waste
numbers F002 and D001.
9. Classify spilled waste just as it would have been classified prior to being spilled. For
example, soil contaminated with unused acetone would receive the RCRA waste code U002
rather than F003 for spent Acetone.

Additional RCRA Requirements for Generators of Hazardous Waste
The specific RCRA regulations that a hazardous waste generator must follow, may be dependent
on the volume of hazardous waste generated in a calendar month. Once the hazardous waste has
been classified and the amount generated in a calendar month is determined, what additional
regulations must the hazardous waste generator follow?
Generator Category Determinations
In accordance with 40 CFR 261.13, a generator of hazardous waste must calculate the volume of
hazardous waste generated in a calendar month and use this data to determine their generator
category. The generator category may change from month to month depending on the volume of
hazardous waste generated. There are three types of generators: Very Small Quantity Generator
(VSQG), Small Quantity Generator (SQG) and Large Quantity Generator (LQG). Definitions for
each generator category are located at 40 CFR 260.10. The generator category is based on the
volume of hazardous waste generated in a calendar month and as summarized in the table below.
Generator Category Hazardous Waste Quantity
Limits
VSQG
≤100 kg (220 lb)
≤ 1 kg Acute
<100 kg Acute Spill Waste
SQG
100 to ≤1000 kg (2200 lb)
≤ 1 kg Acute
≤100 kg Acute Spill Waste
LQG
>1000 kg (2200 lb)
> 1 kg Acute
>100 kg Acute Spill Waste
Certain wastes are not counted towards the generator category determination. These include:
• Material in legitimate production processes per 261.4(c),
• Samples per 261.4(d),
• Treatability Study Samples per 261.4(e),
• Samples Undergoing Treatability Studies at Testing Facilities per 261.4(f),
• Hazardous recyclable material 261.6(a)(3),
• Residues in Empty Containers per 261.7,
• PCBs regulated under TSCA per 261.8,
• Elementary neutralization waste, wastewater treatment units, or totally enclosed treatment
facilities as defined in 40 CFR 260.10;
• Waste recycled, without prior storage or accumulation, only in an on-site process subject to
regulation under 40 CFR 261.6(c)(2);
• Used oil managed under the requirements of 40 CFR 261.6(a)(4) and 40 CFR part 279;
• Spent lead-acid batteries managed under the requirements of 40 CFR part 266 subpart G;
• Universal waste managed under 40 CFR 261.9 and 40 CFR part 273;
• Unused commercial chemical products generated solely as a result of a laboratory clean-out
conducted at an eligible academic entity pursuant to §262.213; or
SET Environmental, Inc. T-14 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
• Is managed as part of an episodic event in compliance with the conditions of 40 CFR Subpart
L.
• Is a hazardous waste pharmaceutical, as defined in §266.500, that is subject to or managed in
accordance with 40 CFR part 266 subpart P or is a hazardous waste pharmaceutical that is
also a Drug Enforcement Administration controlled substance and is conditionally exempt
under §266.506.
EPA Identification Numbers
SQG and LQGs are required to obtain an EPA identification number before they treat, store,
dispose of, transport, or offer for transportation, hazardous waste. The EPA ID number is site
specific. The identification number remains with the location not the business.
• By September 1 of 2021 and every four years thereafter a small quantity generator
must re-notify EPA using EPA Form 8700-12. This re-notification must be submitted
by September 1st of each year in which re-notifications are required.
• A large quantity generator must re-notify EPA by March 1 of each even-numbered
year thereafter using EPA Form 8700-12. A large quantity generator may submit this
re-notification as part of its Biennial Report required under §262.41.
This highlights one of the primary differences between LQGs and SQGs. The SQG is not
required to submit a biennial report.
VSQG’s are not required to obtain an EPA ID number and are exempt from most of the RCRA
generator requirements.
Other conditions for exemption for a very small quantity generator are located at 40 CFR 262.14.
Conditions for exemption applicable to small and large quantity generators are located at 40 CFR
262.16 and 262.17, respectively.
Training
Both small and large quantity generators are required to train their employees.
Large quantity generators must train their employees in a manner that ensures the company’s
compliance with applicable RCRA regulations.
At a minimum EPA requires a training program designed to ensure that facility personnel are
able to respond effectively to emergencies by familiarizing them with emergency procedures,
emergency equipment, and emergency systems, including where applicable:
1. Procedures for using, inspecting, repairing, and replacing facility emergency and monitoring
equipment;
2. Key parameters for automatic waste feed cut-off systems;
3. Communications or alarm systems;
4. Response to fires or explosions;
5. Response to ground-water contamination incidents; and
6. Shutdown of operations.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-15 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
Although not detailed in the training regulation, other topics that should be considered to ensure
RCRA compliance may include but are not limited to:
1. Accumulation time limits (e.g., LQG 90-day storage and satellite accumulation limits)
2. Container/tank management
3. Hazardous waste regulations
4. Inspections
5. Hazardous waste determinations
6. Manifesting, labeling, marking and placarding
7. Chemical and physical properties of waste
8. Reporting and recordkeeping
9. Waste minimization
10. Packaging
Initial training must be provided within 6 months of employment and must be reviewed each
year. Training records must be kept for all current employees. Training records for all former
employees must be retained for at least three years. Training records for LQGs must include:
1. The job title and name of the employee
2. Written job description
3. Written description of the type and amount of initial and annual review training that will be
provided for each position. This training documentation requirement is what sets a
generators amount of required training (e.g., number of hours of initial and annual review
training). Federal regulations do not specify the number of hours that employees must be
trained.
4. Records that indicate the required training has been provided.
Small Quantity Generators are required to provide initial training but are not required to provide
annual review training. This highlights one of the primary differences between LQGs and SQGs.
The amount and type of initial training is also potentially different (e.g., less) from the LQG.
The bar that the SQG must hurdle is lower than the LQG. An SQG is required to “ensure that all
employees are thoroughly familiar with proper waste handling and emergency procedures,
relevant to their responsibilities during normal facility operations and emergencies.”
262.16(b)(9)(iii)
Hazardous Waste Manifest
Small and Large Quantity Generators must use a uniform hazardous waste manifest when
shipping hazardous waste off site.
A manifest is not required when transporting hazardous wastes on a public or private right-of-
way within or along the border of contiguous property.
The Federal government does not require the use of a Hazardous Waste Manifest for:
• Non-hazardous Waste
• VSQG Hazardous Waste
• Universal “Hazardous” Waste
SET Environmental, Inc. T-16 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
However, State regulations may require the use of a manifest for these wastes. The manifest
system will be discussed later in this manual.
The DOT does not consider material to be a hazardous waste if it is not required to be
manifested. Further, if the material does not meet the definition of Hazard Class 1 – 8, it is not a
hazardous material (i.e., it is not Class 9).
Pre-Transport Requirements
In accordance with 40 CFR 262 Subpart C, hazardous waste generators must comply with the
following Department of Transportation (DOT) hazardous materials regulations.
1. Packaging
2. Labeling
3. Marking
4. Placarding
Each of these regulations will be discussed in detail later in this manual. 40 CFR 262 Subpart C
RCRA Container Requirements
Although there are additional storage requirements for tanks, drip pads, and containment
buildings not included in this training material see 40 CFR 262.16 and 262.17; this section will
focus on the more common container storage requirements. VSQG, SQG and LQGs are exempt
from certain requirements under RCRA as long as the conditions for the exemption are complied
with. For example, a large quantity generator is allowed to store hazardous waste up to 90 days
without obtaining a permit as long as the following conditions are met. Requirements applicable
to container management are summarized below.
1. The container is in good condition. If it is in poor condition or begins to leak the waste is
transferred to a container in good condition.
2. Compatibility: The container is compatible with its contents; waste is not added to a
container with incompatible residue and incompatible waste is not placed in the same
container.
3. The container is kept closed except when adding or removing waste or for safety reasons
(over pressurization).
4. The container is not handled in a way that would cause it to rupture or leak.
5. Container storage areas are inspected at least once each week. Inspecting for items such as:
a. Leaking containers
b. Containers in poor condition
c. Open containers
d. Containers stored over 90 days
e. Container grounding
f. Labeling and marking
g. Emergency equipment
6. Containers of ignitable or reactive waste must be stored at least 50 feet from the company’s
property line. Under the generator improvement rule, this requirement can be waived if
written approval is obtained from the authority having jurisdiction over the local fire code
SET Environmental, Inc. T-17 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
allowing hazardous waste accumulation to occur within this restricted area.
7. Individual containers of incompatible waste must be separated with the use of walls, curbs or
other devices.
8. Take precautions to prevent accidental ignition or reaction of ignitable or reactive waste by
separating and protecting waste from sources of ignition or reaction this includes but not
limited to: open flames, smoking, cutting and welding, hot surfaces, frictional heat, sparks
(static, electrical, or mechanical), spontaneous ignition, and radiant heat). While ignitable or
reactive waste is being handled, the large quantity generator must confine smoking and open
flame to specially designated locations. “No Smoking” signs must be conspicuously placed
wherever there is a hazard from ignitable or reactive waste.
9. Containers of hazardous waste greater than 5-gallon capacity must be free of any openings
and authorized by the DOT. This will ensure compliance with air emissions standards under
40 CFR Subpart CC. Additional air emission requirements may apply to containers greater
than 119-gallon capacity.
10. The date of accumulation is clearly marked on the container and is visible for inspection.
11. The container is clearly marked with the words “Hazardous Waste”.
12. The container is marked in a manner that indicates the hazards. Options include but are not
limited to:
a. Hazardous waste characteristic(s) - Ignitable, corrosive, reactive, and/or toxic;
b. DOT Hazardous material communication - labeling or placarding;
c. OSHA/GHS hazard statement or pictogram;
d. NFPA 704 Chemical hazard label
13. Storage time limits are not exceeded. This highlights one of the primary differences between
the generator categories.
Generator Category Time Limit
VSQG None
SQG 180/270 Days
LQG 90 Days
Universal Waste 1 Year
14. Accumulation limits do not define the generator category. If the VSQG exceeds their non-
acute accumulation limits, they must manage all accumulated waste as if they were an SQG
but they are not required to change their generator category. If the VSQG exceeds their acute
hazardous waste accumulation limits, they must ship all accumulated waste off-site within 90
days and comply with LQG requirements in 40 CFR 262.17. If the SQG exceeds their 6000
kg accumulation limit, they must change to an LQG or obtain a permit to store waste.
Generator Category Hazardous Waste Accumulation
Limit
VSQG 1000 kg (2200 pounds) Non-Acute
1 kg Acute
100 kg Acute Spill Waste
SQG 6000 kg (13,200 pounds)
LQG None
SET Environmental, Inc. T-18 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
15. SQG and LQG comply with the Preparedness and prevention requirements. In addition,
LQG complies with the Contingency Plan requirements of 40 CFR 262 Subpart M.
The following table summarizes Satellite Accumulation Area (SAA) and Centralized
Accumulation Area (CAA) container management requirements for each generator category. The
numbers in this table match the requirements enumerated above.

* The VSQG may also not accumulate (i.e., store) more than 1kg of acute hazardous waste (e.g., P-coded waste)
or 100 kg of spill material contaminated with acute hazardous waste.
Preparedness and Prevention
SQG must comply with the preparedness and prevention requirements in 40 CFR 262.16(b)(8)
and LQGs must comply with the emergency procedures in 40 CFR 262 Subpart M which include
the same preparedness and prevention requirements applicable to the SQG; however, the LQG
must also comply with the written contingency plan requirements in Subpart M. Preparedness
and prevention elements include:
1. Minimize the possibility of fire, explosion or release of hazardous waste.
2. Where the hazards presented by the waste would warrant the need for emergency response
equipment, the CAA must be equipped with the following:
a. Internal Communication or alarm system capable of providing immediate emergency
instruction to employees. All employees must have immediate access to this
equipment when hazardous waste is being handled.
b. A means, immediately available at the scene of operations, to contact local authorities
for emergency assistance.
c. Portable fire extinguishers.
d. Spill control equipment.
e. Decontamination Equipment.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-19 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
f. Adequate water supply and pressure for fire hoses and sprinkler systems or other
automated fire suppression equipment.
This equipment must be tested and maintained to ensure proper operation.
3. Maintaining aisle space to allow unobstructed movement of personnel and equipment to any
area involved in an emergency.
4. Attempt to make arrangements with police, fire department and emergency response teams,
hospitals to familiarize them with:
a. Layout of the facility
b. Properties and hazardous of waste handled
c. Places where employees would normally be working
d. Entrances to roads inside the facility and
e. Possible evacuation routes.
Records of attempts or actual agreements must be maintained.
5. Familiarizing local hospitals with properties of hazardous waste handled and the types of
injuries or illnesses which could occur from fires, explosions or releases.
SQG Emergency Procedures
Where hazardous waste is generated and accumulated:
1. At all times there must be at least one emergency coordinator either on the premises or on
call (i.e., available to respond to an emergency by reaching the facility within a short period
of time) with the responsibility for coordinating the following emergency response measures
emergency coordinator.
a. In the event of a fire, call the fire department or attempt to extinguish it using a fire
extinguisher;
b. In the event of a spill, contain the flow of hazardous waste to the extent possible, and as
soon as is practicable, cleaning up the hazardous waste and any contaminated materials or
soil. Containment and cleanup can be conducted either by the SQG or by a contractor;
c. In the event of a fire, explosion, or other release that could threaten human health outside
the facility or when the SQG has knowledge that a spill has reached surface water, the
SQG must immediately notify the National Response Center (using their 24-hour toll free
number 800/424-8802). The report must include the following information:
• The name, address, and U.S. EPA identification number of the small quantity
generator;
• Date, time, and type of incident (e.g., spill or fire);
• Quantity and type of hazardous waste involved in the incident;
• Extent of injuries, if any; and
• Estimated quantity and disposition of recovered materials, if any.
2. The small quantity generator must post the following information next to telephones or in
areas directly involved in the generation and accumulation of hazardous waste:
• The name and emergency telephone number of the emergency coordinator;
• Location of fire extinguishers and spill control material, and, if present, fire alarm;
and
• The telephone number of the fire department, unless the facility has a direct alarm.
3. Ensure that all employees are thoroughly familiar with proper waste handling and emergency
procedures, relevant to their responsibilities during normal facility operations and
emergencies. NOTE this is the only reference to training for SQGs.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-20 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
LQG Emergency Procedures – Contingency Plan
1) Describe the actions facility personnel must take to minimize hazards to human health or the
environment from fires, explosions, or any unplanned sudden or non-sudden release of
hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents to air, soil, or surface water and in the event
of an emergency:
a) Activate internal facility alarms or communication systems, where applicable, to notify
all facility personnel;
b) Notify appropriate state or local agencies with designated response roles if their help is
needed.
c) Immediately identify the character, exact source, amount, and areal extent of any released
materials
d) Concurrently, assess possible hazards to human health or the environment
e) If a release, fire, or explosion could threaten human health, or the environment, outside
the facility, the emergency coordinator must report the findings as follows:
i) Notify appropriate local authorities if evacuation of local area is advisable or provide
assistance to appropriate officials in making this decision; and
ii) Immediately notify either the government official designated as the on-scene
coordinator for that geographical area, or the National Response Center (using their
24-hour toll free number 800/424-8802). The report must include:
(1) Name and telephone number of reporter;
(2) Name and address of the generator;
(3) Time and type of incident (e.g., release, fire);
(4) Name and quantity of material(s) involved, to the extent known;
(5) The extent of injuries, if any; and
(6) The possible hazards to human health, or the environment, outside the facility.
f) During an emergency, take all reasonable measures necessary to ensure that fires,
explosions, and releases do not occur, recur, or spread to other hazardous waste at the
generator's facility. These measures must include, where applicable, stopping processes
and operations, collecting and containing released hazardous waste, and removing or
isolating containers
g) If the generator stops operations, monitor for leaks, pressure buildup, gas generation, or
ruptures in valves, pipes, or other equipment, wherever this is appropriate
h) Immediately after an emergency
i) Provide for treating, storing, or disposing of recovered waste,
ii) Ensure that no hazardous waste that may be incompatible with the released material is
treated, stored, or disposed of until cleanup procedures are completed; and all
emergency equipment is cleaned and fit for its intended use before operations are
resumed.
iii) Within 15 days note in the operating record submit a written report on the incident to
the Regional Administrator. The report must include:
(1) Name, address, and telephone number of the generator;
(2) Date, time, and type of incident (e.g., fire, explosion);
(3) Name and quantity of material(s) involved;
(4) The extent of injuries, if any;
(5) An assessment of actual or potential hazards to human health or the environment,
where this is applicable; and
SET Environmental, Inc. T-21 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
(6) Estimated quantity and disposition of recovered material that resulted from the
incident.
2) The plan must describe arrangements agreed to with the local police department, fire
department, other emergency response teams, emergency response contractors, equipment
suppliers, local hospitals or, if applicable, the Local Emergency Planning Committee.
3) The plan must list names and emergency telephone numbers of all persons qualified to act as
emergency. Where more than one person is listed, one must be named as primary emergency
coordinator and others must be listed in the order in which they will assume responsibility as
alternates
4) The plan must include a list of all emergency, the location and a physical description of each
item on the list, and a brief outline of its capabilities.
5) The plan must include an evacuation plan for generator personnel where there is a possibility
that evacuation could be necessary.
Closure Requirements for LQGs
Under the generator improvement rule closure requirements now apply to LQGs accumulating
hazardous waste in containers. Regulations previously only required closure for tanks, drip pads,
and containment buildings.
The LQG may either:
1) Place a notice in the operating record within 30 days after closure identifying the location of
the unit within the facility. If the waste accumulation unit is subsequently reopened, the
generator may remove the notice from file; or
2) Notify EPA using form 8700-12 of the intention to close the facility 30 days before initiating
closure, and notify EPA using form 8700-12 within 90 days after closing the facility
declaring that closure performance standards have been met or the unit will be closed as a
landfill.
The closure requirements do not apply to satellite accumulation areas.
Satellite Accumulation Areas (SAA)
Satellite accumulation containers are exempt from the container storage requirements above and
the accumulation time limits (90/180/270-day clock) as long as the following requirements are
met. 40 CFR 262.15
1. Container size does not exceed 55-gallons for hazardous waste or 1-quart (liquids) or 1-
kiliogram (solids) for acutely toxic hazardous waste.
2. The container is at or near the point of generation.
3. The container is under control of the process operator.
4. The generator complies with items 1 through 3, 8, 11, 12 and 15 in the Container
Management Table above.
When the SAA limits are exceeded mark the container with the accumulation start date. Within
three days of exceeding SAA quantity limits move the container to the CAA and comply with all
other applicable container requirements.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-22 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
Reduced Requirements for Small Quantity Generators
The small quantity generator (SQG) may store hazardous waste up to 180 days (or 270 days if
they ship their waste to TSDF over 200 miles away). As long as the SQG follows all conditions
for exemption in 262.16 (e.g. accumulation limit of 6,000 kg. The SQG is not required to follow
the following requirements applicable to LQGs.
• Annual RCRA training.
• Prepare a written contingency plan.
• Prepare and submit a Biennial Report.
• Notification for closure of waste management units or the facility.
• Submit an exception report, if a manifest with handwritten signature is not received from
the designated facility within 45 days. The SQG basically has to do this but they have 60
days to submit the3 information.
The SQG does not have to maintain a detailed contingency plan nor comply with the same level
of training requirements for the large quantity generator.
Land Disposal Restriction Notifications 40 CFR 268
Small and large quantity generators must comply with the land disposal restriction notification
requirements in 40 CFR 268.7(a)(5). This information must be retained for at least 3 years and
include:
1. EPA Hazardous Waste Number (F, K, P, U and D-Codes)
2. The US EPA 12-digit identification number
3. Constituents of concern which are specific chemical names for:
a. F-Code Solvents
b. Underlying Hazardous Constituents. These are chemical constituents listed in 40
CFR 268.48 (see tab 10) above a certain level that are not identified in the
treatment standards for the EPA hazardous waste numbers assigned to the waste.
4. Whether the waste is a wastewater (<1% TOC and <1% TSS) or Non-wastewater.
5. Waste analysis data, if available.
Universal Waste Reduced Requirements
Types of Universal Waste
Universal waste includes hazardous waste:
1. Batteries
2. Certain Pesticides
3. Mercury Containing Equipment, and
4. Lamps
5. Aerosol Cans
Reduced RCRA Requirements
Companies that accumulate less than 11,000 pounds of universal waste are Small Quantity
SET Environmental, Inc. T-23 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
Handlers and must manage their universal waste as follows:
1. Universal waste may be stored up to one year.
2. The generator of universal waste must be able to demonstrate the length of time that the
universal waste has been accumulated. For example, mark the date the waste was
removed from service. The date on the waste or container should represent the oldest
item placed in the container. Other specific methods are allowed under 273.15.
3. Containers that are closed, structurally sound and compatible with the material must be
used for:
a. Batteries in poor condition or batteries that could leak if not containerized.
b. Pesticides,
c. Mercury containing equipment in poor condition or equipment that could leak if
not containerized. This package must be designed to prevent the escape of
mercury into the environment by volatilization.
d. Lamps (broken or whole).
4. Mark the container “Universal Waste” and the type of universal waste (e.g., Universal
Waste - Aerosol Cans,” “Waste Aerosol Cans,” or “Used Aerosol Cans.
5. Train employees how to properly handle universal waste and emergency procedures.
6. Immediately contain any universal waste releases.
Companies that accumulate more than 11,000 pounds of universal waste at any time are Large
Quantity Handlers and must manage their universal waste as follows:
1. Follow the same requirements as the small quantity handler, and
2. Track universal waste shipments by keeping a record of each shipment (e.g., shipping
paper) and retain the record for at least three years.
Episodic Generation Reduced Requirements 40 CFR 262 Subpart L
This section applies to VSQG and SQG. This alternative regulation allows the VSQG or SQG to
exceed their generator category limits without changing their generator category.
There are two types of episodic events: planned and unplanned. “Planned episodic event means
an episodic event that the generator planned and prepared for, including regular maintenance,
tank cleanouts, short-term projects, and removal of excess chemical inventory.
Unplanned episodic event means an episodic event that the generator did not plan or reasonably
did not expect to occur, including production process upsets, product recalls, accidental spills, or
“acts of nature,” such as tornado, hurricane, or flood.”
The generator is allowed one episodic event per year with the ability to petition for a second
episodic event of a different type. If the first event was unplanned, the generator can request a
second event, but it must be planned and vice versa.
Notify EPA 30 days before a planned event using form 8700-12.
Notify EPA 72 hours after an unplanned event by phone or e-mail then using form 8700-12.
The episodic event notice shall include:
SET Environmental, Inc. T-24 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
1. Start date and end date
2. Reason(s) for the event,
3. Types and estimated quantities of hazardous waste expected to be generated,
4. Facility contact and emergency coordinator with 24-hour telephone access.
If the VSQG does not already have one, an EPA ID number must be obtained using form 8700-
12.
Mark containers “Episodic Hazardous Waste” and indication of the hazards and the date the
episodic event began.
Within 60 days of the start of the episodic event ship waste off-site for disposal to a designated
facility authorized to receive the waste.
Use a hazardous waste manifest when shipping the waste off-site.
Maintain records of the episodic event for three years.
Consolidation of Waste Shipments from VSQG to LQG Sites
In accordance with 40 CFR 262.14 (a)(5) a very small quantity generator is allowed to ship
hazardous waste to a large quantity generator in the same company and 40 CFR 262.17(f) allows
the LQG to receive that waste.
The VSQG marks containers in the same manner as required for container located in a SAA (i.e.,
the words “Hazardous Waste” and indication of the hazards).
The receiving LQG must notify the EPA using form 8700-12 of the intent to receive waste from
the VSQG 30 days in advance of the first shipment. Form 8700-12 must also be updated within
30 days if the name or address of the VSQG changes.
Upon receipt, the LQG marks the date of receipt on the container. Within 90 days of that date,
ship the waste off-site for treatment or disposal.
The LQG is allowed to consolidate VSQG waste or waste from multiple VSQGs with their own
waste. If this occurs, the date of the earliest generated or received waste must be marked on the
container.
Records of the receipt must be maintained for 3 years. The easiest method for this would be
copies of the shipping paper and 8700-12 notice.
Rejected Shipments
In the event that hazardous waste is rejected by the designated facility and returned to the SQG
or LQG, the generator must:
1. Sign section 18 (if the original manifest is used for the rejected shipment) or section 20
(if a new manifest is created for the rejected waste) and return the signed copy to the
rejecting facility.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-25 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
2. Manage the returned waste under all conditions for exemption applicable to their
generator category.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-26 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES AND REPORTABLE QUANTITIES (RQ)
The U.S. EPA is the agency responsible for the establishment of regulations regarding hazardous
substances; however, the DOT has been given the responsibility of enforcing these regulations
while the waste is in the transportation system. The hazardous substance list is located at
Appendix 3 in this manual.
There is one primary difference between the DOT and EPA with respect to hazardous substance
regulations. The DOT only considers the volume of waste in a single package when determining
if the material meets the definition of a hazardous substance; while the EPA is concerned with
the total quantity of waste released to the environment. For example, a 5-gallon pail of carbon
disulfide weighing 52 pounds would not be described as a hazardous substance on a shipping
paper since the RQ for carbon disulfide is 100 pounds. However, if two of these pails were
released to the environment in a 24-hour period, a CERCLA hazardous substance release would
have occurred.
STEP BY STEP HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE DETERMINATION PROCEDURES
A material is regulated as a hazardous substance by the DOT if it is identified in Appendix A of
the 49 CFR 172.101 Hazardous Materials Table and the quantity of the material in the
container equals or exceeds the RQ.
1. The first step in making a hazardous substance determination is to:
Identify the specific chemical name(s) and quantity(s) of each potential hazardous
substance in the waste, and
Identify the appropriate EPA hazardous waste code(s) (excluding U and P codes)
and total quantity of waste in the container.
2. Listed Chemicals*
If the waste is composed of a single chemical identified by name in the hazardous
substance table, then it is hazardous substance if the quantity of the chemical in the
container, is equal to or greater than its RQ value.
EXAMPLE
A 500-pound container of carbon disulfide would be a hazardous substance since its RQ
is 100 pounds. If 100 pounds of this material were released to the environment in a 24-
hour period a reportable quantity release under CERCLA would have occurred.
3. Unlisted Chemicals*
If the waste is composed of a single chemical which is not identified by name in the
hazardous substance table but exhibits a hazardous characteristic (D-Coded) identified in
the hazardous substance table, then it is a hazardous substance if the entire weight of the
waste in the container equals or exceeds the RQ value for the characteristic.
EXAMPLE
A 500-pound container of ethanol which exhibits the hazardous characteristic of
SET Environmental, Inc. T-27 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
ignitability (D001) is a hazardous substance since the RQ for D001 is 100 pounds. If 100
pounds of this material were released to the environment in a 24-hour period a reportable
quantity release under CERCLA would have occurred.
4. a. Listed Chemicals in Mixtures with Quantities Known
If the waste is composed of a mixture of chemicals which are all identified by
name in the hazardous substance table and the quantity of each chemical in the
waste is known, then it is a hazardous substance if the weight of any chemical in
the container equals or exceeds its RQ. In this case you must determine the
weight of each chemical in the container.
EXAMPLE
A container of 450 pounds of Carbon tetrachloride and 50 pounds of 1,1,2-
Trichloroethane would be a hazardous substance for Carbon tetrachloride since its
RQ is 10 pounds but would not be a hazardous substance for 1,1,2-
Trichloroethane since its RQ is 100 pounds. If 11.1 pounds of this mixture was
released to the environment in a 24-hour period, then a hazardous substance
release under CERCLA would have occurred.
NOTE: The equation for determining a CERCLA release is: (the weight of entire waste ÷
weight of one component) x (that components RQ value). In the example above: (500 pounds ÷
450 pounds) x 10 pounds = 11.1 pounds
b. Listed Chemicals in Mixtures with Quantities Unknown
If the waste is composed of a mixture of chemicals which are all identified by
name in the hazardous substance table and the quantity of each chemical in the
waste is unknown, then it is a hazardous substance if the entire weight of the
waste equals or exceeds the RQ value for any chemical in the waste. In this case
you assume that each chemical in the waste is 100% of the waste.
EXAMPLE
A 500-pound container of Carbon tetrachloride and 1,1,2-Trichloroethane would
be a hazardous substance for Carbon tetrachloride and 1,1,2-Trichloroethane since
the weight of the waste exceeds the RQs for both chemicals. In this case if 10
pounds of the mixture were released to the environment in a 24-hour period then a
hazardous substance release under CERCLA would have occurred.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-28 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
5. Unlisted Chemicals in Mixtures
If the waste is composed of a mixture of unlisted constituents, and the waste exhibits
more than one hazardous characteristic, it is a hazardous substance if the entire weight of
the waste exceeds the RQ for any characteristic.
EXAMPLE
A 200-pound container of Ethanol and Lead oxide which exhibited the hazardous
characteristic of ignitability (D001, RQ=100 pounds) and toxicity (D008, RQ=10
pounds) would be a hazardous substance for both D001 and D008 since the weight of the
waste in the container exceeds the RQs for both hazardous characteristics. If 10 pounds
of this mixture was released to the environment in a 24-hour period a hazardous
substance release under CERCLA would have occurred.
6. Mixtures of Listed and Unlisted Compounds
If the waste is composed of a mixture of chemicals specifically listed in the hazardous
substance table and unlisted chemicals which cause the waste to exhibit a hazardous
characteristic, it is a hazardous substance if either the weight of any listed constituent
exceeds its RQ or if the entire weight of the waste exceeds the RQ for any hazardous
characteristic.
EXAMPLE
A container of 200 pounds of acetone (listed, RQ = 5000 pounds) and 200 pounds of
ethanol (unlisted, exhibits the characteristic ignitability, RQ = 100 pounds) would be a
hazardous substance for D001.
If a reportable quantity release has occurred, you must IMMEDIATELY notify the National
Response Center at 800-424-8802. As is the case in Texas, you may also have to report a
release of this nature to several other agencies. These agencies should be identified in the
company's contingency plan.
* The term "listed" hazardous substances refers to chemicals identified by name in the
hazardous substance table and the term "unlisted" hazardous substances refers to
characteristically hazardous wastes (D001 through D043) also identified in the hazardous
substance table.

DOT HAZARDOUS MATERIALS CLASSIFICATION
After the hazardous waste and hazardous substance classifications are completed, the third and
last step in the complete classification of a waste is to conduct the hazardous materials
classification. In this classification step you will determine the hazard class or division and the
packing group of the material as defined in 49 CFR 173.
The first place you must reference to make a hazardous material determination is the Hazardous
Materials Table located at 49 CFR 172.101 (Appendix 2). The shipping name (either a chemical
name or more generic description) will appear in column 2. The primary hazard class or division
will appear directly to the right in Column 3; the packing group in column 5; and subsidiary
hazard(s) in column 6 (labels column).
If the chemical name does not appear in column 2, you must determine if the chemical meets the
definition of one or more of the 21 hazard classes or divisions listed below. For this step you
should be able to use some of the information gathered while making the hazardous waste
determination. In addition to identifying the appropriate hazard class or division, you must also
determine the degree of hazard presented by each class or division. For example Class 3
(flammable liquids) is further divided into three packing groups (I, II or III), Division 5.2
(organic peroxides) is further divided into seven types (A through G) and division 2.3 is divided
into four hazard zones (A, B, C and D).

CLASS 2 DIVISION 2.1 FLAMMABLE GAS
Definition: Any material which is a gas at 68°F or less and 14.7 psi [atmospheric pressure] of
pressure and is ignitable when in a mixture of 13 percent or less by volume with air or has a
flammable range with air of at least 12 percent at 14.7 psia and 68°F. §173.115(a)
Examples: Butane, Acetylene, Ethylamine
CLASS 2 DIVISION 2.2 NON-FLAMMABLE GAS
Definition: (1) Exerts in the packaging a gauge pressure of 200 kPa (29 psig) or greater at 20 °C
(68 °F), is a liquefied gas or is a cryogenic liquid, and (2) Does not meet the definition of
Division 2.1 or 2.3. (§173.115(b)). These include compressed gas, liquefied gas, pressurized
cryogenic gas, compressed gas in solution, asphyxiant gas and oxidizing gas).
Asphyxiant Gas: “a gas which dilutes or replaces oxygen normally in the atmosphere."
Oxidizing gas: "a gas which may, generally by providing oxygen, cause or contribute to the
combustion of other material more than air does."
Examples: Oxygen, Argon, Carbon Dioxide, Chlorodifluoromethane, Nitrogen, Nitrous Oxide.
CLASS 2 DIVISION 2.3 POISONOUS GAS
Definition: A gas poisonous by inhalation is any material which is a gas at 68°F at 14.7 psi and
which is known to be so toxic to humans as to pose a hazard during transportation or in the
absence of human toxicity data it has an LC50 < 5000 ml/m3. See Appendix 7 for a list of
division 2.3 materials with appropriate hazard classes or divisions and hazard zones.
§173.115(c).
Hazard Zone Determination and Examples:
In addition to classifying poisonous gases as Division 2.3, the hazard zone must also be
determined.
Hazard Zone LC50 (ppm) Examples
A <200 Arsine, Boron Trichloride, Cyanogen Chloride
B >200 <1000 Boron Trifluoride, Cyanogen, Chlorine

CLASS 4 DIVISION 4.1 FLAMMABLE SOLID
There are three (3) definitions of flammable solids
Definition 1: Desensitized (e.g., wetted) explosive which has been identified as a Division 4.1
material in the hazardous materials table. §173.124 (a) (1)
Definition 2: Pursuant to §173.124(a)(2)(I) "Self-reactive materials are materials that are
thermally unstable and that can undergo a strongly exothermic decomposition even without
participation of oxygen (air). A material is excluded from this definition if any of the following
applies."
The material meets the definition of an explosive, in which case it must be described as an
explosive.
The material is forbidden.
The material meets the definition of an oxidizer or an organic peroxide and is classed
accordingly.
The material meets one or more of the following conditions:
- Its heat of decomposition is less than 300J/g; or
- Its self-accelerating decomposition temperature (SADT) is greater than 167°F.
Division 4.1 self-reactive materials are assigned to a generic system consisting of seven types (A
through G). Type A would present the greatest amount of danger and Type G the least amount
of danger. Type A Self Reactive Materials can detonate or deflagrate rapidly and are forbidden
from being transported. Whereas Type G Self Reactive Material: will not detonate in the
cavitated state, will not deflagrate, shows no effect when heated under confinement, nor shows
any explosive power.
A self-reactive substance identified by technical name in the Self-Reactive Material Table in §
SET Environmental, Inc. T-33 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
173.224 is assigned to a generic type in accordance with that table. Any chemical which meets
the criteria of a self-reactive substance which is not identified by name in the 173.224 table must
not be shipped until the information specified in §173.124 (a)(2)(iii) is submitted to the associate
Administrator for Hazardous Materials Safety and written approval is received.
To determine the generic type, reference the chemical name of the self-reactive substance in the
§173.224 table (See Appendix 5). Follow across to column 2 and choose the identification
number that corresponds to the concentration for the self-reactive substance. Then go to the
hazardous materials table and look up the identification number in column 4 which appears to
the right of the shipping name "self-reactive...type..." in column 2.
Definition 3: Readily combustible solids are defined as:
"Material that may cause fire through friction, such as matches" §173.124(a)(3)(I)
"Powdered, granular or pasty materials that show a burning rate greater than 2.2 mm/s."
§173.124(a)(3)(ii) or
"Powders of metals or metal alloys that can be ignited and the reaction spreads over the
whole length of the sample in 10 minutes or less. §173.124 (a)(3)(iii)

CLASS 5 DIVISION 5.2 ORGANIC PEROXIDES
Definition: Division 5.2 materials are defined as any organic compound containing oxygen
(o) in a bivalent -0-0- structure and which may be considered a derivative of hydrogen
peroxide, where one or more of the hydrogen molecules are replaced with organic radicals.
§173.128 (a)
In addition to determining if the material meets the definition of Division 5.2, you must also
determine the "general type". There are 7 general types (A-G) see §173.128 (b).
To determine the general type, reference the chemical name of the organic peroxide in the
173.225 table (See Appendix 5). Follow across to column 2 and choose the identification
number that corresponds to the concentration, percent diluent, and/or percent water for the
organic peroxide. Then go to the hazardous materials table and look up the identification
number in column 4 which will appear to the right of the shipping name "organic
peroxide...type...." in column 2.
Note: You may only ship the organic peroxide if it meets all the conditions specified in the
173.128 table.
However; "mixtures of organic peroxides individually identified in the Organic Peroxide
Table...may be classified as the same type of organic peroxide as that of the most dangerous
component and be transported under the conditions for transportation given this type..."
[Added: December 29, 1994 in HM-215a)
CLASS 6 DIVISION 6.1 POISONOUS MATERIAL
Definition: A division 6.1 poisonous material is defined as any "material other than a gas
which is known to be so toxic to humans as to afford a hazard to health during transportation,
or which, in the absence of adequate data on human toxicity" (§173.132 (a) (1):
1. Is presumed to be toxic to humans because it falls into one of the following categories
when tested on laboratory animals (albino rats)
a. Oral toxicity LD50/14 < 500 mg/kg for liquids or acute oral toxicity LD50/14 < 200
mg/kg for solids

Packing Group Determinations for Division 6.1 Based on Inhalation of Vapors
In order to determine the packing group and hazard zone for liquids which were determined to
meet the definition of division 6.1 based on inhalation of vapors (definition 1.c.ii. above) use
Figure 1 in 49 CFR 173.133.
Example: Methyl Isocyanate
Given Vapor pressure (VP) @ 20°C is 300 mmHg
Total pressure (TP) @ 20°C is 760 mmHg
LC50 for a 4 hour exposure is 5 ml/m3
VP X 106 = V (saturated vapor concentration ml/m3)
TP
Therefore
300 X 106 = 394,737 ml/m3
760
The LC50 data for this definition is based on administering the material by inhalation for 1 hour
in which death occurs in 14 days or less. According to 49 CFR 173.132 (3)(ii) if the LC50 is
based on a 4 hour exposure then multiply that value by two (2) to obtain an equivalent LC50 for 1
hour.
Therefore
LC50 5 ml/m3 x 2 = LC50 10 ml/m3
The next step is to go to Figure 1 in 49 CFR 173.133 and note the location where the LC50 (10
ml/m3) and the volatility (394,737 ml/m3) meet. In this case, Packing Group I, Hazard Zone A.
Packing Group Determination for Mixtures of Division 6.1 Material
The following provisions have been added to §173.132 (c) for the purpose of classifying and
assigning packing groups to mixtures of compounds, which by themselves, meet the definition of
a poison based on dermal or oral toxicity data.
This is only one of two situations that the DOT allows the shipper to "assume a worst case
scenario" in assigning packing group criteria to a hazardous material. It should be noted that
"assuming worst case" under the following guidelines should be your "last resort".
If a mixture contains more than one active constituent reliable accurate acute oral and dermal
toxicity data on the actual mixture should be used to classify the material and assign packing
groups.
If reliable, accurate data on the actual mixture is not available:
classify the formulation according to the most hazardous constituent of the mixture as if the
constituent were present in the same concentration as the total concentration of all active
SET Environmental, Inc. T-40 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
constituents; or
apply the formula
TM = 100 Where
C = the % concentration of constituent A, B...Z in the mixture
T = the oral LD50 values of constituent A, B...Z
TM = the oral LD50 value of the mixture.
CA + CB + CZ
TA TB TZ
This formula will take into account the additive effect that two toxic materials may present;
however, it will not take into account potentiation, synergism, or antagonism.
Division 6.1 Packing Group I Hazard Zone Determinations
In order to determine the hazard zone for material listed in the 172.101 Hazardous Materials
Table, look up the chemical name and follow across to Column 7 (special provisions). If the first
number in this column is a 1, or 2, the hazard zones are A and B, respectively.
See Appendix 7 for a list of poison inhalation hazards with hazard classes or divisions,
identification numbers, packing groups and hazard zones.
CLASS 6 DIVISION 6.2 INFECTIOUS SUBSTANCE
Definition:
(1) Division 6.2 (Infectious substance) means a material known or reasonably expected to
contain a pathogen. A pathogen is a microorganism (including bacteria, viruses,
rickettsiae, parasites, fungi) or other agent, such as a proteinaceous infectious particle
(prion) that can cause disease in humans or animals. An infectious substance must be
assigned the identification number UN 2814, UN 2900, UN 3373, or UN 3291 as
appropriate, and must be assigned to one of the following categories:
(i) Category A: An infectious substance in a form capable of causing permanent
disability or life-threatening or fatal disease in otherwise healthy humans or
animals when exposure to it occurs. An exposure occurs when an infectious
substance is released outside of its protective packaging, resulting in physical
contact with humans or animals. A Category A infectious substance must be
assigned to identification number UN 2814 or UN 2900, as appropriate.
Assignment to UN 2814 or UN 2900 must be based on the known medical history
or symptoms of the source patient or animal, endemic local conditions, or
professional judgment concerning the individual circumstances of the source
human or animal.
(ii) Category B: An infectious substance that is not in a form generally capable of
causing permanent disability or life-threatening or fatal disease in otherwise
healthy humans or animals when exposure to it occurs. This includes Category B
infectious substances transported for diagnostic or investigational purposes. A
Category B infectious substance must be described as “Biological substance,
Category B” and assigned identification number UN 3373. This does not include
SET Environmental, Inc. T-41 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
regulated medical waste, which must be assigned identification number UN 3291.
(2) Biological product means a virus, therapeutic serum, toxin, antitoxin, vaccine, blood,
blood component or derivative, allergenic product, or analogous product, or
arsphenamine or derivative of arsphenamine (or any other trivalent arsenic compound)
applicable to the prevention, treatment, or cure of a disease or condition of human beings
or animals. A biological product includes a material subject to regulation under 42 U.S.C.
262 or 21 U.S.C. 151-159. Unless otherwise excepted, a biological product known or
reasonably expected to contain a pathogen that meets the definition of a Category A or B
infectious substance must be assigned the identification number UN 2814, UN 2900, or
UN 3373, as appropriate.
(3) Culture means an infectious substance containing a pathogen that is intentionally
propagated. Culture does not include a human or animal patient specimen as defined in
paragraph (a)(4) of this section.
(4) Patient specimen means human or animal material collected directly from humans or
animals and transported for research, diagnosis, investigational activities, or disease
treatment or prevention. Patient specimen includes excreta, secreta, blood and its
components, tissue and tissue swabs, body parts, and specimens in transport media (e.g.,
transwabs, culture media, and blood culture bottles).
(5) Regulated medical waste or clinical waste or (bio) medical waste means a waste or
reusable material derived from the medical treatment of an animal or human, which
includes diagnosis and immunization, or from biomedical research, which includes the
production and testing of biological products. Regulated medical waste or clinical waste
or (bio) medical waste containing a Category A infectious substance must be classed as
an infectious substance, and assigned to UN2814 or UN2900, as appropriate.
(6) Sharps means any object contaminated with a pathogen or that may become contaminated
with a pathogen through handling or during transportation and also capable of cutting or
penetrating skin or a packaging material. Sharps includes needles, syringes, scalpels,
broken glass, culture slides, culture dishes, broken capillary tubes, broken rigid plastic,
and exposed ends of dental wires.
(7) Toxin means a Division 6.1 material from a plant, animal, or bacterial source. A toxin
containing an infectious substance or a toxin contained in an infectious substance must be
classed as Division 6.2, described as an infectious substance, and assigned to UN 2814 or
UN 2900, as appropriate.
(8) Used health care product means a medical, diagnostic, or research device or piece of
equipment, or a personal care product used by consumers, medical professionals, or
pharmaceutical providers that does not meet the definition of a patient specimen,
biological product, or regulated medical waste, is contaminated with potentially
infectious body fluids or materials, and is not decontaminated or disinfected to remove or
mitigate the infectious hazard prior to transportation.
For exceptions to the definition of Division 6.2 see 49 CFR 173.134(b) and (c)
SET Environmental, Inc. T-42 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
CLASS 7 RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL
Definition: Any material containing radionuclides where both the activity concentration and the
total activity in the consignment exceed the values for the radioactive isotope specified in the
table in §173.436 or values derived according to the instructions in §173.433. There are two part
to the definition which must be met before the material meets the definition of Class 7. The first
part of the definition is met if the activity concentration is exceeded. The second Part of the
definition is met if the activity/exempt consignment is exceeded. The activity concentration is
measured in Curies (Ci) or Becquerels (Bq) per gram of material. Becquerels is the SI unit of
radioactivity. The activity/consignment is determined by multiplying the specific activity by the
amount of material in the package and comparing to the exempt consignment activity in 49 CFR
173.436.
Radioactive isotopes of concern with Oil and Gas TENORM waste are Radium-226, Radium-
228, Thorium-228, Lead-210, Polonium-210. The activity concentration is 270 picocuries per
gram of material (pCi/gm) for each of these isotopes except for Th-228 which has an exempt
specific activity concentration of 27 pCi/gm. The activity concentration for an exempt
consignment is 270,000 pCi for all isotopes except Ra-228 and Po-210 which is 2,700,000 pCi.
In TENORM waste the presence of a specific radioactive isotope and its activity can only be
determined through laboratory analysis (this analysis is referred NORM Analysis, Radioassay or
Radioactive Chemistry). Radioassay will typically report TENORM specific activity in
picocuries/gm (pCi/gm). One Picocurie is equivalent to 10-12 Ci.
For example, if analysis identifies that the waste contains 8000 pCi/gm Pb-210 (i.e. it exceeds
the exempt activity concentration of 270 pCi/gm) the material meets the first part of the Class 7
definition. The second part of the definition involves multiplying activity concentration 8000
pCi/gm times the number of grams in the package and comparing to the exempt consignment
activity of 270,000 pCi. Another way to look at this is by dividing the exempt consignment
activity by the specific activity obtained from lab analysis (270,000 ÷ 8,000 = 32 grams of
material).
Examples: TENORM/NORM, Thorium nitrate, Uranyl acetate
CLASS 8 CORROSIVE MATERIAL

COMBUSTIBLE LIQUID
Definition: A combustible liquid is any liquid with a flash point between 141 and 200°F and
does not meet the definition of any other hazard class other than Class 9.
§173.120 (b)
Packing Group Designations:
Combustible liquids will be assigned to packing group III.
CLASS 9 MISCELLANEOUS HAZARDOUS MATERIAL
Definition: Is a material which has an anesthetic, noxious or other similar property which could
cause extreme annoyance or discomfort to a flight crew member so as to prevent the correct
performance of assigned duties and does not meet the definition of any other hazard class or
division; or
It is a material which meets the definition of a hazardous substance, hazardous waste or a Marine
Pollutant and does not meet the definition of any other hazard class or division. §173.140
Packing group assignment for class 9 material will be determined by the hazardous materials
table.
ORM-D
Definition: Any material such as a consumer commodity which although otherwise subject to
the hazardous materials regulations, presents a limited hazard during transportation due to its
form quantity and packaging. §173.144
SET Environmental, Inc. T-45 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
HAZARD CLASS OR DIVISION PRECEDENCE
If the material is not specifically listed in the 172.101 table and meets the definition of more than
one hazard class, use the following hierarchy or Precedence Table to determine which hazard
class takes precedence. §173.2a
Class 1 (explosives), division 5.2 (organic peroxides), 6.2 infectious substances and division 4.1
(wetted explosives) are not part of the hierarchy list due to their unique properties. §173.2a(c).
If the hazardous material meets the definition of one of these hazard classes or divisions, then
that class or division takes precedence.
Hierarchy Class/Div. Description
1. 7 Radioactive Material
2. 2.3 Poisonous gases
3. 2.1 Flammable gas
4. 2.2 Nonflammable gas
5. 6.1 Poison inhalation hazard, liquids (PG I)
6. 4.2 Pyrophoric material
7. 4.1 Self reactive material
8. The Precedence of Hazard Table, shown on the following page, must be used for any
material meeting the Hazard Class or Division definitions of more than one of the
following "Hierarchy 8" materials:
3 Flammable liquids,
8 Corrosive materials,
4.1 Flammable solids,
4.2 Spontaneously combustible materials,
4.3 Dangerous when wet,
5.1 Oxidizers,
6.1 Poisonous liquids and solids,
9. Combustible liquids
10. 9 Miscellaneous hazardous materials
If the primary Hazard Class or Division is not determined properly, the shipping description,
labeling, marking, and possibly packaging and placarding will also be wrong.

the material must be classified as Class 8.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-47 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
HAZARD PRECEDENCE EXAMPLES
1. The primary hazard class for a liquid meeting the definition of a Class 8 PGII and a Class
3 PGII would be 3.
2. The primary hazard class for a liquid with a flash point of 80°F, and a boiling point
105°F (Class 3 PG III) that also had an oral toxicity LD50 of 49 mg/kg (Division 6.1 PG
II) would be 6.1.
3. The same procedure would be used to determine the primary hazard class for a hazardous
material that met the definition of three hazard classes or divisions under "hierarchy 8".
The following table may assist in ranking the hazard classes or divisions when the
hazardous material meets the definition of three hazard classes or divisions.
If a liquid met the definition of: Division 6.1, PGII (based on oral toxicity data); 8, PG II; and 3,
PG II; the primary hazard class would be 3. Division 6.1 and Class 8 would be subsidiary
hazards.

DOT HAZARDOUS MATERIALS CLASSIFICATION GENERAL RULES
1. First reference the hazardous material in the Hazardous Materials Table (HMT) (Appendix 2)
you r work may be done for you.
2. If the material is a diluted mixture or solution make sure it presents the same hazards as the
listing in the HMT. “One drop of Hydrochloric acid in a billion gallons of water is water, not
a Class 8).
3. If the material is not listed in the HMT, research the chemical properties and determine if the
material meets the definition of one or more of the 21 different hazard classes or divisions.
4. If the material meets the definition of more than one hazard class, use the hierarchy list and
precedence of hazard table to determine what the primary hazard is.
5. If the material is a waste and was classified as a hazardous waste, it will also be regulated as
a hazardous material. Remember, the definitions for hazard class 9 was a hazardous waste
that does not meet the definition of any other hazard class is class 9. A HAZARDOUS
WASTE IS ALWAYS A HAZARDOUS MATERIAL unless the hazardous waste is not
required to be manifested by the EPA and it does not meet the definition of Classes 1 through
8.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-48 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
DOT SHIPPING DESCRIPTION PREPARATION
THE HAZARDOUS MATERIALS TABLE
After the Hazardous Waste, Substance and Materials classifications have been completed, the
next step is to bring the three classifications together and prepare a shipping description. The
parts of the shipping description will be obtained with the use of the HMT. This section will
describe the information found in each column of the table.
COLUMN 1 – Symbols Column contains five symbols (+, A, D, I, W)
+ The plus (+) sign fixes the proper shipping name, hazard class and packing group for that
entry without regard to whether the material meets the definition of that class, packing
group or any other hazard class definition. When the plus sign is assigned to a proper
shipping name in Column (1) of the § 172.101 Table, it means that the material is known
to pose a risk to humans. When a plus sign is assigned to mixtures or solutions containing
a material where the hazard to humans is significantly different from that of the pure
material or where no hazard to humans is posed, the material may be described using an
alternative shipping name that represents the hazards posed by the material.
A The letter ‘‘A’’ denotes a material that regulated when shipped by aircraft, unless the
material is a hazardous substance or a hazardous waste in which case it is regulated by all
modes of transportation.
W The letter ‘‘W’’ denotes a material that is regulated when shipped by vessel, unless the
material is a hazardous substance or a hazardous waste in which case it is regulated by all
modes of transportation.
D The letter “D” identifies proper shipping names which are appropriate for describing
materials for domestic transportation.
I The letter “I” identifies proper shipping names which are appropriate for describing
materials in international transportation as well as domestic transportation.
G The letter “G” identifies proper shipping names for which one or more technical names
must be entered in parentheses, in association with the basic description.
COLUMN 2 – This column identifies the proper shipping name. As will be discussed later,
the shipping name must appear on shipping papers and package markings just as shown in the
table unless specifically authorized to be modified.
COLUMN 3 – This column identifies the primary hazard class or division. If the material
meets the definition of more than one hazard class, subsidiary hazards will be shown in
column 6. If the entry is “Forbidden” it may not be transported.
COLUMN 4 – Shows the identification number. UN stands for United Nations and identifies
shipping names appropriate for international shipments. NA stands for North America
identifies proper shipping names for domestically and to and from Canada.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-49 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
COLUMN 5 – This column lists the packing group. Class 2, 7, Division 6.2 and ORM-D do
not have packing group designations. PACKING GROUPS I, II, AND III INDICATE
THE DEGREE OF DANGER PRESENTED BY THE MATERIAL IN THAT
HAZARD CLASS (GREAT, MEDUIM AND MINOR RESPECTIVELY). Hazardous
substances with a shipping name preceded by an “A” or a “W” in the symbols column will be
assigned to packing group III. The correct hazard communication information and packaging
is determined by selecting the proper Hazard Class or Division and packing group. §172.101
(f).
COLUMN 6 – Lists the labels which are required to be placed on the package. The fist label
listed represents the primary hazard and the second label listed represents the subsidiary
hazard. §172.101(g) NOTE: ADDITIONAL LABELING MAY ALSO BE REQUIRED.
COLUMN 7 – specifies provisions applicable to hazardous materials. Special provisions are
located in §172.102 (see Appendix 6). The numerical codes apply to all nodes of
transportation, where the alpha numeric codes generally apply as follows:
A Air transportation only
B Bulk packagings
H Highway transportation only
IB Intermediate Bulk Container
IP Intermediate Bulk Packaging
N Non bulk packaging only
R Rail Only
T IM portable tanks only
W Water transportation only
For example: the shipping name “bromine” has 16 special provisions. If a 1-pint bottle of
bromine was to be shipped by highway, the only applicable provisions that must be referenced
are 1, N34 and N43:
1 “This material is poisonous by inhalation, meets the criteria in 173.133(a) (2) of
this subchapter for division 2.3, Hazard Zone A or division 6.1 PG I Hazard Zone
A and must be described as an inhalation hazard under the provisions of this
subchapter.”
N34 “Aluminum construction materials are not authorized for any part of a packaging
which is normally in contact with the hazardous material.”
N43 “Metal drums are permitted as single packaging only of nickel or monel.”
COLUMN 8 – Identifies the regulatory site (regulations included in Appendix 5) for
authorized packaging of the material identified in Column 2. The regulatory site will be 49
CFR 173.***, where *** identifies the specific section of the regulations that describe
required packaging. This column is broken into three sub columns as follows: 8A identifies
the regulatory site for exceptions to authorized packaging; 8B identifies the regulatory site for
non-bulk packaging (e.g., <119 gallons) and 8C identifies the regulatory site for bulk
packaging (e.g., > 119 gallons).
SET Environmental, Inc. T-50 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
COLUMN 9 – Refers to quantity limitations for transportation by passenger or cargo aircraft.
The word forbidden in column 9A means that the material may not be shipped by passenger
aircraft or rail. If the word forbidden also appears in Column 9 B the material may not be
shipped by cargo aircraft. If the word forbidden appears in 9A but a quantity limit appears in
9B then the material may be shipped by cargo aircraft only. See page T-84 (Item 7) of this
text for an additional labels that must be affixed to the package. To ship any hazardous
material by air, you must also comply with: the “general requirement for transportation by
aircraft” at 49 CFR §173.27; the International Air Transport Association (IATA) Dangerous
Goods Regulations and specific requirements of the carrier such as UPS and Federal Express.
COLUMN 10 - Refers to the storage requirements aboard vessels.
THE PROPER SHIPPING DESCRIPTION
Now that we have covered the hazardous materials table we can begin to prepare the proper
shipping description.
The proper shipping description consists of six (7) distinct parts. Items 1 through 4 must
appear in the following order with nothing interspersed other than technical names authorized
to be placed between the shipping name and the hazard class/division. §172.202(b) and (d)
1. Identification Number
2. Proper Shipping Name
3. Hazard Class or Division Number
4. (Subsidiary Hazard Class).
5. Packing Group
6. Additional Descriptors
7. Volume
THE PROPER SHIPPING NAME
A proper shipping description begins by choosing the correct shipping name. If the wrong
shipping name is chosen, the entire shipping description will be wrong. The basic rule in
choosing the correct shipping name is to choose the most descriptive shipping name without
providing misleading information. Choosing the most descriptive shipping name will enable
hazardous materials responders to react properly to an incident.
Use the following order to choose the proper shipping name.
1. Pure or Technically Pure Chemicals
If the chemical for which the shipping description is being prepared is technically pure or a
commercial grade and that chemical is listed in column2, then that is the proper shipping
name.
Example: The proper shipping name for Hexane would be “Hexane”.
• Isomers
SET Environmental, Inc. T-51 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
As long as an isomer is not specifically listed in the HMT, the listed shipping name in
column 2 of the hazardous materials table can be used for all isomers of the listed
shipping name that have the same primary hazard class, subsidiary hazard class, and
packing group. §172.101(c)(14)
Example 1: When to Use
p-Dibromobenzene, o-Dibromobenzene and m-Dibrombenzene could all be
shipped under the shipping name Dibromobenzene.
Example2: When Not to Use
p-Dichlorobenzene could not be shipped under the shipping name o-
Dichlorobenzene since o-Dichlorobenzene is a specific isomer listed in the
HMT.
Hydrates
As long as a hydrate is not specifically listed in the HMT, the listed shipping name of an
anhydrous material in column 2 of the HMT can be used for hydrates of the anhydrous
material that have the same primary hazard class, subsidiary hazard class, and packing
group. §172.101(c)(15)
2. Mixtures or Solutions
If the chemical for which the shipping description is being prepared is a combination of a
chemical identified in column 2 and one or more non-hazardous chemicals then the chemical
name in column 2 followed by the word mixture or solution is the correct choice
(172.101(c)(10). If this option is used the following conditions apply:
a. The packaging specified in column 8 is appropriate for the physical state (package
approved for solids and not liquids) of the material.
If the material is a liquid but the authorized packaging applies to solids under
§§173.211,212,213,240 or 242, then you may use the alternate authorized packagings
for liquids under §§173.201,202,203,241 or 243 respectively §172.101(I)(4).
b. The shipping description does not indicate that the proper shipping name applies
to only pure or technically pure material.
c. The material meets the definition of the primary and subsidiary hazards and the
packing group.
d. There is not a significant change in the emergency response measures to be taken.
e. The material continues to meet the definition of a poison inhalation hazard if it
was identified as a poison inhalation hazard in column 7 of the hazardous material
table.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-52 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
f. The material can be more appropriately described under a generic intended
application name such as “Coating Solution”, “Extracts Flavoring”, “Compound
cleaning liquid”.
Example: A mixture of hexane lubrication oil and water with a flash point <73°F and
a boiling point >95°F would have the proper shipping name “Waste
hexane mixture”.
Do not use the “mixture or solution” description if the mixture or solution contains more
than one hazardous material or if the mixture does not meet the criteria (a through e)
above.
Example: If would be incorrect to identify a solution of ethanol and water that was
so dilute that it exhibited a flash point of 180°F as “Waste ethanol
solution, 3, UN1170, PGII”.
Example: It would also be incorrect to describe a corrosive solution of hydrochloric
acid and hexane if it exhibited a flash point of 73°F and a boiling point
>95°F as only “Waste hydrochloric acid, 8, (3), UN1789, PHII” because
the flammability hazard would not have been disclosed in the shipping
name entry. A more descriptive shipping name could be chosen in each
case (see number 7 below).
5. Chemical Usage Name
If the technical name is not identified in column 2 but the shipping name which describes the
intended application is, then that is the correct choice. §172.101(c) (10)(I)(F)
Example: Coating Solution, or Compound Cleaning Liquid
6. Generic Descriptions
If the chemical name is not identified in column 2 or it consists of more than one hazardous
material and can best be described by a generic chemical name then that is the correct choice.
§172.101 (c)(12)(ii)
Example: An alcohol not specifically listed in column 2 would be best described as
“Waste Alcohols, n.o.s.”
7. Multiple Hazardous Materials
If the material is not identified by chemical name, usage name or generic chemical name in
column 2 and/or meets the definition of one or more than one hazard class then a generic
shipping name corresponding to the primary and subsidiary hazard class or divisions is the
correct choice. §172.102 (c) (12) (iii)
Example: The solution of hydrochloric acid and hexane described above would have the
proper shipping name “Waste flammable liquid, corrosive, n.o.s., 3, UN2924,
PGII” (Assuming that the material causes full thickness destruction of intact
SET Environmental, Inc. T-53 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
skin tissue within an observation period of up to 14 days starting after the
exposure time of more than three minutes but not more than 60 minutes, has a
flash point between 73°F and 141°F and a boiling point>95°F).
When using generic shipping names you may also have to select a shipping name with the
words, “organic”, “inorganic”, “acid”, “base”, (i.e., Corrosive liquid, acidic, inorganic, n.o.s.)
These terms have the following meaning:
• Organic “a compound with carbon atoms bonded to other carbon, nitrogen or
hydrogen atoms”
• Inorganic “any pure element or any compound that does not have carbon atoms
bonded to other carbon nitrogen of hydrogen atoms.”
• Acid A substance which meets the definition of a corrosive material and for
aqueous solutions a substance which reveals a pH at the lower end of the
pH scale.
• Base A substance which meets the definition of a corrosive material and for
aqueous solutions a substance which reveals a pH at the upper end of the
pH scale.
Authorized Modifications of the Shipping Name
Only shipping names that are identified in column 2 may be used. The shipping name must
appear just like it is shown in column 2 with the following exceptions. §172.101 (c).
1. Either the singular or plural, lower case or capital letters may be used. §172.101(c)(1).
2. Punctuation marks and words in italics are optional. §172.1101(c)(1).
3. When the word “or” in italics is used between two names in Roman type either shipping
name may be used. §172.101 (c) (2).
Example: The Column 2 entry Bromotrifluoromethane or Refrigerant gas, R13B1 would be
entered on the shipping paper as:
Bromotrifluoromethane, 2.2, UN1009 or
Refrigerant gas, R13B1, 2.1, UN1009; but not as
Bromotrifluoromethane or Refrigerant gas, R13B1, 2.2, UN1009
4. The word poison or poisonous may be used interchangeably with the word toxic for domestic
transportation. §172.101(c)(3)
5. The abbreviation "n.o.i" which means "not otherwise indexed" or "n.o.i.b.n." which means
"not otherwise indexed by name" may be used interchangeably with "n.o.s." which means
"not otherwise specified". §172.101 (c) (3)
6. When one entry references another entry by the use of the word "see", either entry may be
SET Environmental, Inc. T-54 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
used as the proper shipping name as long as both entries are in Roman type. §172.101 (c) (5)
Example: For the "Carbolic acid see Phenol, solid or Phenol, molten entry, the
shipping name Carbolic acid could not be used because it is in italics.
Example: For the Ethyl alcohol see Ethanol entry either shipping name could be
used.
7. When the shipping name includes a concentration range the actual concentration may be used
if it falls within the range specified. §172.101 (c) (6)
8. The prefix "mono" is optional. §172.101 (c) (7)
9. The word "liquid" or "solid" may be added to a proper shipping name when a hazardous
material specifically listed by name may, due to differing physical states, be a liquid or solid.
When the packaging specified in Column 8 is inappropriate for the physical state of the
material, the following table should be used to determine the appropriate packaging section.
§172.101(c)(8) and §172.101(I)(4).
10. The word "waste" must always precede the shipping name for shipments of hazardous waste
(as defined by RCRA) unless the word waste is already part of the proper shipping name
(§172.101 (c)(9)). The word waste must not precede the shipping name if it does not meet
the definition of a hazardous waste. The easiest way to remember when to add the word
waste is: “if you assigned a RCRA waste code (e.g., D001, F001, and U001), then add the
word waste to the beginning of the shipping name”.
Example: (1) Waste phenol, (2) Hazardous waste, solid, n.o.s.
HAZARD CLASS AND IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS
Once the proper shipping name and technical names have been determined, the next step is to
add the primary hazard class the packing group and identification numbers. If the proper
shipping name was chosen, this step is easy. The hazard class or division will appear in Column
3, the identification number in column 4 and the packing group in Column 5 directly to the right
of the proper shipping name in Column 2.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-55 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
ADDITIONAL DESCRIPTORS
Additional descriptors are an integral part of the shipping description. There are eight additional
descriptors that we will cover in this course.
1. Special Permit Notations
Each shipping description associated with a Special Permit must bear the notation "DOT-
SP" followed by the special permit number assigned. This notation must clearly identify
which shipping description on the manifest it represents. To this end, the exemption
notation may appear in section 14 of the Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest with a
reference to the line (9b#) with which it is associated; or, the exemption notation may be
placed at the end of each shipping description it applies to. §172.203 (a)
Each shipping paper issued in connection with a shipment made under an exemption or
special permit issued prior to October 1, 2007, may bear the notation "DOT-E" followed
by the number assigned.
2. Limited quantities
The description for a material offered for transportation as "limited quantity, must include
the words "Limited Quantity'' or "Ltd Qty'' following the basic description. §172.203(b).
See page 64 of this text for a discussion on how to ship material as a “Limited Quantity.
3. Empty Packaging Notations
The proper shipping description for empty containers which once held a hazardous
material may include the words "Residue: Last Contained" at the end of the shipping
description. §172.203 (e)
4. Technical Names
Technical names are those names that are commonly used in technical and scientific
texts, journals, and handbooks. §172.203 (k)
Technical names are required for:
Hazardous Substances
N.O.S. and other Generic Descriptions
Marine Pollutants, and
The same technical name need not be repeated (i.e., once for generic descriptions and
again because it is a hazardous substance).
When a technical name is required, it must appear in parenthesis after the shipping name
or at the end of the basic description. Although the hazardous materials regulations allow
the technical name to be added after the shipping name or at the end of the basic
description, when shipping by air the technical name may only be placed after the
shipping name. For this reason it is recommended that the technical name for generic
SET Environmental, Inc. T-56 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
descriptions always be placed after the shipping name.
Technical Names must be added to shipping descriptions for each shipping name
preceded by the letter "G" in the symbols column of the Hazardous Materials Table.
If a waste contains only one hazardous material, and the technical name is not part of the
shipping name, then only list one technical name.
If the waste contains more than one hazardous material, then list at least two technical
names which represent the predominant hazards:
Example: UN2924, Waste flammable liquids, corrosive, n.o.s.
(Hexane, Hydrochloric Acid),
3 (8), PGII
In this example, since the hazardous material represents two different hazards
(flammability and corrosivity), identify the technical name most predominantly causing
each hazard (i.e., one chemical name for class 3 and another for class 8). Although DOT
does not express this requirement clearly in the regulations, it is a requirement of the UN
Recommendations from which DOT establishes the Hazardous Material Regulations.
The technical name rule for generic descriptions does not apply to:
a. Lab Packs; (Note: shipping descriptions for lab packs must still include technical
names for hazardous substances as described above) §173.12 (d)
b. Hazardous substances properly described as "Environmentally hazardous
substances liquid or solid, n.o.s. with the general hazard class 9 provided the
material is described as required for hazardous substances as discussed previously
or at 49 CFR 172.203 (c). §172.203 (k) (4) (I)
or,
Hazardous wastes properly described as "Hazardous waste liquid or, solid, n.o.s.
with the general hazard class 9, provided the EPA hazardous waste number (D-
code) or waste stream number (F-code or K-code) in association with the basic
description.
Example: RQ NA3077, Hazardous waste solid, n.o.s., 9, PGIII, (D008).
c. Samples shipped for analysis in order to determine the hazard class.
§172.203(k)(4)(ii)
d. Chemical element or chemical group n.o.s. descriptions when the chemical
element or group is primarily responsible for the material meeting the hazard class
or division. For example, if the shipping name "Cyanides, inorganic, n.o.s." was
used you would not have to include the specific technical names for the inorganic
cyanides in the container. §172.203(k)(4)(iii)
SET Environmental, Inc. T-57 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
5. Hazardous Substances and Reportable Quantities (RQ)
If the material meets the definition of a hazardous substance then the letters "RQ" must
precede the shipping name or follow the basic description as shown below. If the
technical name of the hazardous substance does not appear as part of the shipping name,
the technical name or EPA code identifying the hazardous substance must appear in
parenthesis after the shipping name or basic description as shown below. §172.203(c)
The shipper must identify at least two hazardous substances, if the hazardous material is
composed of two or more hazardous substances. If the hazardous material is composed
of more than two hazardous substances, the two hazardous substances with the lowest
reportable quantities must be identified. Federal Register Volume 61, Number 105,
Thursday, May 30, 1996, page 27167.
The hazardous substance notation can be disclosed in the shipping description in two
ways:
a. RQ <Identification Number>, <Shipping Name>, <Hazardous Substance
Technical Name(s)>, <Hazard Class>, <Packing Group> or
b. <Identification Number>, <Shipping Name>, <Hazard Class>, <Packing Group>
RQ <Hazardous Substance Technical Names or EPA Code>
6. Marine Pollutants
A marine pollutant is defined as "A hazardous material which is listed in Appendix B to
the 172.101 Hazardous Material Table (See Appendix 4) and when in a mixture or
solution of one or more marine pollutants equals or exceeds the following concentrations:
a. One percent by weight for severe marine pollutants or
b. Ten percent by weight for other marine pollutants.
Except for motor vehicle transportation of non-bulk packagings, if the proper shipping
name does not identify the component which makes it a marine pollutant, then the name
of the component which makes the material a marine pollutant must be added after the
shipping name in parenthesis. If there is more than 1 marine pollutant in the waste, then
identify at least two marine pollutants in greatest quantity or that present the greatest
hazard.
If the material meets the definition of a marine pollutant then the words "Marine
Pollutant" must be added at the end of the shipping description. §172.203(l)
7. Poison-Inhalation Hazards
If the outer drum holds any quantity of a material meeting the definition of a poison-
inhalation hazard, the words "Toxic Inhalation Hazard" and "Zone A, B, C or D" for gasses
or "Zone A or B" for liquids must be added after the basic description. To determine if the
material is a PIH, look up the shipping name in column 2 of the hazardous materials table
SET Environmental, Inc. T-58 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
(Tab 2) and follow across to column 7. The numbers 1, 2, 3 and 4 appearing in column 7,
mean the material is a poison inhalation hazard in Zones A, B, C and D respectively. Special
provisions 5, 6 and 13 also refer to poison inhalation hazard requirements. Chemicals that
are identified as Poison Inhalation Hazard are also summarized in Appendix 7. Note: the
technical name for the poison-inhalation hazard must also be added to the basic description in
parenthesis if the letter “G” appears in the symbols column of the HMT. §172.203 (m) (3)
8. Organic Peroxides and Self Reactive Material
In addition to the technical name requirements for these hazardous materials (i.e., shipping
names for these hazardous materials are preceded by the letter "G" in column 1 of the
Hazardous materials table), you must also include the following information.
Control and Emergency Temperatures
The control temperature and emergency temperatures must be included on the shipping paper
for any Division 5.2 (organic peroxide) or 4.1 (self reactive) which is required to be shipped
under controlled temperature.
Concentration or Concentration Range
When §§173.224 and 173.225 identify a self reactive material or organic peroxide with more
than one concentration, the appropriate concentration range or specific concentration must be
included next to the technical name for the self reactive material or organic peroxide. (49
CFR 173)
Competent Authority and Samples
See §172.203(o) for uncommon additional description requirements (i.e., competent
authority approval statement and the word sample) for self-reactive material and organic
peroxides.
9. Samples
Although addition of the word “sample” is a required “modification of the shipping name”
and not “an additional descriptor as found in §172.230) it would be applied like an
additional descriptor, and has been included in this section of this manual for that reason.
The word “Sample” must be added to the end of the shipping name or basic description for
samples shipped in accordance with 49 CFR 172.101(c)(11).
There are more additional descriptor requirements for: radioactive material, transportation by
air, transportation by rail, transportation of cargo tanks by highway, transportation by water,
and transportation of elevated temperature material; which can be referenced at §173.203 (d),
(f), (g), (h), (I), and (n) respectively.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-59 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
EXAMPLE FOR FUN
If a 55-gallon drum of unused waste (500 pounds) contained the following mixture:
1. Acetone ............................................................................................................................... 50% (250 pounds)
2. Sodium cyanide ....................................................................................................................... 5% (25 pounds)
3. Sodium hydroxide ............................................................................................................... 40% (200 pounds)
4. Lead oxide ............................................................................................................................... 5% (25 pounds)
And exhibits or is believed (based on knowledge of the waste) to exhibit the following characteristics:
1. Flash point = 70°F, Boiling point = 105°F
2. Believed to exhibit an oral LD50 of 4 mg/kg
3. Believed to exhibit virtually the same corrosive properties as Sodium hydroxide alone
4. TCLP analysis for lead = 15 mg/l
5. Analysis of reactive cyanides = 1000 ppm
HAZARDOUS WASTE CLASSIFICATION
The waste would be classified as:
1. D001 (Flash point < 140°F)
2. D002 (pH > 12.5)
3. D003 (Reactive cyanides > 250 ppm)
4. D008 (TCLP for lead > 5 mg/l)
Note: F and K codes would not apply since the material is unused and U and P codes do not apply because
no one constituent is the sole active ingredient.
HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE DETERMINATION
The reportable quantities for each constituent would be:
Constituent Weight of
Entire
Waste
Weight of
Each
Constituent
RQ for Each
Constituent DOT Hazardous Substance
(Y or N)
Does Column 3 equal or
exceed column 4?
Quantity required to be

Acetone 500 250 5000 No 10,000
Sodium cyanide 500 25 10 Yes 200
Sodium hydroxide 500 200 1000 No 2,500
Lead Oxide 500 25 Not listed N/A N/A
In this case reporting under CERCLA would be required when 200 pounds of the material were released to the
environment which equates to releasing 10 pounds of Sodium cyanide. Since the container holds more than 10
pounds of Sodium cyanide (25 pounds are in the container) Sodium cyanide must be identified as a hazardous
substance on the shipping paper and as will be discussed later must be marked on the drum. Remember you must
also consider the reportable quantities associated with EPA waste codes.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-60 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
The reportable quantity for hazardous characteristics would be:
Characteristic RQ Is this characteristic caused
by only listed hazardous
substances?
Weight of

Container
Hazardous Substance?
(Yes or No)
(If the answer in column 3
is "No" does column 4

500
N/A
D002 100 Yes (Sodium hydroxide) N/A
D003 100 Yes (Sodium cyanide) N/A
D008 10 No (Lead oxide) Yes
With this information, reporting under CERCLA would be required when 10 pounds of the material is released to
the environment. Note that the reporting threshold for D008 in this waste is much lower than that required for the
Sodium cyanide component. Since the container holds more than 1 pound of D008 material (i.e., drum of waste
contains 500 pounds of D008 waste) the code D008 must be identified as hazardous substance on the shipping
paper. In addition, as will be discussed later, the letters RQ and D008 must also be marked on the container.
Therefore the hazardous substances in this container would be:
1. Sodium cyanide
2. D008
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS DETERMINATION
The waste would meet the hazard class or divisions:
1. 3, Packing Group II (Flash point < 73°F and boiling point > 95°F)
2. 8, Packing Group II (Waste believed to have the same corrosive properties as Sodium hydroxide)
3. 6.1, Packing Group I (Oral LD50 5 mg/kg)
The order of precedence would be:
Primary: 3
Subsidiary: 6.1 and 8
Therefore the proper shipping description would be:
RQ UN1992, waste flammable liquid, toxic, corrosive n.o.s.
(Acetone, Sodium cyanide, Sodium hydroxide)
3, (6.1, 8), PGI, (D008).
or
UN1992, Waste flammable liquid, toxic, corrosive n.o.s.
(Acetone, Sodium hydroxide)
3, (6.1, 8), PGI, RQ (D008, Sodium Cyanide).
SET Environmental, Inc. T-61 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
PACKAGING
INTRODUCTION
Prior to the adoption of the HM-181 regulations, packagings had to be constructed to detailed
specifications; however, HM-181 regulations incorporate performance oriented packaging
standards or "POPs". This means that packagings must perform to certain minimum standards
without failing. Packagings may be subject to drop, leakproofness, hydrostatic pressure,
stacking, and vibration tests among others. Packagings intended to contain PGI materials must
pass more strenuous tests than either PGII or PGIII material. For example in the drop test, a
package rated to hold PGI material must be dropped from a height of 5.9 feet while drums rated
for PGII and PGIII material are required to be dropped from a height of 3.9 and 2.6 feet
respectively.
While it is not normally the responsibility of the shipper to ensure that the appropriate tests have
been performed on the packaging, it is the responsibility of the shipper to select a package that is
authorized for the hazardous material to be placed therein.
It is also the responsibility of the shipper to perform all functions necessary to bring the package
into compliance with 40 CFR parts 173 and 178, as identified by the packaging manufacturer or
subsequent distributor. Your package distributor should provide you with instructions on how to
properly close their packaging (e.g., the required amount of torque for a bung closure). The
shipper must follow these instructions. It is recommended that the shipper keep a copy of these
instructions on file for reference and in case an inspector requests to see them.
This section will cover the following topics:
Definitions
Packaging Selection,
Lab Pack Exceptions,
Salvage Drum Exception,
Overpack Exception and
Reuse of Packagings.
DEFINITIONS
Non-bulk Packaging - Has an internal volume of ≤ 119 gallons.
Intermediate Bulk Container (IBC) - means a rigid or flexible portable packaging, other than a
cylinder or portable tank, which is designed for mechanical handling.
Bulk Packaging - > 119 Gallons
SET Environmental, Inc. T-62 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
Large Packaging - “ a packaging that (1) Consists of an outer packaging that contains articles
or inner packagings; (2) Is designated for mechanical handling; (3) Exceeds 400 kg net mass or
450 liters (118.9 gallons) capacity; (4) Has a volume of not more than 3 cubic meters (m3)
(see § 178.801(i) of this subchapter); and (5) Conforms to the requirements as specified in §
173.36, and subparts P and Q of part 178 of this subchapter, as applicable.”
Consumer Commodity - "a material that is packaged and distributed in a form intended or
suitable for sale through retail sales agencies or instrumentalities for consumption by individuals
for purposes of personal care or household use. This term also includes drugs and medicine.
Combination Packaging - One or more inner packagings secured in a non-bulk outer packaging.
Single Packaging - A non-bulk packaging other than a combination packaging.
Composite Packaging - Consists of an outer package and an inner receptacle so that the outer
package and inner receptacle form an integral packaging (e.g., Fiber drum with poly liner).
Overpack - A closure used to provide protection or convenience in handling a package or to
consolidate two or more packages.
Salvage Packaging - "a special packaging conforming to §173.3 of this subchapter into which
damaged defective or leaking hazardous materials packages, or hazardous materials that have
spilled or leaked, are placed for purposes of transport for recovery or disposal."
Strong outer packaging - “ the outermost enclosure that provides protection against the
unintentional release of its contents. It is a packaging that is sturdy, durable, and constructed so
that it will retain its contents under normal conditions of transportation. In addition, a strong
outer packaging must meet the general packaging requirements of subpart B of part 173 of this
subchapter but need not comply with the specification packaging requirements in part 178 of the
subchapter.”
SELECTION
Once the proper shipping name is determined in Column 2 of the hazardous materials table
follow the table across to Column 8B (non-bulk packaging) or 8C (bulk packaging) for the
regulatory site of the packaging authorizations. In order to determine the authorized packaging
you must determine the packing group for the material to be shipped in addition to determining
the most descriptive shipping name.
In Column 8B or 8C you will see a number (e.g. 306) which represents the section in Part 173
where you will find a list of the authorized packages and any conditions which must be met. The
word "none" in either column signifies that the type of packaging (bulk or non-bulk) is not
authorized unless authorized in the special provisions column. Authorized packagings will be
represented in the form of a two, three or four character packaging identification code such as
1A1. The packaging identification code identifies (1) type of package (e.g. 1=Drum); (2)
material of construction (e.g. A=Metal); and (3) when appropriate, the category of packaging
(e.g. the numeral 1 following the codes 1A means the drum has a non-removable head. For each
proper shipping name there will be a variety of packaging identification codes. Authorized
packagings for some hazardous materials will be very general while others will be very specific.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-63 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
Typically the more hazardous a chemical, the more specific will be the packaging.
Example 1:
You wish to ship 110 gallons of a liquid paint waste in a non-bulk packaging. After analyzing
the waste you determined that the paint exhibited a flashpoint of 96°F and a boiling point of
180°F.
With this information you determined that the proper shipping description is:
RQ UN1263, Waste paint,
3; PGIII (D001)
The regulatory site for the authorized packaging in column 8(b) of the Hazardous Material Table
is 173.173. 173.173 references authorized packagings in 173.203 for this material. There are 34
authorized single packagings identified in 173.203(c) including 1A1 or 1A2.
Example 2:
You wish to ship pyrophoric material which is not specifically identified by chemical name in
the hazardous materials table. You determined that the most descriptive shipping description is:
UN2845, Waste pyrophoric liquids, organic, n.o.s.
4.2; PGI
Column 8 (b) of the Hazardous Materials Table identifies the regulatory site §173.181 for the
packaging authorizations. 173.181 authorizes the use of 1A2 steel drums with strong tight inner
metal cans not over 1 gallon capacity each closed by positive means not friction.
In addition the following requirements must be met:
1. Inner packagings must have no opening exceeding 1 inch diameter and must be
surrounded by a noncombustible cushioning material.
2. Net quantity of pyrophoric liquids may not exceed 2/3 of the rated capacity of the outer
drum. For example a 55 gallon drum may not contain more than 36 gallons of
pyrophoric liquids.
3. Each layer of inner containers must be separated by a metal plate in addition to
cushioning material.
Other Considerations in Package Selection
Even though a certain type of packaging is authorized under 49 CFR 173 it is the responsibility
of the shipper to ensure that the packaging is compatible with the hazardous material it will hold.
For example: 1A1 (closed-head steel drum) is an authorized packaging under §173.202 for the
shipping name Hydrochloric acid; however, Hydrochloric acid would corrode a steel drum
relatively quickly.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-64 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
UN SPECIFICATION CODES
The following is a list of descriptions which will help you to determine if the container meets the
packaging specifications for the material to be shipped.
Numerals indicating the type of package are as follows:
1 - Drum
2 - Wooden barrel
3 - Jerrican (metal/plastic packaging of rectangular or polygonal cross-section)
4 - Box
5 - Bag
6 - Composite package
7 - Pressure receptacle
A capital letter indicates material of construction.
A - steel
B - aluminum
C - natural wood
D - plywood
F - reconstituted wood
G - fiberboard
H - plastic
L - textile
M - paper (multiwall)
N - metal (other than steel or aluminum)
P - glass, porcelain or stoneware
The following numerals after 1A, 1B, 1H, 3A, 3H, 1N indicate:
1 - closed head
2 - open head
The following numerals after 2C indicate:
1 - bung type
2 - slack type (removable head)
The following numerals after 4C indicate:
1 - ordinary
2 - sift proof walls
The following numerals after 4H indicate:
1 - expanded plastic
2 - solid plastic
The following numerals after 5H or 5L woven plastic or textile bags indicate:
1 - unlined or non-coated
2 - sift proof
3 - water resistant
SET Environmental, Inc. T-65 Last Revision: December 28, 2020
The following numerals after 5M indicate:
1 - multi-wall
2 - multi-wall water-resistant
For composite packagings (i.e. a metal drum with a plastic liner to form a single packaging) two
letters will follow the first number. The first letter refers to the material of the inner receptacle
and the second for the material of the outer receptacle. Example - 6HA1 stands for composite
package consisting of a plastic receptacle within a protective steel drum.
For combination packagings only the code number for the outer packaging is used.
Once you have determined the authorized packaging you can verify that the drum you want to
use meets those specifications by the markings on the packagings. These markings may be
found on the top (non-removable head drums only), side or bottom of the packaging. Pursuant to
§178.3 for packages with a gross mass more than 30 kg, markings (as described below) must
appear on the top or side of the packaging.
Every reusable packaging liable to undergo a reconditioning process which might obliterate the
packaging marks must bear the marks specified in 178.503 (a)(1) through (a)(6) and (a)(9) [Items
1-6 and 9 below] in a permanent form (e.g., embossed) able to withstand the reconditioning
process.
1. The United Nations symbol

SET Environmental, Inc. T-90 Last Revision: June 24, 2020
MANIFEST SYSTEM
When preparing a hazardous waste manifest the first step is to choose the proper shipping form.
A bill of lading may be used for any material which does not meet the definition of a hazardous
waste. A uniform hazardous waste manifest must be used for any material meeting the definition
of a hazardous waste. Some states may require the use of state waste codes and or require the
submittal of manifest copies to the state agency. The Texas Commission on Environmental
Quality requires a Texas Waste Code to be placed in section 13 in two of the boxes reserved for
US EPA RCRA waste codes.
MANIFEST DISTRIBUTION
The manifest is a "cradle to grave" tracking paper and consists of six copies. Each copy of the
manifest and continuation sheet indicates how the copy must be distributed, as indicated below.
Certification
When the manifest is completed: the generator will sign the manifest in section 15 and make the
following certifications:
“…the content of this consignment are fully and accurately described above by the proper
shipping name, and are classified, packaged, marked and labeled/placarded, and are in all
respects in proper condition for transport according to applicable international governmental
regulations.” And
1. For Large Quantity Generators
“I have a program in place to reduce the volume and toxicity of waste generated to the
degree I have determined to be economically practicable and I have selected the
practicable method of treatment, storage or disposal currently available to me which
minimizes the present and future threat to human health or the environment.”
2. For Small Quantity Generators
“I have made a good faith effort to minimize my waste generation and select the best
waste management method that is available to me and that I can afford.”
Use of the Manifest (Tracking System)
1. The generator will also obtain the signature and date of acceptance from the first
transporter in line 1 of section 17. This acts like a receipt that the transporter has accepted
the hazardous waste – the first step in cradle to grave tracking. The generator must retain
this copy until the copy with a hand written signature of the receiving facility is obtained.
2. The first transporter will take the rest of the copies with the shipment. If the first
transporter delivers the waste to a second transporter, the second transporter will sign line
2 of section 17 and the first transporter will retain a photo copy as their receipt for a
period of at least three years. This process would be repeated for additional transporters;
SET Environmental, Inc. T-91 Last Revision: June 24, 2020
however transporter 3 and beyond will sign section 33 and 34 of the continuation sheet.
3. The last transporter will deliver the hazardous waste to the facility designated in section 8
of the manifest. The facility will sign section 20 of the manifest acknowledging
acceptance of the waste and provide the remaining bottom copy (5th copy) to the last
transporter.
4. The designated facility will retain the remaining bottom copy (4th copy) for their records.
Within 30 days of receipt, the designated facility will mail the remaining bottom copy
(3rd copy) to the generators mailing address specified in section 5 of the manifest.
Large quantity generators that do not receive the signed copy of the manifest within
35 days must contact the transporter or designated facility to determine the status of
the waste.
If the generator does not receive the signed copy of the manifest within 45 days (60
days for small quantity generators) they must submit an exception report to the
EPA.
5. When the generator receives the signed copy for the designated facility this completes the
cradle to grave tracking.
6. The remaining two copies may be distributed as indicated below, if required by the
origination state or receiving state:
Page 1: Designated facility to destination State
Page 2: Designated facility to generator State.
Retention of other Hazardous Material Shipping Papers
NOTE: All other shipping papers (e.g., hazardous materials bill of lading) used in conjunction
with the transportation of hazardous materials that are not hazardous wastes must be retained
by the hazmat receiver for at least one year and be retained by the hazmat shipper for at least
two years.
Completing the Hazardous Waste Manifest
The instructions for completing the uniform hazardous waste manifest can be found on the
reverse side of the form.
ITEM 1 Enter the generator's U.S. EPA twelve digit identification number or the State
generator identification number if the generator site does not have an EPA
identification number. The U.S. EPA identification number is not required for
shipments of non-regulated waste or waste generated by a Very Small quantity
generators (VSQG). For shipments from VSQGs to facilities in Texas enter the State
abbreviation followed by the acronym VSQG e.g., TXVSQG.

ITEM 14
1. Generators may enter any special handling or shipment-specific information
necessary for the proper management or tracking of the materials under the
generator's or other handler's business processes, such as waste profile numbers,
container codes, bar codes, or response guide numbers. Generators also may use
this space to enter additional descriptive information about their shipped
materials, such as chemical names, constituent percentages, physical state, or
specific gravity of wastes identified with volume units in Item 12.
2. This space may be used to record limited types of federally required information
for which there is no specific space provided on the manifest, including any
alternate facility designations; the manifest tracking number of the original
manifest for rejected wastes and residues that are re-shipped under a second
manifest; and the specification of PCB waste descriptions and PCB out-of-service
dates required under 40 CFR 761.207. Generators, however, cannot be required to
enter information in this space to meet state regulatory requirements.
ITEM 15
1. The generator must read, sign, and date the waste minimization certification
statement. In signing the waste minimization certification statement, those
generators who have not been exempted by statute or regulation from the duty to
make a waste minimization certification under section 3002(b) of RCRA are also
certifying that they have complied with the waste minimization requirements.
The Generator's Certification also contains the required attestation that the
shipment has been properly prepared and is in proper condition for transportation
(the shipper's certification). The content of the shipper's certification statement is
as follows: "I hereby declare that the contents of this consignment are fully and
accurately described above by the proper shipping name, and are classified,
packaged, marked, and labeled/placarded, and are in all respects in proper
condition for transport by highway according to applicable international and
national governmental regulations.
When a party other than the generator prepares the shipment for transportation,
this party may also sign the shipper's certification statement as the offeror of the
shipment.
2. Generator or Offeror personnel may preprint the words, "On behalf of" in the
signature block or may hand write this statement in the signature block prior to
signing the generator/offeror certification, to indicate that the individual signs as
the employee or agent of the named principal.
ITEM 16. International Shipments
SET Environmental, Inc. T-95 Last Revision: June 24, 2020
For export shipments, the primary exporter must check the export box, and enter
the point of exit (city and state) from the United States. For import shipments, the
importer must check the import box and enter the point of entry (city and state)
into the United States. For exports, the transporter must sign and date the manifest
to indicate the day the shipment left the United States. Transporters of hazardous
waste shipments must deliver a copy of the manifest to the U.S. Customs when
exporting the waste across U.S. borders.
ITEM 17 Enter the name of the first transporter accepting the waste. The transporter
acknowledges the acceptance of the waste described on the manifest by signing
and entering the date of receipt.
If applicable, complete for second transporter. Additional transporters may be
disclosed on continuation sheets.
Only one signature per transportation company is required. Signatures are not
required to track the movement of wastes in and out of transfer facilities, unless
there is a change of custody between transporters.
ITEM 18a This space must be completed by the disposal facility if there are any significant
discrepancies between the waste described on the manifest and the waste actually
received. Significant discrepancies include variation in piece count (10% for bulk
loads or 1 container for drum shipments) and variations of waste composition.
For rejected loads and residues, the TSDF will check the appropriate box if the
shipment is a rejected load (i.e., rejected by the designated and/or alternate facility
and is sent to an alternate facility or returned to the generator) or a regulated
residue that cannot be removed from a container. Enter the reason for the rejection
or the inability to remove the residue and a description of the waste. Also,
reference the manifest tracking number for any additional manifests being used to
track the rejected waste or residue shipment on the original manifest. Indicate the
original manifest tracking number in Item 14, the Special Handling Block and
Additional Information Block of the additional manifests.
ITEM 18b Alternate Facility (or Generator) for Receipt of Full Load Rejections
Enter the name, address, phone number, and EPA Identification Number of the
Alternate Facility which the rejecting TSDF has designated, after consulting with
the generator, to receive a fully rejected waste shipment. In the event that a fully
rejected shipment is being returned to the generator, the rejecting TSDF may enter
the generator's site information in this space. This field is not to be used to
forward partially rejected loads or residue waste shipments.
ITEM 18c Alternate Facility (or Generator) Signature
The authorized representative of the alternate facility (or the generator in the
event of a returned shipment) must sign and date this field of the form to
acknowledge receipt of the fully rejected wastes or residues identified by the
SET Environmental, Inc. T-96 Last Revision: June 24, 2020
initial TSDF.
ITEM 19 Hazardous Waste Report Management Method Codes
Enter the most appropriate Hazardous Waste Report Management Method code
for each waste listed in Item 9. The Hazardous Waste Report Management
Method code is to be entered by the first treatment, storage, or disposal facility
(TSDF) that receives the waste and is the code that best describes the way in
which the waste is to be managed when received by the TSDF.
ITEM 20 Designated Facility Owner or Operator Certification of Receipt (Except as Noted
in Item 18a)
Enter the name of the person receiving the waste on behalf of the owner or
operator of the facility. That person must acknowledge receipt or rejection of the
waste described on the Manifest by signing and entering the date of receipt or
rejection where indicated. Since the Facility Certification acknowledges receipt of
the waste except as noted in the Discrepancy Space in Item 18a, the certification
should be signed for both waste receipt and waste rejection, with the rejection
being noted and described in the space provided in Item 18a. Fully rejected wastes
may be forwarded or returned using Item 18b after consultation with the
generator. Enter the name of the person accepting the waste on behalf of the
owner or operator of the alternate facility or the original generator. That person
must acknowledge receipt or rejection of the waste described on the Manifest by
signing and entering the date they received or rejected the waste in Item 18c.
Partially rejected wastes and residues must be re-shipped under a new manifest, to
be initiated and signed by the rejecting TSDF as offeror of the shipment.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-97 Last Revision: June 24, 2020
NOTIFICATIONS FOR WASTE RESTRICTED FROM LAND DISPOSAL
A Notification for Waste Restricted from Land Disposal is required for shipments of hazard
waste identified in 40 CFR 268 that are restricted from land disposal.
A notification is only required to be submitted with the first shipment of the waste. Re-
notification would only be required if the waste was shipped to a different facility or a change in
the waste occurred which would cause a change in the treatment standard for the waste. NOTE:
Since this change, by the federal government, is considered less restrictive than current
regulations, the generator may still be required to submit a notification with each shipment.
Pursuant to 40 CFR 268.7(a), if the waste is restricted from land disposal, the notification must
include the following information:
1. The manifest document number associated with the first shipment of the waste. According
to Federal Regulations this is the generators USEPA Identification number plus the unique
five digit number assigned to the manifest by the generator. According to Texas Regulations,
this is the pre-printed number found in section A. of the manifest.
2. EPA hazardous waste number(s).
3. The appropriate subcategory if applicable. Subcategories are identified in column 2 of the
Treatment Standards Table (Appendix 9).
4. The constituents of concern for F001-F005 waste or characteristically hazardous waste
required to be treated for Underlying Hazardous Constituent.*
5. Whether the waste is a wastewater or a non-wastewater. Wastewaters are wastes that
contain less than 1% by weight Total Organic Carbon (TOC) and less than 1% by weight
Total Suspended Solids (TSS). Therefore, non-wastewaters contain more than either
1%TOC or TSS.*
6. Waste analysis data, when available.*
7. For contaminated soil subject to LDRs as provided in 268.49(a), the constituents subject to
treatment** as described in 268.49(d), and the following statement: This contaminated soil [
]does, or [ ]does not] contain listed hazardous waste and [ ] does, or [ ]does not exhibit a
characteristic of hazardous waste and [ ] is subject to, or [ ] complies with the soil treatment
standards as provided by §264.49(c) or the universal treatment standards.
8. In addition to the information required above, one of the following certification may also be
required.
Restricted Waste That Meets the Treatment Standards at the Point of Generation
I certify under penalty of law that I personally have examined and am familiar with the waste
through analysis and testing or through knowledge of the waste to support this certification
that the waste complies with the treatment standards specified in 40 CFR part 268 subpart D.
I believe that the information I submitted is true, accurate, and complete. I am aware that
there are significant penalties for submitting a false certification, including the possibility of
SET Environmental, Inc. T-98 Last Revision: June 24, 2020
a fine and imprisonment.
Certification for the Alternative Lab Pack Treatment Standard
I certify under penalty of law that I personally have examined and am familiar with the waste
and that the lab pack contains only wastes that have not been excluded under appendix IV to
40 CFR part 268 and that this lab pack will be sent to a combustion facility in compliance
with the alternative treatment standards for lab packs at 40 CFR 268.42(c). I am aware that
there are significant penalties for submitting a false certification, including the possibility of
fine or imprisonment.
Certification for De-characterized Wastes Requiring Treatment for Underlying
Hazardous Constituents
I certify under penalty of law that the waste has been treated in accordance with the
requirements of 40 CFR 268.40 to remove the hazardous characteristic. This decharacterized
waste contains underlying hazardous constituents that require further treatment to meet
universal treatment standards. I am aware that there are significant penalties for submitting a
false certification, including the possibility of fine and imprisonment.
NOTE: Additional certifications are required for waste subject the land disposal restriction
treatment standards which have been treated to meet the treatment standards - see 40 CFR
268.7(a)(3), 268.7(b)(4), 268.7(d)(3).
* Items marked with an "*" are not required to be placed on a notification for waste which
is managed under the alternative lab pack treatment standard.
** For contaminated soil "Constituents subject to treatment means any constituent listed in
40 CFR 268.48, Table UTS - Universal Treatment Standards that are reasonable expected
to be present in any given volume of contaminated soil, except fluoride, selenium,
sulfides, vanadium, and zinc, and are present at concentrations greater than ten time the
universal treatment standard." 40 CFR 268.49(d)
California List Waste
The notification requirements for identifying California List waste were removed in the Phase IV
May 12, 1997 Federal Register; however, this change is also less restrictive than current
standards and cannot be omitted by the generator until their state agency adopts and is authorized
to implement the change.

PLACARDING
For Non Bulk Packaging Shipments
Once all manifests for a shipment of hazardous materials have been completed, the next step is to
determine how to placard the transport vehicle. To make this determination, reference 49 CFR
Part 172 Subpart F.

2. Subsidiary Placarding Requirement
Placarding is based on the primary hazard. However, there are two subsidiary hazards that
will affect the required placarding on a vehicle. If the subsidiary hazard is an toxic
inhalation hazard in Zone A or B the subsidiary hazard and its primary hazard must be
placarded. If the subsidiary hazard is 4.3 you must placard for the subsidiary hazard
but are not required to placard for its primary hazard, unless the gross mass of the
primary hazard is over 2500 pounds.

1. Bulk Packaging
If any of the material identified in Table 2 is contained within a bulk packaging, the vehicle
must be placarded for the specific primary hazard.
2. Add up the weights of all hazardous material in non-bulk packaging shown on Table 2.
If the weight of all Table 2 material, in non-bulk packaging is less than 1001 pounds, no
Table 2 placards or the Dangerous placard is required.
If the weight of all Table 2 hazardous material, in non-bulk packaging, exceeds 1001 pounds,
all material offered for transportation must be “represented” by a placard. This means that
the shipper may be able to use a dangerous placard or they may be required to display
placard(s) for specific hazards.
3. Add Up the Aggregate Gross Weights for Each Primary Hazard Class or Division
Determine the aggregate gross weight (i.e., weight of the hazardous material and packaging)
for each individual primary hazard class in non-bulk packaging identified in Table 2.
4. Shipper Offers 1,001 Pounds of Only One Hazard Class or Division
If the shipper offers only one hazardous class or division in non-bulk packaging, from Table
2 and the quantity equals or exceeds 1,001 pounds, the specific placard for that hazard must
be displayed.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-101 Last Revision: June 24, 2020
5. Any Single Primary Hazard Class Over 2,205 Pounds
If the shipper offers 2,205 pounds or more of any individual hazard class, the specific placard
for that hazard must be properly displayed.
6. Two of More Hazard Classes Each Less Than 2,205 Pounds
If the shipper offers two or more hazard classes or divisions from Table 2 in non-bulk
packaging and each individual hazard class or division is less than 2,205 pounds, a
“DANGEROUS PLACARD” may be used in place of specific placards. 49 CFR 172.504(b)
7. Additional Responsibility for the Carrier (AKA: The Transporter)
After properly placarding as described above for individual shippers, if the carrier collects
hazardous material from more than one shipper, additional SPECIFIC or DANGEROUS
placards may be required.
Once the aggregate gross weight of all Table 2 material in non-bulk packaging from multiple
pick-ups equals or exceeds 1001 pounds all hazardous materials on the vehicle must be
“represented” by a placard, even if each individual shipper offered less than 1001 pounds
of hazardous material.
If there are two or more hazard classes or divisions in non-bulk packaging from Table 2 that
have not already been placarded (i.e., not already required), a DANGEROUS placard may be
used.
If there is only one hazard class or division in the vehicle and the vehicle is not already
placarded (e.g., multiple shippers offered less than 1001 pounds of Class 3 material in non-
bulk packaging) the specific placard for that hazard must be displayed.
Example 1: The shipper offers 900 pounds of Class 3 and 500 pounds of a Class 8. In this
case, the combined weights of all Table 2 hazardous material exceeds 1001
pounds so all hazardous material offered for transportation must be
represented by a placard. Since neither hazard class exceeds 2,205 pounds,
DANGEROUS placards could be used. The shipper could have also used
Flammable Liquid and Corrosive placards.
Example 2: The shipper offers 3000 pounds of Class 3 and 500 pounds of Class 8. In this
case the shipper must placard FLAMMABLE LIQUID because the quantity of
Class 3 exceeds 2205 pounds. Since the shipper offered more than 1001
pounds of hazardous material, all hazardous material must be represented by a
placard. A DANGEROUS placard cannot be used because this placard must
represent two or more hazards. In this scenario we only have one hazard left
to placard. Since there is only one more placard needed you should display
the specific CORROSIVE placard rather than the DANGEROUS placard.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-102 Last Revision: June 24, 2020
AFFIXING PLACARDS
Each placard required must be placed on each side and each end of the vehicle.
EMPTY CONTAINERS
Weights of empty non-bulk packagings that contain only residue of a hazardous material from
Table 2 need not be included in determining placarding requirements.
ADDITIONAL PLACARDING EXCEPTIONS
1. If a transport vehicle has been properly placarded “Flammable Gas” or ‘Oxygen”, a Non-
Flammable Gas” placard is not required. 172.504(f)(3)
2. For domestic transportation of oxygen, compressed or oxygen, refrigerated liquid, the
OXYGEN placard in §172.530 of this subpart may be used in place of a
NON-FLAMMABLE GAS placard.172.504(f)(7)
3. For domestic transportation, a POISON INHALATION HAZARD placard is not required on
a transport vehicle or freight container that is already placarded with the POISON GAS
placard.172.504(f)(8)
4. Class 9 placards are not required for domestic transportation; however, bulk packages of
class 9 material must display the identification number. Remember, one method of
displaying the identification number is on a placard. §172.504(f)(9).
5. For Division 6.1, PG III materials, a POISON placard may be modified to display the text
"PG III" below the mid line of the placard.172.504(f)(10)
PROHIBITED PLACARDING
1. It is a violation of the Hazardous Materials Regulations to affix a placard to a transport
vehicle that does not contain a hazardous material represented by that placard. §172.502(a)
2. You may no longer affix to a package or transport vehicle any sign, advertisement, slogan
(such as Drive safely) or device that, by its color, design, shape or content, could be confused
with any placard prescribed in this subpart. §172.502(a)(2) This prohibited form of
placarding is not mandatory until October 1, 2001 if the safety sign was permanently marked
on a transport vehicle on or before August 21, 1997. §172.502(b)(3).
3. A subsidiary placard must also display the hazard class or division number.

The security plan must include an assessment of possible transportation security risks for
shipments of the hazardous materials listed above and appropriate measures to address the
assessed risks. Specific measures put into place by the plan may vary commensurate with the
level of threat at a particular time. At a minimum, a security plan must include the following
elements:
(1) Personnel security. Measures to confirm information provided by job applicants hired for
positions that involve access to and handling of the hazardous materials covered by the
security plan. Such confirmation system must be consistent with applicable Federal and State
laws and requirements concerning employment practices and individual privacy.
SET Environmental, Inc. T-104 Last Revision: June 24, 2020
(2) Unauthorized access. Measures to address the assessed risk that unauthorized persons may
gain access to the hazardous materials covered by the security plan or transport conveyances
being prepared for transportation of the hazardous materials covered by the security plan.
(3) En route security. Measures to address the assessed security risks of shipments of hazardous
materials covered by the security plan en route from origin to destination, including
shipments stored incidental to movement.
The security plan must be in writing and must be retained for as long as it remains in effect.
Copies of the security plan, or portions thereof, must be available to the employees who are
responsible for implementing it, consistent with personnel security clearance or background
investigation restrictions and a demonstrated need to know. The security plan must be revised
and updated as necessary to reflect changing circumstances. When the security plan is updated or
revised, all copies of the plan must be maintained as of the date of the most recent revision.
Training 49 CFR 172.704(a)(4) and (5).
Security awareness training.
No later than the date of the first scheduled recurrent training after March 25, 2003, and in no
case later than March 24, 2006, each hazmat employee must receive training that provides an
awareness of security risks associated with hazardous materials transportation and methods
designed to enhance transportation security. This training must also include a component
covering how to recognize and respond to possible security threats. After March 25, 2003, new
hazmat employees must receive the security awareness training required by this paragraph within
90 days after employment.
In-depth security training.
By December 22, 2003, each hazmat employee of a person required to have a security plan must
be trained concerning the security plan and its implementation. Security training must include
company security objectives, specific security procedures, employee responsibilities, actions to
take in the event of a security breach, and the organizational security structure.

(3) Subpart C identifies characteristics of hazardous waste.
(4) Subpart D lists particular hazardous wastes.
(b) (1) The definition of solid waste contained in this part applies only to wastes that also are hazardous for
purposes of the regulations implementing subtitle C of RCRA. For example, it does not apply to materials (such
as non-hazardous scrap, paper, textiles, or rubber) that are not otherwise hazardous wastes and that are recycled.
(2) This part identifies only some of the materials which are solid wastes and hazardous wastes under sections
3007, 3013, and 7003 of RCRA. A material which is not defined as a solid waste in this part, or is not a
hazardous waste identified or listed in this part, is still a solid waste and a hazardous waste for purposes of
these sections if:
(i) In the case of sections 3007 and 3013, EPA has reason to believe that the material may be a solid waste
within the meaning of section 1004(27) of RCRA and a hazardous waste within the meaning of section
1004(5) of RCRA; or
(ii) In the case of section 7003, the statutory elements are established.
(c) For the purposes of §§261.2 and 261.6:
(1) A ``spent material'' is any material that has been used and as a result of contamination can no longer serve
the purpose for which it was produced without processing;
(2) ``Sludge'' has the same meaning used in §260.10 of this chapter;
(3) A ``by-product'' is a material that is not one of the primary products of a production process and is not
solely or separately produced by the production process. Examples are process residues such as slags or
distillation column bottoms. The term does not include a co-product that is produced for the general
public's use and is ordinarily used in the form it is produced by the process.
(4) A material is ``reclaimed'' if it is processed to recover a usable product, or if it is regenerated. Examples are
recovery of lead values from spent batteries and regeneration of spent solvents.
(5) A material is ``used or reused'' if it is either:
(i) Employed as an ingredient (including use as an intermediate) in an industrial process to make a
product (for example, distillation bottoms from one process used as feedstock in another process).
However, a material will not satisfy this condition if distinct components of the material are recovered
as separate end products (as when metals are recovered from metal-containing secondary materials); or
(ii) Employed in a particular function or application as an effective substitute for a commercial product
(for example, spent pickle liquor used as phosphorous precipitant and sludge conditioner in wastewater
SET Environmental, Inc. A1-2 40 CFR §261.20 - §261.33
Characteristics and Lists of Hazardous Wastes Last Revision: December 9, 2019
treatment).
(6) ``Scrap metal'' is bits and pieces of metal parts (e.g.,) bars, turnings, rods, sheets, wire) or metal pieces that
may be combined together with bolts or soldering (e.g., radiators, scrap automobiles, railroad box cars),
which when worn or superfluous can be recycled.
(7) A material is ``recycled'' if it is used, reused, or reclaimed.
(8) A material is ``accumulated speculatively'' if it is accumulated before being recycled. A material is not
accumulated speculatively, however, if the person accumulating it can show that the material is potentially
recyclable and has a feasible means of being recycled; and that-during the calendar year (commencing on
January 1)-the amount of material that is recycled, or transferred to a different site for recycling, equals at
least 75 percent by weight or volume of the amount of that material accumulated at the beginning of the
period. In calculating the percentage of turnover, the 75 percent requirement is to be applied to each
material of the same type (e.g., slags from a single smelting process) that is recycled in the same way (i.e.,
from which the same material is recovered or that is used in the same way). Materials accumulating in units
that would be exempt from regulation under §261.4(c) are not to be included in making the calculation.
(Materials that are already defined as solid wastes also are not to be included in making the calculation.)
Materials are no longer in this category once they are removed from accumulation for recycling, however.
(9) ``Excluded scrap metal'' is processed scrap metal, unprocessed home scrap metal, and unprocessed prompt
scrap metal.
(10) ̀ `Processed scrap metal'' is scrap metal which has been manually or physically altered to either separate it
into distinct materials to enhance economic value or to improve the handling of materials. Processed scrap
metal includes, but is not limited to scrap metal which has been baled, shredded, sheared, chopped,
crushed, flattened, cut, melted, or separated by metal type (i.e., sorted), and, fines, drosses and related
materials which have been agglomerated. (Note: shredded circuit boards being sent for recycling are not
considered processed scrap metal. They are covered under the exclusion from the definition of solid waste
for shredded circuit boards being recycled (§261.4(a)(14)).
(11) ̀ `Home scrap metal'' is scrap metal as generated by steel mills, foundries, and refineries such as turnings,
cuttings, punchings, and borings.
(12) ̀ `Prompt scrap metal'' is scrap metal as generated by the metal working/fabrication industries and includes
such scrap metal as turnings, cuttings, punchings, and borings. Prompt scrap is also known as industrial or
new scrap metal.

261.2 Definition of solid waste.
(a) (1) A solid waste is any discarded material that is not excluded by §261.4 (a) or that is not excluded by
variance granted under §§260.30 and 260.31.
(2) A discarded material is any material which is:
(i) Abandoned, as explained in paragraph (b) of this section; or
(ii) Recycled, as explained in paragraph (c) of this section; or
(iii) Considered inherently waste-like, as explained in paragraph (d) of this section; or
(iv) A military munition identified as a solid waste in 40 CFR 266.202.
(b) Materials are solid waste if they are abandoned by being:
(1) Disposed of; or
(2) Burned or incinerated; or
(3) Accumulated, stored, or treated (but not recycled) before or in lieu of being abandoned by being
disposed of, burned, or incinerated.
(c) Materials are solid wastes if they are recycled or accumulated, stored, or treated before recycling as
specified in paragraphs (c)(1) through (4) of this section.
(1) Used in a manner constituting disposal.
(i) Materials noted with a ``*'' in Column 1 of Table I are solid wastes when they are:
(A) Applied to or placed on the land in a manner that constitutes disposal; or
(B) Used to produce products that are applied to or placed on the land or are otherwise contained
in products that are applied to or placed on the land (in which cases the product itself remains
a solid waste).
(ii) However, commercial chemical products listed in §261.33 are not solid wastes if they are applied
to the land and that is their ordinary manner of use.
(2) Burning for energy recovery.
(i) Materials noted with a ``*'' in column 2 of Table 1 are solid wastes when they are:
(A) Burned to recover energy;
(B) Used to produce a fuel or are otherwise contained in fuels (in which cases the fuel itself
remains a solid waste).
(ii) However, commercial chemical products listed in §261.33 are not solid wastes if they are
themselves fuels.
(3) Reclaimed. Materials noted with a "*" in column 3 of Table 1 are solid wastes when reclaimed (except
as provided under 40 CFR §261.4(a)(15)). Materials noted with a " - " in column 3 of Table 1 are not
solid wastes when reclaimed.
(4) Accumulated speculatively. Materials noted with a ``*'' in column 4 of Table 1 are solid wastes when
accumulated speculatively.

(d) Inherently waste-like materials. The following materials are solid wastes when they are recycled in any manner:
(1) Hazardous Waste Nos. F020, F021 (unless used as an ingredient to make a product at the site of
generation), F022, F023, F026, and F028.
(2) Secondary materials fed to a halogen acid furnace that exhibit a characteristic of a hazardous waste or are
listed as a hazardous waste as defined in subparts C or D of this part, except for brominated material that
meets the following criteria:
(i) The material must contain a bromine concentration of at least 45%; and
(ii) The material must contain less than a total of 1% of toxic organic compounds listed in appendix VIII;
and
(iii) The material is processed continually on-site in the halogen acid furnace via direct conveyance (hard
piping).
(3) The Administrator will use the following criteria to add wastes to that list:
(i) (A) The materials are ordinarily disposed of, burned, or incinerated; or
(B) The materials contain toxic constituents listed in appendix VIII of part 261 and these constituents
are not ordinarily found in raw materials or products for which the materials substitute (or are
found in raw materials or products in smaller concentrations) and are not used or reused during the
recycling process; and
(ii) The material may pose a substantial hazard to human health and the environment when recycled.
(e) Materials that are not solid waste when recycled.
(1) Materials are not solid wastes when they can be shown to be recycled by being:
(i) Used or reused as ingredients in an industrial process to make a product, provided the materials are not
SET Environmental, Inc. A1-5 40 CFR §261.20 - §261.33
Characteristics and Lists of Hazardous Wastes Last Revision: December 9, 2019
being reclaimed; or
(ii) Used or reused as effective substitutes for commercial products; or
(iii) In cases where the materials are generated and reclaimed within the primary mineral processing
industry, the conditions of the exclusion found at § 261.4(a)(15) apply rather than this provision.
(2) The following materials are solid wastes, even if the recycling involves use, reuse, or return to the original
process (described in paragraphs (e)(1) (i) through (iii) of this section):
(i) Materials used in a manner constituting disposal, or used to produce products that are applied to the
land; or
(ii) Materials burned for energy recovery, used to produce a fuel, or contained in fuels; or
(iii) Materials accumulated speculatively; or
(iv) Materials listed in paragraphs (d)(1) and (d)(2) of this section.
(f) Documentation of claims that materials are not solid wastes or are conditionally exempt from regulation.
Respondents in actions to enforce regulations implementing Subtitle C of RCRA who raise a claim that a
certain material is not a solid waste, or is conditionally exempt from regulation, must demonstrate that there is a
known market or disposition for the material, and that they meet the terms of the exclusion or exemption. In
doing so, they must provide appropriate documentation (such as contracts showing that a second person uses the
material as an ingredient in a production process) to demonstrate that the material is not a waste, or is exempt
from regulation. In addition, owners or operators of facilities claiming that they actually are recycling materials
must show that they have the necessary equipment to do so.

261.3 Definition of hazardous waste.
(a) A solid waste, as defined in § 261.2, is a hazardous waste if:
(1) It is not excluded from regulation as a hazardous waste under § 261.4 (b); and
(2) It meets any of the following criteria:
(i) It exhibits any of the characteristics of hazardous waste identified in subpart C of this part. However,
any mixture of a waste from the extraction, beneficiation, and processing of ores and minerals
excluded under § 261.4(b)(7) and any other solid waste exhibiting a characteristic of hazardous waste
under subpart C is a hazardous waste only if it exhibits a characteristic that would not have been
exhibited by the excluded waste alone if such mixture had not occurred, or if it continues to exhibit any
of the characteristics exhibited by the non-excluded wastes prior to mixture. Further, for the purposes
of applying the Toxicity Characteristic to such mixtures, the mixture is also a hazardous waste if it
exceeds the maximum concentration for any contaminant listed in table I to § 261.24 that would not
have been exceeded by the excluded waste alone if the mixture had not occurred or if it continues to
exceed the maximum concentration for any contaminant exceeded by the nonexempt waste prior to
mixture.
(ii) It is listed in subpart D of this part and has not been excluded from the lists in subpart D of this part
under §§ 260.20 and 260.22 of this chapter.
(iii) [Reserved]
(iv) It is a mixture of solid waste and one or more hazardous wastes listed in subpart D of this part and has
not been excluded from paragraph (a)(2) of this section under 40 CFR 260.20 and 260.22, paragraph
(g) of this section, or paragraph (h) of this section; however, the following mixtures of solid wastes and
hazardous wastes listed in subpart D of this part are not hazardous wastes (except by application of
paragraph (a)(2)(i) or (ii) of this section) if the generator can demonstrate that the mixture consistsof
wastewater the discharge of which is subject to regulation under either section 402 or section 307(b) of
the Clean Water Act (including wastewater at facilities which have eliminated the discharge of
wastewater) and;
(A) One or more of the following spent solvents listed in § 261.31-benzene, carbon tetrachloride,
tetrachloroethylene, trichloroethylene or the scrubber waters derived-from the combustion of these
spent solvents-Provided, That the maximum total weekly usage of these solvents (other than the
amounts that can be demonstrated not to be discharged to wastewater) divided by the average
weekly flow of wastewater into the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment or
pretreatment system does not exceed 1 part per million, OR the total measured concentration of
these solvents entering the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment system (at facilities
subject to regulation under the Clean Air Act, as amended, at 40 CFR parts 60, 61, or 63, or at
facilities subject to an enforceable limit in a federal operating permit that minimizes fugitive
emissions), does not exceed 1 part per million on an average weekly basis. Any facility that uses
benzene as a solvent and claims this exemption must use an aerated biological wastewater
treatment system and must use only lined surface impoundments or tanks prior to secondary
clarification in the wastewater treatment system. Facilities that choose to measure concentration
levels must file a copy of their sampling and analysis plan with the Regional Administrator, or
State Director, as the context requires, or an authorized representative ("Director" as defined in 40
CFR 270.2). A facility must file a copy of a revised sampling and analysis plan only if the initial
plan is rendered inaccurate by changes in the facility's operations. The sampling and analysis plan
must include the monitoring point location (headworks), the sampling frequency and
methodology, and a list of constituents to be monitored. A facility is eligible for the direct
monitoring option once they receive confirmation that the sampling and analysis plan has been
received by the Director. The Director may reject the sampling and analysis plan if he/she finds
that, the sampling and analysis plan fails to include the above information; or the plan parameters
would not enable the facility to calculate the weekly average concentration of these chemicals
accurately. If the Director rejects the sampling and analysis plan or if the Director finds that the
facility is not following the sampling and analysis plan, the Director shall notify the facility to
SET Environmental, Inc. A1-7 40 CFR §261.20 - §261.33
Characteristics and Lists of Hazardous Wastes Last Revision: December 9, 2019
cease the use of the direct monitoring option until such time as the bases for rejection are
corrected; or
(B) One or more of the following spent solvents listed in § 261.31-methylene chloride, 1,1,1-
trichloroethane, chlorobenzene, o-dichlorobenzene, cresols, cresylic acid, nitrobenzene, toluene,
methyl ethyl ketone, carbon disulfide, isobutanol, pyridine, spent chlorofluorocarbon solvents, 2-
ethoxyethanol, or the scrubber waters derived-from the combustion of these spent solvents-
Provided That the maximum total weekly usage of these solvents (other than the amounts that can
be demonstrated not to be discharged to wastewater) divided by the average weekly flow of
wastewater into the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment or pretreatment system does
not exceed 25 parts per million, OR the total measured concentration of these solvents entering the
headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment system (at facilities subject to regulation under
the Clean Air Act as amended, at 40 CFR parts 60, 61, or 63, or at facilities subject to an
enforceable limit in a federal operating permit that minimizes fugitive emissions), does not exceed
25 parts per million on an average weekly basis. Facilities that choose to measure concentration
levels must file a copy of their sampling and analysis plan with the Regional Administrator, or
State Director, as the context requires, or an authorized representative ("Director" as defined in 40
CFR 270.2). A facility must file a copy of a revised sampling and analysis plan only if the initial
plan is rendered inaccurate by changes in the facility's operations. The sampling and analysis plan
must include the monitoring point location (headworks), the sampling frequency and
methodology, and a list of constituents to be monitored. A facility is eligible for the direct
monitoring option once they receive confirmation that the sampling and analysis plan has been
received by the Director. The Director may reject the sampling and analysis plan if he/she finds
that, the sampling and analysis plan fails to include the above information; or the plan parameters
would not enable the facility to calculate the weekly average concentration of these chemicals
accurately. If the Director rejects the sampling and analysis plan or if the Director finds that the
facility is not following the sampling and analysis plan, the Director shall notify the facility to
cease the use of the direct monitoring option until such time as the bases for rejection are
corrected; or
(C) One of the following wastes listed in § 261.32, provided that the wastes are discharged to the
refinery oil recovery sewer before primary oil/water/solids separation - heat exchanger bundle
cleaning sludge from the petroleum refining industry (EPA Hazardous Waste No. K050), crude oil
storage tank sediment from petroleum refining operations (EPA Hazardous Waste No. K169),
clarified slurry oil tank sediment and/or in-line filter/separation solids from petroleum refining
operations (EPA Hazardous Waste No. K170), spent hydrotreating catalyst (EPA Hazardous
Waste No. K171), and spent hydrorefining catalyst (EPA Hazardous Waste No. K172); or
(D) A discarded hazardous waste, commercial chemical product, or chemical intermediate listed in § §
261.31 through 261.33, arising from de minimis losses of these materials. For purposes of this
paragraph (a)(2)(iv)(D), de minimis losses are inadvertent releases to a wastewater treatment
system, including those from normal material handling operations (e.g., spills from the unloading
or transfer of materials from bins or other containers, leaks from pipes, valves or other devices
used to transfer materials); minor leaks of process equipment, storage tanks or containers; leaks
from well maintained pump packings and seals; sample purgings; relief device discharges;
discharges from safety showers and rinsing and cleaning of personal safety equipment; and rinsate
from empty containers or from containers that are rendered empty by that rinsing. Any
manufacturing facility that claims an exemption for de minimis quantities of wastes listed in § §
261.31 through 261.32, or any nonmanufacturing facility that claims an exemption for de minimis
quantities of wastes listed in subpart D of this part must either have eliminated the discharge of
wastewaters or have included in its Clean Water Act permit application or submission to its
pretreatment control authority the constituents for which each waste was listed (in 40 CFR 261
appendix VII) of this part; and the constituents in the table "'Treatment Standards for Hazardous
Wastes"' in 40 CFR 268.40 for which each waste has a treatment standard (i.e., Land Disposal
Restriction constituents). A facility is eligible to claim the exemption once the permit writer or
control authority has been notified of possible de minimis releases via the Clean Water Act permit
application or the pretreatment control authority submission. A copy of the Clean Water permit
application or the submission to the pretreatment control authority must be placed in the facility's
on-site files; or

(E) Wastewater resulting from laboratory operations containing toxic (T) wastes listed in Subpart D of
this part, Provided, That the annualized average flow of laboratory wastewater does not exceed
one percent of total wastewater flow into the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment or
pre-treatment system, or provided the wastes, combined annualized average concentration does
not exceed one part per million in the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment or
pre-treatment facility. Toxic (T) wastes used in laboratories that are demonstrated not to be
discharged to wastewater are not to be included in this calculation; or
(F) One or more of the following wastes listed in § 261.32-wastewaters from the production of
carbamates and carbamoyl oximes (EPA Hazardous Waste No. K157)-Provided that the maximum
weekly usage of formaldehyde, methyl chloride, methylene chloride, and triethylamine (including
all amounts that cannot be demonstrated to be reacted in the process, destroyed through treatment,
or is recovered, i.e., what is discharged or volatilized) divided by the average weekly flow of
process wastewater prior to any dilution into the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment
system does not exceed a total of 5 parts per million by weight OR the total measured
concentration of these chemicals entering the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment
system (at facilities subject to regulation under the Clean Air Act as amended, at 40 CFR parts 60,
61, or 63, or at facilities subject to an enforceable limit in a federal operating permit that
minimizes fugitive emissions), does not exceed 5 parts per million on an average weekly basis.
Facilities that choose to measure concentration levels must file copy of their sampling and analysis
plan with the Regional Administrator, or State Director, as the context requires, or an authorized
representative ("Director" as defined in 40 CFR 270.2). A facility must file a copy of a revised
sampling and analysis plan only if the initial plan is rendered inaccurate by changes in the
facility's operations. The sampling and analysis plan must include the monitoring point location
(headworks), the sampling frequency and methodology, and a list of constituents to be monitored.
A facility is eligible for the direct monitoring option once they receive confirmation that the
sampling and analysis plan has been received by the Director. The Director may reject the
sampling and analysis plan if he/she finds that, the sampling and analysis plan fails to include the
above information; or the plan parameters would not enable the facility to calculate the weekly
average concentration of these chemicals accurately. If the Director rejects the sampling and
analysis plan or if the Director finds that the facility is not following the sampling and analysis
plan, the Director shall notify the facility to cease the use of the direct monitoring option until
such time as the bases for rejection are corrected; or
(G) Wastewaters derived-from the treatment of one or more of the following wastes listed in §
261.32-organic waste (including heavy ends, still bottoms, light ends, spent solvents, filtrates, and
decantates) from the production of carbamates and carbamoyl oximes (EPA Hazardous Waste No.
K156).-Provided, that the maximum concentration of formaldehyde, methyl chloride, methylene
chloride, and triethylamine prior to any dilutions into the headworks of the facility's wastewater
treatment system does not exceed a total of 5 milligrams per liter OR the total measured
concentration of these chemicals entering the headworks of the facility's wastewater treatment
system (at facilities subject to regulation under the Clean Air Act as amended, at 40 CFR parts 60,
61, or 63, or at facilities subject to an enforceable limit in a federal operating permit that
minimizes fugitive emissions), does not exceed 5 milligrams per liter on an average weekly basis.
Facilities that choose to measure concentration levels must file copy of their sampling and analysis
plan with the Regional Administrator, or State Director, as the context requires, or an authorized
representative ("Director" as defined in 40 CFR 270.2). A facility must file a copy of a revised
sampling and analysis plan only if the initial plan is rendered inaccurate by changes in the
facility's operations. The sampling and analysis plan must include the monitoring point location
(headworks), the sampling frequency and methodology, and a list of constituents to be monitored.
A facility is eligible for the direct monitoring option once they receive confirmation that the
sampling and analysis plan has been received by the Director. The Director may reject the
sampling and analysis plan if he/she finds that, the sampling and analysis plan fails to include the
above information; or the plan parameters would not enable the facility to calculate the weekly
average concentration of these chemicals accurately. If the Director rejects the sampling and
analysis plan or if the Director finds that the facility is not following the sampling and analysis
plan, the Director shall notify the facility to cease the use of the direct monitoring option until
such time as the bases for rejection are corrected.

(v) Rebuttable presumption for used oil. Used oil containing more than 1000 ppm total halogens is
presumed to be a hazardous waste because it has been mixed with halogenated hazardous waste listed
in subpart D of part 261 of this chapter. Persons may rebut this presumption by demonstrating that the
used oil does not contain hazardous waste (for example, by using an analytical method from SW-846,
Third Edition, to show that the used oil does not contain significant concentrations of halogenated
hazardous constituents listed in appendix VIII of part 261 of this chapter). EPA Publication SW-846,
Third Edition, is available for the cost of $110.00 from the Government Printing Office,
Superintendent of Documents, PO Box 371954, Pittsburgh, PA 15250-7954. 202-783-3238 (document
number 955-001-00000-1).
(A) The rebuttable presumption does not apply to metalworking oils/fluids containing chlorinated
paraffins, if they are processed, through a tolling agreement, to reclaim metalworking oils/fluids.
The presumption does apply to metalworking oils/fluids if such oils/fluids are recycled in any
other manner, or 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.
(b) A solid waste which is not excluded from regulation under paragraph (a)(1) of this section becomes a hazardous
waste when any of the following events occur:
(1) In the case of a waste listed in Subpart D of this part, when the waste first meets the listing description set
forth in subpart D of this part.
(2) In the case of a mixture of solid waste and one or more listed hazardous wastes, when a hazardous waste
listed in subpart D is first added to the solid waste.
(3) In the case of any other waste (including a waste mixture), when the waste exhibits any of the
characteristics identified in subpart C of this part.
(c) Unless and until it meets the criteria of paragraph (d) of this section:
(1) A hazardous waste will remain a hazardous waste.
(2) (i) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (c)(2)(ii), (g) or (h) of this section, any solid waste
generated from the treatment, storage, or disposal of a hazardous waste, including any sludge, spill residue,
ash emission control dust, or leachate (but not including precipitation run-off) is a hazardous waste.
(However, materials that are reclaimed from solid wastes and that are used beneficially are not solid wastes
and hence are not hazardous wastes under this provision unless the reclaimed material is burned for energy
recovery or used in a manner constituting disposal.)
(ii) The following solid wastes are not hazardous even though they are generated from the treatment,
storage, or disposal of a hazardous waste, unless they exhibit one or more of the characteristics of
hazardous waste:
(A) Waste pickle liquor sludge generated by lime stabilization of spent pickle liquor from the iron and
steel industry (SIC Codes 331 and 332).
(B) Waste from burning any of the materials exempted from regulation by § 261.6(a)(3)(iii) and (iv).
(C) (1) Nonwastewater residues, such as slag, resulting from high temperature metals recovery
(HTMR) processing of K061, K062 or F006 waste, in units identified as rotary kilns, flame
reactors, electric furnaces, plasma arc furnaces, slag reactors, rotary hearth furnace/electric furnace
combinations or industrial furnaces (as defined in paragraphs (6), (7), and (13) of the definition for
``Industrial furnace'' in 40 CFR 260.10), that are disposed in subtitle D units, provided that these
residues meet the generic exclusion levels identified in the tables in this paragraph for all

constituents, and exhibit no characteristics of hazardous waste. Testing requirements must be
incorporated in a facility's waste analysis plan or a generator's self-implementing waste analysis
plan; at a minimum, composite samples of residues must be collected and analyzed quarterly
and/or when the process or operation generating the waste changes. Persons claiming this
exclusion in an enforcement action will have the burden of proving by clear and convincing
evidence that the material meets all of the exclusion requirements.

(2) A one-time notification and certification must be placed in the facility's files and sent to the EPA region or
authorized state for K061, K062 or F006 HTMR residues that meet the generic exclusion levels for all
constituents and do not exhibit any characteristics that are sent to subtitle D units. The notification and
certification that is placed in the generators or treaters files must be updated if the process or operation
generating the waste changes and/or if the subtitle D unit receiving the waste changes. However, the
generator or treater need only notify the EPA region or an authorized state on an annual basis if such
changes occur. Such notification and certification should be sent to the EPA region or authorized state by
the end of the calendar year, but no later than December 31. The notification must include the following
information: The name and address of the subtitle D unit receiving the waste shipments; the EPA
Hazardous Waste Number(s) and treatability group(s) at the initial point of generation; and, the treatment
standards applicable to the waste at the initial point of generation. The certification must be signed by an
authorized representative and must state as follows: ``I certify under penalty of law that the generic
exclusion levels for all constituents have been met without impermissible dilution and that no characteristic
of hazardous waste is exhibited. I am aware that there are significant penalties for submitting a false
certification, including the possibility of fine and imprisonment.''

(SIC code 2911 - including, but not limited to, distillation, catalytic cracking, fractionation,
gasification (as defined in 40 CFR 260.10) or thermal cracking units (i.e., cokers)) unless the material
is placed on the land, or speculatively accumulated before being so recycled. Materials inserted into
thermal cracking units are excluded under this paragraph, provided that the coke product also does not
exhibit a characteristic of hazardous waste. Oil-bearing hazardous secondary materials may be inserted
into the same petroleum refinery where they are generated, or sent directly to another petroleum
refinery, and still be excluded under this provision. Except as provided in paragraph (a)(12)(ii) of this
section, oil-bearing hazardous secondary materials generated elsewhere in the petroleum industry (i.e.,
from sources other than petroleum refineries) are not excluded under this section. Residuals generated
from processing or recycling materials excluded under this paragraph (a)(12)(i), where such materials
as generated would have otherwise met a listing under subpart D of this part, are designated as F037
listed wastes when disposed of or intended for disposal.
(ii) Recovered oil that is recycled in the same manner and with the same conditions as described in
paragraph (a)(12)(i) of this section. Recovered oil is oil that has been reclaimed from secondary

hazardous wastes listed in subpart D of this part) generated within the primary mineral processing industry
from which minerals, acids, cyanide, water or other values are recovered by mineral processing, provided
that:
(i) The secondary material is legitimately recycled to recover minerals, acids, cyanide, water or other
values;
(ii) The secondary material is not accumulated speculatively;
(iii) Except as provided in paragraph (a)(15)(iv) of this section, the secondary material is stored in tanks,
containers, or buildings meeting the following minimum integrity standards: a building must be an
engineered structure with a floor, walls, and a roof all of which are made of non-earthen materials
providing structural support (except smelter buildings may have partially earthen floors provided the
secondary material is stored on the non-earthen portion), and have a roof suitable for diverting
rainwater away from the foundation; a tank must be free standing, not be a surface impoundment (as
defined in 40 CFR 260.10), and be manufactured of a material suitable for containment of its contents;
a container must be free standing and be manufactured of a material suitable for containment of its
contents. If tanks or containers contain any particulate which may be subject to wind dispersal, the
owner/operator must operate these units in a manner which controls fugitive dust. Tanks, containers,
and buildings must be designed, constructed and operated to prevent significant releases to the
environment of these materials.
(iv) The Regional Administrator or the State Director may make a site-specific determination, after public
review and comment, that onlysolid mineral processing secondary materials may be placed on pads,
rather than in tanks, containers, or buildings. Solid mineral processing secondary materials do not
contain any free liquid. The decision-maker must affirm that pads are designed, constructed and
operated to prevent significant releases of the secondary material into the environment. Pads must
provide the same degree of containment afforded by the non-RCRA tanks, containers and buildings
eligible for exclusion.
(A) The decision-maker must also consider if storage on pads poses the potential for significant
releases via groundwater, surface water, and air exposure pathways. Factors to be considered for
assessing the groundwater, surface water, air exposure pathways are: the volume and physical and
chemical properties of the secondary material, including its potential for migration off the pad; the
potential for human or environmental exposure to hazardous constituents migrating from the pad
via each exposure pathway, and the possibility and extent of harm to human and environmental
receptors via each exposure pathway.
(B) Pads must meet the following minimum standards: be designed of non-earthen material that is
compatible with the chemical nature of the mineral processing secondary material, capable of
withstanding physical stresses associated with placement and removal, have run on/runoff
controls, be operated in a manner which controls fugitive dust, and have integrity assurance
through inspections and maintenance programs.
(C) Before making a determination under this paragraph, the Regional Administrator or State Director
must provide notice and the opportunity for comment to all persons potentially interested in the
determination. This can be accomplished by placing notice of this action in major local
newspapers, or broadcasting notice over local radio stations.

generated within the primary mineral processing industry from which minerals, acids, cyanide, water, or
other values are recovered by mineral processing or by beneficiation, provided that:
(i) The spent material is legitimately recycled to recover minerals, acids, cyanide, water or other values;
(ii) The spent material is not accumulated speculatively;
(iii) Except as provided in paragraph (a)(17)(iv) of this section, the spent material is stored in tanks,
containers, or buildings meeting the following minimum integrity standards: a building must be an
engineered structure with a floor, walls, and a roof all of which are made of non-earthen materials
providing structural support (except smelter buildings may have partially earthen floors provided the
secondary material is stored on the non-earthen portion), and have a roof suitable for diverting
rainwater away from the foundation; a tank must be free standing, not be a surface impoundment (as
defined in 40 CFR 260.10), and be manufactured of a material suitable for containment of its contents;
a container must be free standing and be manufactured of a material suitable for containment of its
contents. If tanks or containers contain any particulate which may be subject to wind dispersal, the
owner/operator must operate these units in a manner which controls fugitive dust. Tanks, containers,
and buildings must be designed, constructed and operated to prevent significant releases to the
environment of these materials.
(iv) The Regional Administrator or State Director may make a site-specific determination, after public
review andcomment, that only solid mineral processing spent material may be placed on pads rather
than tanks containers, or buildings. Solid mineral processing spent materials do not contain any free
liquid. The decision-maker must affirm that pads are designed, constructed and operated to prevent
significant releases of the secondary material into the environment. Pads must provide the same degree
of containment afforded by the non-RCRA tanks, containers and buildings eligible for exclusion.
(A) The decision-maker must also consider if storage on pads poses the potential for significant
releases via groundwater, surface water, and air exposure pathways. Factors to be considered for
assessing the groundwater, surface water, air exposure pathways are: The volume and physical and
chemical properties of the secondary material, including its potential for migration off the pad; the
potential for human or environmental exposure to hazardous constituents migrating from the pad
via each exposure pathway, and the possibility and extent of harm to human and environmental
receptors via each exposure pathway.
(B) Pads must meet the following minimum standards: Be designed of non-earthen material that is
compatible with the chemical nature of the mineral processing spent material, capable of
withstanding physical stresses associated with placement and removal, have run on/runoff
controls, be operated in a manner which controls fugitive dust, and have integrity assurance
through inspections and maintenance programs.
(C) Before making a determination under this paragraph, the Regional Administrator or State Director
must provide notice and the opportunity for comment to all persons potentially interested in the
determination. This can be accomplished by placing notice of this action in major local

(v) The owner or operator provides notice to the Regional Administrator or State Director providing the
following information: The types of materials to be recycled; the type and location of the storage units
and recycling processes; and the annual quantities expected to be placed in land-based units. This
notification must be updated when there is a change in the type of materials recycled or the location of
the recycling process.
(vi) For purposes of paragraph (b)(7) of this section, mineral processing spent materials must be the result
of mineral processing and may not include any listed hazardous wastes. Listed hazardous wastes and

manufacture [insert name of product or intermediate] which is made from specified unused
materials, and that [insert tolling contractor name] will reclaim the hazardous secondary materials
generated during this manufacture. On behalf of [insert tolling contractor name], I also certify that
[insert tolling contractor name] retains ownership of, and responsibility for, the hazardous
secondary materials that are generated during the course of the manufacture, including any
releases of hazardous secondary materials that occur during the manufacturing process”. The
tolling contractor must maintain at its facility for no less than three years records of hazardous
secondary materials received pursuant to its written contract with the tolling manufacturer, and the
tolling manufacturer must maintain at its facility for no less than three years records of hazardous
secondary materials shipped pursuant to its written contract with the tolling contractor. In both
cases, the records must contain the name of the transporter, the date of the shipment, and the type
and quantity of the hazardous secondary material shipped or received pursuant to the written
contract. These requirements may be satisfied by routine business records (e.g., financial records,
bills of lading, copies of DOT shipping papers, or electronic confirmations). For purposes of this
paragraph, tolling contractor means a person who arranges for the production of a product or
intermediate made from specified unused materials through a written contract with a toll
manufacturer. Toll manufacturer means a person who produces a product or intermediate made
from specified unused materials pursuant to a written contract with a tolling contractor.

261.20 General.
(a) A solid waste, as defined in §261.2, which is not excluded from regulation as a hazardous waste under §261.4
(b), is a hazardous waste if it exhibits any of the characteristics identified in this subpart.
[Comment: §262.11 of this chapter sets forth the generator's responsibility to determine whether his waste
exhibits one or more of the characteristics identified in this subpart]
(b) A hazardous waste which is identified by a characteristic in this subpart is assigned every EPA Hazardous
Waste Number that is applicable as set forth in this subpart. This number must be used in complying with the
notification requirements of section 3010 of the Act and all applicable recordkeeping and reporting
requirements under parts 262 through 265, 268, and 270 of this chapter.
(c) For purposes of this subpart, the Administrator will consider a sample obtained using any of the applicable
sampling methods specified in appendix I to be a representative sample within the meaning of part 260 of this
chapter.
[Comment: Since the appendix I sampling methods are not being formally adopted by the Administrator, a
person who desires to employ an alternative sampling method is not required to demonstrate the
equivalency of his method under the procedures set forth in §§260.20 and 260.21.]
261.21 Characteristic of ignitability.
(a) A solid waste exhibits the characteristic of ignitability if a representative sample of the waste has any of the
following properties:
(1) It is a liquid, other than an aqueous solution containing less than 24 percent alcohol by volume and has
flash point less than 60°C (140°F), as determined by a Pensky-Martens Closed Cup Tester, using the test
method specified in ASTM Standard D-93-79 or D-93-80 (incorporated by reference, see §260.11), or a
Setaflash Closed Cup Tester, using the test method specified in ASTM Standard D-3278-78 (incorporated
by reference, see §260.11).
(2) It is not a liquid and is capable, under standard temperature and pressure, of causing fire through friction,
absorption of moisture or spontaneous chemical changes and, when ignited, burns so vigorously and
persistently that it creates a hazard.
(3) It is an ignitable compressed gas.
(i) The term "compressed gas" shall designate any material or mixture having in the container an absolute
pressure exceeding 40 p.s.i. at 70°F or, regardless of the pressure at 70 °F, having an absolute pressure
exceeding 104 p.s.i. at 130°F; or any liquid flammable material having a vapor pressure exceeding 40
p.s.i. absolute at 100°F as determined by ASTM Test D-323.
(ii) A compressed gas shall be characterized as ignitable if any one of the following occurs:
(A) Either a mixture of 13 percent or less (by volume) with air forms a flammable mixture or the
flammable range with air is wider than 12 percent regardless of the lower limit. These limits shall
be determined at atmospheric temperature and pressure. The method of sampling and test
procedure shall be acceptable to the Bureau of Explosives and approved by the director, Pipeline
and Hazardous Materials Technology, U.S. Department of Transportation (see Note 2).
(B) Using the Bureau of Explosives' Flame Projection Apparatus (see Note 1), the flame projects more
SET Environmental, Inc. A1-41 40 CFR §261.20 - §261.33
Characteristics and Lists of Hazardous Wastes Last Revision: December 9, 2019
than 18 inches beyond the ignition source with valve opened fully, or, the flame flashes back and
burns at the valve with any degree of valve opening.
(C) Using the Bureau of Explosives' Open Drum Apparatus (see Note 1), there is any significant
propagation of flame away from the ignition source.
(D) Using the Bureau of Explosives' Closed Drum Apparatus (see Note 1), there is any explosion of
the vapor-air mixture in the drum.
(4) It is an oxidizer. An oxidizer for the purpose of this subchapter is a substance such as a chlorate,
permanganate, inorganic peroxide, or a nitrate, that yields oxygen readily to stimulate the combustion of
organic matter (see Note 4).
(i) An organic compound containing the bivalent -O-O- structure and which may be considered a derivative of
hydrogen peroxide where one or more of the hydrogen atoms have been replaced by organic radicals must
be classed as an organic peroxide unless:
(A) The material meets the definition of a Class A explosive or a Class B explosive, as defined in
§261.23(a)(8), in which case it must be classed as an explosive,
(B) The material is forbidden to be offered for transportation according to 49 CFR 172.101 and 49 CFR
173.21,
(C) It is determined that the predominant hazard of the material containing an organic peroxide is other
than that of an organic peroxide, or
(D) According to data on file with the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration in the U.S.
Department of Transportation (see Note 3), it has been determined that the material does not present a
hazard in transportation.
(b) A solid waste that exhibits the characteristic of ignitability has the EPA Hazardous Waste Number of D001.
Note 1: A description of the Bureau of Explosives' Flame Projection Apparatus, Open Drum Apparatus, Closed
Drum Apparatus, and method of tests may be procured from the Bureau of Explosives.
Note 2: As part of a U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) reorganization, the Office of Hazardous Materials
Technology (OHMT), which was the office listed in the 1980 publication of 49 CFR 173.300 for the
purposes of approving sampling and test procedures for a flammable gas, ceased operations on February
20, 2005. OHMT programs have moved to the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration
(PHMSA) in the DOT.
Note 3: As part of a U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) reorganization, the Research and Special Programs
Administration (RSPA), which was the office listed in the 1980 publication of 49 CFR 173.151a for the
purposes of determining that a material does not present a hazard in transport, ceased operations on
February 20, 2005. RSPA programs have moved to the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety
Administration (PHMSA) in the DOT.
Note 4: The DOT regulatory definition of an oxidizer was contained in §173.151 of 49 CFR, and the definition of
an organic peroxide was contained in paragraph 173.151a. An organic peroxide is a type of oxidizer.
261.22 Characteristic of corrosivity.
(a) A solid waste exhibits the characteristic of corrosivity if a representative sample of the waste has either of the
following properties:
(1) It is aqueous and has a pH less than or equal to 2 or greater than or equal to 12.5, as determined by a pH
meter using Method 9040C in "Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods,"

temperature of 55 °C (130 °F) as determined by Method 1110A in "Test Methods for Evaluating Solid
Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods," EPA Publication SW-846, and as incorporated by reference in
§260.11 of this chapter.
(b) A solid waste that exhibits the characteristic of corrosivity has the EPA Hazardous Waste Number of D002.
261.23 Characteristic of reactivity.
(a) A solid waste exhibits the characteristic of reactivity if a representative sample of the waste has any of the
following properties:
(1) It is normally unstable and readily undergoes violent change without detonating.
(2) It reacts violently with water.
(3) It forms potentially explosive mixtures with water.
(4) When mixed with water, it generates toxic gases, vapors or fumes in a quantity sufficient to present a
danger to human health or the environment.
(5) It is a cyanide or sulfide bearing waste which, when exposed to pH conditions between 2 and 12.5, can
generate toxic gases, vapors or fumes in a quantity sufficient to present a danger to human health or the
environment.

in 49 CFR 173.50 and 173.53
(b) A solid waste that exhibits the characteristic of reactivity has the EPA Hazardous Waste Number of D003.
261.24 Toxicity characteristic.
(a) A solid waste (except manufactured gas plant waste) exhibits the characteristic of toxicity if, using the
Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure, test Method 1311 in "Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste,
Physical/Chemical Methods," EPA Publication SW-846, as incorporated by reference in § 260.11 of this
chapter, the extract from a representative sample of the waste contains any of the contaminants listed in table
1 at the concentration equal to or greater than the respective value given in that table. Where the waste
contains less than 0.5 percent filterable solids, the waste itself, after filtering using the methodology outlined
in Method 1311, is considered to be the extract for the purpose of this section.

(ii) Generators and treatment, storage and disposal facilities have the burden of proving that their sludges
are exempt from listing as F037 and F038 wastes under this definition. Generators and treatment,
storage and disposal facilities must maintain, in their operating or other onsite records, documents and
data sufficient to prove that: (A) the unit is an aggressive biological treatment unit as defined in this
subsection; and (B) the sludges sought to be exempted from the definitions of F037 and/or F038 were
actually generated in the aggressive biological treatment unit.
(3) (i) For the purposes of the F037 listing, sludges are considered to be generated at the moment of
deposition in the unit, where deposition is defined as at least a temporary cessation of lateral particle
movement.
(ii) For the purposes of the F038 listing,
(A) sludges are considered to be generated at the moment of deposition in the unit, where deposition is
defined as at least a temporary cessation of lateral particle movement and
(B) floats are considered to be generated at the moment they are formed in the top of the unit.
(4) For the purposes of the F019 listing, the following apply to wastewater treatment sludges from the
manufacturing of motor vehicles using a zinc phosphating process.
(i) Motor vehicle manufacturing is defined to include the manufacture of automobiles and light
trucks/utility vehicles (including light duty vans, pick-up trucks, minivans, and sport utility
vehicles). Facilities must be engaged in manufacturing complete vehicles (body and chassis or
unibody) or chassis only.
(ii) Generators must maintain in their on-site records documentation and information sufficient to prove
that the wastewater treatment sludges to be exempted from the F019 listing meet the conditions of
the listing. These records must include: the volume of waste generated and disposed of off site;
documentation showing when the waste volumes were generated and sent off site; the name and
address of the receiving facility; and documentation confirming receipt of the waste by the
receiving facility. Generators must maintain these documents on site for no less than three years.
The retention period for the documentation is automatically extended during the course of any
enforcement action or as requested by the Regional Administrator or the state regulatory authority.

(b) Listing Specific Definitions:
(1) For the purposes of the K181 listing, dyes and/or pigments production is defined to include manufacture of
the following product classes: dyes, pigments, or FDA certified colors that are classified as azo,
triarylmethane, perylene or anthraquinone classes. Azo products include azo, monoazo, diazo, triazo,
polyazo, azoic, benzidine, and pyrazolone products. Triarylmethane products include both triarylmethane
and triphenylmethane products. Wastes that are not generated at a dyes and/or pigments manufacturing site,
such as wastes from the offsite use, formulation, and packaging of dyes and/or pigments, are not included
in the K181 listing.
(c) K181 Listing Levels.
Nonwastewaters containing constituents in amounts equal to or exceeding the following levels during any
calendar year are subject to the K181 listing, unless the conditions in the K181 listing are met.
Constituents Chemical Abstracts No. Mass levels
(kg/yr)
Aniline 62-53-3 9,300
o-Anisidine 90-04-0 110
4-Chloroaniline 106-47-8 4,800
p-Cresidine 120-71-8 660
2,4-Dimethylaniline 95-68-1 100
1,2-Phenylenediamine 95-54-5 710
1,3-Phenylenediamine 108-45-2 1,200
(d) Procedures for demonstrating that dyes and/or pigment nonwastewaters are not K181.
The procedures described in paragraphs (d)(1)-(d)(3) and (d)(5) of this section establish when nonwastewaters
from the production of dyes/pigments would not be hazardous (these procedures apply to wastes that are not
disposed in landfill units or treated in combustion units as specified in paragraph (a) of this section). If the
nonwastewaters are disposed in landfill units or treated in combustion units as described in paragraph (a) of this
section, then the nonwastewaters are not hazardous. In order to demonstrate that it is meeting the landfill
disposal or combustion conditions contained in the K181 listing description, the generator must maintain
documentation as described in paragraph (d)(4) of this section.
(1) Determination based on no K181 constituents. Generators that have knowledge (e.g., knowledge of
constituents in wastes based on prior sampling and analysis data and/or information about raw materials
used, production processes used, and reaction and degradation products formed) that their wastes contain
none of the K181 constituents (see paragraph (c) of this section) can use their knowledge to determine that
their waste is not K181. The generator must document the basis for all such determinations on an annual
basis and keep each annual documentation for three years.
(2) Determination for generated quantities of 1,000 MT/yr or less for wastes that contain K181 constituents. If
the total annual quantity of dyes and/or pigment nonwastewaters generated is 1,000 metric tons or less, the
generator can use knowledge of the wastes (e.g., knowledge of constituents in wastes based on prior
analytical data and/or information about raw materials used, production processes used, and reaction and
degradation products formed) to conclude that annual mass loadings for the K181 constituents are below
the listing levels of paragraph (c) of this section. To make this determination, the generator must:
(i) Each year document the basis for determining that the annual quantity of nonwastewaters expected to
be generated will be less than 1,000 metric tons.
(ii) Track the actual quantity of nonwastewaters generated from January 1 through December 31 of each

year. If, at any time within the year, the actual waste quantity exceeds 1,000 metric tons, the generator
must comply with the requirements of paragraph (d)(3) of this section for the remainder of the year.
(iii) Keep a running total of the K181 constituent mass loadings over the course of the calendar year.
(iv) Keep the following records on site for the three most recent calendar years in which the hazardous
waste determinations are made:
(A) The quantity of dyes and/or pigment nonwastewaters generated.
(B) The relevant process information used.
(C) The calculations performed to determine annual total mass loadings for each K181 constituent in
the nonwastewaters during the year.
(3) Determination for generated quantities greater than 1,000 MT/yr for wastes that contain K181 constituents.
If the total annual quantity of dyes and/or pigment nonwastewaters generated is greater than 1,000 metric
tons, the generator must perform all of the steps described in paragraphs ((d)(3)(i)-(d)(3)(xi) of this section)
in order to make a determination that its waste is not K181.
(i) Determine which K181 constituents (see paragraph (c) of this section) are reasonably expected to be
present in the wastes based on knowledge of the wastes (e.g., based on prior sampling and analysis
data and/or information about raw materials used, production processes used, and reaction and
degradation products formed).
(ii) If 1,2-phenylenediamine is present in the wastes, the generator can use either knowledge or sampling
and analysis procedures to determine the level of this constituent in the wastes. For determinations
based on use of knowledge, the generator must comply with the procedures for using knowledge
described in paragraph (d)(2) of this section and keep the records described in paragraph (d)(2)(iv) of
this section. For determinations based on sampling and analysis, the generator must comply with the
sampling and analysis and recordkeeping requirements described below in this section.
(iii) Develop a waste sampling and analysis plan (or modify an existing plan) to collect and analyze
representative waste samples for the K181 constituents reasonably expected to be present in the
wastes. At a minimum, the plan must include:
(A) A discussion of the number of samples needed to characterize the wastes fully;
(B) The planned sample collection method to obtain representative waste samples;
(C) A discussion of how the sampling plan accounts for potential temporal and spatial variability of
the wastes.
(D) A detailed description of the test methods to be used, including sample preparation, clean up (if
necessary), and determinative methods.
(iv) Collect and analyze samples in accordance with the waste sampling and analysis plan.
(A) The sampling and analysis must be unbiased, precise, and representative of the wastes.
(B) The analytical measurements must be sufficiently sensitive, accurate and precise to support any
claim that the constituent mass loadings are below the listing levels of paragraph (c) of this
section.
(v) Record the analytical results.
(vi) Record the waste quantity represented by the sampling and analysis results.
(vii) Calculate constituent-specific mass loadings (product of concentrations and waste quantity).
(viii)Keep a running total of the K181 constituent mass loadings over the course of the calendar year.
(ix) Determine whether the mass of any of the K181 constituents listed in paragraph (c) of this section
generated between January 1 and December 31 of any year is below the K181 listing levels.
(x) Keep the following records on site for the three most recent calendar years in which the hazardous
waste determinations are made:
(A) The sampling and analysis plan.
(B) The sampling and analysis results (including QA/QC data)
(C) The quantity of dyes and/or pigment nonwastewaters generated.
(D) The calculations performed to determine annual mass loadings.
(xi) Nonhazardous waste determinations must be conducted annually to verify that the wastes remain
nonhazardous.
(A) The annual testing requirements are suspended after three consecutive successful annual
demonstrations that the wastes are nonhazardous. The generator can then use knowledge of the
wastes to support subsequent annual determinations.
(B) The annual testing requirements are reinstated if the manufacturing or waste treatment processes
generating the wastes are significantly altered, resulting in an increase of the potential for the
wastes to exceed the listing levels.
(C) If the annual testing requirements are suspended, the generator must keep records of the process
SET Environmental, Inc. A1-59 40 CFR §261.20 - §261.33
Characteristics and Lists of Hazardous Wastes Last Revision: December 9, 2019
knowledge information used to support a nonhazardous determination. If testing is reinstated, a
description of the process change must be retained.
(4) Recordkeeping for the landfill disposal and combustion exemptions. For the purposes of meeting the
landfill disposal and combustion condition set out in the K181 listing description, the generator must
maintain on site for three years documentation demonstrating that each shipment of waste was received
by a landfill unit that is subject to or meets the landfill design standards set out in the listing
description, or was treated in combustion units as specified in the listing description.
(5) Waste holding and handling. During the interim period, from the point of generation to completion of
the hazardous waste determination, the generator is responsible for storing the wastes appropriately. If
the wastes are determined to be hazardous and the generator has not complied with the subtitle C
requirements during the interim period, the generator could be subject to an enforcement action for
improper management.

261.33 Discarded commercial chemical products, off-specification species, container residues, and spill
residues thereof.
The following materials or items are hazardous wastes if and when they are discarded or intended to be discarded as
described in §261.2 (a)(2)(i), when they are mixed with waste oil or used oil or other material and applied to the land
for dust suppression or road treatment, when they are otherwise applied to the land in lieu of their original intended
use or when they are contained in products that are applied to the land in lieu of their original intended use, or when,
in lieu of their original intended use, they are produced for use as (or as a component of) a fuel, distributed for use as
a fuel, or burned as a fuel.
(a) Any commercial chemical product, or manufacturing chemical intermediate having the generic name listed in
paragraph (e) or (f) of this section.
(b) Any off-specification commercial chemical product or manufacturing chemical intermediate which, if it met
specifications, would have the generic name listed in paragraph (e) or (f) of this section.
(c) Any residue remaining in a container or in an inner liner removed from a container that has held any
commercial chemical product or manufacturing chemical intermediate having the generic name listed in
paragraphs (e) or (f) of this section, unless the container is empty as defined in §261.7 (b) of this chapter.
[Comment: Unless the residue is being beneficially used or reused, or legitimately recycled or reclaimed; or
being accumulated, stored, transported or treated prior to such use, re-use, recycling or reclamation, EPA
considers the residue to be intended for discard, and thus, a hazardous waste. An example of a legitimate re-use
of the residue would be where the residue remains in the container and the container is used to hold the same
commercial chemical product or manufacturing chemical intermediate it previously held. An example of the
discard of the residue would be where the drum is sent to a drum reconditioner who reconditions the drum but
discards the residue.]
(d) Any residue or contaminated soil, water or other debris resulting from the cleanup of a spill into or on any land
or water of any commercial chemical product or manufacturing chemical intermediate having the generic name
listed in paragraph (e) or (f) of this section, or any residue or contaminated soil, water or other debris resulting
from the cleanup of a spill, into or on any land or water, of any off-specification chemical product and
manufacturing chemical intermediate which, if it met specifications, would have the generic name listed in
paragraph (e) or (f) of this section.
[Comment: The phrase ``commercial chemical product or manufacturing chemical intermediate having the
generic name listed in . . .'' refers to a chemical substance which is manufactured or formulated for commercial
or manufacturing use which consists of the commercially pure grade of the chemical, any technical grades of
the chemical that are produced or marketed, and all formulations in which the chemical is the sole active
ingredient. It does not refer to a material, such as a manufacturing process waste, that contains any of the
substances listed in paragraph (e) or (f). Where a manufacturing process waste is deemed to be a hazardous
waste because it contains a substance listed in paragraph (e) or (f), such waste will be listed in either §261.31 or
§261.32 or will be identified as a hazardous waste by the characteristics set forth in subpart C of this part.]
(e) The commercial chemical products, manufacturing chemical intermediates or off-specification commercial
chemical products or manufacturing chemical intermediates referred to in paragraphs (a) through (d) of this
section, are identified as acute hazardous wastes (H) and are subject to the small quantity exclusion defined in
§261.5 (e).
[Comment: For the convenience of the regulated community the primary hazardous properties of these materials
have been indicated by the letters T (Toxicity), and R (Reactivity). Absence of a letter indicates that the
compound only is listed for acute toxicity]

shipping name that matches the primary and subsidiary hazards for the material. Then look up the shipping name in the Hazardous
Materials Table and continue.
The purpose of this table is to assist in identifying shipping names that do not identify a single specific chemical. It only contains a fraction of
the shipping names found in the 49 CFR 172.101 Hazardous Materials Table. Specific chemical names or chemical groups that would easily be
identified if referencing chemical names are not included in this list.

FOOTNOTES
@ Indicates that the name was added by PHMSA because (1) the name is a synonym for a specific hazardous substance and (2) the name appears in the Hazardous Materials Table as a proper shipping name.
# To provide consistency with EPA regulations, two entries with different CAS numbers are provided. Refer to the EPA Table 302.4--List of Hazardous Substances and Reportable Quantities for an explanation of the two entries.
♣The RQ for these hazardous substances is limited to those pieces of the metal having a diameter smaller than 100 micrometers (0.004 inches).
♠The RQ for asbestos is limited to friable forms only.
Instructors Note: From USEPA Superfund Reportabe Quantity Website: "What Releases Are Excluded From CERCLA Reporting? If a metal is released in solid form at or above its RQ, is it considered a reportable release?The Agency allows a reporting exception for massive forms of certain solid metals (antimony, arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, nickel, selenium, silver, thallium, and zinc) when the diameter of the released metal equals or exceeds 100 micrometers (0.004 inches) (50 FR 13461, April 4, 1985). The Agency deliberately set the cutoff size 10 times larger than the maximum size considered by EPA to be respirable dust to ensure that the government would be notified of releases containing small, inhalable particles of metals.
APPENDIX 4
MARINE POLLUTANTS
49 CFR 172.101 Appendix B A4- 1 SET Environmental, Inc. Marine Pollutant List Last Revision: March 30, 2017
172.101 APPENDIX B
List of Marine Pollutants
1. See § 171.4 of this subchapter for applicability to marine pollutants. This appendix lists potential
marine pollutants as defined in § 171.8 of this subchapter. 2. Marine pollutants listed in this appendix are not necessarily listed by name in the § 172.101
Table. If a marine pollutant not listed by name or by synonym in the § 172.101 Table meets the definition of any hazard Class 1 through 8, then you must determine the class and division of the material in accordance with § 173.2a of this subchapter. You must also select the most appropriate hazardous material description and proper shipping name. If a marine pollutant not listed by name or by synonym in the § 172.101 Table does not meet the definition of any Class 1 through 8, then you must offer it for transportation under the most appropriate of the following two Class 9 entries: "Environmentally hazardous substances, liquid, n.o.s.," UN3082, or "Environmentally hazardous substances, solid, n.o.s." UN3077.
3. This appendix contains two columns. The first column, entitled ``S.M.P.'' (for severe marine
pollutants), identifies whether a material is a severe marine pollutant. If the letters ``PP'' appear in this column for a material, the material is a severe marine pollutant, otherwise it is not. The second column, entitled ``Marine Pollutant'' , lists the marine pollutants.
4. If a material is not listed in this appendix and meets the criteria for a marine pollutant as provided
in Chapter 2.9 of the IMDG Code, (incorporated by reference; see Sec. 171.7 of this subchapter), the material may be transported as a marine pollutant in accordance with the applicable requirements of this subchapter.
5. If a material or a solution meeting the definition of a marine pollutant in Sec. 171.8 of this
subchapter does not meet the criteria for a marine pollutant as provided in section 2.9.3.3 and 2.9.3.4 of the IMDG Code, (incorporated by reference; see Sec. 171.7 of this subchapter), it may be excepted from the requirements of this subchapter as a marine pollutant if that exception is approved by the Associate Administrator.
The Marine Pollutant additional descriptor and marking requirements do not apply to shipments of non- bulk packagings unless some portion of the transportation will be by vessel. [49 CFR §172.203(l)(4) and §171.4] If the material is shipped in bulk packaging and contains a Marine Pollutant include the technical names of the marine pollutant in the shipping description (§172.203(l)(1)), and add the words "Marine Pollutant" at the end of the shipping description (§172.203(l)(2)). If the bulk packaging is less than 1000 gallons affix the Marine Pollutant mark on two opposing sides (§172.322(b)(1)). If the capacity of the packaging is greater than 1000 gallons affix the Marine Pollutant mark on both sides and both ends (§173.322(b)(2)).

(2) For self-reactive materials listed in § 173.224(b) Table control and emergency temperatures, where required are shown in Columns 5 and 6, respectively. For organic peroxides listed in The Organic Peroxides Table in § 173.225 control and emergency temperatures, where required, are shown in Columns 7a and 7b, respectively.
(3) Refrigeration may be used as a means of stabilization only when approved by the Associate Administrator. Approvals issued by the Bureau of Explosives are no longer valid (see Sec. 171.19 of this subchapter). Methods of stabilization approved by the Associate Administrator are as follows:
(i) For highway transportation:
(A) A material meeting the criteria of this paragraph (f) may be transported only in a transport
vehicle, freight container, or motor vehicle equipped with a mechanical refrigeration unit, or loaded with a consumable refrigerant, capable of maintaining the inside temperature of the hazardous material at or below the control temperature required for the material during transportation.
(B) Each package containing a material meeting the criteria of this paragraph (f) must be
loaded and maintained at or below the control temperature required for the material. The temperature of the material must be determined by appropriate means and entered on a written record at the time the packaging is loaded.
(C) The vehicle operator shall monitor the inside temperature of the transport vehicle, freight
container, or motor vehicle and enter that temperature on a written record at the time the package is loaded and thereafter at intervals not exceeding two hours. Alternatively, a transport vehicle, freight container, or motor vehicle may be equipped with a visible or audible warning device that activates when the inside temperature of the transport vehicle, freight container, or motor vehicle exceeds the control temperature required for the material. The warning device must be readily visible or audible, as appropriate, from the vehicle operator’s seat in the vehicle.
(D) The carrier shall advise the vehicle operator of the emergency temperature for the
material, and provide the vehicle operator with written procedures that must be followed to assure maintenance of the control temperature inside the transport vehicle, freight container, or motor vehicle. The written procedures must include instructions for the vehicle operator on actions to take if the inside temperature exceeds the control temperature and approaches or reaches the emergency temperature for the material. In addition, the written temperature-control procedures must identify enroute points where the consumable refrigerant may be procured, or where repairs to, or replacement of, the mechanical refrigeration unit may be accomplished.
(E) The vehicle operator shall maintain the written temperature-control procedures, and the
written record of temperature measurements specified in paragraph (f)(3)(i)(C) of this section, if applicable, in the same manner as specified in § 177.817 of this subchapter for shipping papers.
(F) If the control temperature is maintained by use of a consumable refrigerant (e.g., dry ice
or liquid nitrogen), the quantity of consumable refrigerant must be sufficient to maintain the control temperature for twice the average transit time under normal conditions of transportation.
(G) A material that has a control temperature of 40 °C (104 °F) or higher may be transported
by common carrier. A material that has a control temperature below 40 °C (104 °F) must be transported by a private or contract carrier.
(ii) For transportation by vessel, shipments are authorized in accordance with the control
temperature requirements in 7.3.7 of the IMDG Code (IBR, see § 171.7 of this subchapter).
49 CFR 173 Subpart D A5-3 SET Environmental, Inc. Exceptions: Other Than For Class 1 and 7 Last Revision: May 11, 2020
(g) Packages which give off a flammable gas or vapor, released from a material not otherwise subject to
this subchapter, likely to create a flammable mixture with air in a transport vehicle. (h) Packages containing materials (other than those classed as explosive) which will detonate in a fire.
(1) For purposes of this paragraph, “detonate” means an explosion in which the shock wave travels through the material at a speed greater than the speed of sound.
(2) When tests are required to evaluate the performance of a package under the provisions of this
paragraph, the testing must be done or approved by one of the agencies specified in § 173.56. (i) Except for a package containing a lighter design sample that meets the requirements of
§ 173.308(b)(2), a package containing a lighter (see § 171.8 of this subchapter) containing a Division 2.1 material, of a design that has not been examined and successfully tested by an authorized person under the criteria specified in § 173.308(a)(4)or, a lighter design containing a Class 3 material, that has not been approved by the Associate Administrator.
(j) An organic peroxide of the “ketone peroxide” category which contains more than 9 percent available
oxygen as calculated using the equation in § 173.128(a)(4)(ii). The category, ketone peroxide, includes, but is not limited to:
Acetyl acetone peroxide Cyclohexanone peroxide(s) Diacetone alcohol peroxides Methylcyclohexanone peroxide(s) Methyl ethyl ketone peroxide(s) Methyl isobutyl ketone peroxide(s)
(k) Notwithstanding any other provision of this subchapter, including subpart C of part 171 and
175.10(a)(2) of this subchapter, an oxygen generator (chemical) as cargo on a passenger-carrying aircraft. This prohibition does not apply to an oxygen generator for medical or personal use of a passenger that meets the requirements of § 175.10(a)(7) of this subchapter.

equivalent to or greater than that provided by paragraph (e)(3)(ii) of this section and are specifically approved by the Associate Administrator.
(4) Mixed contents. Hazardous materials may not be packed or mixed together in the same outer
packaging with other hazardous or nonhazardous materials if such materials are capable of reacting dangerously with each other and causing–
(i) Combustion or dangerous evolution of heat; (ii) Evolution of flammable, poisonous, or asphyxiant gases; or
49 CFR 173 Subpart D A5-8 SET Environmental, Inc. Exceptions: Other Than For Class 1 and 7 Last Revision: May 11, 2020
(iii) Formation of unstable or corrosive materials.
(5) Packagings used for solids, which may become liquid at temperatures likely to be encountered
during transportation, must be capable of containing the hazardous material in the liquid state. (f) Closures.
(1) Closures on packagings shall be so designed and closed that under conditions (including the effects of temperature, pressure and vibration) normally incident to transportation—
(i) Except as provided in paragraph (g) of this section, there is no identifiable release of
hazardous materials to the environment from the opening to which the closure is applied; and (ii) The closure is leakproof and secured against loosening. For air transport, stoppers, corks or
other such friction closures must be held in place by positive means.
(2) Except as otherwise provided in this subchapter, a closure (including gaskets or other closure components, if any) used on a specification packaging must conform to all applicable requirements of the specification and must be closed in accordance with information, as applicable, provided by the manufacturer's notification required by § 178.2 of this subchapter.
(g) Venting. Venting of packagings, to reduce internal pressure which may develop by the evolution of
gas from the contents, is permitted only when—
(1) Transportation by aircraft is not involved; (2) Except as otherwise provided in this subchapter, the evolved gases are not poisonous, likely to
create a flammable mixture with air or be an asphyxiant under normal conditions of transportation;
(3) The packaging is designed so as to preclude an unintentional release of hazardous materials
from the receptacle; (4) For bulk packagings, other than IBCs, venting is authorized for the specific hazardous material by
a special provision in the § 172.101 table or by the applicable bulk packaging specification in part 178 of this subchapter; and
(5) Intermediate bulk packagings (IBCs) may be vented when required to reduce internal pressure
that may develop by the evolution of gas subject to the requirements of paragraphs (g)(1) through (g)(3) of this section. The IBC must be of a type that has successfully passed (with the vent in place) the applicable design qualification tests with no release of hazardous material.
(h) Outage and filling limits
(1) General. When filling packagings and receptacles for liquids, sufficient ullage (outage) must be left to ensure that neither leakage nor permanent distortion of the packaging or receptacle will occur as a result of an expansion of the liquid caused by temperatures likely to be encountered during transportation. Requirements for outage and filling limits for non-bulk and bulk packagings are specified in §§ 173.24a(d) and 173.24b(a), respectively.
(2) Compressed gases and cryogenic liquids. Filling limits for compressed gases and cryogenic
liquids are specified in §§ 173.301 through 173.306 for cylinders and §§ 173.314 through 173.319 for bulk packagings.

§173.27 General requirements for transportation by aircraft. (a) The requirements of this section are in addition to requirements prescribed elsewhere under this part
and apply to packages offered or intended for transportation aboard aircraft. Except for materials not subject to performance packaging requirements in subpart E of this part, a packaging containing a Packing Group III material with a primary or subsidiary risk of Division 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 5.1, or Class 8 must meet the Packing Group II performance level when offered for transportation by aircraft.
(b) Packages authorized on board aircraft.
(1) When Column 9a of the § 172.101 Table indicates that a material is “Forbidden” , that material may not be offered for transportation or transported aboard passenger-carrying aircraft.
(2) When Column 9b of the § 172.101 Table indicates that a material is “Forbidden” , that material
may not be offered for transportation or transported aboard aircraft. (3) The maximum quantity of hazardous material in a package that may be offered for transportation
or transported aboard a passenger-carrying aircraft or cargo aircraft may not exceed that quantity prescribed for the material in Column 9a or 9b, respectively, of the § 172.101 Table.
(4) A package containing a hazardous material which is authorized aboard cargo aircraft but not
aboard passenger aircraft must be labeled with the CARGO AIRCRAFT ONLY label required by § 172.402(c) of this subchapter and may not be offered for transportation or transported aboard passenger-carrying aircraft.
(c) Pressure requirements.
(1) Packagings must be designed and constructed to prevent leakage that may be caused by changes in altitude and temperature during transportation aboard aircraft.
(2) Packagings for which retention of liquid is a basic function must be capable of withstanding
without leakage the greater of–
(i) An internal pressure which produces a gauge pressure of not less than 75 kPa (11 psig) for liquids in Packing Group III of Class 3 or Division 6.1. or 95 kPa (14 psig) for other liquids; or
(ii) A pressure related to the vapor pressure of the liquid to be conveyed, determined by one of
the following: (A) The total gauge pressure measured in the receptacle (i.e., the vapor pressure of the
material and the partial pressure of air or other inert gases, less 100 kPa (15 psia)) at 55 °C (131 °F), multiplied by a safety factor of 1.5; determined on the basis of a filling temperature of 15 °C (59 °F) and a degree of filling such that the receptacle is not completely liquid full at a temperature of 55 °C (131 °F) or less;
(B) 1.75 times the vapor pressure at 50 °C (122 °F) less 100 kPa (15 psia); or (C) 1.5 times the vapor pressure at 55 °C (131 °) less 100 kPa (15 psia).
(3) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (c)(2) of this section–

(ii) For stainless steel drums and jerricans, conform to a minimum wall thickness as determined
by the following equivalence formula:
Formula for Metric Units
49 CFR 173 Subpart D A5-21 SET Environmental, Inc. Exceptions: Other Than For Class 1 and 7 Last Revision: May 11, 2020
E1 = (21.4 x e0) ) (cube root of Rm1 x A1) Formula for U.S. Standard Units
E1 = (21.4 x e0) ) (cube root of Rm1 x A1 ) 145) where: e1=required equivalent wall thickness of the metal to be used (in mm or, for U.S. Standard
units, use inches). e0=required minimum wall thickness for the reference steel (in mm or, for U.S. Standard
units, use inches). Rm1=guaranteed minimum tensile strength of the metal to be used (in N/mm2 or for U.S.
Standard units, use psi). A1=guaranteed minimum elongation (as a percentage) of the metal to be used on fracture
under tensile stress (see paragraph (c)(1) of this section).
(5) Plastic inner receptacles of composite packagings must have a minimum thickness of 1.0 mm (0.039 inch).
(6) A previously used non-bulk packaging may be reused for the shipment of hazardous waste, not
subject to the reconditioning and reuse provisions of this section, in accordance with § 173.12(c). (7) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (b)(2) of this section, a packaging otherwise
authorized for reuse may be reused without being leakproofness tested with air provided the packaging–
(i) Is refilled with a material which is compatible with the previous lading: (ii) Is refilled and offered for transportation by the original filler; (iii) Is transported in a transport vehicle or freight container under the exclusive use of the refiller
of the packaging; and (iv) Is constructed of–
(A) Stainless steel, monel or nickel with a thickness not less than one and one-half times the
minimum thickness prescribed in paragraph (b)(4) of this section; (B) Plastic, provided the packaging is not refilled for reuse on a date more than five years
from the date of manufacture marked on the packaging in accordance with § 178.503(a)(6) of this subchapter; or
(C) Another material or thickness when approved under the conditions established by the
Associate Administrator for reuse without retesting. (c) Reconditioning of non-bulk packaging.
(1) For the purpose of this subchapter, reconditioning of metal drums is:
(i) Cleaning to base material of construction, with all former contents, internal and external corrosion, and any external coatings and labels removed;
(ii) Restoring to original shape and contour, with chimes (if any) straightened and sealed, and all
non-integral gaskets replaced: and (iii) Inspecting after cleaning but before painting, Packagings that have visible pitting, significant
reduction in material thickness, metal fatigue, damaged threads or closures, or other
49 CFR 173 Subpart D A5-22 SET Environmental, Inc. Exceptions: Other Than For Class 1 and 7 Last Revision: May 11, 2020
significant defects, must be rejected.
(2) For the purpose of this subchapter, reconditioning of a non-bulk packaging other than a metal drum includes:
(i) Removal of all former contents, external coatings and labels, and cleaning to the original
materials of construction; (ii) Inspection after cleaning with rejection of packagings with visible damage such as tears,
creases or cracks, or damaged threads or closures, or other significant defects; (iii) Replacement of all non-integral gaskets and closure devices with new or refurbished parts,
and cushioning and cushioning materials; and components including gaskets, closure devices and cushioning and cushioning material. (For a UN 1H1 plastic drum, replacing a removable gasket or closure device with another of the same design and material that provides equivalent performance does not constitute reconditioning); and
(iv) Ensuring that the packagings are restored to a condition that conforms in all respects with the
prescribed requirements of this subchapter.
(3) A person who reconditions a packaging manufactured and marked under the provisions of subpart L of part 178 of this subchapter, shall mark that packaging as required by § 178.503(c) and (d) of this subchapter. The marking is the certification of the reconditioner that the packaging conforms to the standard for which it is marked and that all functions performed by the reconditioner which are prescribed by this subchapter have been performed in compliance with this subchapter.
(4) The markings applied by the reconditioner may be different from those applied by the
manufacturer at the time of original manufacture, but may not identify a greater performance capability than that for which the original design type had been tested (for example, the reconditioner may mark a drum which was originally marked as 1A1/Y1.8 as 1A1/Y1.2 or 1A1/Z2.0).
(5) Packagings which have significant defects which cannot be repaired may not be reused.
(d) Remanufacture of non-bulk packagings. For the purpose of this subchapter, remanufacture is the
conversion of a non-specification, non-bulk packaging to a DOT specification or U.N. standard, the conversion of a packaging meeting one specification or standard to another specification or standard (for example, conversion of 1A1 non-removable head drums to 1A2 removable head drums) or the replacement of integral structural packaging components (such as non-removable heads on drums). A person who remanufactures a non-bulk packaging to conform to a specification or standard in part 178 of this subchapter is subject to the requirements of part 178 of this subchapter as a manufacturer.
(e) Non-reusable containers. A packaging marked as NRC according to the DOT specification or UN
standard requirements of part 178 of this subchapter may be reused for the shipment of any material not required by this subchapter to be shipped in a DOT specification or UN standard packaging.
(f) A Division 6.2 packaging to be reused must be disinfected prior to reuse by any means effective for
neutralizing the infectious substance the packaging previously contained. A secondary packaging or outer packaging conforming to the requirements of § 173.196 or § 173.199 need not be disinfected prior to reuse if no leakage from the primary receptacle has occurred. Drums or jerricans not meeting the minimum thickness requirements prescribed in paragraph (b)(4)(i) of this section may not be reused, reconditioned, or remanufactured for reuse.

submit to the Federal Railroad Administration, Hazardous Materials Division, Office of Safety Assurance and Compliance, 1120 Vermont Avenue, Mail Stop 25, Washington, DC 20590, a progress report that shows the total number of in-service tank cars that need head protection, thermal protection, or bottom-discontinuity protection; the number of new or different tank cars acquired to replace those tank cars required to be upgraded to a higher service pressure; and the total number of tank cars modified, reassigned, acquired, retired, or removed from service the previous year.
(c) Tank car test pressure. A tank car used for the transportation of a hazardous material must have a
tank test pressure equal to or greater than the greatest of the following:
(1) Except for shipments of carbon dioxide, anhydrous hydrogen chloride, vinyl fluoride, ethylene, or hydrogen, 133 percent of the sum of lading vapor pressure at the reference temperature of 46 °C (115 °F) for non-insulated tank cars or 41 °C (105 °F) for insulated tank cars plus static head, plus gas padding pressure in the vacant space of a tank car;
(2) 133 percent of the maximum loading or unloading pressure, whichever is greater; (3) 20.7 Bar (300 psig) for materials that are poisonous by inhalation (see § 173.31(e)(2)(ii) for
compliance dates); (4) The minimum pressure prescribed by the specification in Part 179 of this subchapter; or (5) The minimum test pressure prescribed for the specific hazardous material in the applicable
packaging section in Subpart F or G of this Part. (d) Examination before shipping.
(1) No person may offer for transportation a tank car containing a hazardous material or a residue of a hazardous material unless that person determines that the tank car is in proper condition and safe for transportation. As a minimum, each person offering a tank car for transportation must perform an external visual inspection that includes:
(i) Except where insulation or a thermal protection system precludes an inspection, the tank
shell and heads for abrasion, corrosion, cracks, dents, distortions, defects in welds, or any other condition that makes the tank car unsafe for transportation;
(ii) The piping, valves, fittings, and gaskets for corrosion, damage, or any other condition that
49 CFR 173 Subpart D A5-27 SET Environmental, Inc. Exceptions: Other Than For Class 1 and 7 Last Revision: May 11, 2020
makes the tank car unsafe for transportation; (iii) For missing or loose bolts, nuts, or elements that make the tank car unsafe for transportation; (iv) All closures on tank cars and determine that the closures and all fastenings securing them
are properly tightened in place by the use of a bar, wrench, or other suitable tool; (v) Protective housings for proper securement; (vi) The pressure relief device, including a careful inspection of the rupture disc in non-reclosing
pressure relief devices, for corrosion or damage that may alter the intended operation of the device;

within the prescribed intervals.
(2) Closures on tank cars are required, in accordance with this subchapter, to be designed and closed so that under conditions normally incident to transportation, including the effects of temperature and vibration, there will be no identifiable release of a hazardous material to the environment. In any action brought to enforce this section, the lack of securement of any closure to a tool-tight condition, detected at any point, will establish a rebuttable presumption that a proper inspection was not performed by the offeror of the car. That presumption may be rebutted by any evidence indicating that the lack of securement resulted from a specific cause not within the control of the offeror.
(e) Special requirements for materials poisonous by inhalation—
(1) Interior heater coils. Tank cars used for materials poisonous by inhalation may not have interior heater coils.
(2) Tank car specifications. A tank car used for a material poisonous by inhalation must have a tank

(3) Non-malleable metals may not be used in the construction of valves or fittings. (4) Suitable provision must be made in every case to allow for expansion, contraction, jarring and
vibration of all pipe. Slip joints may not be used for this purpose. (5) Piping and fittings must be grouped in the smallest practicable space and must be protected from
damage as required by the specification. (6) All piping, valves and fittings on every portable tank must be leakage tested with gas or air after
installation and proved tight at not less than the design pressure of the portable tank on which they are used. In the event of replacement, all such piping, valves, or fittings must be tested in accordance with the requirements of this section before the portable tank is returned to transportation service. The requirements of this section apply to all hoses used on portable tanks, except that hoses may be tested either before or after installation on the portable tank.
(7) All materials used in the construction of portable tanks and their appurtenances may not be
subject to destructive attack by the contents of the portable tank. (8) No aluminum, copper, silver, zinc or their alloys may be used. Brazed joints may not be used. All
parts of a portable tank and its appurtenances used for anhydrous ammonia must be steel. (9) Each outlet of a portable tank used for the transportation of non-refrigerated liquefied compressed
gases, except carbon dioxide, must be provided with a suitable automatic excess-flow valve (see definition in § 178.337–1(g) of this subchapter). The valve must be located inside the portable tank or at a point outside the portable tank where the line enters or leaves the portable tank. The valve seat must be located inside the portable tank or may be located within a welded flange or its companion flange, or within a nozzle or within a coupling. The installation must be made in such a manner as to reasonably assure that any undue strain which causes failure requiring functioning of the valve shall cause failure in such a manner that it will not impair the operation of the valve.
(i) A safety device connection or liquid level gauging device that is constructed so that the
outward flow of the tank contents will not exceed that passed by an opening of 0.1397 cm (0.0550 inches) is not required to be equipped with excess-flow valves.
(ii) An excess-flow valve must close automatically if the flow reaches the rated flow of gas or
liquid specified by the original valve manufacturer when piping mounted directly on the valve is sheared off before the first valve, pump, or fitting downstream from the excess flow valve.
(iii) An excess-flow valve may be designed with a by-pass, not to exceed a 0.1016 cm (0.040
inches) diameter opening to allow equalization of pressure. (iv) Filling and discharge lines must be provided with manually operated shut-off valves located
as close to the tank as practical. Unless this valve is manually operable at the valve, the line must also have a manual shut-off valve. The use of “Stop-Check” valves to satisfy with one valve the requirements of this section is forbidden. For portable tanks used for refrigerated liquefied gases, a “stop check” valve may be used on the vapor side of the pressure buildup circuit.
(10) Each portable tank used for carbon dioxide or nitrous oxide must be lagged with a suitable
insulation material of such thickness that the overall thermal conductance is not more than 0.08 Btu per square foot per degree Fahrenheit differential in temperature per hour. The conductance must be determined at 60° Fahrenheit. Insulation material used on portable tanks for nitrous oxide must be noncombustible.
(11) Refrigerating or heating coils must be installed in portable tanks used for carbon dioxide and
nitrous oxide. Such coils must be tested externally to at least the same pressure as the test pressure of the portable tank. The coils must also be tested internally to at least twice the working
49 CFR 173 Subpart D A5-34 SET Environmental, Inc. Exceptions: Other Than for Class 1 and 7 Last Revision: December 21, 2020
pressure of the heating or refrigerating system to be used, but in no case less than the test pressure of the portable tank. Such coils must be securely anchored. In the event of leakage, the refrigerant or heating medium to be circulated through the coil or coils must have no adverse chemical reaction with the portable tank or its contents.
(12) Excess flow valves are not required for portable tanks used for the transport of refrigerated
liquefied gases.

173.225 Packaging requirements and other provisions for organic peroxides. (a) General. When the § 172.101 table specifies that an organic peroxide must be packaged under
this section, the organic peroxide must be packaged and offered for transportation in accordance with the provisions of this section. Each packaging must conform to the general requirements of subpart B of part 173 and to the applicable requirements of part 178 of this subchapter. Non-bulk packagings must meet Packing Group II performance levels. To avoid unnecessary confinement, metallic non-bulk packagings meeting Packing Group I are not authorized. No used material, other than production residues or regrind from the same production process, may be used in plastic packagings. Organic peroxides that require temperature control are subject to the provisions of § 173.21(f). When an IBC or bulk packaging is authorized and meets the requirements of paragraph (f) or (h) of this section, respectively, lower control temperatures than those specified for non-bulk packaging may be required. An organic peroxide not identified in paragraph (c), (e), or (g) of this section by technical name, or not assigned to a generic type in accordance with the provisions in paragraph (b)(3) of this section, must conform to the provisions of paragraph (c) of § 173.128.
(b) New organic peroxides, formulations and samples.
(1) Except as provided for samples in paragraph (b)(2) of this section, no person may offer for transportation an organic peroxide that is not identified by technical name in the Organic Peroxides Table, Organic Peroxide IBC Table, or the Organic Peroxide Portable Tank Table of this section, or a formulation of one or more organic peroxides that are identified by technical name in one of those tables, unless the organic peroxide is assigned a generic type and shipping description and is approved by the Associate Administrator under the provisions of § 173.128(d) of this subchapter.
(2) Samples. Samples of new organic peroxides or new formulations of organic peroxides
49 CFR 173 Subpart D A5-118 SET Environmental, Inc. Exceptions: Other Than for Class 1 and 7 Last Revision: December 21, 2020
identified in the Organic Peroxides Table in paragraph (c) of this section, for which complete test data are not available, and that are to be transported for further testing or product evaluation, may be assigned an appropriate shipping description for organic peroxide Type C, packaged and offered for transportation, under the following conditions:
(i) Data available to the person offering the material for transportation must indicate
that the sample would pose a level of hazard no greater than that of an organic peroxide Type B and that the control temperature, if any, is sufficiently low to prevent any dangerous decomposition and sufficiently high to prevent any dangerous phase separation;
(ii) The sample must be packaged in accordance with packing method OP2, for a
liquid or solid, respectively;
(iii) Packages of the organic peroxide may be offered for transportation and transported in a quantity not to exceed 10 kg (22 pounds) per transport vehicle; and
(iv) One of the following shipping descriptions must be assigned:
(A) Organic peroxide Type C, liquid, 5.2, UN 3103;
(B) Organic peroxide Type C, solid, 5.2, UN 3104;
(C) Organic peroxide Type C, liquid, temperature controlled, 5.2, UN 3113;
or
(D) Organic peroxide Type C, solid, temperature controlled, 5.2, UN 3114.
(3) Mixtures. Mixtures of organic peroxides individually identified in the Organic Peroxides Table in paragraph (c) of this section may be classified as the same type of organic peroxide as that of the most dangerous component and be transported under the conditions for transportation given for this type. If the stable components form a thermally less stable mixture, the SADT of the mixture must be determined and the new control and emergency temperature derived under the provisions of § 173.21(f).
(c) Organic peroxides table. The following Organic Peroxides Table specifies by technical name
those organic peroxides that are authorized for transportation and not subject to the approval provisions of § 173.128 of this part. An organic peroxide identified by technical name in the following table is authorized for transportation only if it conforms to all applicable provisions of the table. The column headings of the Organic Peroxides Table are as follows:
(1) Technical name. The first column specifies the technical name.
(2) ID number. The second column specifies the identification (ID) number which is used to
identify the proper shipping name in the § 172.101 table. The word “ EXEMPT” appearing in the column denotes that the material is not regulated as an organic peroxide.
(3) Concentration of organic peroxide. The third column specifies concentration (mass
percent) limitations, if any, in mixtures or solutions for the organic peroxide. Limitations are given as minimums, maximums, or a range, as appropriate. A range includes the lower and upper limits (i.e., “ 53-100” means from, and including, 53% to, and including 100%). See introductory paragraph of § 172.203(k) of this subchapter for additional description requirements for an organic peroxide that may qualify for more than one generic listing, depending on its concentration.
(4) Concentration of diluents. The fourth column specifies the type and concentration (mass
percent) of diluent or inert solid, when required. Other types and concentrations of
49 CFR 173 Subpart D A5-119 SET Environmental, Inc. Exceptions: Other Than for Class 1 and 7 Last Revision: December 21, 2020
diluents may be used if approved by the Associate Administrator.
(i) The required mass percent of “ Diluent type A” is specified in column 4a. A diluent type A is an organic liquid that does not detrimentally affect the thermal stability or increase the hazard of the organic peroxide and with a boiling point not less than 150 °C at atmospheric pressure. Type A diluents may be used for desensitizing all organic peroxides.
(ii) The required mass percent of “ Diluent type B” is specified in column 4b. A
diluent type B is an organic liquid which is compatible with the organic peroxide and which has a boiling point, at atmospheric pressure, of less than 150 °C (302 °F) but at least 60 °C (140 °F), and a flash point greater than 5 °C (41 °F). Type B diluents may be used for desensitizing all organic peroxides, when specified in the organic peroxide tables, provided that the boiling point is at least 60 °C (140 °F) above the SADT of the peroxide in a 50 kg (110 lbs) package. A type A diluent may be used to replace a type B diluent in equal concentration.
(iii) The required mass percent of “ Inert solid” is specified in column 4c. An inert
solid is a solid that does not detrimentally affect the thermal stability or hazard of the organic peroxide.
(5) Concentration of water. Column 5 specifies, in mass percent, the minimum amount of
water, if any, which must be in formulation.
(6) Packing method. Column 6 specifies the highest packing method (largest packaging capacity) authorized for the organic peroxide. Lower numbered packing methods (smaller packaging capacities) are also authorized. For example, if OP3 is specified, then OP2 and OP1 are also authorized. The Table of Packing Methods in paragraph (d) of this section defines the non-bulk packing methods.
(7) Temperatures. Column 7a specifies the control temperature. Column 7b specifies the
emergency temperature. Temperatures are specified only when temperature controls are required. (See § 173.21(f)).
(8) Notes. Column 8 specifies other applicable provisions, as set forth in notes following the
table.

cargo tank motor vehicles with a tank design pressure of at least 172 kPa (25 psig) are authorized.
(3) Portable tanks. The following requirements apply to portable tanks intended for the
transport of organic peroxides or self-reactive substances. DOT 51, 57, IM 101 portable tanks, and UN portable tanks that conform to the requirements of paragraph (g) of this section, are authorized. Type F organic peroxide or self-reactive substance formulations other than those indicated in the Organic Peroxide Portable Tank Table may be transported in portable tanks if approved by the Associate Administrator. The following conditions also apply:
(i) The portable tank must be designed for a test pressure of at least 0.4 MPa (4
bar). (ii) The portable tank must be fitted with temperature-sensing devices. (iii) The portable tank must be fitted with pressure relief devices and
emergency-relief devices. Vacuum-relief devices may also be used. Pressure relief devices must operate at pressures determined according to both the properties of the hazardous material and the construction characteristics of the portable tank. Fusible elements are not allowed in the shell.
(iv) The pressure relief devices must consist of reclosing devices fitted to prevent
significant build-up within the portable tank of the decomposition products and vapors released at a temperature of 50 [deg]C (122 [deg]F). The capacity and start-to-discharge pressure of the relief devices must be in accordance with the applicable requirements of this subchapter specified for the portable tank. The pressure relief devices must not allow liquid to escape in the event the portable tank is overturned in a loaded condition.
(v)
(A) The emergency-relief devices may be of the reclosing or frangible types,
or a combination of the two, designed to vent all the decomposition products and vapors evolved during a period of not less than one hour of complete fire engulfment as calculated by the following formula:
q = 70961 FA0.82 Where: q = heat absorption (W) A = wetted area (m2) F = insulation factor (-)
(B) Insulation factor (F) in the formula in paragraph (h)(3)(v)(A) of this
section equals 1 for non-insulated vessels and for insulated vessels F is
49 CFR 173 Subpart F A5-139 SET Environmental, Inc. Non-Bulk Packaging Other Than For Class 1 and 7 Last Revision: May 11, 2020
calculated using the following formula:
F = U(923 - TPO)/47032 Where:
U = K/L = heat transfer coefficient of the insulation (W[middot]m-2[middot]K-1); where K = heat conductivity of insulation layer (W[middot]m-1[middot]K-1), and L = thickness of insulation layer (m).
TPO = temperature of material at relieving conditions (K).
(vi) The start-to-discharge pressure of emergency-relief devices must be higher than
that specified for the pressure relief devices in paragraph (h)(3)(iv) of this section. The emergency-relief devices must be sized and designed in such a way that the maximum pressure in the shell never exceeds the test pressure of the portable tank.
Note to Paragraph (h)(3)(vi): An example of a method to determine the size of
emergency-relief devices is given in Appendix 5 of the UN Manual of Tests and Criteria (IBR, see § 171.7 of this subchapter). A second example of a test method for venting sizing is given in the American Institute of Chemical Engineers Process Safety Progress Journal, June 2002 issue (Vol. 21, No. 2) (Informational materials not requiring incorporation by reference, see § 171.7(b)).
(vii) For insulated portable tanks, the capacity and setting of emergency-relief devices
must be determined assuming a loss of insulation from 1% of the surface area. (viii) Vacuum-relief devices and reclosing devices on portable tanks used for
flammable hazardous materials must be provided with flame arresters. Any reduction of the relief capacity caused by the flame arrester must be taken into account and the appropriate relief capacity must be provided.
(ix) Service equipment such as devices and external piping must be designed and
constructed so that no hazardous material remains in them after filling the portable tank.
(x) Portable tanks may be either insulated or protected by a sun-shield. If the SADT
of the hazardous material in the portable tank is 55 [deg]C (131 [deg]F) or less, the portable tank must be completely insulated. The outer surface must be finished in white or bright metal.
(xi) The degree of filling must not exceed 90% at 15 [deg]C (59 [deg]F). (xii) DOT 57 metal portable tanks are authorized only for tert-butyl cumyl peroxide,
di-(2-tert-butylperoxyisopropyl-benzene(s)), dicumyl peroxide and mixtures of two or more of these peroxides. DOT 57 portable tanks must conform to the venting requirements of paragraph (f) of this section. These portable tanks are not subject to any other requirements of paragraph (h) of this section.
(4) For tertiary butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP), each tank car, cargo tank or portable tank must
contain 7.6 cm (3.0 inches) low density polyethylene (PE) saddles having a melt index of at least 0.2 grams per 10 minutes (for example see, ASTM D1238, condition E) as part of the lading, with a ratio of PE to TBHP over a range of 0.008 to 0.012 by mass. Alternatively, plastic or metal containers equipped with fusible plugs having a melting point between 69 [deg]C (156 [deg]F) and 71 [deg]C (160 [deg]F) and filled with a sufficient quantity of water to dilute the TBHP to 65% or less by mass may be used.

49 CFR 173 Subpart F A5-144 SET Environmental, Inc. Non-Bulk Packaging Other Than For Class 1 and 7 Last Revision: May 11, 2020
(a) Requirements for Fuel Cell Cartridges. Fuel cell cartridges, including when contained in or packed with equipment, must be designed and constructed to prevent fuel leakage under normal conditions of transportation. Fuel cell cartridge design types using liquids as fuels must pass an internal pressure test at a gauge pressure of 100 kPa (15 psig) without leakage. Except for fuel cell cartridges containing hydrogen in metal hydride which must be in conformance with paragraph (d) of this section, each fuel cell cartridge design type including when contained in or packed with equipment, must pass a 1.2 meter (3.9 feet) drop test onto anunyielding surface in the orientation most likely to result in the failure of the containment system with no loss of contents. Fuel cell cartridges installed in or integral to a fuel cell system are regarded as contained in equipment. Fuel cell cartridges containing a Division 2.1, Division 4.3 or Class 8 material must meet the following additional requirements.
(b) A fuel cell cartridge designed to contain a Division 4.3 or a Class 8 material may contain an
activator provided it is fitted with two independent means of preventing unintended mixing with the fuel during transport.
(c) Each fuel cell cartridge designed to contain a liquefied flammable gas must:
(1) Be capable of withstanding, without leakage or bursting, a pressure of at least two times the equilibrium pressure of the contents at 55 °C (131 °F);
(2) Contain no more than 200 mL of liquefied flammable gas with a vapor pressure not
exceeding 1,000 kPa (150 psig) at 55 °C (131 °F); and (3) Pass the hot water bath test prescribed in accordance with § 173.306(a)(3)(v).
(d) Each fuel cell cartridge designed to contain hydrogen in a metal hydride must conform to the
following:
(1) Each fuel cell cartridge must have a water capacity less than or equal to 120 mL (4 fluid ounces).
(2) Each fuel cell cartridge must be a design type that has been subjected, without leakage
or bursting, a pressure of at least two times the design pressure of the cartridge at 55 °C (131 °F) or 200 kPa (30 psig) more than the design pressure of the cartridge at 55 °C (131 °F), whichever is greater. The pressure at which the test is conducted is referred to as the ‘‘minimum shell burst pressure.’’ The pressure within the fuel cell cartridge must not exceed 5 MPa (725 psig) at 55 °C (131 °F).
(3) Each fuel cell cartridge must be filled in accordance with the procedure provided by the
manufacturer. The manufacturer must provide the following information with each fuel cell cartridge:
(i) Inspection procedures to be carried out before initial filling and before refilling of
the fuel cell cartridge; (ii) Safety precautions and potential hazards to be aware of; (iii) A method of determining when the rated capacity has been achieved; (iv) Minimum and maximum pressure range; (v) Minimum and maximum temperature range; and (vi) Any other requirements to be met for initial filling and refilling including the type of
equipment to be used.
(4) Each fuel cell cartridge must be permanently marked with the following information:
49 CFR 173 Subpart F A5-145 SET Environmental, Inc. Non-Bulk Packaging Other Than For Class 1 and 7 Last Revision: May 11, 2020
(i) The rated charging pressure in megapascals (MPa); (ii) The manufacturer’s serial number of the fuel cell cartridges or unique
identification number; and (iii) The expiration date based on the maximum service life (yyyy/mm).
(5) Design type tests: Each fuel cell cartridge design type must be subjected to and pass the
following tests (this includes cartridges integral to a fuel cell):
(i) Drop test. A 1.8 m (5.9 feet) drop test onto an unyielding surface must be performed. There must be no leakage. Leakage must be determined using a soap bubble solution or other equivalent means on all possible leak locations, when the fuel cell cartridge is charged to its rated charging pressure. The fuel cell cartridge must then be hydrostatically pressurized to destruction. The burst pressure must be greater than 85% of the minimum shell burst pressure. The drop must be performed in the following four different orientations:
(A) Vertically, on the end containing the shut-off valve assembly; (B) Vertically, on the end opposite to the shut-off valve assembly; (C) Horizontally, onto a steel apex with a diameter of 3.8 cm (9.7 in), with the
steel apex in the upward position; and (D) At a 45° angle on the end containing the shut-off valve assembl.
(ii) Fire test. A fuel cell cartridge filled to rated capacity (with hydrogen) must be
subjected to a fire engulfment test. The cartridge design (including design types with an integral vent feature) is deemed to pass the fire test if:
(A) The internal pressure vents to zero gauge pressure without the rupture of
the cartridge; or (B) The cartridge withstands the fire for a minimum of 20 minutes without
rupture. (iii) Hydrogen cycling test. A fuel cell cartridge must be subjected to a hydrogen
cycling test to ensure that the design stress limits are not exceeded during use.

proven to meet the testing requirements of the UN Manual of Tests and Criteria, Part III, subsection 38.3 (IBR, see §171.7 of this subchapter), except when otherwise specified by this subchapter.
(c) This section does not apply to articles for which a more specific proper shipping name already exists
in the §172.101 Table. This section does not apply to hazardous materials of Class 1, Division 6.2, Class 7, or radioactive material contained in articles.
(d) Articles containing hazardous materials must be assigned to the appropriate class or division
determined by the hazards present using, where applicable, the precedence criteria prescribed in §173.2a for each of the hazardous materials contained in the article. If hazardous materials classified as Class 9 are contained within the article, all other hazardous materials present in the article must be considered to present a higher hazard.
(e) Subsidiary hazards must be representative of the primary hazard posed by the other hazardous
materials contained within the article. When only one item of hazardous materials is present in the article, the subsidiary hazard(s), if any, is the subsidiary hazard(s) identified in column 6 of the §172.101 Table. If the article contains more than one item of hazardous materials and these could react dangerously with one another during transport, each of the hazardous materials must be enclosed separately.
(f) (1) Packagings must conform to the Packing Group II performance level. The following packagings
are authorized:
(i) Drums (1A2, 1B2, 1N2, 1H2, 1D, 1G); (ii) Boxes (4A, 4B, 4N, 4C1, 4C2, 4D, 4F, 4G, 4H1, 4H2); and (iii) Jerricans (3A2, 3B2, 3H2).

When pressure or vacuum control equipment is required on a packaging authorized in this section, such equipment must be of a self-reclosing design, must prevent package rupture or collapse due to pressure, must prevent significant release of lading due to packaging overturn or splashing or surging during normal transport conditions, and may be external to the packaging.
(i) Pressure control equipment is not required if pressure in the packaging would
increase less than 10 percent as a result of heating the lading from the lowest design operating temperature to a temperature likely to be encountered if the packaging were engulfed in a fire. When pressure control equipment is required, it must prevent rupture of the packaging from heating, including fire engulfment.
(ii) Vacuum control equipment is not required if the packaging is designed to
49 CFR 173 Subpart F A5-157 SET Environmental, Inc. Non-Bulk Packaging Other Than For Class 1 and 7 Last Revision: May 11, 2020
withstand an external pressure of 100 kPa (14.5 psig) or if pressure in the packaging would decrease less than 10 percent as a result of the lading cooling from the highest design operating temperature to the lowest temperature incurred in transport. When vacuum control equipment is required, it must prevent collapse of the packaging from a cooling-induced pressure differential.
(iii) When the regulations require a reclosing pressure relief device, the lading must
not render the devices inoperable (i.e. from clogging, freezing, or fouling). If the lading affects the proper operation of the device, the packaging must have:
(A) A safety relief device incorporating a frangible disc or a permanent
opening, each having a maximum effective area of 22 cm\2\ (3.4 in.\2\), for transportation by highway;

not allow the release of lading during normal transportation conditions (i.e., due to splashing or surging).
(2) Closures. All openings, except permanent vent openings authorized in paragraph
(g)(1)(iii) of this section, must be securely closed during transportation. Packagings must be substantially leak-tight so as not to allow any more than dripping or trickling of a non-continuous flow when overturned. Closures must be designed and constructed to withstand, without exceeding the yield strength of the packaging, twice the static loading produced by the lading in any packaging orientation and at all operating temperatures.
(3) Strength. Each packaging must be designed and constructed to withstand, without
exceeding the yield strength of the packaging, twice the static loading produced by the lading in any orientation and at all operating temperatures.
(4) Compatibility. The packaging and lading must be compatible over the entire operating
temperature range.
(5) Markings. In addition to any other markings required by this subchapter, each packaging must be durably marked in a place readily accessible for inspection in characters at least 4.8 mm (3/16 inch) with the manufacturer's name, date of manufacture, design temperature range, and maximum product weight (or ``load limit'' for tank cars) or volumetric capacity.
(6) Accident damage protection. For transportation by highway, external loading and
unloading valves and closures must be protected from impact damage resulting from collision or overturn. Spraying equipment and the road oil application portion of a packaging are excepted from this requirement.
(7) New construction. Specification packagings that are being manufactured for the transport
of elevated temperature materials must be authorized for current construction. (h) Exceptions.
