(A) For the purposes of this section, "special wastes" is defined as nonresidential or commercial solid wastes, other than regulated hazardous wastes, that are either difficult or dangerous to handle and require unusual management at municipal solid waste landfills, including, but not limited to: (1) pesticide wastes; (2) liquid wastes and bulk liquid wastes; (3) sludges; (4) industrial process wastes, defined as wastes generated as a direct or indirect result of the manufacture of a product or the performance of a service, including, but not limited to, spent pickling liquors, cutting oils, chemical catalysts, distillation bottoms, etching acids, equipment cleanings, point sludges, core sands, metallic dust sweepings, asbestos dust, and off-specification, contaminated, or recalled wholesale or retail products. Specifically excluded are uncontaminated packaging materials, uncontaminated machinery components, landscape waste, and construction or demolition debris; (5) wastes from a pollution control process; (6) residue or debris from the cleanup of a spill or release of chemical substances, commercial products, or wastes listed in items (1) through (5); (7) soil, water, residue, debris, or articles that are contaminated from the cleanup of a facility or site formerly used for the generation, storage, treatment, recycling, reclamation, or disposal of wastes listed in items (1) through (6); and (8) containers and drums. (B) A special waste must not be disposed of nor accepted for disposal at a municipal solid waste landfill without prior written approval by the disposal facility in accordance with department requirements. (C) A facility may apply to the department at any time for modifications or additions to the types of special waste disposed of or methods for disposal. (D) Not later than six months after this article is effective or the initial receipt of wastes, whichever is later, the owner or operator of a municipal solid waste landfill shall prepare and submit to the department a waste analysis plan that addresses, at a minimum, the: (1) parameters for which each waste will be analyzed and the rationale for the selection of those parameters; (2) test methods which will be used to test for those parameters; (3) sampling methods which will be used to obtain a representative sampling of the special waste to be analyzed; (4) frequency with which the initial analysis of the special waste will be reviewed or repeated to ensure that the analysis is accurate and up to date; and (5) procedures which will be used to inspect and, if necessary, analyze each special waste received at the facility to ensure that it matches the identity of the special waste designated on the accompanying transportation record. At a minimum, the plan must describe the: (a) procedures which will be used to determine the identity of each special waste managed at the facility; and (b) the sampling methods which will be used to obtain a representative sample of the special waste to be identified, if the identification method includes sampling. (E) The department shall respond to the analysis plan within ninety days of the date of its receipt by the department.
