It is mislabeled or not adequately labeled,unless the material is correctly <br /> and/or adequately labeled within 10 days after discovery of mislabeled or <br /> inadequate labeling. <br /> 2. It is packaged in deteriorated or damaged containers,unless the material is <br /> contained in sound or undamaged containers within 96 hours after discovery <br /> of deterioration and/or damage. <br /> The determination of the hazardous status of wastes rests with the California Department <br /> of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC), Local Health Department, Water Quality Control <br /> Board, Air Quality Control Boards, or other Federal or State Regulatory Agencies. These <br /> determinations may vary in different parts of the State; therefore, it is necessary to be <br /> familiar with the disposal requirements of the local regulatory agencies. <br /> July 2018 <br />
