REGULATION GUIDANCE: (f) Any container used to accumulate or transport universal waste aerosol cans, or the contents removed from a universal waste aerosol can or processing device, unless the contents have been determined to not be hazardous waste, shall meet all of the following requirements: (1) (A) Except when waste is added or removed or as provided in subparagraph (B),the container shall be closed, structurally sound, and compatible with the contents of the universal waste aerosol can, and shall show no evidence of leakage, spillage, or damage that could cause leakage under reasonably foreseeable conditions. (B) The closed container requirement in subparagraph (A)does not apply to a container used to accumulate universal waste aerosol cans prior to processing the cans pursuant to subdivision (h),or prior to shipping the cans offsite, except that the container shall be covered at the end of each workday. (2) The container shall be placed in a location that has sufficient ventilation to avoid formation of an explosive atmosphere, and shall be designed, built, and maintained to withstand pressures reasonably expected during storage and transportation. (3) (A) The container shall be placed on or above a floor or other surface that is free of cracks or gaps and is sufficiently impervious and bermed to contain leaks and spills. (B) Subparagraph (A)does not apply to a container used to accumulate universal waste aerosol cans prior to processing the cans pursuant to subdivision (h)or prior to shipping the cans offsite.
