Chapter 2 Applicability 2.1 Applicability Thresholds SB 14 applies to a generator that, by site, routinely generates, through ongoing pro- cesses and operations, more than 12,000 kilograms of hazardous waste in a reporting year, or more than 12 kilograms of extremely hazardous waste in a reporting year. It includes hazardous waste regulated by Title 40 Code of Federal Regulations (40 CFR), as legislated in the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). It also includes non-RCRA California-only hazardous waste. The non-RCRA waste is not regu- lated as hazardous by 40 CFR, but is regulated as hazardous by Title 22,California Code of Regulations (22 CCR). The generator must sum the total hazardous waste generated at his/her site during the reporting year then subtract any wastes that are exempted, not routinely generated, or �- excluded per recycling law. If the total remaining wastes exceed either SB 14 threshold, the generator must prepare the following documents by September 1, 2011 (see example): �+ �D 1.

Summary Progress Report (SPR) Paint waste 331 10,000 pounds for reporting year 2010 Solvent 214 1,500 pounds _. Waste oil 221 500 pounds rh The generator must also send the completed Drums/containers 513 5,400 pounds .� SPR to OPPGT on or before September 1, 2011. A copy of the Plan, the Performance Contaminated Rags 551 500 pounds Report, and the SPR must be maintained at the site and made available for review upon request. Threshold Equivalents To determine the applicability of SB 14 to a specific site, the generator should understand the terms used in SB 12,00o kg = 26,400 lbs 14, identify wastes generated at the site that are excluded 12,000 kg = 13.2 tons from SB 14, collect data on the weight of hazardous 12,00o kg = 3,100 gallons wastes and extremely hazardous wastes generated at the 12 kg = 26.4 lbs site during the reporting year, and be familiar with opera- tions at the site. 2.2 Terms and Definitions The generator of a waste must determine if the waste is a hazardous waste or an extremely hazardous waste. Sections 25115 and 25117 of the Health and Safety Code define extremely hazardous waste and hazardous waste, respectively. 22 CCR Section 66262.11 provides the steps a generator must follow to determine if the waste is a hazardous waste or extremely hazardous waste. 17
