2.3 Exempted Waste Streams <br /> DTSC exempts a waste stream from the require- <br /> ments of SB 14 (but not from the management <br /> requirements of other Articles of 22 CCR) if the Ti p <br /> waste has no source reduction opportunities or <br /> is not routinely generated. A generator does not <br /> include an exempted waste stream when calcu- <br /> lating the total weight of hazardous waste gener- <br /> ated at a site to determine SB 14 applicability. <br /> For the reasons stated above and other common <br /> limitations, the following waste streams are spe- <br /> cifically exempted by 22 CCR Section 67100.2. <br /> Process specific exemptions, such as in-line re- <br /> cycling of process waste, need to be determined <br /> individually. Exempted waste streams include: (''1 <br /> S <br /> • Motor vehicle fluids and motor vehicle <br /> filters <br /> • Lead acid batteries rD <br /> • Household hazardous wastes, wastes <br /> from household collection events, and tv <br /> wastes separated at community landfills <br /> • Waste pesticides and pesticide containers <br /> collected by county agricultural commissioners <br /> • Spent munitions and ordinance n <br /> • Decommissioned utility poles <br /> • Oil generated from decommissioned refrigeration units _. <br /> • Mercury relays and low-level radioactive tubes generated from removal of telephone <br /> equipment. <br /> • Lighting wastes including ballasts and fluorescent tubes. <br /> • Hazardous wastes that are designated as universal wastes in Section 66261.9. <br /> • Waste from site cleanup and mitigation activities, including remedial investigations <br /> • Samples and evidence from enforcement actions <br /> • Asbestos <br /> • Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) <br /> • Formation fluids and solids from oil,gas, and geothermal exploration and field <br /> development <br /> • Recent legislation expands the geothermal drilling waste exemption to include (under <br /> certain conditions) wastes generated from the exploration, development, or <br /> production of geothermal energy (Senate Bill 1294, Chapter 143, Statutes of 2006). <br /> • Demolition waste/major renovation waste <br /> • Waste generated from emergency response actions <br /> • Waste generated from laboratory scale research <br /> • Medical waste <br /> If you have any questions regarding SB 14 exempted waste streams, please contact OPPGTs <br /> Source Reduction Unit at (916) 322-3670. A generator may request OPPGT to exempt a <br /> hazardous waste stream with no practicable source reduction. <br /> 19 <br />
