Waste specific prohibitions - Toxicity characteristic metal wastes
Cite as N.D. Admin. Code § 33.1-24-05-274
1.
Effective August 24, 1998, the following wastes are prohibited from land disposal: the wastes
specified in chapter 33.1-24-02 as hazardous waste numbers D004 through D011 that are
newly identified (for example, wastes, soil, or debris identified as hazardous by the toxic
characteristic leaching procedure but not the extraction procedure), and waste, soil, or debris
from mineral processing operations that is identified as hazardous by the specifications at
chapter 33.1-24-02.
2.
Effective November 26, 1998, the following waste is prohibited from land disposal: slag from
secondary lead smelting which exhibits the toxicity characteristic due to the presence of one
or more metals listed in section 33.1-24-02-14.
3.
Effective May 26, 2000, the following wastes are prohibited from land disposal: newly
identified characteristic wastes from elemental phosphorus processing, radioactive waste
mixed with D004 through D011 wastes that are newly identified (for example, wastes, soil, or
debris identified as hazardous by the toxic characteristic leaching procedure but not the
extraction procedure); or mixed with newly identified characteristic mineral processing wastes,
soil, or debris.
4.
Between May 26, 1998, and May 26, 2000, newly identified characteristic wastes from
elemental phosphorus processing, radioactive waste mixed with D004 through D011 wastes
that are newly identified (for example, wastes, soil, or debris identified as hazardous by the
toxicity characteristic leaching procedure but not the extraction procedure), or mixed with
newly identified characteristic mineral processing wastes, soil, or debris may be disposed in a
landfill or surface impoundment only if such unit is in compliance with the requirements
specified in subsection 8 of section 33.1-24-05-254.
5.
The requirements of subsections 1 and 2 do not apply if:
a.
The wastes meet the applicable treatment standards specified in sections
33.1-24-05-280 through 33.1-24-05-289;
b.
Persons have been granted an exemption from a prohibition pursuant to a petition under
section 33.1-24-05-255, with respect to those wastes and units covered by the petition;
c.
The wastes meet the applicable alternate treatment standards established pursuant to a
petition granted under section 33.1-24-05-284; or
d.
Persons have been granted an extension to the effective date of a prohibition pursuant to
section 33.1-24-05-254, with respect to these wastes covered by the extension.
6.
To determine whether a hazardous waste identified in this section exceeds the applicable
treatment standards specified in section 33.1-24-05-280, the initial generator must test a
sample of the waste extract or the entire waste, depending on whether the treatment
standards are expressed as concentrations in the waste extract or the waste, or the generator
may use knowledge of the waste. If the waste contains constituents (including underlying
hazardous constituents in characteristic wastes) in excess of the applicable universal
treatment standard levels of section 33.1-24-05-288, the waste is prohibited from land
disposal, and all requirements of sections 33.1-24-05-250 through 33.1-24-05-299 are
applicable, except as otherwise specified.
