Exclusions. The following recyclable materials are not CHS for purposes of the regulations indicated: Industrial ethyl alcohol that is reclaimed is not a CHS for purposes of COMAR 26.13.03—26.13.09, except that: Exports and imports are subject to the requirements of 40 CFR Part 262, Subpart H, as made applicable in COMAR 26.13.03.07 ; A person initiating a shipment for reclamation in a foreign country, and any intermediary arranging for the shipment, shall comply with the requirements of §B(2) of this regulation; and A transporter transporting a shipment for export shall comply with the requirements of §B(3) of this regulation. Scrap metal that is not excluded under Regulation .04A(11) of this chapter, for purposes of COMAR 26.13.03—26.13.07; and Fuels produced from the refining of oil-bearing hazardous wastes along with normal process streams at a petroleum refining facility if those wastes result from normal petroleum refining, production, and transportation practices, for purposes of COMAR 26.13.03—26.13.07 and 40 CFR Part 268. Agency Note: The exclusion of §A-1(1)(c) of this regulation does not apply to fuels produced from oil recovered from oil-bearing hazardous waste in cases where the recovered oil is already excluded under Regulation .04A(15) and (16) of this chapter. The following recyclable materials are not subject to regulation under COMAR 26.13.03—26.13.07 and are not subject to the regulations indicated, 40 CFR Part 268, or the notification requirements of §3010 of RCRA: Industrial ethyl alcohol that is reclaimed is not subject to COMAR 26.13.03—26.13.07, except for the requirements specified in §A-1(1)(a)(i) of this regulation; Scrap metal that is not excluded under Regulation .04A(11) of this chapter; Hazardous waste fuel produced from oil-bearing hazardous wastes from petroleum refining, production, or transportation practices, or produced from oil reclaimed from any of these hazardous wastes if: The hazardous wastes from which the fuel is produced are reintroduced into a process that does not use distillation or does not produce products from crude oil; The fuel meets the used oil fuel specification under COMAR 26.11.09.10B; and No other hazardous wastes are used to produce the hazardous waste fuel; Hazardous waste fuel produced from oil-bearing hazardous wastes from petroleum refining, production, or transportation practices, if: The hazardous waste from which the fuel is produced are reintroduced into a refining process after a point at which contaminants are removed; and The fuel meets the used oil specification under COMAR 26.11.09.10B; and Oil reclaimed from oil-bearing hazardous wastes from petroleum refining, production, or transportation practices if the reclaimed oil: Is burned as a fuel without reintroduction to a refining process: and Meets the used oil specification under COMAR 26.11.09.10B. Used oil is not subject to the requirements of 40 CFR Part 268, COMAR 26.13.03—26.13.04.01D(3) and 26.13.04.01E—26.13.07, but is regulated instead under COMAR 26.13.10.05 and 26.10.15 if it: Would be regulated as a hazardous waste solely because it exhibits a characteristic of hazardous waste under Regulations .11—.14 of this chapter; and Is recycled by being reused, following its original use, for any beneficial purpose, through such means as re-refining, reclamation, burning for energy recovery, or reprocessing. Generators and Transporters. Generators and transporters of recyclable materials are subject to the applicable requirements of COMAR 26.13.03—26.13.04 and the notification requirements under §3010 of RCRA, except as provided in §§A(2) and A-1 of this regulation. A person initiating a shipment of industrial ethyl alcohol for reclamation in a foreign country, and any intermediary arranging for the shipment: Shall comply with the requirements applicable to a primary exporter in 40 CFR §§262.83(b), 262.83(g)(1)—(4) and (6), and 262.84(h); and May export such materials only upon consent of the receiving country and in conformance with the EPA Acknowledgment of Consent as defined in 40 CFR Part 262 Subpart H; and Shall provide a copy of the EPA Acknowledgment of Consent to the transporter transporting the shipment for export. A transporter transporting a shipment of industrial ethyl alcohol for export: May not accept a shipment if the transporter knows the shipment does not conform to the EPA Acknowledgment of Consent; and Shall ensure that a copy of the EPA Acknowledgment of Consent: Accompanies the shipment; and Is delivered to the facility designated by the person initiating the shipment. Storage of Recyclable Materials. Owners or operators of facilities that store recyclable materials before they are recycled are regulated under all applicable provisions of COMAR 26.13.01—26.13.10 and the notification requirements under §3010 of RCRA, except as provided in §§A(2) and A-1 of this regulation.
