NR 660.42 Notification requirement for hazardous secondary material. NR 660.42(1)(1)
A facility managing hazardous secondary material under s.
NR 660.30,
661.0004 (1) (w),
(x),
(y), or
(za) shall send a notification to the department prior to operating under the regulatory provision and by March 1 of each even-numbered year thereafter using EPA Form 8700–12. The notification shall include all of the following information:
NR 660.42(1)(a)
(a) The name, address, and EPA ID number, if applicable, of the facility.
NR 660.42(1)(d)
(d) The regulation under which the hazardous secondary material will be managed.
NR 660.42(1)(e)
(e) For reclaimers and intermediate facilities managing hazardous secondary material in accordance with s.
NR 661.0004 (1) (x) or
(y), whether the reclaimer or intermediate facility has financial assurance. Financial assurance is not applicable for persons managing hazardous secondary material generated and reclaimed under the control of the generator.
NR 660.42(1)(f)
(f) The date the facility began or expects to begin managing the hazardous secondary material in accordance with the regulation.
NR 660.42(1)(g)
(g) A list of hazardous secondary material that will be managed according to the regulation, reported as the EPA hazardous waste numbers that would apply if the hazardous secondary materials were managed as hazardous wastes.
NR 660.42(1)(h)
(h) For each hazardous secondary material, whether the hazardous secondary material, or any portion thereof, will be managed in a land-based unit.
NR 660.42(1)(i)
(i) The quantity of each hazardous secondary material to be managed annually.
NR 660.42(1)(j)
(j) The certification, included in EPA Form 8700-12, signed and dated by an authorized representative of the facility.
NR 660.42(2)
(2) If a facility managing hazardous secondary material has submitted a notification, but then subsequently stops managing hazardous secondary material in accordance with the regulations in sub.
(1), the facility shall notify the department within 30 days using EPA Form 8700-12. For the purposes of this section, a facility has stopped managing hazardous secondary material if the facility no longer generates, manages or reclaims hazardous secondary material under the regulations in sub.

NR 660.43
NR 660.43 Legitimate recycling of hazardous secondary material. NR 660.43(1)(1)
Factors that are required. Recycling of hazardous secondary material for the purpose of the exclusions or exemptions from the hazardous waste rules shall be legitimate. Hazardous secondary material that is not legitimately recycled is discarded material and is a solid waste. In determining if recycling is legitimate, a person shall address all of the requirements under this subsection and consider the requirements in sub.
(2). Legitimate recycling under this subsection includes all of the following:
NR 660.43(1)(a)
(a)
Factor 1. Legitimate recycling shall involve a hazardous secondary material that provides a useful contribution to the recycling process or to a product or intermediate of the recycling process. The hazardous secondary material provides a useful contribution if it meets any of the following conditions:
NR 660.43(1)(a)1.
1. It contributes valuable ingredients to a product or intermediate.
NR 660.43(1)(a)3.
3. It is the source of a valuable constituent recovered in the recycling process.
NR 660.43(1)(b)
(b)
Factor 2. The recycling process shall produce a valuable product or intermediate. The product or intermediate is valuable if it is one of the following:
NR 660.43(1)(b)2.
2. Used by the recycler or the generator as an effective substitute for a commercial product or as an ingredient or intermediate in an industrial process.
NR 660.43(1)(c)
(c)
Factor 3. The generator and the recycler shall manage the hazardous secondary material as a valuable commodity when it is under their control. Where there is an analogous raw material, the hazardous secondary material shall be managed, at a minimum, in a manner consistent with the management of the raw material or in an equally protective manner. Where there is no analogous raw material, the hazardous secondary materials shall be contained. Hazardous secondary material that are released into the environment and are not recovered immediately are discarded.
NR 660.43(2)
(2)
Factor that shall be considered. In making a determination that a hazardous secondary material is legitimately recycled, a person shall evaluate all factors in par.
(a) and consider legitimacy as a whole. If, after careful evaluation of these considerations, the factor in this subsection is not met, then this fact may be an indication that the material is not legitimately recycled. However, the factor in this subsection does not have to be met for the recycling to be considered legitimate. In evaluating the extent to which this factor is met and in determining whether a process that does not meet this factor is still legitimate, a person can consider exposure from toxics in the product, the bioavailability of the toxics in the product and other relevant considerations. In making a determination as to the overall legitimacy of a specific recycling activity, all of the following factors shall be considered:
NR 660.43(2)(a)
(a)
Factor 4. Whether any of the following applies to the product of the recycling process does not:
NR 660.43(2)(a)2.
2. Contains concentrations of hazardous constituents found in ch.
NR 661 Appendix VIII at levels that are significantly elevated from those found in analogous products.
