NR 661.0039 Note
Note: The requirements of par
. (e) are based on
40 CFR 261.39 (a) (5) (v) and are administered by EPA and not the department because the exercise of foreign relations and international commerce powers is reserved to the federal government under the U.S. Constitution. Wisconsin has adopted these requirements into its rules for the convenience of the regulated community and for completeness. The enforcement of the
40 CFR 261.39 (a) (5) (v) requirements remains EPA's responsibility even though Wisconsin has adopted these requirements into its rules. Wisconsin provides EPA with information on whether Wisconsin facilities designated to receive hazardous waste imports are authorized to manage specific wastes and in ensuring facility compliance with all applicable environmental laws and rules.
NR 661.0039(2)

2. No activities may be performed that use temperatures high enough to volatilize lead from CRTs.
NR 661.0039(3)
(3)
Processed crt glass sent to crt glass making or lead smelting. Glass from used CRTs that is destined for recycling at a CRT glass manufacturer or a lead smelter after processing is not a solid waste unless it is speculatively accumulated as defined in s.

Use constituting disposal. Glass from used CRTs that is used in a manner constituting disposal shall comply with the requirements under subch.
