Chs. NR 590 and 600-685 - Solid and hazardous waste management.
Summary of Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis:
In general, the revisions to the hazardous waste code will not result in substantial changes to the types of small businesses affected by the current hazardous waste rules. However, the new universal wastes chapter (NR 690) will assist small businesses in managing small quantities of certain ubiquitous hazardous wastes. The rule affects batteries, recalled pesticides and other unused pesticides and thermostats. It is written to allow for the incorporation of further waste streams. The rule should have the effect of assisting small businesses in managing these wastes by adopting streamlined requirements for their management and handling, and to encourage recycling of them.
