| ||||
(415 ILCS 5/22.01) (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 1022.01)
| ||||
Sec. 22.01. Manifests for nonhazardous special waste. When | ||||
manifests
are required by the Board for the shipment
of | ||||
nonhazardous special waste, the manifests shall consist of | ||||
forms prescribed by the Agency. The forms must comply with the | ||||
requirements of this Section and may be purchased from a third | ||||
party. such manifests shall be
identical to manifests required | ||||
for
the shipment of hazardous waste. Such manifests may be | ||||
provided by the
Agency, and shall be identical to the manifests | ||||
required by the Board for
hazardous waste. Generators of | ||||
nonhazardous special waste and facilities
accepting | ||||
nonhazardous special waste are not required to submit copies of
| ||||
nonhazardous special waste manifests to the Agency; provided, | ||||
however, that
generators of nonhazardous special waste | ||||
containing polychlorinated
biphenyls and facilities accepting | ||||
nonhazardous special waste containing
polychlorinated | ||||
biphenyls shall submit copies of nonhazardous special waste
| ||||
manifests to the Agency for shipments of waste containing | ||||
polychlorinated
biphenyls. Copies of each manifest shall be | ||
retained for 3 years by
generators and facilities, and shall be | ||
available for
inspection and copying by the Agency. The Agency | ||
may adopt such
procedures for the distribution of copies of | ||
manifests as it deems necessary.
Nothing in this Section shall | ||
preclude the Agency from collecting
fees under Section 22.8 (g) | ||
of this Act. Generators of nonhazardous special
waste shall not | ||
be required to file reports with the Agency regarding the
| ||
shipment of nonhazardous special waste within the State of | ||
Illinois;
provided, however, that the Board may require | ||
generators of nonhazardous
special waste to file annual reports | ||
with the Agency regarding the shipment
of nonhazardous special | ||
waste out-of-state.
Commencing February 1, 1992, and annually | ||
thereafter, facilities
accepting nonhazardous special waste | ||
shall file a report with the Agency,
specifying the quantities | ||
and disposition of nonhazardous special
waste accepted for | ||
treatment, storage or disposal during the previous calendar | ||
year.
| ||
Nothing in this Section shall be interpreted or construed | ||
to prohibit
any company treating, storing or disposing of
| ||
nonhazardous special wastes
from requiring manifests to be | ||
submitted to it for such wastes.
This Section does not apply to | ||
potentially infectious medical waste.
