This rule establishes and adopts a program of regulation for the generation, treatment, storage, and disposal of hazardous waste to the extent necessary for the protection of the public health and safety and the environment. This rule incorporates by reference its federal counterpart: 40 CFR Parts 260 – 279
Section 4 of this rule subjects conditionally exempt small quantity generators of hazardous waste (CESQG) to notification requirements that are not part of the federal counterpart regulation. West Virginia solid waste rules restrict disposal of hazardous waste in municipal and non-hazardous waste industrial landfills. Requiring CESQGs to register helps to ensure hazardous waste is not disposed of in a landfill that is not permitted to accept it.
