If the petition is granted by the administrator, the director shall do both of the following: (i) Within 60 days of the redesignation by the administrator, request any information necessary to evaluate the petition.(ii) Within 180 days of receiving all information necessary to evaluate the petition, redesignate the waste and impose any conditions on the redesignation necessary to protect human health and the environment.(b) If the waste is listed in this part, but not listed in the provisions of 40 C.F.R. part 261, subpart D, petition the director to exclude the waste at the particular generating facility from the lists in the part. The petition shall include that information specified by the provisions of 40 C.F.R. §260.22(i) and shall demonstrate that either the waste does not contain hazardous constituents or that the waste does contain hazardous constituents, but is not capable of posing a substantial present or potential hazard to human health or the environment when improperly treated, stored, transported, disposed of, or otherwise managed, considering the factors listed in the provisions of 40 C.F.R. § 261.11(a)(3). After receiving a petition for an exclusion, the director shall do both of the following: (i) Within 60 days of receiving a petition for an exclusion, request any information necessary to evaluate the petition.(ii) Within 180 days of receiving all information necessary to evaluate the petition, either approve the petition with any conditions necessary to protect human health and the environment or deny the petition.(c) If the waste is treated, stored, or disposed of as part of closure or partial closure of a treatment, storage, or disposal facility or if the waste is contaminated soil deemed hazardous under R 299.9203(1) or R 299.9214 due to its mixture with a hazardous waste, petition the director to exclude the waste at the particular facility from regulation under these rules.
