Section 165:30-17-1 - Purpose and applicability

(a) The rules in this Subchapter are intended to implement a uniform registration and permitting program for motor carriers who transport hazardous waste in interstate or intrastate commerce of a type and amount that requires the shipment to be accompanied by a Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest contained in 40 CFR, Part 262; and to conform to the procedures and requirement contained in the report submitted to the secretary of transportation pursuant to Section 22 of the HMTUSA by the Alliance for Uniform Hazardous Materials Transportation Procedures (49 USC app 1801-1813 amended by Sec. 20).

(b) The rules in this Subchapter are intended to reflect or complement the procedures as set forth by the Alliance. In the event of conflict, the procedures as set forth by the Alliance will prevail.

(d) The Transportation Division may enter into agreements with federal agencies, a national repository or other participating states as necessary to allow the reciprocal registration and permitting of motor carriers transporting hazardous waste. The agreements may include procedures for determining a base state, the collection and distribution of registration fees, dispute resolution, the exchange of information for reporting and enforcement purposes, and other provisions necessary to fully implement, administer and enforce the uniform program.

(e) This Subchapter preempts and supersedes any hazardous waste transportation registration or permitting program administered or enforced by any state agency, city, county, or other political subdivision of the state.
