Section 61-107.279.C.24 - Off-site Shipments

Except as provided in paragraphs a. through c. of this section, generators must ensure that their used oil is transported only by transporters who have obtained a Department identification number and a permit from the Department.

a. Generators may transport, without an EPA identification number and a Department registration, used oil that is generated at the generator's site and used oil collected from household do-it-yourselfers to a used oil collection center provided that:

(1) The generator transports the used oil in a vehicle owned by the generator or owned by an employee of the generator;

(2) The generator transports no more than 55 gallons of used oil at any time; and

(3) The generator transports the used oil to a used oil collection center that is registered by the Department to manage used oil.

b. Generators may transport, without an EPA identification number and a Department registration, used oil that is generated at the generator's site to an aggregation point provided that:

(1) The generator transports the used oil in a vehicle owned by the generator or owned by an employee of the generator;

(2) The generator transports no more than 55 gallons of used oil at any time; and

(3) The generator transports the used oil to an aggregation point that is owned and/or operated by the same generator.

c. Used oil generators may arrange for used oil to be transported by a transporter without an EPA identification number and a Department registration if the used oil is reclaimed under a contractual agreement pursuant to which reclaimed oil is returned by the processor/re-refiner to the generator for use as a lubricant, cutting oil, or coolant. The contract (known as a "tolling arrangement") must indicate:

(1) The type of used oil and the frequency of shipments;

(2) That the vehicle used to transport the used oil to the processing/re-refining facility and to deliver recycled used oil back to the generator is owned and operated by the used oil processor/re-refiner; and

(3) That reclaimed oil will be returned to the generator.

d. Used oil generators shall maintain a copy of the used oil manifest provided by the used oil transporter. A copy of each used oil manifest shall be maintained by the generator for a minimum of three (3) years.
