§ 25217.2. Acceptance of recyclable latex paint at certain locations

(a) Recyclable latex paint may be accepted at any location if all of the following conditions are met:

(1) The location manages the recyclable latex paint in accordance with all applicable latex paint product management procedures specified by federal, state, or local law or regulation which include, at a minimum, that the recyclable latex paint is stored and handled in a manner that minimizes the chance of exposing the handler and the environment to potentially hazardous constituents that may be in, or have been incidentally added to, the recyclable latex paint.

(2) Any latex paint that is accepted as recyclable by the location and which is later discovered to be nonrecyclable shall be deemed to be a waste generated at the location where this discovery is made and this latex paint shall be managed as a waste in accordance with this chapter.

(3) The owner or operator of the location has a business plan that meets the requirements of Section 25504, if required by the administrating agency, including, but not limited to, emergency response plans and procedures, as described in subdivision (b) of Section 25504. The plans and procedures shall specifically address recyclable latex paint or meet the department's emergency response and contingency requirements which are applicable to generators of hazardous waste.

(4) If the recyclable latex paint is not excluded or exempted from regulation under Chapter I (commencing with Section 1.1) of Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations, the location meets all applicable federal requirements.
