regulations, and statutes and revise the
specifications accordingly. Proper segregation and
handling of waste can significantly reduce the
generated volume (and cost) of disposing hazardous
wastes.

**************************************************************************
NOTE: Research State, regional, and local
requirements regarding the recycling of lead wastes.
Ensure that other hazardous components are not
present. The entire waste stream or discreet
portions of the waste may be appropriately packaged
and transported for recycling (Consider Section
01572 CONSTRUCTION WASTE MANAGEMENT). If waste is
eligible for sanitary landfill or C&D landfill
disposal, some of these requirements are not
applicable.
**************************************************************************
a. All material, whether hazardous or non-hazardous shall be disposed
in accordance with all laws and provisions and all federal, State or
local regulations. Ensure all waste is properly characterized. The
result of each waste characterization (TCLP for RCRA materials) will
dictate disposal requirements.
b. Contractor is responsible for segregation of waste. Collect
lead-contaminated waste, scrap, debris, bags, containers, equipment,
and lead-contaminated clothing that may produce airborne concentrations
of lead particles. Label the containers in accordance with 29 CFR
1926.62 and 40 CFR 261.
c. Dispose of lead-contaminated material classified as hazardous waste
at an [EPA] [or] [State] approved hazardous waste treatment, storage,
or disposal facility off Government property.
d. Store waste materials in U.S. Department of Transportation (49 CFR
178) approved 208 liter 55 gallon drums. Properly label each drum to
identify the type of waste (49 CFR 172) and the date the drum was
filled. For hazardous waste, the collection drum requires
marking/labeling in accordance with 40 CFR 262 during the
accumulation/collection timeframe. The Contracting Officer or an
authorized representative will assign an area for interim storage of
waste-containing drums. Do not store hazardous waste drums in interim
storage longer than 90 calendar days from the date affixed to each drum.
e. Handle, store, transport, and dispose lead or lead-contaminated
waste in accordance with 40 CFR 260, 40 CFR 261, 40 CFR 262, 40 CFR 263,
40 CFR 264, and 40 CFR 265. Comply with land disposal restriction
notification requirements as required by 40 CFR 268.
