the waste and begin managing the waste according to the more stringent classification
requirements according to the following schedule:
(1) if mandated by a federal or state law, as specified in
that law;

as required in that rule adoption;
(3) if not otherwise specified, within 180 days of the effective
date of the rule amendment adopting the new classification criteria;
(4) in situations where a compliance date creates an unusual
hardship a generator may request a different implementation time under the
variance provisions of §335.514 of this title (relating to Variance from
Waste Classification Provisions).
