RULE §330.155Salvaging and Scavenging

Salvaging must not be allowed to interfere with prompt sanitary disposal of solid waste or to create public health nuisances. Salvaged materials may be considered as potential recycled materials. The owner or operator shall remove the salvaged items from the facility often enough to prevent the items from becoming a nuisance, to preclude the discharge of any pollutants from the area, and to prevent an excessive accumulation of the material at the facility. Class 1 industrial and other special wastes received at the disposal facility must not be salvaged. Pesticide, fungicide, rodenticide, and herbicide containers must not be salvaged unless being salvaged through a state-supported recycling program. Scavenging must not be allowed.
