N.Y. Environmental Conservation Law § 27-0905: Manifest system

§ 27-0905. Manifest system.

Not later than six months after the promulgation of regulations for

hazardous wastes pursuant to paragraph one of section 27-0903 of this

title, and after consultation and coordination with the commissioner of

transportation, the commissioner shall promulgate in a manner consistent

with the state administrative procedure act, regulations establishing a

manifest system by which to monitor the transportation, storage, and

disposal of hazardous waste and to assure that such acts are performed

in a manner consistent with this title. Such manifest systems shall

conform to that adopted by the administrator pursuant to RCRA. Where

appropriate and consistent with the provisions of RCRA, the commissioner

may provide for exemption from the provisions of this section for the

transport of hazardous waste by the generator from one facility to

another owned and operated by the generator. As a minimum such system

shall require that:

1. Hazardous waste generators use a specified form identifying the

composition, quantity and disposition of each shipment of hazardous

waste;

2. Copies of manifest be carried during transportation of hazardous

waste; and

3. Hazardous waste generators, hazardous waste transporters and owners

and operators of hazardous waste treatment, storage and disposal

facilities maintain copies of manifest for at least three years.
