Title 9 - Industrial Hazardous Waste Management
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.
