NDEP Workshop on Proposed Changes to Nevada’s Hazardous Waste Regulations

The Nevada Division of Environmental Protection is proposing to modify state hazardous waste regulations NAC 444.8618 through NAC 444.8633. The proposed amendments to Nevada’s existing hazardous waste regulations will:

  • Adopt by reference certain federal regulations with which a person who generates, transports, treats, stores, disposes or otherwise manages hazardous waste or used oil must comply;
  • Set forth certain specific parts and sections of federal regulations that are not adopted by reference or are adopted by reference but with certain revisions; and
  • Deem certain references in specific parts and sections of federal regulations to have certain meaning, with limit exceptions.

A workshop will be held to solicit comments on the proposed amendments on Wednesday, October 30th at 2:30 PM.
