CFR /  Title 40  /  Part 355  /  Sec. 355.16 How do I determine the quantity of extremely hazardous

For the three forms of solids that are listed in Sec. 355.15(a)(1) through (3), use these instructions to determine the quantity of extremely hazardous substance present:

(a) Solid in powdered form with a particle size less than 100 microns. Multiply the weight percent of solid with a particle size less than 100 microns in a particular container by the total weight of solid in the container.

(b) Solid in solution. Multiply the weight percent of the non-reactive solid in solution in a particular container by the total weight of solution in that container. Then multiply by 0.2.

Note to paragraph (b):

This reduction in quantity must not be used to determine the amount present at one-time at a facility for reporting under 40 CFR 370.10.

(c) Solid in molten form. Multiply the weight of the non-reactive solid in molten form by 0.3.

Note to paragraph (c):

This reduction in quantity must not be used to determine the amount present at one-time at a facility for reporting under 40 CFR 370.10. [73 FR 65462, Nov. 3, 2008, as amended at 77 FR 16688, Mar. 22, 2012]
