However, the following materials are not debris: Any material for which a specific treatment standard is provided in subchapter D, chapter 11-268, namely lead acid batteries, cadmium batteries, and radioactive lead solids; Process residuals such as smelter slag and residues from the treatment of waste, wastewater, sludges, or air emission residues; and Intact containers of hazardous waste that are not ruptured and that retain at least 75% of their original volume. A mixture of debris that has not been treated to the standards provided by section 11-268-45 and other material is subject to regulation as debris if the mixture is comprised primarily of debris, by volume, based on visual inspection.(h) ''Hazardous debris'' means debris that contains a hazardous waste listed in subchapter D of chapter 11-261, or that exhibits a characteristic of hazardous waste identified in subchapter C of chapter 11-261.(i) "Underlying hazardous constituent" means any constituent listed in section 11-268-48, Table UTS-Universal Treatment Standards, except fluoride, vanadium, and zinc, which can reasonably be expected to be present at the point of generation of the hazardous waste, at a concentration above the constituent-specific UTS treatment standards.(j) "Inorganic metal-bearing waste" is one for which EPA has established treatment standards for metal hazardous constituents, and which does not otherwise contain significant organic or cyanide content as described in section 11-268-3(c)(1), and is specifically listed in appendix XI.[Eff 6/18/94; am 3/13/99; comp] (Auth: HRS §§ 342J-4, 342J-31, 342J-35) (Imp: 40 C.F.R. §268.2 )
