Rulemaking of Conditional Exemption for Undeployed Airbags Management

Rulemaking of Conditional Exemption for Undeployed Airbags Management

The California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) proposes for approval the regular rulemaking to finalize the conditional exemption for undeployed airbags that are discarded (airbag waste) under California Code of Regulations, title 22, division 4.5, chapter 11, section 66261.4, provided generators of airbag waste (airbag waste handlers) meet the conditions of the exemption. The regulations will require the airbag waste handler to comply with the conditions listed under the exemption for undeployed airbag waste to not be subject to hazardous waste management standards until it is received at an airbag waste collection or designated facility. These conditions require that the airbag waste handler manage the airbag waste in a manner that addresses the risks posed by the waste, as undeployed airbag waste can exhibit the hazardous waste characteristics of ignitability and/or reactivity. The conditional exemption moves the point of hazardous waste generation from the airbag waste handler to the airbag waste collection facility or designated facility, which provides economic and regulatory relief for airbag waste handlers to encourage them to expeditiously transport airbag waste to these facilities designed to handle these hazardous wastes.
