NR 670.001(1)(b)
(b) The rules in this chapter cover basic department licensing requirements, such as license application requirements, standard license conditions, and monitoring and reporting requirements. These rules are part of a regulatory scheme implementing chs.

291, Stats., appear in the Wisconsin Administrative Code.
NR 670.001(1)(c)

Overview of the hazardous waste license program. Not later than 90 days after the promulgation or revision of rules in ch.
NR 661, identifying and listing hazardous wastes, generators, and transporters of hazardous waste, and owners or operators of hazardous waste treatment, storage, or disposal facilities may be required to file a notification of that activity under s.
NR 660.07. Treatment, storage, or disposal of hazardous waste by any person who has not applied for and received a hazardous waste license is prohibited. A license application consists of two parts, part A (see s.
NR 670.013) and a feasibility and plan of operation report (see s.
NR 670.014 and applicable sections in ss.
NR 670.015 to
670.029). Treatment and storage facilities (TSDs) that are otherwise subject to licensing under ch.
291, Stats., and meet the criteria in pars.
(a) or
(b) may be eligible for a standardized license under subch.
J of ch. NR 667. For existing HWM facilities, the requirements to submit a license application is satisfied by submitting only part A until the date the department sets for submitting the feasibility and plan of operation report. Part A consists of Forms 1 and 3 of the EPA Consolidated Permit Application Forms. Timely submission of both notification under s.
NR 660.07 and part A qualifies owners and operators of existing HWM facilities (who are required to have a license) for an interim license under s.
291.25, Stats. Facility owners and operators with an interim license are treated as having been issued an operating license until the department makes a final determination on the operating license application. Facility owners and operators with interim licenses shall comply with interim license standards set forth at chs.
NR 665 and
666. Facility owners and operators with interim licenses are not relieved from complying with other state requirements. For existing HWM facilities, the department shall set a date, giving at least 6 months notice, for submission of the feasibility and plan of operation report. There is no form for the feasibility and plan of operation report; rather, the report shall be submitted in narrative form and contain the information set forth in ss.
NR 670.014 to
670.029. Owners or operators of new HWM facilities shall submit the license application at least 180 days before physical construction is expected to commence.
NR 670.001(2)(a)
(a) The facility generates hazardous waste and then stores or non-thermally treats the hazardous waste on-site in tanks, containers, or containment buildings.
NR 670.001(2)(b)
(b) The facility receives hazardous waste generated off-site by a generator under the same ownership as the receiving facility, and then stores or non-thermally treats the hazardous waste in tanks, containers, or containment buildings.
