ATCP 34.04 NoteNote: A grant recipient is responsible for managing chemical waste in compliance with applicable law. This chapter does not expand or limit the application of state or federal hazardous waste laws administered by the Wisconsin department of natural resources. This chapter does not authorize or require a grant recipient to serve as an enforcement agency, nor does it require a grant recipient to indemnify persons that violate state or federal law. Participation in a clean sweep project does not relieve any person of the duty to comply with applicable law, or indemnify that person for any liability to which that person is subject.
