NR 661.0007. In that event, management of the container is exempt from the requirements of this subchapter. NR 664.0171NR 664.0171 Condition of containers. If a container holding hazardous waste is not in good condition (e.g., severe rusting, apparent structural defects) or if it begins to leak, the owner or operator shall transfer the hazardous waste from this container to a container that is in good condition or manage the waste in some other way that complies with the requirements of this chapter.

NR 664.0175(2)(b)(b) The base shall be sloped or the containment system shall be otherwise designed and operated to drain and remove liquids resulting from leaks, spills or precipitation, unless the containers are elevated or are otherwise protected from contact with accumulated liquids. NR 664.0175(2)(c)(c) The containment system shall have sufficient capacity to contain 10% of the volume of containers or the volume of the largest container, whichever is greater. Containers that do not contain free liquids need not be considered in this determination. NR 664.0175(2)(d)(d) Run-on into the containment system shall be prevented unless the collection system has sufficient excess capacity in addition to that required in par. (c) to contain any run-on which might enter the system. NR 664.0175(2)(e)(e) Spilled or leaked waste and accumulated precipitation shall be removed from the sump or collection area in as timely a manner as is necessary to prevent overflow of the collection system. NR 664.0175 NoteNote: If the collected material is a hazardous waste under ch. NR 661, it shall be managed as a hazardous waste in accordance with all applicable requirements of chs. NR 662 to 666.
