The co-generators may decide among them which party or parties will fulfill the requirements of this subchapter. NR 679.20(1)(c)(c) Diesel fuel. Mixtures of used oil and diesel fuel mixed by the generator of the used oil for use in the generator’s own vehicles are not regulated under this chapter once the used oil and diesel fuel have been mixed. Prior to mixing, the used oil fuel is regulated under this subchapter. NR 679.20(1)(d)(d) Farmers. Farmers who generate an average of 25 gallons per month or less of used oil from vehicles or machinery used on the farm in a calendar year are not regulated under this chapter.

Under the rebuttable presumption for used oil of s. NR 679.10 (2) (a) 2., used oil containing greater than or equal to 1,000 ppm total halogens is presumed to be a hazardous waste and thus shall be managed as hazardous waste and not as used oil unless the presumption is rebutted.
