Exemptions & Exceptions to the Rebuttable Presumption

There are different ways to rebut the presumption that a used oil is contaminated enough to be treated as hazardous waste. For example, a used oil handler may rebut the presumption by demonstrating that the halogens in the used oil came from one of the following sources:

Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) from refrigeration units that are destined for reclamation
Household hazardous waste
RCRA empty drums
A material that is not a hazardous waste (for example, saltwater)
PCBs per specifications

In some cases, used oil handlers may also be able to rebut the presumption because of their particular situation.
