shores, river shores, or similar public areas
C6.2.37.4. Wastes from exhumation and any other waste from cemetery areas different
from those in numbers 2, 3, and 4 above
C6.2.37.5. Septic pump-out waste is excluded from the definition of urban waste.
C6.2.38. Used Oil. Any oil or other waste POL product (whether mineral or synthetic) that
has become unsuitable for the use for which it was initially intended. Used oil includes oil
mixtures, oily tank residues, mixtures of oil and water, and emulsions. Used oil (other than used
oil burned for energy recovery) is classified as a hazardous waste and will be managed as such.
C6.2.39. Used Oil Burned for Energy Recovery. Used oil that is burned for energy
recovery is termed "used oil fuel." Used oil fuel includes any fuel produced from used oil by
processing, blending, or other treatment.
C6.2.40. Waste. Any substance, material, or object that the waste generator (producer)
discards, intends to discard, or is required to discard, including material sent for recovery. Waste
is classified according to its origin as either urban (municipal) waste or as special waste, and is
further sub-classified as hazardous waste or as non-hazardous waste. A complete list of waste
streams with the corresponding Waste Code is provided in the USEUCOM Waste List.
C6.2.41. Waste Generation. The act or process of producing waste.
C6.2.42. Waste Generator. A generator is considered to be the entity whose processes or
actions generate waste.
C6.2.43. Waste Loading and Unloading Register. A specific and dedicated log book, kept
at the installation, used to record all waste transfers, which includes all onsite “loading”
operations (i.e., data on waste temporarily stored at the site including waste code, amount and
date of storage) and all “unloading” operations undertaken at the site (i.e. data on waste shipped
off-site for disposal/recovery/recycling, including waste code, amount shipped, date of transport,
and name of waste carrier). Waste collected by the municipality is not required to be recorded
on this waste register.
C6.2.44. Waste Manifest. A specific form used to track the shipment of special waste from
its point of origin to its point of disposal.
C6.2.45. Waste Storage Area (WSA). A permitted area (different than a TWSA) where the
storage of waste (both hazardous and/or non-hazardous) occurs prior to disposal through any
activity listed in Appendix B.2 or recovery activity listed in Appendix B.3. Special waste may
be stored no longer than one year at a WSA unless otherwise specified in the permit. A WSA
site shall be permitted via the Italian Base Commander, in accordance with the procedures
established in Chapter 1 (see C6.3.7.4).
