70-2.4 Transfer of regulated medical waste for off-site treatment. (a) Generators of regulated medical waste shall transfer such waste for off-site treatment only to a regulated medical waste transporter permitted by the Department of Environmental Conservation; provided, however, that a generator of under fifty (50) pounds of regulated medical waste per month registered with the Department of Environmental Conservation pursuant to 6 NYCRR Part 364 may transport its own waste for off-site treatment.

(c) All solid waste transported in a load containing regulated medical waste shall be treated as regulated medical waste, unless the regulated medical waste is separately contained in a secondary container meeting the requirements of section 70-2.2(h) of this Subpart or is otherwise kept separate from the solid waste by leak-proof barriers.
