managed shall be included in the contingency plan for the
consolidation site. A single generic description of response actions
may be used for all similar remote sites associated with a single
consolidation site.
   (5) As soon as the generator begins to actively manage the
hazardous waste at the remote site, the generator places the
hazardous waste in a container meeting the requirements of the United

accordance with the regulations adopted by the department regarding
the management by generators of containers used to hold hazardous
waste.
   (6) The containers used to hold the hazardous waste at the remote
site are labeled, in accordance with the regulations adopted by the
department pertaining to labeling requirements for generators, as
soon as the hazardous waste is placed in the container.
   (7) The generator makes a reasonable effort to minimize the
possibility of unknowing or unauthorized entry into the area where
the hazardous waste is held at the remote site. If the remote site is
located within one mile of a residential or commercial area, or is
otherwise readily accessible to the public, the area where hazardous
waste is held at the remote site shall at all times be supervised by
employees or agents of the generator or otherwise secured so as to
prevent unknowing entry and to minimize the possibility for
unauthorized entry.
   (c) If the management of hazardous wastes at a remote site does

department, the generator determines that treatment cannot be
accomplished for all, or part of, the hazardous waste accumulated in
a remediation waste staging area, the generator shall immediately
notify the department and the appropriate local agency, pursuant to
subparagraph (A), that the treatment has been discontinued. The
generator shall then handle and dispose of the hazardous waste in
accordance with paragraph (4) of subdivision (b).
   (C) A generator shall not hold hazardous waste for remediation
waste staging unless the generator can show, through laboratory
testing, bench scale testing, or other documentation, that soil held
for remediation waste staging is potentially treatable. Any fines and

imposed beginning with the 91st day that the hazardous waste was
initially accumulated.
   (3) Once an onsite treatment operation is completed on hazardous
waste held pursuant to paragraph (1), the generator shall inspect the

department a legible copy of the manifest, with some indication that
the generator has not received confirmation of delivery.
   (i) The department may adopt regulations that set forth additional
restrictions and enforceable management standards that protect human
health and the environment and that apply to persons holding
hazardous waste at a transfer facility. A regulation adopted pursuant
to this subdivision shall be considered by the Office of
