(a) Materials which are not wastes. The following materials are not wastes for the purpose of this chapter:(1) industrial wastewater discharges that are point source discharges subject to regulation under section 402 of the federal Clean Water Act, as amended (33 U.S.C. section 1342). This exclusion applies only to the actual point source discharge. It does not exclude industrial wastewaters while they are being collected, stored or treated before discharge, nor does it exclude sludges that are generated by industrial wastewater treatment;(2) source, special nuclear or by-product material as defined by the federal Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, (42 U.S.C. section 2011 et seq.);(3) spent sulfuric acid used to produce virgin sulfuric acid, unless it is accumulated speculatively as defined in section 66260.10.(4) pulping liquors (e.g., black liquor) that are reclaimed in a pulping liquor recovery furnace and then reused in the pulping process, unless accumulated speculatively as defined in 66260.10.(5) secondary materials that are reclaimed and returned to the original process or processes in which they were generated where they are reused in the production process provided: (A) only tank storage is involved, and the entire process through completion of reclamation is closed by being entirely connected with pipes or other comparable enclosed means of conveyance;(B) reclamation does not involve controlled flame combustion (such as occurs in boilers, industrial furnaces, or incinerators);(C) the materials are never accumulated in such tanks for over twelve months without being reclaimed; and(D) the reclaimed material is not used to produce a fuel, or used to produce products that are used in a manner constituting disposal.(b) Wastes which are not hazardous wastes.

However, these wastes remain subject to Article 9.5 of Chapter 6.5 of the Health and Safety Code if the wastes would otherwise be classified as hazardous wastes pursuant to section 25117 of the Health and Safety Code or pursuant to this division. For purposes of this paragraph, beneficiation of ores and minerals is restricted to the following activities: Crushing; grinding; washing; dissolution; crystallization; filtration; sorting; sizing; drying; sintering; pelletizing; briquetting; calcining to remove water and/or carbon dioxide; roasting; autoclaving, and/or chlorination in preparation for leaching (except where the roasting (and/or autoclaving and/or chlorination)/leaching sequence produces a final or intermediate product that does not undergo further beneficiation or processing); gravity concentration; magnetic separation; electrostatic separation; flotation; ion exchange; solvent extraction; electrowinning; precipitation; amalgamation; and heap, dump, vat, tank, and in situ leaching. For the purpose of this paragraph, solid waste from the processing of ores and minerals includes only the following wastes: 1. Slag from primary copper processing;2.

Slag from primary zinc processing.(B) Waste from the extraction, benefication, and processing of ores and minerals, as those terms are defined in Health and Safety Code section 25143.1, which would otherwise be classified as a non-RCRA hazardous waste pursuant to section 66261.101, is not subject to the requirements of this division or of Chapter 6.5 of the Health and Safety Code. However, these wastes remain subject to Article 9.5 of Chapter 6.5 of the Health and Safety Code if the wastes would otherwise be classified as hazardous wastes pursuant to section 25117 of the Health and Safety Code or to this division.(C) A waste residue derived from co-processing of the mineral processing secondary materials as listed above under paragraph (b)(5)(A) of this section with normal beneficiation raw materials or with normal mineral processing raw materials shall remain excluded as a hazardous waste under paragraph (b) of this section and pursuant to section 25143.1 of the Health and Safety Code if the owner or operator does the following:1. Processes at least 50 percent by weight normal beneficiation raw materials or normal mineral processing raw materials; and,2. Legitimately reclaims the secondary mineral processing materials.(c) hazardous wastes which are exempted from certain regulations. A hazardous waste which is generated in a product or raw material storage tank, a product or raw material transport vehicle or vessel, a product or raw material pipeline, or in a manufacturing process unit or an associated non-waste-treatment-manufacturing unit, is not subject to regulation under this division or to the notification requirements of Health and Safety Code section 25153.6 until it exits the unit in which it was generated, unless the unit is a surface impoundment, or unless the hazardous waste remains in the unit more than 90 days after the unit ceases to be operated for manufacturing, or for storage or transportation of product or raw materials. The exemption in this subsection applies only to the hazardous waste generated in the above-named tanks, not to the tanks themselves. The tanks remain subject to the requirements of chapter 32 if the tank is a hazardous waste pursuant to article 3 of chapter 11 of this division.(d) samples; (1) except as provided in subsections (d)(2) and (4) of this section, a sample of waste or a sample of water, soil, or air, which is collected for the sole purpose of testing to determine its characteristics or composition, is not subject to any requirements of this division or to the notification requirements of Health and Safety Code section 25153.6 when:(A) the sample is being transported to a laboratory for the purpose of testing;
