(a) This section summarizes the preferred storage and disposal practices for some common municipal facility wastes. For many wastes, reusing or recycling is the most cost effective means to prevent pollution.

(4) Waste metal is collected for delivery to a scrap metal dealer.
(5) Empty drums stored outdoors are sealed to be watertight.
(6) Hazardous materials or wastes are stored in accordance with the Hazardous Materials Management Plan for the facility and are kept in a covered area or in a locked area.
(7) Waste oil, antifreeze, spent solvents, and other liquids from vehicle maintenance activities are recycled.
