(5) Management standards necessary for the protection of human health and environmental
quality during the transportation and storage of military munitions determined to be hazardous
waste.
(6) Hazardous waste manifesting requirements during transportation on public or private
right-of-ways on or along the borders of contiguous properties under the control of the same
person.
g. Applicable or Relevant and Appropriate Requirements (ARARs).
(1) OE response actions must comply with all ARARs. Applicable requirements are
cleanup standards, standards of control, and other substantive environmental protection
requirements promulgated under federal or state law that specifically address a hazardous
substance, pollutant, contaminant, response action, location or other circumstance found at a
CERCLA site. Relevant and appropriate requirements are cleanup standards that, while not
"applicable", address situations sufficiently similar to those encountered at a CERCLA site that
their use is well-suited to the particular site.
(2) When selecting the most suitable OE response action, ARARs must be identified and
considered on a site-specific basis. OE response actions will attain ARARs under federal or state
laws to the extent practicable considering the urgency of the situation and the scope of the
removal. For an NTCRA, the district must identify potential ARARs during the Engineering
Evaluation/Cost Analysis (EE/CA) planning process and comply with them whenever possible.
For TCRAs, the deferral of ARARs may be warranted.
