615(3) 616The following wastes or activities shall be regulated pursuant to this act in the following manner:632(a) 633Dredged material that is generated as part of a project permitted under part IV of chapter 373 or chapter 161, or that is authorized to be removed from sovereign submerged lands under chapter 253, shall be managed in accordance with the conditions of that permit or authorization unless the dredged material is regulated as hazardous waste pursuant to this part. If the dredged material contains hazardous substances, the department may further limit or restrict the disposal, sale, or use of the dredged material and may specify such other conditions relative to this material as are reasonably necessary to protect the public from the potential hazards. However, this paragraph does not require the routine testing of dredge material for hazardous substances unless there is a reasonable expectation that such substances will be present.
765(b) 766Hazardous wastes that are contained in artificial recharge waters or other waters intentionally introduced into any underground formation and that are permitted pursuant to s. 791373.106 792shall also be handled in compliance with the requirements and standards for disposal, storage, and treatment of hazardous waste under this act. 814(c) 815Solid waste or hazardous waste facilities that are operated as a part of the normal operation of a power generating facility and which are licensed by certification pursuant to the Florida Electrical Power Plant Siting Act, ss. 852403.501853-854403.518, 855shall undergo such certification subject to the substantive provisions of this act. 867(d) 868Biomedical waste and biological waste shall be disposed of only as authorized by the department.
