Oregon Hazardous Waste Management regulation.

Application rejected because the HMTA's preemption provisions—including the provision granting the Department the authority to make administrative preemption determinations—expressly do not apply to a "mental state...utilized by a State...to enforce a requirement applicable to the transportation of hazardous material," PHMSA lacks authority to act on the application.

84 FR 50882 (9/26/19).
