Sec. 264.3  Relationship to interim status standards.

    A facility owner or operator who has fully complied with the 
requirements for interim status--as defined in section 3005(e) of RCRA 
and regulations under Sec. 270.70 of this chapter--must comply with the 
regulations specified in part 265 of this chapter in lieu of the 
regulations in this part, until final administrative disposition of his 
permit application is made, except as provided under 40 CFR part 264 
subpart S.

[Comment: As stated in section 3005(a) of RCRA, after the effective date 
of regulations under that section, i.e., parts 270 and 124 of this 
chapter, the treatment, storage, or disposal of hazardous waste is 
prohibited except in accordance with a permit. Section 3005(e) of RCRA 
provides for the continued operation of an existing facility which meets 
certain conditions until final administrative disposition of the owner's 
or operator's permit application is made.]
