(1) The following wastes generated by fuel burning operations which are regulated by rule 3745-17-10 of the administrative code and which burn as fuel primarily coal: air pollution control wastes, water pollution control wastes, and other wastes with similar characteristics which are approved by the director or his authorized representative.
(2) The following wastes generated from foundry operations: air pollution control dust, wastewater treatment plant sludge, unspent foundry sand, spent foundry sand, and other foundry wastes with similar characteristics which are approved by the director or his authorized representative.
(3) The following wastes generated from pulp and papermaking operations: wastewater treatment plant sludges, lime mud, lime grit, sawdust, wood chips, bark, hydropulper rejects, and other pulp and papermaking wastes with similar characteristics which are approved by the director or his authorized representative.
(4) The following wastes generated from steelmaking operations: air pollution control dust, wastewater treatment plant sludges, dust from steel processing and finishing operations, water softening sludge, flux material, and other steelmaking wastes with similar characteristics which are approved by the director or his authorized representative.

Residual wastes may be disposed in a licensed sanitary landfill facility without performance of the waste characterization and landfill classification specified in rules 3745-27-03 and 3745-27-04 of the administrative code, or in any licensed residual waste landfill facility provided that the class number for such a facility is not greater than the class number necessary for that residual waste as determined by the residual waste characterization and landfill classification in accordance with rules 3745-30-03 and 3745-30-04 of the administrative code.
(C) "Residual waste landfill facility" or "residual waste landfill" is a sanitary landfill facility where one or any combination of residual solid wastes specified in paragraph (b) of this rule are exclusively disposed. Nontoxic fly ash, nontoxic bottom ash, and nontoxic spent foundry sand may also be disposed of at a residual waste landfill facility. Residual waste landfill facilities include four classifications: class i, class ii, class iii, and class iv.
(D) "Spent" as used in spent foundry sand means any material that has been used and as a result of degradation or contamination can no longer serve the purpose for which it was produced without processing.
