We've put the complete NYS Environmental Conservation Law,
Title 9 of Article 27, Section 27-0926 in the lower window for
you, but the relevant portions are:
374-4.2 Requirements for the Management of Elemental
Mercury and Dental Amalgam Waste at Dental Facilities
(a) Amalgam Separators
- (1) All dental facility waters likely to come into contact
with dental amalgam waste must be treated prior to
discharge by an amalgam separator which is certified to
ISO 11143 Standards (Dental equipment - Amalgam
separators) as incorporated by reference in subdivision
370.1(e) of this Title. The amalgam separator must achieve
a minimum of 99 percent removal efficiency of dental
amalgam, by weight, in accordance with ISO 11143 test
procedures.
- (2) Amalgam separators in service at dental facilities prior
to the effective date of this Subpart, must be certified,
but only need to achieve a minimum 95 percent removal
efficiency of dental amalgam, by weight, in accordance
with ISO 11143 test procedures.
- (3) For large dental facilities, the amalgam separator must
meet or exceed the applicable ISO 11143 Standards set
forth in paragraph (1) or (2) above, but is not required to
be ISO certified. If such a separator is not ISO certified,
then the minimum removal efficiency certification must be
made by a person or firm licensed to practice
professional engineering in the State of New York.
