N.Y. Envtl. Conserv. Law § 27-1504 — Regulated medical waste tracking program is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

§ 27-1504. Regulated medical waste tracking program.

1. The commissioner shall promulgate new regulations or amend existing regulations establishing a program for the tracking of the regulated medical waste which is generated in this state. Such regulations shall not be subject to the requirements of subdivision 2 of section 3-0301 of this chapter.

2. Such program shall:

a. Provide for tracking of the transportation of the waste from the generator to the disposal facility, except that waste that is treated need not be tracked after treatment;

c. Use a uniform form for tracking provided that different forms may be required for generators of differing quantities of medical waste.
