How does an eligible academic entity notify that it will have its laboratories opt into Subpart K?
An eligible academic entity must submit a Site Identification Form (Form 8700-12) to the authorized State or Region for each EPA Identification Number (or site, in the absence of an EPA Identification Number) that is opting into Subpart K (see 40 CFR 262.203). EPA has revised the Site Identification Form to include checkboxes for an eligible academic entity to indicate what type of entity it is (i.e., college or university, or teaching hospital or non-profit research institute that is owned by or has a formal written affiliation agreement with a college or university) and that it is opting into Subpart K.
