  (c) Wastes which are newly identified or listed under RCRA section 3001 after November 8, 1984, and treated in a surface impoundment that is newly subject to subtitle C of RCRA as a result of the additional identification or listing, may continue to be treated in that surface impoundment, notwithstanding that the waste is otherwise prohibited from land disposal, provided that surface impoundment is in compliance with the requirements of 40 CFR 265.90 through 94, which are adopted by reference, within 12 months after the promulgation of the new listing or characteristic.
