If someone wants to use a battery technology this law covers in a new way, or in a new product, they can ask the EPA for an exemption. The EPA may grant it if there are reasonable safeguards against the battery or product ending up burned, composted, or dumped in a regular landfill.

If a person petitions for a new use of a battery technology covered by this subchapter — or for using a battery covered by this subchapter in a new product — the Administrator may exempt that new use or new product from this subchapter's rules. The Administrator can do this on the condition, if appropriate, that reasonable safeguards exist to make sure the resulting battery or product (without an easily removable battery) won't be thrown into an incinerator, a composting facility, or a landfill — unless that facility is regulated under subtitle C of the Solid Waste Disposal Act.
