land"' includes a discharge or release to air that is directly and
immediately deposited into water or onto, land.
{*'},(d) Except as provided in paragraphs f5}(el and f6}Ltj,
"discharge or release into, water or onto or into land" includes
the direct or indirect transfer by any person within the meaning
of Health and Safety Code Section 2524'9.11 (a) for the purpose of'f
discharging or releasing the chemical to land or water in a
manner which, if committed by the transferor,, would violate
Health and Safety Code Section 25249.5.
f5*e "'Discharge or release into water or onto or into
land"' does not include the sale, exchange or other transfer of a,
chemical to: a solid waste disposal facility as defined in:
Sections 6167'14 and 667'19: of the Government Code, or a hazardous
waste facility as defined in Health and Safety Code 25117.1
provided that the disposal to such facility complies with all

of the definitions in these two statutes, this means that an
employee is a person who performs services for remuneration under
any appointment or contract of hire or apprenticeship, express or
implied,, oral or written, whether lawfully or unlawfully
employed.
In computing whether a person employs ten or fewer employees
in his business, all full-time and part-time employees on the
date on which the discharcie, release or exposure occurs must be
counted. Thus, the prohibitions on discharge or release and'
exposures to certain chemicals will apply to any person who! has
'\
ten or more full-time or part-time employees on the date in
question.
