A New York facility generates 0.5 kg of acute hazardous waste and 900 kg of non-acute hazardous waste in one month. Under NYSDEC's counting-rules guidance, why would this facility be classified as an LQG rather than an SQG that month?
A. Because 900 kg alone already exceeds the 1,000 kg LQG non-acute threshold
B. Because generating any acute hazardous waste automatically triggers LQG status regardless of quantity
C. Because it would not be an LQG; 900 kg of non-acute waste keeps it at SQG status under New York's thresholds
D. Because New York requires LQG status whenever both acute and non-acute waste are generated in the same month
