(a) Applicability: The standards in this section apply to any solid waste management facility which accepts petroleum-contaminated soils, unless one of the following conditions are met: - (i) The provisions of this section do not apply to the temporary storage and/or treatment of petroleum-contaminated soils at the point of generation if the following standards are met:
- (A) The time of the waste management activity does not exceed 180 days;
- (B) Public access to the solid waste management unit is controlled;
- (C) The solid waste management unit is bermed, lined and covered with an impermeable material which has a nominal thickness of 6-mils. A cover is not required if run-off from the solid waste management unitis controlled and odor problems are not reported;
- (D) The solid waste management unit is posted with a sign which identifies the date of accumulation and the words:
CAUTION
PETROLEUM-CONTAMINATED SOILS
NO SMOKING
- (ii) Upon request by a solid waste management facility operator, the administrator may waive application of the provisions of this section where the administrator finds that the petroleum-contaminated soils are of a limited volume, the management event is likely to be a nonrecurring event, and the operator demonstrates that the management can occur in a manner that is protective of the public health and safety.
(b) Location standards: All facilities which transfer, treat and store petroleum-contaminated soils shall be located in accordance with the following standards, as well as any other applicable facility location standards; - (i) Facilities shall not be located within 100 feet of any occupied dwelling house, school or hospital except with the written consent of the owner or school district board of trustees, as applicable;
- (ii) Facilities shall not be located within 100 feet of a public park or recreation area, except with the written consent of the owner;
- (iii) Facilities shall not be located in an area which is not approved by the governing fire marshall;
- (iv) The administrator may authorize any existing solid waste management facility which does not conform with the location requirements of this subsection to manage petroleum-contaminated soils, provided the operator demonstrates that the facility design and construction, operating procedures, monitoring procedures and closure procedures are protective of human health and the environment;
(c) Design & construction standards: All facilities which transfer, treat and store petroleum-contaminated soils shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the following standards, as well as any other applicable facility design and construction standards: - (i) Solid waste management units shall be constructed in an area of the facility which is physicallyisolated from other areas of the facility which are frequented by the general public;
- (ii) Solid waste management units shall be designed and constructed to prevent the migration of contaminants to other soils, ground water and surface water;
(d) Operating standards: All facilities which transfer, treat and store petroleum-contaminated soils shall be operated in accordance with the following standards, as well as any other applicable facility operating standards: - (i) Petroleum-contaminated soils shall be managed using procedures approved by the administrator;
- (ii) Petroleum-contaminated soils shall be managed to meet objectives approved by the administrator;
- (iii) Waste management activities shall be evaluated on a regular basis using administrator-approved procedures to evaluate progress toward and attainment of petroleum-contaminated soil management objectives;
- (iv) The following records shall be marked with the appropriate date and time and maintained at the facility or an approved alternative location and available for inspection and copying as specified by Chapter 1, Section 1(g):
- (A) Records of the specific locations at which specific sources of petroleum- contaminated soils are managed;
- (B) Records of the any waste management activities which may, depending on the technology, include adjustment of microbial population density, soil pH, moisture content, soil temperature, nutrient concentrations and soil texture;
- (C) Copies of any analytical testing done to evaluate progress toward or attainment of petroleum-contaminated soil management objectives;
