Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 38, September 20, 2024
A used oil burner is subject to all applicable Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasures (federal 40 CFR 112) in addition to the requirements of this Subpart G. A used oil burner is also subject to the Underground Storage Tank (35 Ill. Adm. Code 731) standards for used oil stored in underground tanks whether or not the used oil exhibits any characteristics of hazardous waste, in addition to the requirements of this Subpart G.
a) Storage Units. A used oil burner may not store used oil in units other than tanks, containers, or units subject to regulation under 35 Ill. Adm. Code 724 or 725.
b) Condition of Units. The following must be true of containers and aboveground tanks used to store used oil at a burner facility:
c) Secondary Containment for Containers. Containers used to store used oil at a burner facility must be equipped with a secondary containment system.
d) Secondary Containment for Existing Aboveground Tanks. Existing aboveground tanks used to store used oil at burner facilities must be equipped with a secondary containment system.
e) Secondary Containment for New Aboveground Tanks. A new aboveground tank used to store used oil at burner facilities must be equipped with a secondary containment system.

g) Response to Releases. Upon detection of a release of used oil to the environment that is not subject to the federal requirements of subpart F of 40 CFR 280 and which has occurred after October 4, 1996, a burner must perform the following cleanup steps:
BOARD NOTE: Corresponding 40 CFR 279.64(g) applies to releases that "occurred after the effective date of the authorized used oil program for the State in which the release is located". The Board adopted the used oil standards in docket R93-4 at 17 Ill. Reg. 20954, effective November 22, 1993. USEPA approved the Illinois standards at 61 Fed. Reg. 40521 (Aug. 5, 1996), effective October 4, 1996. The Board has interpreted "the effective date of the authorized used oil program" to mean the October 4, 1996 date of federal authorization of the Illinois program, and we substituted that date for the federal effective date language. Had USEPA written something like "the effective date of the used oil program in the authorized State in which the release is located", the Board would have used the November 22, 1993 effective date of the Illinois used oil standards.
