Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 9, September 20, 2024
A.
Before an owner or operator treats, stores, or disposes of any hazardous wastes
or nonhazardous wastes, if applicable, under LAC 33:V.4383.D, he must obtain a
detailed chemical and physical analysis of a representative sample of the
wastes. At a minimum, the analysis must contain all the information which must
be known to treat, store, or dispose of the waste in accordance with LAC
33:V.Chapters 22 and 43.
B. The
analysis may include data developed under LAC 33:V.Chapters 1, 31, 41, 49 and
existing published or documented data about the hazardous waste or about waste
generated from similar processes.
COMMENT: For example, the facility's records of analyses
performed on the waste before the effective date of these regulations or
studies conducted on hazardous waste generated from processes similar to that
which generated the waste to be managed at the facility may be included in the
data base required to comply with LAC 33:V.4313.A. The owner or operator of an
off-site facility may arrange for the generator of the hazardous waste to
supply part of the information required by LAC 33:V.4313.A, except as otherwise
specified in LAC 33:V.2247.A and G. If the generator does not supply the
information and the owner or operator chooses to accept a hazardous waste, the
owner or operator is responsible for obtaining the information required to
comply with this Section.
C. The analysis must be repeated as necessary
to ensure that it is accurate and up-to-date. At a minimum, the analysis must
be repeated:
1. when the owner or operator is
notified or has reason to believe that the process or operation generating the
hazardous wastes or nonhazardous wastes, if applicable, under LAC 33:V.4383.D
has changed; and
2. for off-site
facilities, when the results of the inspection required in LAC 33:V.4313.D
indicate that the hazardous waste received at the facility does not match the
waste designated on the accompanying manifest or shipping paper.
D. The owner or operator of an
off-site facility must inspect and, if necessary, analyze each hazardous waste
movement received at the facility to determine whether it matches the identity
of the waste specified on the accompanying manifest or shipping
paper.
E. The owner or operator
must develop and follow a written waste analysis plan which describes the
procedures which he will carry out to comply with LAC 33:V.4313.A-D. He must
keep this plan at the facility. At a minimum, the plan must specify:
1. the parameters for which each hazardous
waste or nonhazardous waste, if applicable, under LAC 33:V.4383.D will be
analyzed and the rationale for the selection of these parameters (i.e., how
analysis for these parameters will provide sufficient information on the
waste's properties to comply with LAC 33:V.4313.A-D;
2. the test methods which will be used to
test for these parameters;
3. the
sampling method which will be used to obtain a representative sample of the
waste to be analyzed. A representative sample may be obtained using either:
a. one of the sampling methods described in
LAC 33:V.4999.Appendix D; or
b. an
equivalent sampling method;
[NOTE: See LAC 33:V.105.H for related
discussion.]
4.
the frequency with which the initial analysis of the waste will be reviewed or
repeated to ensure that the analysis is accurate and up-to-date;
5. for off-site facilities, the waste
analyses that hazardous waste generators have agreed to supply;
6. where applicable, the methods that will be
used to meet the additional waste analysis requirements for specific waste
management methods as specified in LAC 33:V.2245, 2247, 4445, 4453, 4467, 4481,
4507, 4515, 4527, 4539, 4557, 4585, and 4727;
7. for surface impoundments exempted from
land disposal restrictions under LAC 33:V.2237.A, the procedures and schedule
for:
a. the sampling of impoundment
contents;
b. the analysis of test
data; and
c. the annual removal of
residues which are not delisted under LAC 33:V.105.M or which exhibit a
characteristic of hazardous waste and either:
i. do not meet applicable treatment standards
of LAC 33:V.Chapter 22.Subchapter B; or
ii. where no treatment standards have been
established:
(a). such residues are prohibited
from land disposal under LAC 33:V.2213 or RCRA Section 3004(d); or
(b). such residues are prohibited from land
disposal under LAC 33:V.Chapter 22; and
8. for owners and operators
seeking an exemption to the air emission standards of Subchapter V of this
Chapter in accordance with LAC 33:V.4725:
a.
if direct measurement is used for the waste determination, the procedures and
schedules for waste sampling and analysis, and the results of the analysis of
test data to verify the exemption; and
b. if knowledge of the waste is used for the
waste determination, any information prepared by the facility owner or operator
or by the generator of the hazardous waste, if the waste is received from
off-site, that is used as the basis for knowledge of the waste.
F. For off-site
facilities, the waste analysis plan required in LAC 33:V.4313.E must also
specify the procedures which will be used to inspect and, if necessary, analyze
each movement of hazardous waste received at the facility to ensure that it
matches the identity of the waste designated on the accompanying manifest or
shipping paper. At a minimum, the plan must describe:
1. the procedures which will be used to
determine the identity of each movement of waste managed at the
facility;
2. the sampling method
which will be used to obtain a representative sample of the waste to be
identified, if the identification method includes sampling; and
3. the procedures that the owner or operator
of an off-site landfill receiving containerized hazardous waste will use to
determine whether a hazardous waste generator or treater has added a
biodegradable sorbent to the waste in the container.
