Part 7045.0458 - WASTE ANALYSIS REQUIREMENTS
Universal Citation: MN Rules 7045.0458
Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 13, September 23, 2024
Subpart 1. Waste analysis.
Waste analysis procedures are listed in items A to D.
A. Before an owner or operator treats,
stores, or disposes of any hazardous waste, or nonhazardous waste if applicable
under part
7045.0488, subpart 2a, the owner
or operator shall obtain a detailed chemical and physical analysis of a
representative sample of the waste. This analysis must contain all the
information which must be known in order to treat, store, or dispose of the
waste in accordance with the requirements of parts
7045.0450 to
7045.0551 and
7045.1390, or with the conditions
of a permit issued under the agency's permitting procedures.
B. The analysis may include data developed
under parts
7045.0102 to
7045.0155 and existing published
or documented data on the hazardous waste or on hazardous waste generated from
similar processes, including data obtained from the generator.
C. The analysis must be repeated as necessary
to ensure that it is accurate and up-to-date. The analysis must be repeated at
the following times:
(1) when the owner or
operator is notified, or has reason to believe, that the process or operation
generating the hazardous waste, or nonhazardous waste if applicable under part
7045.0488, subpart 2a, has
changed; and
(2) for off-site
facilities, when the results of the inspection required in item 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 shall 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.
Subp. 2. Waste analysis plan.
The owner or operator shall develop and follow a written waste analysis plan which describes the procedures that will be used to comply with subpart 1. The owner or operator shall keep this plan at the facility. The plan must specify:
A. the parameters for which each hazardous
waste, or nonhazardous waste if applicable under part
7045.0488, subpart 2a, will be
analyzed and the rationale for the selection of these parameters;
B. the test methods which will be used to
test for these parameters;
C. 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:
(1) one of the sampling methods described in
Code of Federal Regulations, title 40, part 261, appendix I, as amended;
or
(2) an equivalent sampling
method as approved by the commissioner;
D. 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;
E. for
off-site facilities, the waste analyses that hazardous waste generators have
agreed to supply;
F. where
applicable, the methods that will be used to meet the additional waste analysis
requirements for specific waste management methods as specified in parts
7045.0456;
7045.0538, subpart 10; 7045.0542,
subpart
2; and Code of Federal
Regulations, title 40, section 268.7, as incorporated in part
7045.1390; and the process vent,
equipment leak, and tank, surface impoundment, and container test methods and
procedures in Code of Federal Regulations, title 40, sections 264.1034(d),
264.1063(d), as amended, and section 264.1083, as incorporated in part
7045.0540;
G. for off-site facilities, the waste
analysis plan must also specify the procedures that 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. The plan must describe:
(1) the procedures that will be used to
determine the identity of each movement of waste managed at the
facility;
(2) the sampling method
that will be used to obtain a representative sample of the waste to be
identified, if the identification method includes sampling. The waste analysis
plan must be submitted with the permit application; and
(3) the procedure 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;
H. for surface impoundments exempted from the
land disposal restrictions under Code of Federal Regulations, title 40, section
268.4, as incorporated in part
7045.1390, the procedures and
schedules for:
(1) the sampling of
impoundment contents;
(2) the
analysis of test data; and
(3) the
annual removal of residues which are not delisted under part
7045.0075, subpart
2, or which exhibit a
characteristic of hazardous waste under part
7045.0131, and either do not meet
the treatment standards of Code of Federal Regulations, title 40, sections
268.40 to 268.42, as incorporated in part
7045.1390, or, where no treatment
standards have been established, such residues are prohibited from land
disposal under Code of Federal Regulations, title 40, sections 268.30 to
268.35, as incorporated in part
7045.1390, or RCRA section
3004(d); and
I. for
owners and operators seeking an exemption to the air emission standards of part
7045.0540 in accordance with Code
of Federal Regulations, title 40, section 264.1082, as incorporated in part
7045.0540:
(1) 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
(2) 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.
