Section R315-15-7 - Standards for Used Oil Fuel Marketers
Universal Citation: UT Admin Code R 315-15-7
Current through Bulletin 2024-06, March 15, 2024
7.1 APPLICABILITY
(a) Any person who conducts either of the
following activities is a used oil fuel marketer and is subject to the
requirements of R315-15-7 and R315-15-13.7:
(1) Directs a shipment of off-specification
used oil from their facility to a used oil burner; or
(2) First determines and claims that used oil
that is to be burned for energy recovery meets the used oil fuel specifications
set forth in R315-15-1.2.
(b) The following persons are not used oil
fuel marketers subject to R315-15-7:
(1) Used
oil generators, and transporters who transport used oil received only from
generators, unless the generator or transporter directs a shipment of
off-specification used oil from their facility to a used oil burner. However,
processors/re-refiners who burn some used oil fuel for purposes of processing
are considered to be burning incidentally to processing. Thus, generators and
transporters who direct shipments of off-specification used oil to
processors/re-refiners who incidentally burn used oil are not marketers subject
to R315-15-7;
(2) Persons who
direct shipments of on-specification used oil and who are not the first person
to claim the oil meets the used oil fuel specifications of
R315-15-1.2.
(c) Any
person subject to the requirements of R315-15-7 shall also comply with one of
the following:
(1)R315-15-2
- Standards for Used Oil Generators;
(2)R315-15-4
- Standards for Used Oil Transporters and Transfer Facilities;
(3)R315-15-5
- Standards for Used Oil Processors and Re-refiners; or
(4)R315-15-6
- Standards for Used Oil Burners who Burn Off-Specification Used Oil for Energy
Recovery.
(d) A person
may not act as a used oil fuel marketer without receiving a registration number
and a used oil handler certificate, both issued by the Director as required by
R315-15-13.7 and R315-15-13.8.
7.2 PROHIBITIONS
A used oil fuel marketer may initiate a
shipment of off-specification used oil only to a used oil burner who:
(a) Has an EPA identification number;
and
(b) Burns the used oil in an
industrial furnace or boiler identified in
R315-15-6.2(a).
7.3 ON-SPECIFICATION USED OIL FUEL
(a) Analysis of used oil fuel. A used oil
fuel marketer who is a used oil generator, transporter, transfer facility,
processor/re-refiner, or burner may determine that used oil that is to be
burned for energy recovery meets the fuel specifications of R315-15-1.2 and the
PCB requirements of
R315-15-18
by performing analyses or obtaining copies of analyses or other information
approved by the Director documenting that the used oil fuel meets the
specifications. Used oil is not considered to be on-specification until it has
been certified as such by a registered used oil fuel marketer in accordance
with the used oil fuel marketer's analysis plan, approved by the
Director.
(b) Record retention. A
generator, transporter, transfer facility, processor/re-refiner, or burner who
first certifies that used oil that is to be burned for energy recovery meets
the specifications for used oil fuel under R315-15-1.2 and the PCB requirements
of
R315-15-18
shall keep copies of analyses of the used oil, or other information used to
make the determination, for three years.
7.4 NOTIFICATION
(a) Identification numbers. A used oil fuel
marketer subject to the requirements of R315-15-7 who has not previously

identification number may obtain one by notifying the Director of their used
oil activity by submitting either:

shall include the following information:
(i)

telephone number for the marketer point of contact; and
(v) Type of used oil activity, e.g.,
generator directing shipments of off-specification used oil to a
burner.
7.5 TRACKING
(a) Off-specification used oil delivery. Any
used oil marketer who directs a shipment of off-specification used oil to a
burner shall keep a record of each shipment of used oil to a used oil burner.

(c) Record retention. The records described
in R315-15-7.5(a) and (b) shall be maintained for at least three
years.
7.6 NOTICES
(a) Certification. Before a used oil
generator, transporter, transfer facility, or processor/re-refiner directs the
first shipment of off-specification used oil fuel to a burner, he shall obtain
a one-time written and signed notice from the burner certifying that:
(1) The burner has notified the Director
stating the location and general description of used oil management activities;
and
(2) The burner has obtained an
EPA identification number and, if the off-specification used oil is burned in
