When an owner or operator of a cement kiln, lightweight
aggregate kiln, solid fuel boiler, liquid fuel boiler, or hydrochloric acid
production furnace becomes subject to hazardous waste permit requirements after
February 16, 2009, or when an owner or operator
of an existing cement kiln, lightweight aggregate kiln, solid fuel boiler,
liquid fuel boiler, or hydrochloric acid production furnace demonstrates
compliance with the air emission standards and limitations in 40 CFR Part 63
subpart EEE [i.e., by conducting a comprehensive performance test and
submitting a notification of compliance under
40 CFR
63.1207(j) and 40 CFR
63.1210(d) documenting compliance with all applicable requirements of 40 CFR
Part 63 subpart EEE], this rule does not apply. This rule does apply, however,
if the director determines that certain provisions are necessary to ensure
compliance with paragraphs (E)(1) and (E)(2)(c) of rule
3745-266-102
of the Administrative Code if the owner or operator elects to comply with
paragraph (A)(1)(a) of rule
3745-50-235
of the Administrative Code to minimize emissions of toxic compounds from
startup, shutdown, and malfunction events;
, or if the facility
is an area source and the owner or operator elects to comply with the rules
3745-266-105,
3745-266-106,
and
3745-266-107
of the Administrative Code standards and associated requirements for
particulate matter, hydrogen chloride and chlorine gas, and non-mercury metals;
or if the director determines that certain provisions apply, on a case-by-case
basis, for purposes of
to collect information collection in accordance with paragraphs (A)(5),
(D)(6), (H), and (I) to (I)(2) of rule
3745-50-40
of the Administrative Code and paragraphs (D)(3)(b) and (D)(4) (a)(v) of rule
3745-50-51
of the Administrative Code.
(A)
General. Owners and operators of new boilers and industrial furnaces (those not
operating under the standards of rule
3745-266-103
of the Administrative Code) are subject to paragraphs (B) to (F) of this rule.
Boilers and industrial furnaces operating under the standards of rule
3745-266-103
of the Administrative Code are subject to paragraph (G) of this rule.
(B) Permit operating periods for new boilers
and industrial furnaces. A permit for a new boiler or industrial furnace shall
specify appropriate conditions for the following operating periods:
(1) Pretrial burn period. For the period
beginning with initial introduction of hazardous waste and ending with
initiation of the trial burn, and only for the minimum time required to bring
the boiler or industrial furnace to a point of operational readiness to conduct
a trial burn, not to exceed seven hundred twenty hours operating time when
burning hazardous waste, the director shall establish in the pretrial burn
period of the permit conditions, including but not limited to, allowable
hazardous waste feed rates and operating conditions. The director may extend
the duration of this operational period once, for up to seven hundred twenty
additional hours, at the request of the applicant when good cause is shown. The
permit may be modified to reflect the extension according to rule
3745-50-51
of the Administrative Code.
(a) Applicants
shall submit a statement, with "Part B" of the permit application, that
suggests the conditions necessary to operate in compliance with the standards
of rules
3745-266-104

statement should include
, at a
minimum, restrictions on the applicable operating requirements
identified in paragraph (E) of rule
3745-266-102
of the Administrative Code.
(b)
Ohio EPA will review this statement and any other relevant information
submitted with "Part B" of the permit application and specify requirements for
this period sufficient to meet the performance standards of rules
3745-266-104
to
3745-266-107
of the Administrative Code based on
its
engineering judgment.
(2) Trial burn period. For the duration of
the trial burn, the director shall establish conditions in the permit for the
purposes of determining feasibility of compliance with the performance
standards of rules
3745-266-104
to
3745-266-107
of the Administrative Code and
determining
adequate operating conditions under paragraph (E) of rule
3745-266-102
of the Administrative Code. Applicants shall propose a trial burn plan,
prepared under paragraph (C) of this rule, to be submitted with "Part B" of the
permit application.
(3) Post-trial
burn period.
(a) For the period immediately
following
after completion of the trial burn, and only for the
minimum period sufficient to allow sample analysis, data computation, and
submittal of the trial burn results by the applicant, and review of the trial
burn results and modification of the facility permit by the director to reflect
the trial burn results, Ohio EPA will establish the operating requirements most
likely to ensure compliance with the performance standards of rules
3745-266-104
to
3745-266-107
of the Administrative Code based on
its
engineering judgment.
(b)
Applicants shall submit a statement, with "Part B" of the application
, that identifies the conditions necessary to
operate during this period in compliance with the performance standards of
rules
3745-266-104

This
At a minimum, this statement should include
, at a minimum, restrictions on the operating
requirements provided by paragraph (E) of rule
3745-266-102
of the Administrative Code.
(c)
Ohio EPA will review this statement and any other relevant information
submitted with "Part B" of the permit application and specify requirements for
this period sufficient to meet the performance standards of rules
3745-266-104
to
3745-266-107
of the Administrative Code based on
its
engineering judgment.
(4) Final permit period. For the final period
of operation, the director will develop operating requirements in conformance
with paragraph (E) of rule 3745-266-102 of the Administrative Code that reflect
conditions in the trial burn plan and are likely to ensure compliance with the
performance standards of rules
3745-266-104
to
3745-266-107
of the Administrative Code. Based on the trial burn results, the director shall
make any necessary modifications to the operating requirements to ensure
compliance with the performance standards. The permit modification shall
proceed according to rule 3745-50-51 of the Administrative Code.
(C) Requirements for trial burn
plans. The trial burn plan shall include the following information. The
director, in reviewing the trial burn plan, shall evaluate the sufficiency of

the hazardous waste. The constituents excluded from analysis shall be
identified and the basis for this exclusion explained. The waste analysis shall
rely on appropriate analytical techniques.

to
3745-266-107
of the Administrative Code.
(7) A
description of, and planned operating conditions for, any emission control
equipment that will be used.

paragraphs
paragraph (C)
to
(C)(9) of this rule and the criteria in paragraph (B) (2) of this
rule.
(D) Trial burn
procedures.
(1) A trial burn shall be
conducted to demonstrate conformance with the standards of rules
3745-266-104

by paragraph (E) of rule
3745-266-102
of the Administrative Code as necessary to meet those performance
standards.
(G) Permit by
rule boilers and industrial furnaces. For the purpose of determining
feasibility of compliance with the performance standards of rules
3745-266-104

, and
a schedule of the activities that are required prior to permit issuance,
including the anticipated time schedule for Ohio EPA approval of the plan and
the time periods during which the trial burn would be conducted. Applicants who
submit a trial burn plan and receive approval before submittal of the "Part B"
permit application shall complete the trial burn and submit the results
specified in paragraph (F) of this rule with the "Part B" permit application.
If completion of this process conflicts with the date set for submittal of the
"Part B" application, the applicant shall contact the director to establish a
later date for submittal of the "Part B" application or the trial burn results.
If the applicant submits a trial burn plan with "Part B" of the permit
