Revised Title V Feedstream Analysis Permit Conditions

2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii)( B ) . Waste acceptance procedure. Subject to the exemptions in condition 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii)(F), below, the Permittee shall conduct representative sampling using the methods specified in 40 C.F.R. Part 261, Appendix I, of each shipment of waste

. for mercury, LVM and SVM prior to feeding the waste into any incinerator and shall analyze such samples using appropriate quality assurance/quality control procedures and appropriate test methods that are consistent with SW

- 846. Each shipment of waste will be classified as either “suspect waste” or “non

- suspect waste”. B. I. Suspect waste Suspect waste is a waste stream that may contain or is expected to contain a ny of the MACT metals (i.e., arsenic, beryllium, chromium, lead, cadmium, and/or mercury). A waste stream would be classified as a suspect waste if the profile contains the federal waste code of any of the MACT metals, the chemical composition lists any o f the MACT metals, or process/industry knowledge or generator knowledge of the waste indicates the potential for MACT metals to be present. Prior to feeding the waste to any incinerator, the Permittee will analyze such waste, using appropriate quality ass urance/quality control procedures and appropriate test methods that are consistent with SW

-846, or utilize the following analytical protocol and frequency for suspect waste:
1. The first three (3) shipments received at the facility. Each shipment will be pro cessed using the metals analysis results obtained from each shipment for metals feed calculations. If any metals analysis result is below the reporting limit (i.e., non

- detect), one

- half (1/2) of the reporting limit will be used. For subsequent shipments received, the arithmetic mean plus two (2) standard deviations of the metals concentrations from the first three (3) shipments will be used for the next nine (9) shipments received. 2. Every tenth (10 th ) shipment received after the initial three (3) shipments. The metals analysis results from each tenth (10th ) shipment will be used for metals feed calculations for that shipment. 3. The first (1 st ) shipment following a discrepant metals analysis of that waste stream. A shipment is discrepant for metals if the p rofiled range is exceeded by 100 ppm for a profiled metal concentration of 0

- 500, or if the profiled range is exceeded by 20% for a profiled metal concentration >500 ppm. 4. The first three (3) shipments received at the facility after a generator notifies Veo lia of a change in the waste profile that increases the concentration of the MACT metal(s) in the waste stream.B.II. Non

- suspect waste

Non

- suspect waste is a waste stream that is not expected to contain any of the MACT metals. A waste stream wou ld be classified as a non

- suspect waste if the profile does not contain the federal waste code of any of the MACT metals, the chemical composition does not list any of the MACT metals, and process/industry knowledge and generator knowledge of the waste ind icate that MACT metals are not present. Prior to feeding the waste to any incinerator, the Permittee will analyze such waste, using appropriate quality assurance/quality control procedures and appropriate test methods that are consistent with SW

-846, or utilize the following analytical protocol and frequency for non

- suspect waste:
1. The pre

- acceptance sample or the first (1 st ) shipment received at the facility. If all metals analysis results are below reporting limits (i.e., non

- detect), zero (0) will be u sed for metals feed calculations. If metals analysis indicates the presence of metals (i.e., any metals analysis result is greater than or equal to the reporting limit), the waste will be classified as a suspect waste and metals analysis protocol for suspect waste will be followed for this waste stream. 2. The first (1 st ) shipment received at the facility if the generator notifies Veolia of a change in the waste stream’s chemical composition that would indicate that MACT metals might be present.

2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii )( C ) . Batch sampling procedure. If waste accepted for incineration is batched, treated, blended, mixed, or otherwise altered from its shipped st ate, the Permittee shall sample and analyze such batched, treated, blended, mixed, or otherwise altered waste for mercury, LVM and SVM in its final form as feed for incineration, prior to incineration using appropriate quality assurance/quality control pro cedures and appropriate test methods that are consistent with SW

- 846. In lieu of sampling and analysis, the Permittee may perform a mass balance calculation to determine concentrations in the final batched, treated, blended, mixed, or otherwise altered waste. The calculation must be based on all batched, treated, blended, mixed, or otherwise altered ingredients having been analyzed and the contribution of each ingredient determined pursuant to condition 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii)(E), below. Feedstreams which are exem pt from sampling in accordance with condition 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii)(F) must not can be batched, treated, blend ed, mixed, or otherwise altered. E xamples of these are vitamins, pills, pill bottles, vials, health care products and consumer products . unless H owever, the Permittee samples and analyzes the otherwise exempt feedstream. shall sample and analyze such batched, treated, blended, mixed, or otherwise altered waste for mercury, LVM and SVM in its final form as feed for incineration, prior to incineration us ing appropriate quality assurance/quality control procedures and appropriate test methods that are consistent with SW

-846. In lieu of sampling and analysis, the Permittee may perform a mass balance calculation to determine concentrations in the final batch ed, treated, blended, mixed, or otherwise altered waste. The calculation must be based on all batched, treated, blended, mixed, or otherwisealtered i ngredients and the contribution of each ingredient determined pursuant to condition

2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii)(E), b elow. 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii )(D). Fuel procedure. The Permittee shall document the concentration of mercury, LVM and SVM in any fuel other than natural gas, including used oil, diesel, and alternative fuels, but not including hazardous waste, fed into the incine rators by either (1) obtaining analytical results from each fuel supplier or (2) conducting representative sampling using the methods in 40 C.F.R. Part 261, Appendix I, of each fuel supply and analyzing such samples using appropriate quality assurance/quality control procedures and appropriate test methods. The Permittee shall follow this procedure at least once per year for each fuel supply. 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii )(E) . Treatment of detection limits for metal feedrate calculations. The Permittee shall determine the concentrations of arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, chromium, lead and mercury as set forth below in order to calculate the mass of mercury, LVM and SVM for each waste or fuel fed to each incinerator: I. If the applicable metal is detected at or above the reporting limit for that metal, as defined in condition 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii)(E)(III), in any sampling analysis required by condition 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii), the metal conce ntration shall be equal to the concentration of that metal detected from the associated sampling analysis at or above the reporting limit, as defined in condition 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii)(E)(III), below.
II .If the applicable metal is detected at or above the reporting limit for that metal, as defined in condition 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii)(E)(III), in any sampling analysis required by condition 2.1(D)(4)(d)(2), the metal concentration shall be equal to the reporting limit 1⁄2the reporting limit, as defined in condition 2.1(D) (4)(d)(ii)(E)(III), from the sampling analyses required by condition 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii). III. The reporting limit shall be determined as the lower limit of quantitation as described in Method 6010c of SW

- 846, multiplied by the appropriate extraction and dilu tion factors. All positive sample results must fall within the established linear dynamic range, and nondetects reported at the lower limit of quantitation with appropriate dilution factors applied as specified by Method 6010c of SW

-846. IV. The mass of LVM in each feedstream is the algebraic sum of the mass of arsenic, beryllium and chromium in that feedstream. The mass of SVM in the feedstream is the algebraic sum of the mass of lead and cadmium in that feedstream. 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii )( F ) . Exemptions to the analysis procedures in condition 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii). The following wastes that the Permittee determines do not contain mercury, LVM or SVM, consistent with this condition 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii)(F), shall be exempt from the analysis procedures set forth in con dition 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii): I. Packaged chemicals and debris from laboratories, hospitals, household clean sweeps, or manufacturing facilities, including scintillation vials packed in accordance with Small Quantity ChemicalGuidelines (SQCGs) except those th at are not packaged in numerous small containers or are unknowns

The Permittee’s written determination of exemption from t hese analysis procedures shall describe the information reviewed and the basis for the determination that no mercury, LVM or SVM is present.
VIII .IX. Any waste listed in conditions 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii)(F)(I) through ( VI I ) for which there is insufficient info rmation to allow the Permittee to make a reasonable determination that of the amount of mercury,LVM and SVM are n ot present in the waste shall not be exempt from the analysis procedures in

conditions 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii)(A) through E.
IX

. X. The Permittee may request approval from the Administrator to exempt any waste that is not listed in conditions 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii)(F)(I) through ( VI I ) from the analysis procedures set forth in conditions 2.1(D)(4)(d)(ii)(A) through (E). The Permittee shall describe the in formation reviewed and the basis for the determination that no mercury, LVM or SVM is present in the wastes proposed for exemption. The Permittee shall submit all such wriiten requests to the address in condition 4.2(B). The Administrator shall have 60 14 days from the date of receipt of the written request to either approve the request as submitted by the Permittee or request additional information needed to enable the Administrator to make a decision on the Permittee’s request. If the Administrator do es not respond to the request within 60 14 days of receiving the request and any additional information requested by the Administrator, the Permittee may consider its request to exempt t he specified waste(s ) approved.
