The choice of method for determining waste quantities will v ary according to the availability of historical data. Beginning in the first emissions reporting year (2011 or later) and for each year thereafter, use the procedures in paragraph (a)(2)(i) of this section to determine waste stream quantities. These proced ures should also be used for any year prior to the first emissions reporting year for which the data are available. For other historical years, use paragraph (a)(2)(i) of this section, where waste disposal records are available, and use the procedures outl ined in paragraph (a)(2)(ii) of this section when waste disposal records are unavailable, to determine waste stream quantities. Historical disposal quantities deposited ( i.e., prior to the first year in which monitoring begins) should only be determined o nce, as part of the first annual report, and the same values should be used for all subsequent annual reports, supplemented by the next year's data on new waste disposal.Page 6 of 31 (i) Determine the quantity of waste (in metric tons as received, i.e.,

Except as provided below, all terms used in this subpart have the same meaning given in the CAA and subpart A of this part. § 98.468 Definitions.

Construction and demolition (C&D) waste landfill means a solid waste disposal facility subject to the requirements of subparts A or B of part 257 of this chapter that receives construction and demolition waste and does not receive hazardous waste (defined in §261.3 of this chapter) or industrial solid waste (defined in §258.2 of this chapter) or municipal solid waste (defined in §98.6 of this part) other than residential lead

- based paint waste. A C&D wast e landfill typically receives any one or more of the following types of solid wastes: roadwork material, excavated material, demolition waste, construction/renovation waste, and site clearance waste. Design capacity means the maximum amount of solid waste a landfill can accept. For the purposes of this subpart, for landfills that have a permit, the design capacity can be determined in terms of volume or mass in the most recent permit issued by the state, local, or Tribal agency responsible for regulating th e landfill, plus any in

- place waste not accounted for in the most recent permit. If the owner or operator choosesPage 30 of 31 to convert the design capacity from volume to mass to determine its design capacity, the calculation must include a site

specific density. If the design capacity is within 10 percent of the applicability threshold in §98.460(a) and there is a change in the production process that can reasonably be expected to change the site

- specific waste density, the site

- specific waste density must be redeter mined and the design capacity must be recalculated based on the new waste density. Solid waste has the meaning established by the Administrator pursuant to the Solid Waste Disposal Act (42 U.S.C.A. 6901 et seq . ).
Waste stream

**Table TT –**  **1 to Subpart TT —**  **Default DOC and Decay Rate Values for Industrial Waste Landfills**  means industrial solid waste m aterial that is generated by a specific manufacturing process or client. For wastes generated at the facility that includes the industrial waste landfill, a waste stream is the industrial solid waste material generated by a specific processing unit at that facility. For industrial solid wastes that are received from off

- site facilities, a waste stream can be defined as each waste shipment or group of waste shipments received from a single client or group of clients that produce industrial solid wastes with similar waste properties.

(1) Dry climate = precipitation plus recirculated leachate less than 20 inches/year The applicable climate classification is determined based on the annual rainfall plus the recirculated leachate application rate. Recirculated leachate application rate (in inches/year) is the total volume of leachate recirculated from company records or engineering estimates and applied to the landfill divided by the area of the portion of the landfill containing w aste [with appropriate unit conversions].
(2) Moderate climate = precipitation plus recirculated leachate from 20 to 40 inches/year (inclusive) (3) Wet climate = precipitat ion plus recirculated leachate greater than 40 inches/year Alternatively, landfills that use leachate recirculation can elect to use the k value for wet climate rather than calculating the recirculated leachate rate.
