Current through June, 2024
(a)
					 This section applies to each closed-vent system and control device installed
					 and operated by the remanufacturer or other person who stores or treats the
					 hazardous secondary material to control air emissions in accordance with
					 standards of this subpart.
(b) The
					 closed-vent system shall meet the following requirements:
(1) The closed-vent system shall route the
					 gases, vapors, and fumes emitted from the hazardous secondary material in the
					 hazardous secondary material management unit to a control device that meets the
					 requirements specified in paragraph (c) of this section.
(2) The closed-vent system shall be designed
					 and operated in accordance with the requirements specified in §
					 261.1033(k) of this part.
(3) In
					 the case when the closed-vent system includes bypass devices that could be used
					 to divert the gas or vapor stream to the atmosphere before entering the control
					 device, each bypass device shall be equipped with either a flow indicator as
					 specified in paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this section or a seal or locking device as
					 specified in paragraph (b)(3)(ii) of this section. For the purpose of complying
					 with this paragraph, low leg drains, high point bleeds, analyzer vents,
					 open-ended valves or lines, spring loaded pressure relief valves, and other
					 fittings used for safety purposes are not considered to be bypass devices.
(i) If a flow indicator is used to comply
					 with paragraph (b)(3) of this section, the indicator shall be installed at the
					 inlet to the bypass line used to divert gases and vapors from the closed-vent
					 system to the atmosphere at a point upstream of the control device inlet. For
					 this paragraph, a flow indicator means a device which indicates the presence of
					 either gas or vapor flow in the bypass line.
(ii) If a seal or locking device is used to
					 comply with paragraph (b)(3) of this section, the device shall be placed on the
					 mechanism by which the bypass device position is controlled (e.g., valve
					 handle, damper lever) when the bypass device is in the closed position such
					 that the bypass device cannot be opened without breaking the seal or removing
					 the lock. Examples of such devices include, but are not limited to, a car-seal
					 or a lock-and-key configuration valve. The remanufacturer or other person that
					 stores or treats the hazardous secondary material shall visually inspect the
					 seal or closure mechanism at least once every month to verify that the bypass
					 mechanism is maintained in the closed position.
(4) The closed-vent system shall be inspected
					 and monitored by the remanufacturer or other person that stores or treats the
					 hazardous secondary material in accordance with the procedure specified in
					 § 261.1033(l).
