Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
(a)
				  Applicability. The requirements of this section apply to all applications
				  seeking RCRA permits for hazardous waste management units.
(b) For facilities applying for or operating
				  under RCRA permits, the Director may assess the need, on a case-by-case basis,
				  for an information repository. When assessing the need for an information
				  repository, the Director shall consider a variety of factors, including: the
				  level of public interest; the type of facility; the presence of an existing
				  repository; and the proximity to the nearest copy of the administrative record.
				  If the Director determines, at any time after submittal of a permit
				  application, that there is a need for a repository, then the Director shall
				  notify the facility that it must establish and maintain an information
				  repository. (See section
				  66270.30(m) for
				  similar provisions relating to the information repository during the life of a
				  permit).
(c) The information
				  repository shall contain all documents, reports, data, and information deemed
				  necessary by the Director to fulfill the purposes for which the repository is
				  established. The Director shall have the discretion to limit the contents of
				  the repository.
(d) The information
				  repository shall be located and maintained at a site chosen by the facility. If
				  the Director finds the site unsuitable for the purposes and persons for which
				  it was established, due to problems with the location, hours of availability,
				  access, or other relevant considerations, then the Director shall specify a
				  more appropriate site.
(e) The
				  Director shall specify requirements for informing the public about the
				  information repository. At a minimum, the Director shall require the facility
				  to provide a written notice about the information repository to all individuals
				  on the facility mailing list.
(f)
				  The facility owner/operator shall be responsible for maintaining and updating
				  the repository with appropriate information throughout a time period specified
				  by the Director. The Director may close the repository at his or her
				  discretion, based on the factors in subsection (b) of this section.
