Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. The secretary's
				  report shall be issued in conjunction with the draft permit decision for
				  commercial hazardous waste treatment, storage, or disposal facilities. The
				  report will assess the impact of the location of the facility on the citizens
				  in the surrounding area, the local infrastructure, economic development, and on
				  the environment. The sources of information for the report include the permit
				  application contents required in LAC 33:V, the Infrastructure Assessment Report
				  prepared by the local governmental subdivision, and other information sources
				  as appropriate.
B. Based upon
				  information supplied in the permit application and other information sources,
				  as appropriate, the department shall assess site suitability. Consideration
				  shall be given to the following:
1. the
				  number and density of existing hazardous waste disposal facilities in an area
				  extending 2 miles from the facility property line;
2. the number and density of solid waste
				  disposal facilities in an area extending 2 miles from the facility property
				  line;
3. the number and density of
				  inactive and abandoned hazardous waste sites in an area extending 2 miles from
				  the facility property line;
4. the
				  number and density of existing industrial facilities that discharge hazardous
				  or toxic substances into the air or water in an area extending 2 miles from the
				  facility property line;
5. the
				  existence of any community health problem in the area that may be aggravated by
				  the operation of a commercial hazardous waste disposal facility;
6. the negative impact of the proposed
				  facility on economic development of the area by adjacent businesses or
				  industries;
7. whether the area is
				  environmentally sensitive (see LAC 33:V.405.B.1.a); and
8. whether the proximity of the facility may
				  pose undue health risks (see LAC 33:V.405.B.1.b).

A. The
					 administrative authority shall not issue a permit before receiving a complete
					 application for a permit except for permits by rule (LAC 33:V.305.D) or
					 emergency permits (LAC 33:V.701). An application for a permit is complete when
					 the administrative authority receives an application form and any supplemental
					 information which are completed to his or her satisfaction. The administrative
					 authority may deny a permit for the active life of a hazardous waste management
					 facility or TSD unit before receiving a complete application for the permit. An
					 application for a permit is complete notwithstanding the failure of the owner
					 or operator to submit the exposure information described in this Section.
1. Any Part II permit application submitted
					 by an owner or operator of a facility that stores, treats, or disposes of
					 hazardous waste in a surface impoundment or a landfill must be accompanied by
					 information, reasonably ascertainable by the owner or operator, on the
					 potential for the public to be exposed to hazardous wastes or hazardous
					 constituents through releases related to the unit. At a minimum, such
					 information must address:
a. reasonably
					 foreseeable potential releases from both normal operations and accidents at the
					 unit, including releases associated with transportation to or from the
					 unit;
b. the potential pathways of
					 human exposure to hazardous wastes or constituents resulting from the releases
					 described under Subparagraph A.1.a of this Section; and
c. the potential magnitude and nature of the
					 human exposure resulting from such releases.

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. General. New
					 boilers and industrial furnaces (those not operating under interim status) that
					 will be permitted based on a trial burn under LAC 33:V.3005.D.3 are subject to
					 Subsection B of this Section. Boilers and industrial furnaces operating under
					 the interim status standards of LAC 33:V.3007 are subject to Subsection C of
					 this Section.
B. New Boilers and
					 Industrial Furnaces Permitted with a Trial Burn. A permit for a new boiler or
					 industrial furnace shall specify appropriate conditions for the following
					 operating periods.
1. Pre-Trial 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 720 hours operating time when
					 burning hazardous waste, the administrative authority shall establish pre-trial
					 burn permit conditions, including but not limited to allowable hazardous waste
					 feed rates and operating conditions. The administrative authority may extend
					 this operational period once for up to 720 additional hours at the applicant's
					 request when good cause is shown. The permit may be modified to reflect the
					 extension according to LAC 33:V.323 (minor modifications of permits).
a. Applicants must submit a statement with
					 Part II of the permit application that suggests the conditions necessary to
					 operate in compliance with the standards of LAC 33:V.3009-3015 during this
					 period. This statement should include, at a minimum, restrictions on the
					 applicable operating parameters identified in LAC 33:V.3005.E.
b. The administrative authority will review
					 this statement and any other relevant information submitted with Part II of the
					 permit application and specify requirements for this period sufficient to meet
					 the performance standards of LAC 33:V.3009-3015 based on engineering
					 judgment.

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. A
					 RAP is a special form of a RCRA permit that you, as an owner or operator, may
					 obtain, instead of a permit issued under LAC 33:V.303-329 and 501-537, to
					 authorize you to treat, store, or dispose of hazardous remediation waste (as
					 defined in LAC 33:V.109) at a remediation waste management site. A RAP may only
					 be issued for the area of contamination where the remediation wastes to be
					 managed under the RAP originated, or areas in close proximity to the
					 contaminated area, except as allowed in limited circumstances under LAC
					 33:V.699.
B. The requirements in
					 LAC 33:V.303-329 and 501-537 do not apply to RAPs unless those requirements for
					 traditional RCRA permits are specifically required under this Subchapter. The
					 definitions in LAC 33:V.109 apply to RAPs.
C. Notwithstanding any other provision of LAC
					 33:V.Subpart 1, any document that meets the requirements in this Section
					 constitutes a RCRA permit under RCRA Section 3005(c)
D. A RAP may be:
1. a stand-alone document that includes only
					 the information and conditions required by this Subchapter; or
2. part (or parts) of another document that
					 includes information and/or conditions for other activities at the remediation
					 waste management site, in addition to the information and conditions required
					 by this Subchapter.

					 33:V.303-329 and 501-537; or
2. a
					 RAP according to this Subchapter.

						  assurance that, as long as you comply with your RAP, the department will
						  consider you in compliance with Subtitle C of RCRA and will not take
						  enforcement actions against you. However, you should be aware of four
						  exceptions to this provision that are listed in LAC
						  33:V.307.)
