(A)
								An applicant for an authorizing document, and an owner
			 or operator that has obtained a permit to install or a license for a solid
			 waste transfer facility pursuant to rules adopted under section
			 3734.02 of the Revised Code,
			 shall comply with this chapter. The owner or operator of a transfer facility
			 that accepts exclusively source-separated yard waste for transfer shall comply
			 with this chapter. Compliance with this chapter does not relieve any person
			 from the obligation to comply with any applicable statute, rule, or authorizing
			 document.
[Comment: The owner or operator of a
				transfer facility who has established a solid waste transfer facility by
				obtaining a license to operate a solid waste transfer facility prior to May 31,
				1991 (the effective date of rules adopted under division (A) of section
				3734.02 and under division (D)
				of section 3734.12 of the Revised Code
				which require that no person shall establish a new solid waste transfer
				facility without first submitting an application for a permit) and did not
				modify the transfer facility after that date, is not required to obtain a
				permit to install, unless such owner or operator modifies the existing solid
				waste transfer facility.]
(B)
								No person shall
			 operate a solid waste transfer facility without first obtaining a license to
			 operate the solid waste transfer facility issued by the licensing authority.
			 This requirement does not apply to a transfer facility that accepts exclusively
			 source-separated yard waste for transfer.
(C)
								An owner or
			 operator of a solid waste transfer facility shall obtain, maintain, and comply
			 with all applicable permits and authorizations required by Chapters 3704. and
			 6111. of the Revised Code for the solid waste transfer
			 facility.

								No person shall establish a new solid waste transfer
			 facility or modify an existing solid waste transfer facility without first
			 obtaining a permit to install issued in accordance with rule
			 3745-555-300
			 of the Administrative Code. This requirement does not apply to a transfer
			 facility that accepts exclusively source-separated yard wastes for
			 transfer.
(E)
								An owner or operator of a solid waste transfer facility
			 shall maintain compliance with all permits to install, permit modifications and
			 permit alterations, licenses, and orders issued in accordance with Chapter
			 3734. of the Revised Code and rules adopted thereunder.

								Except as
			 provided in rule
			 3745-512-51

								If the director orders the owner or operator to submit
			 updated engineering detail plans, specifications, and information in accordance
			 with division (A)(5) of section
			 3734.05 of the Revised Code, and
			 no permit to install was issued pursuant to Chapter 3734. of the Revised Code,
			 the owner or operator shall submit an application for a permit to install in
			 accordance with rule
			 3745-555-300
			 of the Administrative Code as though the solid waste transfer facility were
			 being established as a new transfer facility.
(H)
								The permit to
			 install shall remain in effect until the director has received, and approved in
			 writing, certification that all required final closure activities were
			 completed, unless the permit has expired in accordance with rule
			 3745-500-330
			 of the Administrative Code or was revoked in accordance with rule
			 3745-500-350
			 of the Administrative Code.

			 operator of a solid waste transfer facility may request the director to make an
			 administrative change to the permit to install in accordance with rule
			 3745-500-360
			 of the Administrative Code.
