Ohio Administrative Code › Title 3745 - Ohio Environmental Protection Agency › Chapter 3745-50 - Hazardous Waste Management System-General › Section 3745-50-58 - Conditions applicable to all permits

Current through all regulations passed and filed
			 through July 1, 2024
The following conditions apply to all Ohio hazardous waste
				permits issued pursuant to a review of a "Part B" application, and shall be
				incorporated into the permits either expressly or by reference. If incorporated
				by reference, a specific citation to hazardous waste management rules shall be
				given in the permit.
(A) Duty to
			 comply. The permittee shall comply with all conditions of this permit except
			 that the permittee need not comply with the conditions of this permit to the
			 extent and for the duration such noncompliance is authorized in an emergency
			 permit. (See rule
			 3745-50-57 of
			 the Administrative Code.) Any permit noncompliance, except under the terms of
			 an emergency permit, constitutes a violation of Chapter 3734. of the Revised
			 Code and is grounds for enforcement action; for permit revocation or
			 modification; or for denial of a permit renewal application.
(B) Duty to reapply. If the permittee wishes
			 to continue an activity regulated by this permit after the expiration date of
			 this permit, the permittee shall apply for and obtain a new permit.
(C) The need to halt or reduce activity is
			 not a defense for a permittee in an enforcement action for which the permittee
			 would have to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain
			 compliance with the conditions of this permit.
(D)
								
								In the event of noncompliance with the permit,
			 the permittee shall take all reasonable steps to minimize releases to the
			 environment, and shall carry out such measures as are reasonable to prevent
			 significant adverse impact on human health or the environment
			 .
(E) Proper
			 operation and maintenance. The permittee shall at all times properly operate
			 and maintain all facilities and systems of treatment and control (and related
			 appurtenances) which are installed or used by the permittee to achieve
			 compliance with the conditions of this permit. Proper operation and maintenance
			 includes effective performance, adequate funding, adequate operator staffing
			 and training, and adequate laboratory and process controls, including
			 appropriate quality assurance procedures. This provision requires the operation
			 of back-up or auxiliary facilities or similar systems only when necessary to
			 achieve compliance with the conditions of the permit.
(F) Permit actions. This permit may be
			 modified or revoked for cause. The filing of a request by the permittee for a
			 permit modification or revocation, or a notification of planned changes or
			 anticipated noncompliance, does not stay any permit condition.
(G) Property rights. The permit does not
			 convey any property rights of any sort, or any exclusive privilege.
(H) Duty to provide information. The
			 permittee shall furnish to the director, within a reasonable time, any relevant
			 information which the director may request to determine whether cause exists
			 for modifying or revoking, or to determine compliance with, this permit. The
			 permittee also shall  furnish to the director, upon request, copies
			 of records required to be kept by this permit.
(I) Inspection and entry. The permittee shall
			 allow the director, or an authorized representative, upon proper identification
			 and upon stating the purpose and necessity of an inspection, to
			 :
(1) Enter at reasonable times upon the
			 permittee's premises where a regulated facility or activity is located or
			 conducted, or where records shall be kept under the conditions of this
			 permit;
(2) Have
			 access to and copy, at reasonable times, any records that shall be kept under
			 the conditions of this permit;
(3)
			 Inspect at reasonable times any facilities, equipment (including monitoring and
			 control equipment), practices, or operations regulated or required under this
			 permit;
			 and
(4) Sample or monitor at
			 reasonable times, for the purposes of assuring permit compliance or as
			 otherwise authorized by Chapter 3734. of the Revised Code, any substances or
			 parameters at any location.
