				treatment facility, the owner or operator must:
(A) Determine the concentrations in the waste
			 of any substances which exceed the maximum concentrations contained in table 1
			 of rule

			 of the Administrative Code that cause a waste to exhibit the toxicity
			 characteristic;
(B) For any waste
			 listed as a hazardous waste in rules

			 3745-51-35
			 of the Administrative Code, determine the concentrations of any substances
			 which caused the waste to be listed; and

			 grown and will be grown in the future, must notify the director within sixty
			 days after April 15, 1981.
[Comment: The growth of food chain crops at a facility which
				has never before been used for this purpose is a significant change in process
				under rule
				3745-50-51
				of the Administrative Code. Owners or operators of such land treatment
				facilities who propose to grow food chain crops after April 15, 1981 must
				comply with rule

				of the Administrative Code.]
(B)
(1)
			 Food chain crops must not be grown on the treated area of a hazardous waste

			 3745-67-73 of the
			 Administrative Code:
(a) Will not be
			 transferred to the food portion of the crop by plant uptake or direct contact,
			 and will not otherwise be ingested by food chain animals (e.g., by grazing); or
(b) Will not occur in greater
			 concentrations in the crops grown on the land treatment facility than in the

(A)
			 The owner or operator of landfill units subject to paragraph (A) of rule
			 3745-68-05
			 of the Administrative Code shall 
								develop a response
			 action plan and keep the response action plan on-site until closure of the

			 leak detection system exceeds the action leakage rate for any sump, the owner
			 or operator shall :
(1) Notify the director in writing of the
			 exceedance within seven days after the determination;
(2) Submit a preliminary written assessment
			 to the director within fourteen days after the determination, as to the amount
			 of liquids, likely sources of liquids, possible location, size, and cause of
			 any leaks, and short-term actions taken and planned;
(3) Determine to the extent practicable the
			 location, size, and cause of any leak;
(4)
			 Determine whether waste receipt should cease or should be curtailed, whether
			 any waste should be removed from the unit for inspection, repairs, or controls,
			 and whether or not the unit should be closed;
(5) Determine any other short-term and
			 longer-term actions to be taken to mitigate or stop any leaks; and
(6) Within thirty days after the notification
			 that the action leakage rate has been exceeded, submit to the director the
			 results of the analyses specified in paragraphs (B)(3), (B)(4), and (B)(5) of
			 this rule, the results of actions taken, and actions planned. Monthly
			 thereafter, as long as the flow rate in the leak detection system exceeds the
			 action leakage rate, the owner or operator shall submit to the director a
			 report summarizing the results of any remedial actions taken and actions
			 planned.
Ohio Administrative Code › Title 3745 - Ohio Environmental Protection Agency › Chapter 3745-68 - Landfills, Incinerators, Thermal Treatment, Miscellaneous Units › Section 3745-68-04 - Monitoring and inspection

Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
(A) An owner or operator required to have a
			 leak detection system under paragraph (A) of rule
			 3745-68-05
			 of the Administrative Code must record the amount of liquids removed from each
			 leak detection system sump at least once each week during the active life and
			 closure period.
(B) After the final
			 cover is installed, the amount of liquids removed from each leak detection
			 system sump must be recorded at least monthly. If the liquid level in the sump
			 stays below the pump operating level for two consecutive months, the amount of
			 liquids in the sumps must be recorded at least quarterly. If the liquid level
			 in the sump stays below the pump operating level for two consecutive quarters,
			 the amount of liquids in the sumps must be recorded at least semi-annually. If
			 at any time during the post-closure care period the pump operating level is
			 exceeded at units on quarterly or semi-annual recording schedules, the owner or
			 operator must return to monthly recording of amounts of liquids removed from
			 each sump until the liquid level again stays below the pump operating level for
			 two consecutive months.
(C) "Pump
			 operating level" is a liquid level proposed by the owner or operator and
			 approved by the director based on pump activation level, sump dimensions, and
			 level that avoids backup into the drainage layer and minimizes head in the
			 sump. The timing for submittal and approval of the proposed "pump operating
			 level" will be in accordance with paragraph (A) of rule
			 3745-68-02 of
			 the Administrative Code.
