Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
(A) To implement remedies under rule
			 3745-54-101
			 of the Administrative Code or Section 3008(h) of RCRA, or to implement remedies
			 at a permitted facility that is not subject to rule
			 3745-54-101
			 of the Administrative Code, the director may designate an area at the facility
			 as a corrective action management unit under the requirements in this rule.
			 Corrective action management unit (CAMU) means an area within a facility that
			 is used only for managing CAMU-eligible wastes for implementing corrective
			 action or cleanup at the facility. A CAMU shall be located
			 within the contiguous property under the control of the owner or operator where
			 the wastes to be managed in the CAMU originated. One or more CAMUs may be
			 designated at a facility.
(1) CAMU-eligible
			 waste means:
(a) All non-hazardous and
			 hazardous wastes, and all media (including ground water, surface water, soils,
			 and sediments) and debris, that are managed for implementing cleanup.
			 As-generated wastes (either hazardous or non-hazardous) from ongoing industrial
			 operations at a site are not CAMU-eligible wastes.
(b) Wastes that would otherwise meet the
			 description in paragraph (A)(1)(a) of this rule are not "CAMU-Eligible Wastes"
			 where:
(i) The wastes are hazardous wastes
			 found during cleanup in intact or substantially intact containers, tanks, or
			 other non-land-based units found above ground, unless the wastes are first
			 placed in the tanks, containers or non-land-based units as part of cleanup, or
			 the containers or tanks are excavated during the course of cleanup;
			 or
(ii) The director exercises the
			 discretion in paragraph (A)(2) of this rule to prohibit the wastes from
			 management in a CAMU.
(c)
			 Notwithstanding paragraph (A)(1)(a) of this rule, where appropriate,
			 as-generated non-hazardous waste may be placed in a CAMU where such waste is
			  used to facilitate treatment or the
			 performance of the CAMU.
Ohio Administrative Code › Title 3745 - Ohio Environmental Protection Agency › Chapter 3745-57 - Disposal of Hazardous Waste in Landfills › Section 3745-57-73 - Temporary units

Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024

Ohio Administrative Code › Title 3745 - Ohio Environmental Protection Agency › Chapter 3745-57 - Disposal of Hazardous Waste in Landfills › Section 3745-57-74 - Staging piles

Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
This rule is written in a special format to make it easier to
				understand the regulatory requirements. Like other Ohio EPA rules, this
				establishes enforceable legal requirements. For this rule, "I" and "you" refer
				to the owner or operator.
(A) What is
			 a staging pile? A staging pile is an accumulation of solid, non-flowing
			 "remediation waste" (as defined in rule
			 3745-50-10
			 of the Administrative Code) that is not a containment building and is used only
			 during remedial operations for temporary storage at a facility. A staging pile
			 shall be located within the contiguous property under the control of the owner
			 or operator where the wastes to be managed in the staging pile originated.
			 Staging piles shall be designated by the director according to this rule.
(1) For the purposes of this rule, storage
			 includes mixing, sizing, blending, or other similar physical operations as long
			 as 
									these
			 activities are intended to prepare the wastes for subsequent management
			 or treatment.
(2)
			 [Reserved.]
Ohio Administrative Code › Title 3745 - Ohio Environmental Protection Agency › Chapter 3745-57 - Disposal of Hazardous Waste in Landfills › Section 3745-57-75 - Disposal of CAMU-eligible wastes in permitted hazardous waste landfills

Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
(A) The director
			 may approve placement of corrective action management unit (CAMU)-eligible
			 wastes in hazardous waste landfills not located at the site from which the
			 waste originated, without the wastes meeting the requirements of Chapter
			 3745-270 of the Administrative Code, if the conditions in paragraphs (A)(1) to
			 (A)(3) of this rule are met:
(1) The waste
			 meets the definition of CAMU-eligible waste in paragraphs (A)(1) and (A)(2) of
			 rule
			 3745-57-72
			 of the Administrative Code.
(2) The
			 director identifies principal hazardous constitutes in such waste, in
			 accordance with paragraphs (E)(4)(a) and (E)(4)(b) of rule
			 3745-57-72
			 of the Administrative Code, and requires that such principal hazardous
			 constituents are treated to any of the following standards specified for
			 CAMU-eligible wastes:
(a) The treatment
			 standards under paragraph (E)(4)(d) of rule
			 3745-57-72
			 of the Administrative Code; or
(b)
			 Treatment standards adjusted in accordance with paragraph (E)(4)(e)(i),
			 (E)(4)(e)(iii), (E)(4)(e)(iv), or (E)(4)(e)(v)(a) of rule
			 3745-57-72
			 of the Administrative Code; or
(c)
			 Treatment standards adjusted in accordance with paragraph (E)(4)(e)(v)(b) of
			 rule
			 3745-57-72
			 of the Administrative Code, where treatment has been used and that treatment
			 significantly reduces the toxicity or mobility of the principal hazardous
			 constituents in the waste, minimizing the short-term and long-term threat posed
			 by the waste, including the threat at the remediation site.
(3) The landfill receiving the
			 CAMU-eligible waste must have a hazardous waste permit, meet the requirements
			 for new landfills in rules
			 3745-57-02
			 to
			 3745-57-17
			 of the Administrative Code, and be authorized to accept CAMU-eligible wastes;
			 for the purposes of this requirement, "permit" does not include permit by rule.

[Comment: For example, the facility's record of analyses
				performed on the waste before April 15, 1981, or studies conducted on hazardous
				waste generated from processes similar to that which generated the waste to be
				managed at the facility, may be included in the data base required to comply
				with paragraph (A)(1) of this rule. The owner or operator of an off-site
				facility may arrange for the generator of the hazardous waste to supply part of
				the information required by paragraph (A)(1) of this rule, except as otherwise
				specified in paragraphs (B) and (C) of rule
				3745-270-07 of the
				Administrative Code. If the generator does not supply the information, and the
				owner or operator chooses to accept a hazardous waste, the owner or operator is
				responsible for obtaining the information required to comply with this
				rule.]
(3) The analysis
			 shall be repeated as necessary to ensure that the analysis is accurate and up
			 to date. At a minimum, the analysis shall be repeated
			 :
(a)
			 When the owner or operator is notified, or has reason to believe, that the
			 process or operation generating the hazardous 
										wastes or
			 nonhazardous wastes, if applicable, under paragraph (D) of rule
			 3745-66-13 of the Administrative
			 Code, has changed;
			 and
(b) For off-site
			 facilities, when the results of the inspection required in paragraph (A)(4) of
			 this rule indicate that the hazardous waste received at the facility does not
			 match the waste designated on the accompanying manifest or shipping
			 paper.
(4) The owner or
			 operator of an off-site facility shall inspect and, if necessary, analyze each
			 hazardous waste movement received at the facility to determine whether the
			 waste matches the identity of the waste specified on the accompanying manifest
			 or shipping paper.
