Ohio Administrative Code › Title 3745 - Ohio Environmental Protection Agency › Chapter 3745-270 - Hazardous Wastes Restricted from Land Disposal › Section 3745-270-49 - Alternative land disposal restriction treatment standards for contaminated soil

Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
(A)
			 Applicability. You must comply with land disposal restrictions (LDRs)
			 contained in Chapter 3745-270 of the Administrative Code prior to placing soil
			 that exhibits a characteristic of hazardous waste, or exhibited a
			 characteristic of hazardous waste at the time it was generated, into a land
			 disposal unit. The following chart describes whether you
			 must
			 comply with LDRs prior to placing soil contaminated by listed hazardous waste
			 into a land disposal unit:

(B)
			 Prior to land disposal, contaminated soil identified by paragraph (A) of this
			 rule as needing to comply with LDRs must be treated
			 according to the applicable treatment standards specified in paragraph (C) of
			 this rule or according to the universal treatment standards specified in rule
			 3745-270-48
			 of the Administrative Code applicable to the contaminating listed hazardous
			 waste and/or the applicable characteristic of hazardous waste if the soil is
			 characteristic. The treatment standards specified in paragraph (C) of this rule
			 and the universal treatment standards may be modified through a treatment
			 variance approved in accordance with rule
			 3745-270-44
			 of the Administrative Code.
(C)
			 Treatment standards for contaminated soils. Prior to land disposal,
			 contaminated soil identified by paragraph (A) of this rule as needing to comply
			 with LDRs must be treated according to all the standards
			 specified in paragraphs (C) to (C)(3)(b) of this rule or according to the
			 universal treatment standards specified in rule
			 3745-270-48
			 of the Administrative Code.
(1) All soils.
			 Prior to land disposal, all constituents subject to treatment
			 must be
			 treated as follows:
(a) For non-metals except
			 carbon disulfide, cyclohexanone, and methanol, treatment
			 must
			 achieve ninety per cent reduction in total constituent concentrations, except
			 as provided by paragraph (C)(1)(c) of this rule.
(b) For metals and carbon disulfide,
			 cyclohexanone, and methanol, treatment must achieve
			 ninety per cent reduction in constituent concentrations as measured in leachate
			 from the treated media (tested according to the toxicity characteristic
			 leaching procedure) or ninety per cent reduction in total constituent
			 concentrations (when a metal removal treatment technology is used), except as
			 provided by paragraph (C)(1)(c) of this rule.
(c) When treatment of any constituent subject
			 to treatment to a ninety per cent reduction standard would result in a
			 concentration less than ten times the universal treatment standard for that
			 constituent, treatment to achieve constituent concentrations less than ten
			 times the universal treatment standard is not required. Universal treatment
			 standards are identified in the table in rule
			 3745-270-48
			 of the Administrative Code.
