Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1,
			 2024
(A) This rule sets
			 forth the procedures and criteria for approval of an alternative infectious
			 waste treatment technology. An alternative infectious waste treatment
			 technology is any combination of methods, techniques, practices, designs,
			 constructions, operations, process, or equipment, intended to treat infectious
			 waste that is not specified in rule
			 3745-27-32
			 of the Administrative Code. Nothing in this rule relieves the owner or operator
			 seeking such approval from the requirement to obtain any applicable permits or
			 licenses including those pursuant to sections
			 3734.02 and
			 3734.05 of the Revised
			 Code.
(B) The applicant may request
			 either a statewide approval or a site-specific approval, in accordance with
			 paragraphs (C), (D), and (E) of this rule. An alternative treatment technology
			 with statewide approval may be used at any facility throughout the state of
			 Ohio without the operator first performing initial validation testing. An
			 alternative treatment technology with site-specific approval shall have initial
			 validation testing performed by the operator prior to use. The following
			 demonstrations shall accompany any such approval request:
[Comment: Validation testing is performed prior to use to
				ensure that the alternative treatment technology will be able to achieve the
				performance standard for treatment. Quality assurance testing is an on-going
				monitor of the treatment technology's ability to attain the performance
				standard for treatment.]
(1)
			 Statewide approval performance standard. The achievement of a minimum four
			 log10 reduction of bacterial spores and a minimum five log10 reduction of
			 mycobacteria as specified in table 1 of paragraph (E)(1) of this rule
			 immediately upon exit of the wastes from the treatment unit.
(2) Site-specific approval performance
			 standard. The achievement of a minimum four log10 reduction of bacterial spores
			 specified in table 2 of paragraph (E)(1) of this rule immediately upon exit of
			 the wastes from the treatment unit.

(2) The owner or operator of an infectious
			 waste treatment facility that is required to obtain an annual operating license
			 in accordance with section
			 3734.05 of the Revised Code

			 waste treatment facility that maintains a solid waste license with an
			 infectious waste notation in accordance with section
			 3734.05 of the Revised Code,
			 shall comply with paragraphs (C), (D) and (E) of this rule. Closure
			 requirements shall pertain only to infectious waste operations.

				treatment facility that has a solid waste license with an infectious waste
				notation and no longer wishes to treat infectious wastes will be required to
				perform closure. The facility will be able to continue to manage solid wastes
				and the infectious waste notation will be removed from the license on the next
				renewal date.]

			 owner or operator of an infectious waste treatment facility that has multiple
			 infectious waste treatment units and ceases treating infectious wastes by any
			 treatment unit and still maintains infectious waste treatment by the remaining
