Ohio Administrative Code › Title 3745 - Ohio Environmental Protection Agency › Chapter 3745-580 - Scrap tire › Section 3745-580-705 - Construction of a scrap tire monofill facility

Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
This rule identifies the engineered
				components of a scrap tire monofill facility, design specifications, and
				construction and reporting requirements.
(A)
								The owner or
			 operator shall contact the approved board of health and Ohio EPA prior to
			 commencing construction of each phase of the scrap tire monofill facility for
			 the purpose of inspection.
(B)
								The owner or
			 operator shall design and construct the scrap tire monofill facility as
			 follows:
(1)
									The
			 foundation or added geologic material used to meet the isolation distance
			 between the uppermost aquifer system and the bottom of the liner system
			 complies with the following:
(a)
										Is free of debris, foreign material, deleterious
			 material, and shall not contain large objects in such quantities as may
			 interfere with its application and intended purpose.
(b)
										Is not comprised
			 of solid waste.
(c)
										Is determined to have adequate strength to satisfy
			 bearing capacity and slope stability strength requirements.
(d)
										Is resistant to
			 internal erosion.
(e)
										For foundation, has quality control testing for
			 resistance to internal erosion of any stratigraphic units that have not been
			 anticipated and that are more susceptible to seepage piping failure than the
			 stratigraphic units that were tested and reported in the permit to install in
			 accordance with ASTM D4647.
(f)
										For added
			 geologic material, is constructed in lifts to achieve uniform compaction that
			 comply with the following:
(i)
											Be constructed in loose lifts of twelve inches or
			 less.
(ii)
											Be constructed of a soil with a maximum clod size that
			 does not exceed the lift thickness.
(iii)
											Be compacted to
			 at least ninety-five per cent of the maximum dry density determined in
			 accordance with ASTM D698 or at least ninety per cent of the maximum dry
			 density determined in accordance with ASTM D1557.
(iv)
											Be placed with a
			 soil moisture content that is not less than two per cent below or more than
			 four per cent above the optimum moisture content determined in accordance with
			 ASTM D698 or ASTM D1557.
(v)
											Have a maximum permeability of 1 x
			 10-5 cm/sec determined in accordance with ASTM D5084
			 or other method acceptable to Ohio EPA at a frequency of no less than one test
			 per acre per lift. The locations of the individual tests shall be adequately
			 spaced to represent the constructed area and any penetrations repaired. This
			 paragraph does not apply if the soil is classified as a "CL" in accordance with
			 ASTM D2487.
(vi)
											Be classified as slightly dispersive (ND3) or
			 nondispersive (ND2, ND1) determined in accordance with ASTM
			 D4647.
(g)
										For added geologic material, have quality control
			 testing of the constructed lifts performed to determine the density and
			 moisture content in accordance with ASTM D6938, ASTM D1556, ASTM D2167 or other
			 methods acceptable to Ohio EPA at a frequency of no less than five tests per
			 acre per lift. The locations of the individual tests shall be adequately spaced
			 to represent the constructed area and any penetrations repaired using
			 bentonite.
