(a) The
				  requirements of this subpart apply to owners and operators of facilities that
				  use new or existing drip pads to convey treated wood drippage, precipitation,
				  and/or surface water runoff to an associated collection system. Existing drip
				  pads are those constructed before December 6, 1990, and those for which the
				  owner or operator has a design and has entered into binding financial or other
				  agreements for construction prior to December 6, 1990. All other drip pads are
				  new drip pads. The requirement at Section265.443(b)(3)(b)(3) to install a leak
				  collection system applies only to those drip pads that are constructed after
				  December 24, 1992 except for those constructed after December 24, 1992 for
				  which the owner or operator has a design and has entered into binding financial
				  or other agreements for construction prior to December 24, 1992.
(b) The owner or operator of any drip pad
				  that is inside or under a structure that provides protection from precipitation
				  so that neither runoff nor runon is generated is not subject to regulation
				  under 265.443(e) or 265.443(f), as appropriate.
(c) The requirements of this subpart are not
				  applicable to the management of infrequent and incidental drippage in storage
				  yards provided that:
(1) The owner or operator
				  maintains and complies with a written contingency plan that describes how the
				  owner or operator will respond immediately to the discharge of such infrequent
				  and incidental drippage. At a minimum, the contingency plan must describe how
				  the facility will do the following:
(i) Clean
				  up the drippage;
(ii) Document the
				  cleanup of the drippage;
(iii)
				  Retain documents regarding cleanup for three years; and
(iv) Manage the contaminated media in a
				  manner consistent with State regulations.

(a) For each existing drip pad as defined in
				  265.440, the owner or operator must evaluate the drip pad and determine that it
				  meets all of the requirements of this subpart, except the requirements for
				  liners and leak detection systems of 265.443(b). No later than the effective
				  date of this rule, the owner or operator must obtain and keep on file at the
				  facility a written assessment of the drip pad, reviewed and certified by a
				  qualified Professional Engineer that attests to the results of the evaluation.
				  The assessment must be reviewed, updated, and recertified annually until all
				  upgrades, repairs, or modifications necessary to achieve compliance with all
				  the standards of 265.443 are complete. The evaluation must document the extent
				  to which the drip pad meets each of the design and operating standards of
				  265.443, except the standards for liners and leak detection systems, specified
				  in 265.443(b).
(b) The owner or
				  operator must develop a written plan for upgrading, repairing, and modifying
				  the drip pad to meet the requirements of 265.443(b), and submit the plan to the
				  Department no later than 2 years before the date that all repairs, upgrades,
				  and modifications are complete. This written plan must describe all changes to
				  be made to the drip pad in sufficient detail to document compliance with all
				  the requirements of 265.443. The plan must be reviewed and certified by a
				  qualified Professional Engineer.
(c) Upon completion of all repairs and
				  modifications, the owner or operator must submit to the Department the as-built
				  drawings for the drip pad together with a certification by a qualified
				  Professional Engineer attesting that the drip pad conforms to the
				  drawings.
(d) If the drip pad is

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 6, June 28, 2024
(a) Drip pads must:
(1) Be constructed of nonearthen materials,
				  excluding wood and nonstructurally supported asphalt;
(2) Be sloped to free-drain treated wood
				  drippage, rain and other waters, or solutions of drippage and water or other
				  wastes to the associated collection system;
(3) Have a curb or berm around the
				  perimeter;
(4)
(i) Have a hydraulic conductivity of less
				  than or equal to 1×10-7 centimeters per second,
				  e.g., existing concrete drip pads must be sealed, coated, or covered with a
				  surface material with a hydraulic conductivity of less than or equal to
				  1×10-7 centimeters per second such that the entire
				  surface where drippage occurs or may run across is capable of containing such
				  drippage and mixtures of drippage and precipitation, materials, or other wastes
				  while being routed to an associated collection system. This surface material
				  must be maintained free of cracks and gaps that could adversely affect its
				  hydraulic conductivity, and the material must be chemically compatible with the
				  preservatives that contact the drip pad. The requirements of this provision
				  apply only to existing drip pads and those drip pads for which the owner or
				  operator elects to comply with Section265.442(b)(b) instead of
				  Section265.442(a)(a). (added 12/93)
(ii) The owner or operator must obtain and
				  keep on file at the facility a written assessment of the drip pad, reviewed and
				  certified by a qualified Professional Engineer that attests to the results of
				  the evaluation. The assessment must be reviewed, updated and recertified
				  annually. The evaluation must document the extent to which the drip pad meets
				  the design and operating standards of this section, except for paragraph (b) of
				  this section.
(5) Be of
				  sufficient structural strength and thickness to prevent failure due to physical
				  contact, climatic conditions, the stress of installation, and the stress of
				  daily operations, e.g., variable and moving loads such as vehicle traffic,
				  movement of wood, etc.
Note: The Department will generally consider applicable
					 standards established by professional organizations generally recognized by
					 industry such as the American Concrete Institute (ACI) and the American Society
					 of Testing Materials (ASTM) in judging the structural integrity requirement of
					 this paragraph.
