(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 Section264.573(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 264.573(e) or 264.573(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 owner or operator will do the following:
(i) Clean up the drippage;
(ii) Document the cleanup of the
				  drippage;
(iii) Retain the
				  documents regarding cleanup for three years; and
(iv) Manage the contaminated media in a
				  manner consistent with State and Federal regulations.

				  the standards of 264.573 are complete. The evaluation must document the extent
				  to which the drip pad meets each of the design and operating standards of
				  264.573, except the standards for liners and leak detection systems, specified
				  in 264.573(b).
(b) The owner or
				  operator must develop a written plan for upgrading, repairing, and modifying
				  the drip pad to meet the requirements of 264.573(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 264.573. The plan must be reviewed and certified by a
				  qualified Professional Engineer.
(c) Upon completion of all upgrades, 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 1x10-7 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
				  1x10-7 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 264.572(b) instead of 264.572(a). (revised
				  12/93; 12/94)
(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 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 the
					 industry such as the American Concrete Institute (ACI) or the American Society
					 of Testing and Materials (ASTM) in judging the structural integrity requirement
					 of this paragraph.]
