(a)
General
. This subchapter applies to waste oil burners except
						as specified in paragraphs (1) and (2). A waste oil burner is a facility where
						waste oil not meeting the specification requirements in §
												298.11 (relating to waste oil
						specifications) is burned for energy recovery in devices identified in §
												298.61(a)
						(relating to restrictions on burning). A waste oil burner who complies with
						this subchapter is deemed to have a solid waste permit for the burning of that
						waste oil. The Department may require a waste oil burner subject to
						permit-by-rule to apply for, and obtain, an individual or general permit, or
						take other appropriate action, when the waste oil burner is not in compliance
						with the requirements for the permit-by-rule or is conducting an activity that
						harms or presents a threat of harm to the health, safety or welfare of the
						people or the environment of this Commonwealth. Facilities burning waste oil
						for energy recovery under one or more of the following conditions are not
						subject to this subchapter:
(1) The waste oil
						is burned by the generator in an onsite space heater under the provisions of
						§
													298.23 (relating to onsite burning
						in space heaters).
(2) The waste
						oil is burned by a processor/rerefiner for purposes of processing waste oil
						which is considered burning incidentally to waste oil
						processing.
