West Virginia Code of State Rules › Agency 45 - Air Quality › Title 45 - LEGISLATIVE RULE DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AIR QUALITY › Series 45-21 - Regulation to Prevent and Control Air Pollution from the Emission of Volatile Organic Compounds › Section 45-21-22 - Bulk Gasoline Terminals

Current through Register Vol. XLI, No. 28, July 12, 2024
22.1.
				Applicability. -- This section 22. applies to all loading racks at any bulk
				gasoline terminal which deliver liquid product into gasoline tank
				trucks.
22.2. Standards for loading
				racks at bulk gasoline terminals.
22.2.1. Each
				loading rack at a bulk gasoline terminal subject to this section 22. shall be
				equipped with a vapor collection system designed to collect the total volatile
				organic compound (VOC) vapors displaced from tank trucks during product
				loading.
22.2.2. Each vapor
				collection system shall be designed to prevent any VOC vapors collected at one
				loading rack from passing to another loading rack.
22.2.3. Loadings of liquid product into
				gasoline tank trucks shall be limited to vapor-tight gasoline tank trucks using
				the following procedures:
22.2.3.a. The owner
				or operator shall obtain the vapor tightness documentation described in
				subdivisions 22.4.1. and 22.4.2. for each gasoline tank truck that is to be
				loaded at the bulk gasoline terminal loading rack subject to this section
				22.;
22.2.3.b. The owner or
				operator shall require the tank identification number to be recorded as each
				gasoline tank truck is loaded at the terminal;
22.2.3.c. The owner or operator shall
				cross-check each tank identification number obtained in paragraph 22.2.3.b.
				with the file of tank vapor tightness documentation within 2 weeks after the
				corresponding tank is loaded;
22.2.3.d. The terminal owner or operator
				shall notify the owner or operator of each non-vapor-tight gasoline tank truck
				loaded at the bulk gasoline terminal loading rack that the truck is not vapor
				tight subject to this section 22. within 3 weeks after the loading has
				occurred; and
22.2.3.e. The
				terminal owner or operator shall take steps to assure that the non-vapor-tight
				gasoline tank truck will not be reloaded at the bulk gasoline terminal loading
				rack subject to this section 22. until vapor tightness documentation for that
				tank is obtained.
22.2.4. The terminal owner or operator shall
				act to ensure that loadings of gasoline tank trucks at the bulk gasoline
				terminal loading rack subject to this section 22. are made only into tanks
				equipped with vapor collection equipment that is compatible with the terminal's
				vapor collection system.
22.2.5.
				The terminal owner or operator shall act to ensure that the terminal's and the
				tank truck's vapor collection systems are connected during each loading of a
				gasoline tank truck at the bulk gasoline terminal loading racks subject to this
				section 22.
22.2.6. The vapor
				collection and liquid loading equipment shall be designed and operated to
				prevent gauge pressure in the delivery tank from exceeding 4,500 Pascals (Pa)
				(450 millimeters [mm] of water) during product loading. This level is not to be
				exceeded when measured by the procedures specified in subdivision
				22.3.1.
22.2.7. No pressure-vacuum
				vent in the bulk gasoline terminal's vapor collection system shall begin to
				open at a system pressure less than 4,500 Pa (450 mm of water).
22.2.8. Each calendar month, the vapor
				collection system, the vapor control system, and each loading rack handling
				gasoline shall be inspected during the loading of gasoline tank trucks for
				total organic compounds liquid or vapor leaks. For purposes of this subdivision
				22.2.8., detection methods incorporating sight, sound, or smell are acceptable.
				Each detection of a leak shall be recorded and the source of the leak repaired
				within 15 calendar days after it is detected.
22.2.9. The total organic compounds emissions
				to the atmosphere from the vapor collection system due to the loading of liquid
				product into gasoline tank trucks shall not exceed 80 milligrams per liter
				(mg/L) (4.7 grains per gallon [grain/gal]) of gasoline loaded.
22.2.10. Loading of outgoing gasoline tank
				trucks shall be restricted to the use of submerged fill.
