Current through June 24, 2024
(1) The regulations of this subchapter apply
				  to hazardous waste burned or processed in a boiler or industrial furnace (as
				  defined in s.
				  NR
				  660.10 ) irrespective of the purpose of burning or
				  processing, except as provided by subs. (2), (3), (4), (7) and (8). In this
				  subchapter, the term "burn" means burning for energy recovery or destruction,
				  or processing for materials recovery or as an ingredient. The emissions
				  standards of ss.
				  NR
				  666.104, 666.105, 666.106 and 666.107 apply to
				  facilities operating under an interim license or under a license as specified
				  in ss.
				  NR
				  666.102 and 666.103.
(2)
(a)
				  Except as provided by pars. (b), (c), and (d), the standards of this subchapter
				  do not apply to a new hazardous waste boiler or industrial furnace unit that
				  becomes subject to hazardous waste license requirements after October 12, 2005;
				  or no longer apply when an affected source demonstrates compliance with the
				  maximum achievable control technology (MACT) requirements of 40 CFR part 63,
				  subpart EEE, by conducting a comprehensive performance test and submitting to
				  the department a notification of compliance under
				  40 CFR
				  63.1207(j) and
				  63.1210(d)
				  documenting compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart EEE. Nevertheless, even
				  after this demonstration of compliance with the MACT standards, hazardous waste
				  license conditions that were based on the standards of this chapter shall
				  continue to be in effect until the conditions are removed from the license or
				  the license is terminated or revoked, unless the license expressly provides
				  otherwise.
(b) The following
				  standards all continue to apply:
1. If you
				  elect to comply with s.
				  NR
				  670.235(1) (a) 1. to minimize
				  emissions of toxic compounds from startup, shutdown and malfunction events, s.
				  NR 666.102(5)
				  (a) requiring operations in accordance with
				  the operating requirements specified in the license at all times that hazardous
				  waste is in the unit, and s.
				  NR 666.102(5) (b)
				  3. requiring compliance with the emission
				  standards and operating requirements during startup and shutdown if hazardous
				  waste is in the combustion chamber, except for particular hazardous wastes.
				  These provisions apply only during startup, shutdown and malfunction
				  events.
2. The closure requirements
				  of ss.
				  NR 666.102(5)
				  (k) and 666.103(12).
3. The standards for direct transfer of s.
				  NR
				  666.111.
4. The standards for regulation of residues
				  of s.
				  NR
				  666.112.
5. The applicable requirements of subchs. A
				  to H, BB and CC of ch. NR 664 and subchs. A to H, BB and CC of ch. NR
				  665.
(c) If an owner or
				  operator of a boiler or hydrochloric acid production furnace that is an area
				  source under
				  40
				  CFR 63.2 and the owner or operator elects not
				  to comply with the emission standards under
				  40
				  CFR 63.1216,
				  63.1217,
				  and
				  63.1218
				  for particulate matter, semi-volatile and low volatile metals and total
				  chlorine, the owner or operator remains subject to:
1. Section
				  NR
				  666.105 -Standards to control particulate
				  matter.
2. Section
				  NR
				  666.106 -Standards to control metals emissions, except
				  for mercury.
3. Section
				  NR
				  666.107 -Standards to control hydrogen chloride and
				  chlorine gas.
(d) The
				  particulate matter standard of s.
				  NR
				  666.105 remains in effect for boilers that elect to
				  comply with the alternative to the particulate matter standard under
				  40
				  CFR 63.1216(e) and
				  63.1217(e).
