Haw. Code R. § 11-264-1063 - Test methods and procedures
(a) Each owner or
operator subject to the provisions of this subchapter shall comply with the
test methods and procedures requirements provided in this section.
(b) Leak detection monitoring, as required in
sections 11-264-1052 through 11-264-1062, shall comply with the following
requirements:
(1) Monitoring shall comply
with Reference Method 21 in 40 CFR Part 60.
(2) The detection instrument shall meet the
performance criteria of Reference Method 21.
(3) The instrument shall be calibrated before
use on each day of its use by the procedures specified in Reference Method
21.
(4) Calibration gases shall be:
(i) Zero air (less than 10 ppm of hydrocarbon
in air).
(ii) A mixture of methane
or n-hexane and air at a concentration of approximately, but less than,
ten-thousand ppm methane or n-hexane.
(5) The instrument probe shall be traversed
around all potential leak interfaces as close to the interface as possible as
described in Reference Method 21.
(c) When equipment is tested for compliance
with no detectable emissions, as required in subsections 11-264-1052(e) and
11-264-1053(i), section 11-264-1054, and subsection 11-264-1057(f), the test
shall comply with the following requirements:
(1) The requirements of paragraphs (b) (1)
through (4) shall apply.
(2) The
background level shall be determined as set forth in Reference Method
21.
(3) The instrument probe shall
be traversed around all potential leak interfaces as close to the interface as
possible as described in Reference Method 21.
(4) The arithmetic difference between the
maximum concentration indicated by the instrument and the background level is
compared with 500 ppm for determining compliance.
(d) In accordance with the waste analysis
plan required by subsection 11-264-13(b), an owner or operator of a facility
must determine, for each piece of equipment, whether the equipment contains or
contacts a hazardous waste with organic concentration that equals or exceeds 10
percent by weight using the following:
(1)
Methods described in ASTM Methods D 2267-88, E 169-87, E 168-88, E 260-85
(incorporated by reference under section 11-260-11);
(2) Method 9060 or 8260 of SW-846
(incorporated by reference under section 11-260-11); or
(3) Application of the knowledge of the
nature of the hazardous waste stream or the process by which it was produced.
Documentation of a waste determination by knowledge is required. Examples of
documentation that shall be used to support a determination under this
provision include production process information documenting that no organic
compounds are used, information that the waste is generated by a process that
is identical to a process at the same or another facility that has previously
been demonstrated by direct measurement to have a total organic content less
than 10 percent, or prior speciation analysis results on the same waste stream
where it can also be documented that no process changes have occurred since
that analysis that could affect the waste total organic
concentration.
(e) If an
owner or operator determines that a piece of equipment contains or contacts a
hazardous waste with organic concentrations at least 10 percent by weight, the
determination can be revised only after following the procedures in paragraph
(d) (1) or (d) (2).
(f) When an
owner or operator and the director do not agree on whether a piece of equipment
contains or contacts a hazardous waste with organic concentrations at least 10
percent by weight, the procedures in paragraph (d) (1) or (d) (2) can be used
to resolve the dispute.
(g) Samples
used in determining the percent organic content shall be representative of the
highest total organic content hazardous waste that is expected to be contained
in or contact the equipment.
(h) To
determine if pumps or valves are in light liquid service, the vapor pressures
of constituents may be obtained from standard reference texts or may be
determined by ASTM D-2879-86 (incorporated by reference under section 11-260-11).
(i) Performance tests to
determine if a control device achieves 95 weight percent organic emission
reduction shall comply with the procedures of paragraphs 11-264-1034(c) (1)
through (c) (4).
