Haw. Code R. § 11-265-1063 - 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 11-265-1052 through 11-265-1062, shall comply with the following
requirements:
(1) Monitoring shall comply
with Reference Method 21 in 40 CFR Part 60 (1998).
(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 ten 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 11-265-1052(e),
11-265-1053(i), section 11-265-1054, and subsection 11-265-1057(f), the test
shall comply with the following requirements:
(1) The requirements of paragraphs (b) (1)
through (b) (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 five-hundred ppm for determining compliance.
(d) In accordance with the waste analysis
plan required by subsection 11-265-13(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
ten 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 ten 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 ten 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 ten
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 ninety-five weight percent organic
emission reduction shall comply with the procedures of paragraphs
11-265-1034(c) (1) through 11-265-1034(c)(4).
