Records of the analyses conducted or information used to comply with this subrule must be maintained by the burner for a period of not less than 3 years.
(6) A used oil burner shall not store used oil in units other than containers or tanks.
(7) A used oil burner that generates residues from the storage or burning of used oil shall manage the residues in accordance with part 111 and these rules.
