Utah Admin. Code R315-264-273 - Design and Operating Requirements

The Director shall specify in the facility permit how the owner or operator will design, construct, operate, and maintain the land treatment unit in compliance with Section R315-264-273.

(a) The owner or operator shall design, construct, operate, and maintain the unit to maximize the degradation, transformation, and immobilization of hazardous constituents in the treatment zone. The owner or operator shall design, construct, operate, and maintain the unit in accord with all design and operating conditions that were used in the treatment demonstration under Section R315-264-272. At a minimum, the Director shall specify the following in the facility permit:
(1) The rate and method of waste application to the treatment zone;
(2) Measures to control soil pH;
(3) Measures to enhance microbial or chemical reactions, e.g., fertilization, tilling; and
(4) Measures to control the moisture content of the treatment zone.
(b) The owner or operator shall design, construct, operate, and maintain the treatment zone to minimize run-off of hazardous constituents during the active life of the land treatment unit.
(c) The owner or operator shall design, construct, operate, and maintain a run-on control system capable of preventing flow onto the treatment zone during peak discharge from at least a 25-year storm.
(d) The owner or operator shall design, construct, operate, and maintain a run-off management system to collect and control at least the water volume resulting from a 24-hour, 25-year storm.
(e) Collection and holding facilities, e.g., tanks or basins, associated with run-on and run-off control systems shall be emptied or otherwise managed expeditiously after storms to maintain the design capacity of the system.
(f) If the treatment zone contains particulate matter which may be subject to wind dispersal, the owner or operator shall manage the unit to control wind dispersal.
(g) The owner or operator shall inspect the unit weekly and after storms to detect evidence of:
(1) Deterioration, malfunctions, or improper operation of run-on and run-off control systems; and
(2) Improper functioning of wind dispersal control measures.
