Utah Admin. Code R315-270-80 - Hazardous Waste Permit Program - What is a RAP?

(a) A RAP is a special form of hazardous waste permit that you, as an owner or operator, may obtain, instead of a permit issued under Sections R315-270-3 through 66, to authorize you to treat, store, or dispose of hazardous remediation waste, as defined in Section R315-260-10, at a remediation waste management site. A RAP may only be issued for the area of contamination where the remediation wastes to be managed under the RAP originated, or areas in close proximity to the contaminated area, except as allowed in limited circumstances under Section R315-270-230.

(b) The requirements in Sections R315-270-3 through 66 do not apply to RAPs unless those requirements for traditional permits are specifically required under Sections R315-270-80 through 230. The definitions in Section R315-270-2 apply to RAPs.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of Rule R315-270 or Rule R315-124, any document that meets the requirements in Section R315-270-80 constitutes a hazardous waste permit Section 19-6-108.

(d) A RAP may be:

(1) A stand-alone document that includes only the information and conditions required by Sections R315-270-79 through 230; or

(2) Part, or parts, of another document that includes information and/or conditions for other activities at the remediation waste management site, in addition to the information and conditions required by Sections R315-270-79 through 230.

(e) If you are treating, storing, or disposing of hazardous remediation wastes as part of a cleanup compelled by Federal or State cleanup authorities, your RAP does not affect your obligations under those authorities in any way.

(f) If you receive a RAP at a facility operating under interim status, the RAP does not terminate your interim status.
