[Eff ] (Auth: HRS §342P-41) (Imp: 40 CFR Part 61.153) §11-501-16 Standard for active waste disposal sites. Each owner or operator of an active waste disposal site that receives asbestos-containing waste material from a source regulated pursuant to section 11-501-11, 11-501-12 or 11-501-17 shall meet the requirements of this section: (1) There shall be no visible emissions to the outside air from any active waste disposal site where asbestos-containing waste material has been deposited; or the requirements of paragraph (3) or (4) shall be met; (2) Unless a natural barrier adequately deters access by the general public, either warning signs and fencing shall be installed and maintained as follows, or the requirements of paragraph (3)(A) shall be met. (A) Warning signs shall be displayed at all entrances and at intervals of one hundred meters (three hundred and thirty feet) or less along the property line of the site or along the perimeter of the sections of the site where asbestos-containing waste material is deposited. The warning signs shall: (i) Be posted in a manner and location that a person can easily read the legend; (ii) Conform to the requirements of 51 cm X 36 cm (20" X 14 ") upright format signs specified in 29 CFR 1910.145(d)(4) and this paragraph; and (iii) Display the following legend in the lower panel with letter sizes and styles of a visibility at least equal to those specified in this paragraph: Asbestos Waste Disposal Site Do Not Create Dust Breathing Asbestos is Hazardous to Your Health Notation: 2.5 cm (1 inch) sans serif, gothic or block 2.5 cm (1 inch) sans serif, gothic or block 1.9 cm (3/4 inch) sans serif, gothic or block 14 point gothic Spacing between any two lines shall be at least equal to the height of the upper of the two lines; (B) The perimeter of the disposal site shall be fenced in a manner adequate to deter access by the general public; and (C) Upon request and supply of appropriate information, the director shall determine whether a fence or a natural barrier adequately deters access by the general public; (3) Rather than meet the no visible emission requirement of paragraph (1), at the end of each operating day, or at least once in every twenty-four-hour period while the site is in continuous operation, the asbestos-containing waste material that has been deposited at the site during the operating day or previous twenty-four hour period shall: (A) Be covered with at least fifteen centimeters (six inches) of compacted non-asbestos-containing material; or (B) Be covered with a resinous or petroleum-based dust suppression agent that effectively binds dust and controls wind erosion. The agent shall be used in the manner and frequency recommended for the particular dust by the dust suppression agent manufacturer to achieve and maintain dust control. Other equally effective dust suppression agents may be used upon prior approval by the director. For purposes of this paragraph, any used, spent, or other waste oil is not considered a dust suppression agent; (4) Rather than meet the no visible emission requirement of paragraph (1), use an alternative emissions control method that has received prior written approval by the director by submitting a written application to the director demonstrating that the following criteria are met: (A) The alternative method will control asbestos emissions equivalent to currently required methods; (B) The suitability of the alternative method for the intended application; (C) The alternative method will not violate other regulations; and (D) The alternative method will not result in increased water pollution, land pollution, or occupational hazards; (5) For all asbestos-containing waste material received, the owner or operator of the active waste disposal site shall: (A) Maintain waste shipment records, using a form similar to that shown in Figure 4 entitled "Waste Shipment Record", dated June 1, 1998, located at the end of this chapter, and include the following: (i) The name, address, and telephone number of the waste generator; (ii) The name, address, and telephone number of the transporter or transporters; (iii) The quantity of the asbestos- containing waste material in cubic meters or cubic yards; (iv) The presence of improperly enclosed or uncovered waste, or any asbestos-containing waste material not sealed in leak-tight containers. Report in writing to the department by the following working day, the presence of a significant amount of improperly enclosed or uncovered waste. Submit a copy of the waste shipment record along with the report; and (v) The date of the receipt; (B) As soon as possible and no longer than thirty days after receipt of the waste, send a copy of the signed waste shipment record to the waste generator; (C) Upon discovering a discrepancy between the quantity of waste designated on the waste shipment records and the quantity actually received, attempt to reconcile the discrepancy with the waste generator. If the discrepancy is not resolved within fifteen days after receiving the waste, immediately report in writing to the department, describing the discrepancy and attempts to reconcile it, and submit a copy of the waste shipment record along with the report; and (D) Retain a copy of all records and reports required by this paragraph for at least two years; (6) Maintain, until closure, records of the location, depth and area, and quantity in cubic meters (cubic yards) of asbestos- containing waste material within the disposal site on a map or diagram of the disposal area; (7) Upon closure, comply with all the provisions of section 11-501-13; (8) Submit to the director, upon closure of the facility, a copy of records of asbestos waste disposal locations and quantities; (9) Furnish upon request, and make available during normal business hours for inspection by the director, all records required pursuant to this section; and (10) Notify the director in writing at least forty-five days prior to excavating or otherwise disturbing any asbestos- containing waste material that has been deposited at a waste disposal site and is covered. If the excavation will begin on a date other than the one contained in the original notice, notice of the new start date shall be provided to the director at least ten working days before excavation begins and in no event shall excavation begin earlier than the date specified in the original notification. Include the following information in the notice: (A) The scheduled starting and completion dates; (B) The reason for disturbing the waste; (C) The procedures to be used to control emissions during the excavation, storage, transport, and ultimate disposal of the excavated asbestos- containing waste material. If deemed necessary, the director may require changes in the emission control procedures to be used; and (D) The location of any temporary storage site and the final disposal site. [Eff ] (Auth: HRS §342P-41) (Imp: 40 CFR Part 61.154) §11-501-17 Standard for operations that convert asbestos-containing waste material into non-asbestos (asbestos-free) material. Each owner or operator of an operation that converts RACM and asbestos-containing waste material into non-asbestos (asbestos-free) material shall: (1) Obtain the prior written approval of the director to construct the facility. To obtain approval, the owner or operator shall provide the director with the following information: (A) An application to construct; (B) The application shall include the following: (i) A description of waste feed handling and temporary storage; (ii) A description of process operating conditions; (iii) A description of the handling and temporary storage of the end product; and (iv) A description of the protocol to be followed when analyzing output materials by transmission electron microscopy; (C) Performance test protocol, including provisions for obtaining information required pursuant to paragraph (2); and (D) The director may require that a demonstration of the process be performed prior to approval of the application to construct. (2) Conduct a start-up performance test. Test results shall include: (A) A detailed description of the types and quantities of non-asbestos material, RACM, and asbestos- containing waste material processed, e.g., asbestos cement products, friable asbestos insulation, plaster, wood, plastic, wire, and similar materials. Test feed is to include the full range of materials that will be encountered in actual operation of the process; (B) Results of analyses, using polarized light microscopy, that document the asbestos content of the wastes processed; (C) Results of analyses, using transmission electron microscopy, that document that the output materials are free of asbestos. Samples for analysis are to be collected as eight-hour composite samples (one 200-gram or seven-ounce sample per hour), beginning with the initial introduction of RACM or asbestos- containing waste material and continuing until the end of the performance test; (D) A description of operating parameters, such as temperature and residence time, defining the full range over which the process is expected to operate to produce non-asbestos (asbestos-free) materials. Specify the limits for each operating parameter within which the process will produce non-asbestos (asbestos- free) materials; and (E) The length of the test; (3) During the initial ninety days of operation: (A) Continuously monitor and log the operating parameters identified during start-up performance tests that are intended to ensure the production of non-asbestos (asbestos-free) output material; (B) Monitor input materials to ensure that they are consistent with the test feed materials described during start-up performance tests in paragraph (2)(A); and (C) Collect and analyze samples, taken as ten-day composite samples (one 200- gram or seven-ounce sample collected every eight hours of operation) of all output material for the presence of asbestos. Composite samples may be for fewer than ten days. A Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) shall be used to analyze the output material for the presence of asbestos. During the initial ninety-day period, all output materials shall be stored on-site until analysis shows the material to be asbestos-free or disposed of as asbestos-containing waste material according to section 11-501-12; (4) After the initial ninety days of operation: (A) Continuously monitor and record the operating parameters identified during start-up performance testing and any subsequent performance testing. Any output produced during a period of deviation from the range of operating conditions established to ensure the production of non-asbestos (asbestos- free) output materials shall be: (i) Disposed of as asbestos- containing waste material according to section 11-501-12; (ii) Recycled as waste feed during process operation within the established range of operating conditions; or (iii) Stored temporarily on-site in a leak-tight container until analyzed for asbestos content. Any product material that is not asbestos-free shall be either disposed of as asbestos- containing waste material or recycled as waste feed to the process; and (B) Collect and analyze monthly composite samples (one 200-gram or seven-ounce sample collected every eight hours of operation) of the output material. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) shall be used to analyze the output material for the presence of asbestos; (5) Discharge no visible emissions to the outside air from any part of the operation, and use the methods specified by section 11-501-14 to clean emissions containing particulate asbestos material before they escape to, or are vented to the outside air; (6) Maintain records on-site and include the following: (A) Results of start-up performance testing and all subsequent performance testing, including operating parameters, feed characteristic, and analyses of output materials; (B) Results of the composite analyses required during the initial ninety days of operation pursuant to paragraph (3); (C) Results of the monthly composite analyses required pursuant to paragraph (4); (D) Results of continuous monitoring and logs of process operating parameters required pursuant to paragraphs (3) and (4); (E) The information on waste shipments received as required pursuant to section 11-501-16(5); (F) For output materials where no analyses were performed to determine the presence of asbestos, record the name and location of the purchaser or disposal site to which the output materials were sold or deposited, and the date of sale or disposal; and (G) Retain records required by this paragraph for at least two years; (7) Submit the following reports to the director: (A) A report for each analysis of product composite samples performed during the initial ninety days of operation; (B) A quarterly report, including the following information concerning activities during each consecutive three-month period: (i) Results of analyses of monthly product composite samples; (ii) A description of any deviation from the operating parameters established during performance testing, the duration of the deviation, and steps taken to correct the deviation; (iii) Disposition of any product produced during a period of deviation, including whether it was recycled, disposed of as asbestos-containing waste material, or stored temporarily on-site until analyzed for asbestos content; and (iv) The information on waste disposal activities as required in section 11-501-16(6); and (8) Non-asbestos (asbestos-free) output material is not subject to any of the provisions of this chapter. Output materials in which asbestos is detected, or output materials produced when the operating parameters deviated from those established during the start-up performance testing, unless shown by TEM analysis to be asbestos-free, shall be considered to be asbestos-containing waste and shall be handled and disposed of according to sections 11-501-12 and 11-501-16 or reprocessed while all of the established operating parameters are being met.
