R 299.9605 General requirements for owners and operators.

Rule 605. (1) The owner or operator of a hazardous waste treatment, storage, or disposal facility shall comply with all the requirements of 40 CFR part 264, subpart B, unless otherwise specified in this rule. The owner or operator shall also provide copies of the notices required pursuant to 40 CFR 264.12(a) to the regional administrator. In addition to the notice requirements of 40 CFR 264.12, the owner or operator shall, before transferring ownership or operation of a facility during its operating life or during any required postclosure care period, notify the new owner or operator, in writing, of the requirements of this part and part 5 of these rules. (2) Hazardous waste transport vehicles and other containers leaving a designated facility must be empty of hazardous waste in accordance with the provisions of R 299.9207 or accompanied by a manifest that is prepared in accordance with the provisions of these rules. The owner or operator shall develop and implement a procedure for ensuring compliance with this subrule. If a transport vehicle or other container is not empty, then the owner or operator shall either take all steps required in the procedure to ensure that the provisions of R 299.9207 are complied with or ensure that the hazardous waste that remains in the vehicle or containers is accompanied by a manifest that is prepared in accordance with the provisions of these rules when leaving the designated facility. (3) The requirements of 40 CFR part 264, subpart B, do not apply to remediation waste management sites, other than those sites that are located at facilities that are subject to the licensing requirements under part 111 and these rules because the facility is also treating, storing, or disposing of hazardous wastes that are not remediation wastes, provided that the owners or operators of the remediation waste management sites comply with the requirements of 40 CFR 264.1(j). (4) The provisions of 40 CFR part 264, subpart B, and 264.1(j) are adopted by reference in R 299.11003. For the purposes of this adoption, the words "regional administrator" replace the word "director" and the word "§264.101" replace the word "R 299.9629."
