0 <br />(A) There has been an equipment or mechanical failure during the conduct of a treatability study <br />rendering the treatability study sample unsuited for study. <br />(B) There is a need to repeat a portion of a previously conducted treatability study. <br />(C) There is a need to study and analyze alternative techniques within a treatability study and these <br />multiple techniques required greater total sample size. <br />(D) The treatability study design cannot produce verifiable results without greater quantities of a <br />sample. <br />(6) A generator applying for an exemption pursuant to subdivision (e)(5) shall submit all of the <br />following information in writing to the department: <br />(A) The reason why the generator or agent of the generator requires an additional quantity of a <br />treatability study sample for the treatability study. <br />(B) The quantity of the treatability study sample for which the exemption is requested. <br />(C) Documentation accounting for all samples of treatability study samples from the waste stream that <br />have previously been sent for, or undergone, treatability studies, including the dates of each previous <br />treatability study sample, the quantity of each previous treatability study sample, the laboratory or <br />testing facility to which each treatability study sample was shipped, what treatability studies were <br />conducted on each treatability study sample shipped, and the results of each treatability study. <br />(D) If the generator cites paragraph (C) of subdivision (e)(5) as the basis for the exemption, a <br />description of the proposed technique or techniques to be evaluated. <br />(E) If the generator cites paragraph (A) of subdivision (e)(5) as the basis for the exemption, <br />information regarding the reasons for the failure or breakdown and what procedures or improvements 10 <br />have been made to protect against further breakdowns. <br />(f) Samples Undergoing Treatability Studies at Laboratories and Testing Facilities; <br />(1) Except as provided in subdivision (f)(2), Chapter 6.5 of Division 20 of the Health and Safety Code, <br />and division 4.5 of this title, do not apply to any treatability study sample undergroing a treatability <br />study, and those activities of the laboratory or testing facility, including transportable treatment units, <br />conducting a treatability study, that are activities exclusively devoted to, and in support of, the <br />treatability study conducted on a treatability study sample, if all of the following conditions are met: <br />(A) If a group of two or more transportable treatment units are located at the same site, the <br />requirements specified in subdivision (f)(1) apply to the entire group of transportable treatment units <br />collectively as if the group were one unit. <br />(B) Not less than 45 days before conducting the treatability study, the facility notifies the department <br />in writing, that it intends to conduct a treatability study pursuant to this subsection. <br />(C) The laboratory or testing facility conducting the treatability study has an Environmental Protection <br />Agency identification number. <br />(D) Not more than a total of 250 kg of treatability study samples are subjected to initiation of <br />treatment in all treatability studies in any single day. <br />(E) The quantity of treatability study samples stored at the facility for the purpose of evaluation in <br />treatability studies does not exceed 400 kg, the total of which may include not more than 200 kg of <br />soil, water, or debris contaminated with extremely hazardous waste or 1 kg of extremely hazardous <br />waste. This quantity limitation does not include either of the following: <br />
