Hazardous Waste Tank System Requirements for LQGs and Onsite Treatment Facilities — Page 5 of 14 <br />• Visual monitoring during hours of operation. <br />8. Secondary Containment Exceptions — The following equipment is exempted from 22 CCR secondary <br />containment provisions provided that the equipment is visually inspected for leaks on a daily basis:° <br />➢ Aboveground piping runs (except for valves, flanges, joints, and connections); 122CCR §66265.193(0(1)l <br />➢ Welded flanges, welded joints, and welded connections; (22CCR §66265.193(Q(2)1 <br />➢ Sealless or magnetic coupling pumps and sealless valves; 122CCR §66265.193(q(3)I <br />➢ Pressurized aboveground piping systems with automatic shut-off devices (e.g., excess flow check <br />valves, flow metering shutdown devices, loss of pressure actuated shut-off devices). 122CCR §66265.193(n(4)I <br />Tank systems used to transfer, store or treat hazardous waste containing no free liquids and that are situated <br />inside a building with an impermeable floor are exempted from the requirements of 22 CCR §66265.193.' <br />122CCR §66265.190(a)I <br />Tank systems and sumps that serve as part of a secondary containment system to collect or contain releases <br />of hazardous wastes are exempted from the requirements of 22 CCR §66265.193(a). 122CCR §66265.190(b)1 <br />Unless otherwise required by federal law, the requirements of 22 CCR §66265.193 do not apply to <br />Conditional Exemption (CE) or Conditionally Authorized (CA) on-site treatment tank system ancillary <br />equipment if: <br />➢ The equipment's integrity is attested to pursuant to 22 CCR §66265.191 every 2 years from the date that <br />retrofitting requirements would otherwise apply; InSC §§252003(c)(4)(A) or 25201.5(e)(1)i or <br />➢ It is not feasible for the equipment to undergo integrity testing and the operator implements the best <br />feasible leak detection measures determined to be sufficient by DTSC, and those measures do not reveal <br />any leaks. (nsC §§252003(e)(4)(11)(a) and 252013(e)(2)(C)l <br />Any CE or CA tank system ancillary equipment found to leak must be retrofitted by the operator to meet <br />full secondary containment standards. pisc §§252003(e)(4)(n)(ui) and 25201s(e)(2)(C)1 <br />D. Spill Prevention and Overfill Prevention Controls <br />Tanks must be provided with the following: 122 CCR §66265.194(b)I <br />❑ Spill prevention controls (e.g., check valves, dry disconnect couplings); <br />❑ Overfill prevention controls (e.g., level -sensing devices, high level alarms, automatic feed cutoff, <br />bypass to a standby tank); <br />❑ In the case of uncovered tanks, at least 2 feet of freeboard to prevent overtopping by wave or wind <br />action or by precipitation .6 <br />r Local ordinances or codes may require secondary containment of these systems even if it is not required by 22 CCR. Check with <br />your CUPA. <br />° These inspections must be documented as required by 22 CCR §66265.195(c). <br />s To demonstrate the absence or presence of free liquids in the waste, Method 9095 (Paint Filter Liquids Test) as described in "Test <br />Methods for Evaluating Solid Wastes, Physical/Chemical Methods" (EPA Publication No. SW -846, 3rd edition and Updates <br />incorporated by reference in §66260.11) must be used. <br />6 This requirement does not apply if the tank is equipped with a containment structure (e.g., dike, trench, etc.), drainage control <br />system, or diversion structure (e.g., standby tank) with a capacity equal to or greater than the volume of the top 2 feet of the tank. <br />UN -047 - 5/14 "w.unidocs.org 02/01/07 <br />
