` _ t c. 2. Compliance With California Environmental Quality Act The Department of Health Services (hereafter the Department) has determined that this project is exempt from the California Environ- mental Quality Act as per Section 15301, Title 14, California Administrative Code. GENERAL CONDITIONS 1. Effect of Permit The owner or operator is permitted to store and treat hazardous wastes in accordance with the conditions of this permit. Any treatment or storage of hazardous wastes not authorized in this permit is prohibited. Compliance with this permit constitutes compliance, for purposes of enforcement, with the provisions of the California Health and Safety Code, including Chapter 6.5, Division 20, and with the Minimum Standards for Management of Hazardous and Extremely Hazardous Wastes (Chapter 30, Division 4, Title 22, California Administrative Code) . Issuance of this permit does not convey property rights of any sort or any exclusive privilege, nor does it authorize any injury to persons or property, any invasion of other private rights, or any infringement of federal, state, or local law or regulations. Compliance with the terms of this permit does not constitute a defense to any action brought under any other law governing protection of public health or the environment for any imminent and substantial endangerment to human health or the environment. 2. Permit Actions This permit may be modified, revoked and reissued, or terminated for cause as specified in Sections 270.41, 270.42, and 270.43, Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) , or at the discretion of the Department in order to protect public health or the environ- ment, or upon violation of any terms of the Department's Director's Order and the Settlement Agreement with the owner or operator, both dated July 19, 1984. A new facility permit condition or a modification of an existing facility permit condition shall become effective on the date that written notice of such change is received by the owner or operator. The filing of a request for a permit modification, revocation and reissuance, or termination or the modification of planned changes or anticipated noncompliance on any part of the owner or operator does not stay the applicability or enforceability of any permit condition. 3. Need to Halt or Reduce Activity It shall not be a defense for the owner or operator in an enforce- ment action that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the conditions of this permit. -2-
