<br />6264 175 Containment.
<br />(a) Container ans er anstorage areas shall have a containment sys-
<br />tem that is designed and operated in accordance with subsection (b) of
<br />this section.
<br />(b) A containment system shall be designed and operated as follows:
<br />(1) a base shall underlie the containers which is free of cracks or gaps
<br />and is sufficiently impervious to contain leaks, spills, and accumulated
<br />precipitation until the collected material is detected and removed;
<br />(2) the base shall be sloped or the containment system shall be other-
<br />wise designed and operated to drain and remove liquids resulting from
<br />leaks, spills, or precipitation, unless the containers are elevated or are
<br />otherwise protected from contact with accumulated liquids;
<br />(3) the containment system shall have sufficient capacity to contain
<br />precipitation from at least a 24-hour, 25 -year storm plus 10 % of the ag-
<br />gregate volume of all containers or the volume of the largest container,
<br />whichever is greater. Containers that do not contain free liquids need not
<br />be considered in this determination;
<br />(4) run-on into the containment system shall be prevented unless the
<br />collection system has sufficient excess capacity in addition to that re-
<br />quired in subsection (b)(3) of this section to contain any run-on which
<br />might enter the system; and
<br />(5) spilled or leaked waste and accumulated precipitation shall be re-
<br />moved from the sump or collection area in as timely a manner as is neces-
<br />sary to prevent overflow of the collection system. If the collected materi-
<br />al is a hazardous waste under chapter 11 of this division, it shall be
<br />managed as a hazardous waste in accordance with all applicable require-
<br />ments of chapters 12 through 16 of this division. If the collected material
<br />is discharged through a point source to waters of the United States, it is
<br />subject to the requirements of section 402 of the Federal Clean Water
<br />A as amended (33 U.S.C. section 1342).
<br />(c The owner or operator shall submit to the Department with the
<br />a kation for a hazardous waste facility permit a written statement
<br />signed by an independent, qualified professional engineer, registered in
<br />California, that indicates that the containment system is suitably de-
<br />signed to achieve the requirements of this section.
<br />(d) Storage areas that store containers holding only hazardous wastes
<br />that do not contain free liquids need not have a containment system as
<br />specified by subsection (b) of this section, except as provided by subsec-
<br />tion (e) of this section or provided that:
<br />(1) The storage area is sloped or is otherwise designed and operated
<br />to collect and remove liquid resulting from precipitation, or
<br />(2) The containers are elevated or are otherwise protected from contact
<br />with accumulated liquid.
<br />(e) Storage areas that store containers holding the following wastes
<br />listed that do not contain free liquids must have a containment system as
<br />specified by subsection (b) of this section: F020, F021, F022, F023,
