Operator transferred used paper oil filters into one 55-gallon container reserved for used paper oil filters. REGULATION GUIDANCE: A container holding hazardous waste shall always be closed during transfer and storage, except when it is necessary to add or remove waste. Minor violation 2: OBSERVATION: Containers of used metal oil filters out of compliance with the storage rules were observed on-site. The following used metal oil filter containers were in the hazardous waste storage area: -One 55-gallon container with used metal oil filters observed with no accumulation start date. Operator filled in accumulation start date using most recent disposal receipt for reference. REGULATION GUIDANCE: (b) "used oil filters" are defined as filters which contain a residue of used oil and which are exempt from regulation as a hazardous waste under the scrap metal provision found in federal law. (c) Used oil filters that meet the conditions of subsection (b)of this section and are managed and recycled in compliance with the following requirements shall not be regulated as hazardous waste. (1)The filters are drained of free-flowing used oil. For the purposes of this subsection, free-flowing is defined as a continuous stream of oil exiting the filter when the filter is inverted. Oil exiting drop by drop is not considered to be free-flowing. However, if the filter is equipped with a device (such as a rubber flap located just inside the filter opening)which impedes the drainage of used oil from the filter, that device shall be manipulated to allow the oil to exit the filter freely, or the filter punctured, crushed, opened, drained, or otherwise handled in a manner that will allow the used oil to exit the filter. (2)The drained used oil filters are transported for purposes of metal reclamation to any of the following: (A)A smelter or other scrap metal processor where they are recycled or; (B)A storage facility or consolidation facility that subsequently transfers the filters to a facility described in paragraph (A)or(C)of this subsection or; (C)A municipal solid waste incinerator for energy recovery, if the residual casings are subsequently transferred to a facility described in paragraph (A)of this subsection, or to a storage or consolidation facility that subsequently transfers the residual casings to a facility described in paragraph (A)of this subsection. (3)The drained used oil filters are accumulated, stored, and transferred in a closed, rainproof container that is capable of containing any used oil that may separate from the filters placed inside. Drums of used oil filters shall be sealed during transfer so that used oil will not spill out when they are laid upon their sides. Drums shall be secured as a load to prevent movement or tipping during transfer. Containers shall be labelled as "drained used oil filters" (not as hazardous waste)and show initial date of accumulation or receipt on each container of filters. (4) Storage of less than one ton of used oil filters shall be limited to one year. Storage of one ton or more of used oil filters is limited to 180 days. (5) Persons generating, transporting, or receiving used oil filters shall use a bill of lading to record the transfer of FA0012368 PR0528544 SCO01 08/12/2020 EHD 22-02 Rev.8/11/2020 Page 11 of 12 Large Quantity Hazardous Waste Generator OIR 1868 E.
