“Bodily Injury” means (a) any injury that causes physical pain, illness or any impairment of physical condition; or (b) for the purposes
<br />of chapter 13 of this division, “bodily injury” means injury to the body, sickness or disease to any person, including death resulting
<br />from any of these.
<br />“Boiler” means an enclosed device using controlled flame combustion and having the following characteristics:
<br />(a)(1) the unit must have physical provisions for recovering and exporting thermal energy in the form of steam, heated fluids or
<br />heated gases; and
<br />(2) the unit's combustion chamber and primary energy recovery section(s) must be of integral design. To be of integral
<br />design, the combustion chamber and the primary energy recovery section(s) (such as waterfalls and superheaters) must be
<br />physically formed into one manufactured or assembled unit. A unit in which the combustion chamber and the primary
<br />energy recovery section(s) are joined only by ducts or connections carrying flue gas is not integrally designed; however,
<br />secondary energy recovery equipment (such as economizers or air preheaters) need not be physically formed into the same
<br />unit as the combustion chamber and the primary energy recovery section. The following units are not precluded from being
<br />boilers solely because they are not of integral design: process heaters (units that transfer energy directly to a process
<br />stream), and fluidized bed combustion units; and
<br />(3) while in operation, the unit must maintain a thermal energy recovery efficiency of at least 60 percent, calculated in terms
<br />of the recovered energy compared with the thermal value of the fuel; and
<br />(4) the unit must export and utilize at least 75 percent of the recovered energy, calculated on an annual basis. In this
<br />calculation, no credit shall be given for recovered heat used internally in the same unit. (Examples of internal use are the
<br />preheating of fuel or combustion air, and the driving of induced or forced draft fans or feedwater pumps); or
<br />(b) the unit is one which the USEPA Regional Administrator has determined, on a case-by-case basis, to be a boiler, after
<br />considering the standards in 40 CFR section 260.32.
<br />For the purposes of chapters 14 and 15, “Bottoms receiver” means a container or tank used to receive and collect the heavier
<br />bottoms fractions of the distillation feed stream that remain in the liquid phase.
<br />“Buffer zone” means an area of land which surrounds a hazardous waste facility and on which certain land uses and activities are
<br />restricted to protect the public health and safety and the environment from existing or potential hazards caused by the migration of
<br />hazardous waste.
<br />“Bulk container” means any container or container-like vehicle, other than a vessel or a barge, with a capacity greater than 119
<br />gallons (450 liters), which is used to transport hazardous waste(s), hazardous material(s), hazardous substance(s), or recyclable
<br />material(s) in bulk by air, highway, rail, or water, including, but not limited to, cargo tanks, vacuum trucks, roll-off bins, rail tank cars,
<br />and intermodal containers.
<br />“Bulking” means the process of consolidating various quantities of the same type of waste by placing them into a single, larger
<br />container.
<br />“Business” means the conduct of an activity and is not limited to a commercial or proprietary activity.
<br />“Business concern” means any sole proprietorship, corporation, association, firm, partnership, trust or other form of commercial
<br />organization.
<br />“By-product” is a material that is not one of the primary products of a production process and is not solely or separately produced by
<br />the production process. Examples are process residues such as slags or distillation column bottoms. The term does not include a co-
<br />product that is produced for the general public's use and is ordinarily used in the form it is produced by the process.
<br />“Carbon regeneration unit” means any enclosed thermal treatment device used to regenerate spent activated carbon.
<br />“Cargo tank” means any tank permanently attached to, or a structural part of, a vehicle; or any bulk liquid or compressed gas
<br />packaging that is not permanently attached to a vehicle and by reason of its size, construction or method of attachment is filled or
<br />emptied without removal from the vehicle. The term does not include tanks that furnish fuel for propulsion of motor vehicle, or
<br />auxiliary equipment on which they are installed or any packaging fabricated to cylinder specifications.
<br />“Cathode ray tube” or “CRT” means a vacuum tube or picture tube used to convert an electrical signal into a visual image.
<br />“Certification” means a statement of professional opinion based upon knowledge and belief.
<br />“Certified Unified Program Agency (CUPA)” means the agency certified pursuant to the requirements of Chapter 6.11 and Title 27,
<br />CCR.
<br />“Chemical of Potential Concern” or “COPC” means a chemical or chemical constituent at or from the facility that is present in soil,
<br />water or air, at a concentration that may pose a risk, and is potentially due to facility related activities or contamination. This definition
<br />is solely for purposes of the health risk assessment process pursuant to section 66270.14(e).
<br />“Chemical toilet” means any portable or permanently installed sanitation apparatus or system which utilizes a tank for toilet waste
<br />retention and into which a chemical toilet additive is added.
