For the purpose of complying with this subsection, a tank for which the air emission control includes an enclosure, as opposed to a cover, must be in compliance with the enclosure and control device requirements of section 66265.1085(i), except as provided in section 66265.1083(c)(5).(8) A tank that has a process vent as defined in section 66260.10.(c) For the owner and operator of a facility subject to this article who has received a final permit under RCRA section 3005 prior to December 6, 1996, the following requirements apply: (1) The requirements of chapter 14, article 30 shall be incorporated into the permit when the permit is reissued in accordance with the requirements of 40 CFR 124.15 or reviewed in accordance with the requirements of section 66270.50(d).(2) Until the date when the permit is reissued in accordance with the requirements of 40 CFR 124.15 or reviewed in accordance with the requirements of section 66270.50(d), the owner and operator is subject to the requirements of this article.(d) The requirements of this article, except for the recordkeeping requirements specified in section 265.1090(i) of this article, are administratively stayed for a tank or a container used for the management of hazardous waste generated by organic peroxide manufacturing and its associated laboratory operations when the owner or operator of the unit meets all of the following conditions: (1) The owner or operator identifies that the tank or container receives hazardous waste generated by an organic peroxide manufacturing process producing more than one functional family of organic peroxides or multiple organic peroxides within one functional family, that one or more of these organic peroxides could potentially undergo self-accelerating thermal decomposition at or below ambient temperatures, and that organic peroxides are the predominant products manufactured by the process. For the purpose of meeting the conditions of this subsection, "organic peroxide" means an organic compound that contains the bivalent -O-O- structure and which may be considered to be a structural derivative of hydrogen peroxide where one or both of the hydrogen atoms has been replaced by an organic radical.(2) The owner or operator prepares documentation, in accordance with the requirements of section 66265.1090(i) explaining why an undue safety hazard would be created if air emission controls specified in sections 66265.1085 through 66265.1088 are installed and operated on the tanks and containers used at the facility to manage the hazardous waste generated by the organic peroxide manufacturing process or processes meeting the conditions of subsection (d)(1) of this section.(3) The owner or operator notifies the Department in writing that hazardous waste generated by an organic peroxide manufacturing process or processes meeting the conditions of subsection (d)(1) of this section are managed at the facility in tanks or containers meeting the conditions of subsection (d)(2) of this section. The notification shall state the name and address of the facility, and be signed and dated by an authorized representative of the facility owner or operator.Cal. Code Regs. Tit. 22, § 66265.1080
