Section Env-Hw 509.03 - Full Quantity Generator Satellite Accumulation Provision

A full quantity generator may accumulate for greater than 90 days as much as 55 gallons of hazardous waste or one quart of acutely hazardous waste in containers at or near any point of generation where the wastes initially accumulate without having to obtain a standard permit or interim status and without having to comply with the container labeling and marking requirements of Env-Hw 509.02(d), the preparedness and prevention requirements of Env-Hw 509.02(a)(4), and the emergency posting requirements of Env-Hw 509.02(b), provided that:

(a) The hazardous waste containers are under the control of the operator of the process generating the waste;
(b) The operator of the process generating the hazardous waste has been trained as specified in Env-Hw 509.02(a)(2), except that, in lieu of the annual training requirements specified in 40 CFR 265.16, the training interval shall be 3 years;
(c) The generator meets the environmental and health requirements of Env-Hw 506;
(d) The generator meets the accumulation requirements of Env-Hw 507;
(e) The generator manages incompatible wastes pursuant to 40 CFR 265.177;
(f) At the time the containers are first used to accumulate wastes, the generator clearly labels or marks hazardous waste containers with:
(1) The words "hazardous waste"; and
(2) Words that identify the contents of the containers;
(g) For satellite accumulation areas that have accumulated greater than 10 gallons of hazardous waste, in lieu of the weekly inspections required by Env-Hw 509.02(a)(6), the generator inspects the containers at least monthly for leaks and for deterioration caused by corrosion and other factors;
(h) When the amount of hazardous waste in a satellite accumulation area reaches the accumulation limit specified in this section, the generator:
(1) Immediately labels or marks the hazardous waste containers with the following:
a. The date the accumulation limit was reached; and
b. All applicable EPA and NH hazardous waste numbers;
(2) Moves the hazardous waste to a designated central accumulation area within 3 days of reaching the accumulation limit; and
(3) Ships the hazardous waste off-site within 90 days of the date the accumulation limit was reached; and
(i) For the inspections required in (g), above, the generator remedies any leaks or deterioration discovered during an inspection on a schedule that prevents an environmental or human health hazard.
