(1) For new or replacement AST systems, only during the initial period ending 90 days after that petroleum product is first deposited into such system(s), a common carrier may accept, as adequate to meet this requirement, documentation that the owner or operator has a "temporary delivery authorization" (as defined at § 334.127(h) of this title) issued by the agency for the facility at which the new or replacement AST system(s) exists.(2) A common carrier delivering petroleum product into an AST system may observe a valid, current, original registration certificate (or temporary delivery authorization, if applicable), or a legible copy of the same.(b) Owner/Operator requirements. The owner and operator of ASTs regulated under this section must make available to a common carrier a valid, current Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) tank registration certificate (or TCEQ temporary delivery authorization, as applicable) before delivery of a petroleum product(s) into the AST(s) can be accepted. The bill of lading for the first delivery of petroleum product into any new or replacement AST system at the facility must be attached to the temporary delivery authorization for that facility.30 Tex.
