§ 17409.5.9. Alternatives to Measurement Protocols.
(a) The EA may approve, with concurrence by the Department, alternative measurement protocols to the requirements of Sections 17409.5.2, 17409.5.3, 17409.5.4, 17409.5.5, 17409.5.7, and 17409.5.8, as long as they will still ensure that the measurements will be as accurate. The Department shall concur with the EA approval if it finds that the alternative measurement protocols will ensure that the measurements will be as accurate. For the purposes of this section, alternative measurement protocols may include, but are not limited to, measurements made with a different sampling frequency and/or weight than those specified in this article.
(c) The EA may approve, with written concurrence by the Department, a substitute to certain requirements to sample and measure specific types of organic waste that are designated for an organic waste recovery activity with a quality standard imposed on the operator by the person, entity, or solid waste facility or operation accepting that organic waste type as specified in this subdivision. The Department shall concur with the EA approval if it verifies that there is a quality standard imposed on the operator by the person, entity, or solid waste facility or operation accepting that organic waste type as specified in this subdivision and that the standard meets the requirements in Subdivision (c)(1)(A) through (G), below.
(d) An operator that is authorized to substitute a quality standard for sampling requirements as specified in Subdivision (c) for a specific type of recovered organic waste type shall apply the weight of incompatible materials as measured in the quality standard to total weight of that organic waste type for the purposes of determining organic waste recovery efficiency as specified in Section 17409.5.1.
