§ 67383.3. General Standards for Tank Systems.
(a) Except as provided in subsections (b), (c), and (d) of section 67383.1, any tank system that is identified as a hazardous waste pursuant to chapter 11 of this division, and that is destined to be disposed, reclaimed or closed in place shall be exempt from regulation under this division if the tank system is managed in accordance with all of the requirements of this section:
(1) Prior to initiating cleaning, cutting, dismantling, or excavation of a tank system, the owner or operator of the tank system shall notify the appropriate CUPA in writing of the information specified below. If there is no CUPA, then the owner or operator shall notify the LIA and send a copy to the authorized agency. However, information already provided to the CUPA, authorized agency or LIA pursuant to compliance with another statutory or regulatory requirement need not be resubmitted:
(2) The tank, upon inspection, shall be visually free of product, sludge, scale (thin, flaky residual of tank contents), rinseate and debris, except that residual staining caused by soil and waste consisting of light shadows, slight streaks, or minor discolorations, and soil and waste in cracks, crevices, and pits may be present.
(B) If the tank held a hazardous material or hazardous waste that had the potential to generate flammable vapors, and the tank was cut onsite, a combustible gas indicator (CGI) which is properly calibrated shall be used to measure the concentration of flammable vapor at the top, center and bottom of the cut tank. The concentration of flammable vapor shall be zero percent of the Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) for the material that was contained in the tank; and the oxygen concentration shall be the same as that of the ambient air, approximately 20.8%;
(C) If the tank held a hazardous material or hazardous waste that had the potential to generate flammable vapors, is intended to be transported, and was not cut onsite, the tank shall be cleaned and inerted using one of the methods listed in subsection (b), inspected pursuant to subsection (e)(2)(A)2 and transported in accordance with the provisions of section 67383.5. (The tank shall be inspected to ensure that it meets the conditions of paragraph (2) of this subsection before it is inerted.)
(g) The certificate issued pursuant to subsection (f) of this section shall be submitted on the Hazardous Waste Tank Closure Certification page of the Unified Program Consolidated Form (x/99)), Appendix E of Title 27 CCR, or an alternative version or a computer generated facsimile as allowed pursuant to Title 27, CCR, Sections 15610 and 15620.
