- a) The application must address the relevant criteria contained in Section 720.131, 720.132, or 720.134, as applicable.
- b) This subsection (b) corresponds with 40 CFR 260.33(b), which pertains to the USEPA procedure for review of petitions. This statement maintains structural consistency with USEPA rules.
c) Changed Circumstances.
- 1) If a change in circumstances that affects how a hazardous secondary material meets the relevant criteria contained in Section 720.131, 720.132, or 720.134 upon which a solid waste, verified facility, or non-waste determination has been based, the applicant must submit a description of the change in circumstances to the Board as a petition for adjusted standard that requests modifying the previously granted solid waste, boiler, or non-waste determination under which the petitioner operates or, in the alternative, a Board order that no such modification is necessary.
2) The Board will do the following:
- A) determine, based on the record, whether the hazardous secondary material continues to meet the relevant criteria that justify exclusion from definition as solid waste; and
- B) issue an appropriate order granting or denying the petition.
- d) A solid waste, verified facility, boiler, or non-waste determination is effective for a fixed term not to exceed 10 years, except as provided in this subsection (d). No later than six months prior to the end of this term, facilities must re-apply for a solid waste, verified facility, boiler, or non-waste determination. If a facility owner or operator re-applies for a solid waste, verified facility, boiler, or non-waste determination no later than six months prior to expiration of a solid waste, verified facility, boiler, or non-waste determination, the facility may continue to operate under an expired solid waste, boiler, or non-waste determination until receiving a decision on the re-application from the Board.
- e) A facility that receives a solid waste, boiler, or non-waste determination must provide notification, as required by Section 720.142.
The Board will use the procedures of Subpart D of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 104 for determining whether a material is a solid waste, for determining that a hazardous secondary material is managed at a verified facility, for determining whether a particular enclosed flame combustion device is a boiler, or for evaluating an application for a non-waste determination.
