§ 298.55. Analysis plan.
The owner or operator of a waste oil processing or rerefining facility shall develop and follow a written analysis plan describing the procedures that will be used to comply with the analysis requirements of § 298.53 (relating to rebuttable presumption for waste oil and flashpoint screening) and, if applicable, § 298.72 (relating to on-specification waste oil fuel). The owner or operator shall keep the plan at the facility.
(1) Rebuttable presumption for waste oil and flash point screening in § 298.53. At a minimum, the plan shall specify the following:
(i) Whether sample analyses or knowledge of the halogen content of the waste oil will be used to make this determination.
(ii) If sample analyses are used to make this determination:
(A) The sampling method used to obtain representative samples to be analyzed. A representative sample may be obtained using either:
(I) One of the sampling methods in 40 CFR Part 261, Appendix I (relating to representative sampling methods) incorporated by reference in § 261a.1 (relating to incorporation by reference, purpose and scope).
(II) A method shown to be equivalent under 40 CFR 260.20 and 260.21 (relating to general; and petitions for equivalent testing or analytical methods), incorporated by reference in § 260a.1 (relating to incorporated by reference, purpose, scope and applicablity).
(B) The frequency of sampling to be performed, and whether the analysis will be performed onsite or offsite.
(C) The methods used to analyze waste oil for the parameters specified in § 298.53.
(iii) The type of information that will be used to determine the halogen content of the waste oil.
(2) On-specification waste oil fuel in § 298.72. At a minimum, the plan shall specify the following if § 298.72 applies:
(i) Whether sample analyses or other information will be used to make this determination.
(ii) If sample analyses are used to make this determination:
(A) The sampling method used to obtain representative samples to be analyzed. A representative sample may be obtained using one of the following:
(I) One of the sampling methods in 40 CFR Part 261, Appendix I, incorporated by reference in § 261a.1.
(II) A method shown to be equivalent under 40 CFR 260.20 and 260.21 incorporated by reference in § 260a.1.
(B) Whether waste oil will be sampled and analyzed prior to or after any waste oil processing/rerefining.
(C) The frequency of sampling to be performed and whether the analysis will be performed onsite or offsite.
(D) The methods used to analyze waste oil for the parameters specified in § 298.72.
(iii) The type of information that will be used to make the onspecification waste oil fuel determination.
