Register July 2006 No. 607, eff. 8-1-06. NR 670.066NR 670.066 Licenses for boilers and industrial furnaces burning hazardous waste. When an owner or operator of a cement kiln, lightweight aggregate kiln, solid fuel boiler, or hydrochloric acid production furnace becomes subject to hazardous waste licensing requirements after October 12, 2005 or when an owner or operator of an existing cement kiln, lightweight aggregate kiln, solid fuel boiler, or hydrochloric acid production furnace demonstrates compliance with the air emission standards and limitations in 40 CFR part 63, subpart EEE (for instance, by conducting a comprehensive performance test and submitting a notification of compliance under 40 CFR 63.1207 (j) and 63.1210(b) documenting compliance with all applicable requirements of 40 CFR part 63, subpart EEE), the requirements of this section do not apply. The requirements of this section do apply, however, if the department determines certain provisions are necessary to ensure compliance with s. NR 666.102 (5) (a) and (b) 3. if the owner or operator elects to comply with s. NR 670.235 (1) (a) 1. to minimize emissions of toxic compounds from startup, shutdown and malfunction events; or if the facility is an area source and the owner or operator elects to comply with ss. NR 666.105, 666.106, and 666.107 standards and associated requirements for particulate matter, hydrogen chloride, and chlorine gas, and non-mercury metals; or the department determines certain the provisions apply, on a case-by-case basis, for purposes of information collection according to ss. NR 670.010 (11) and (13) and 670.032 (2) (b) and (c). NR 670.066(1)(1) General. Owners and operators of new boilers and industrial furnaces, those not operating under the interim license standards of s. NR 666.103, are subject to subs. (2) to (6). Boilers and industrial furnaces operating under the interim license standards of s. NR 666.103 are subject to sub. (7).

A license for a new boiler or industrial furnace shall specify appropriate conditions for the following operating periods: NR 670.066(2)(a)(a) Pretrial burn period. For the period beginning with initial introduction of hazardous waste and ending with initiation of the trial burn, and only for the minimum time required to bring the boiler or industrial furnace to a point of operational readiness to conduct a trial burn, not to exceed 720 hours operating time when burning hazardous waste, the department shall establish in the pretrial burn period of the license conditions, including but not limited to, allowable hazardous waste feed rates and operating conditions. The department may extend the duration of this operational period once, for up to 720 additional hours, at the request of the applicant when good cause is shown. The license may be modified to reflect the extension according to s. NR 670.042. NR 670.066(2)(a)1.1. Applicants shall submit a statement, with the feasibility and plan of operation report, that suggests the conditions necessary to operate in compliance with the standards of ss.

The department will review this statement and any other relevant information submitted with the feasibility and plan of operation report and specify requirements for this period sufficient to meet the performance standards of ss. NR 666.104 to 666.107 based on the department’s engineering judgment. NR 670.066(2)(b)(b) Trial burn period. For the duration of the trial burn, the department shall establish conditions in the license for the purposes of determining feasibility of compliance with the performance standards of ss. NR 666.104 to 666.107 and determining adequate operating conditions under s. NR 666.102 (5). Applicants shall propose a trial burn plan, prepared under sub. (3), to be submitted with the feasibility and plan of operation report. NR 670.066(2)(c)1.1. For the period immediately following completion of the trial burn, and only for the minimum period sufficient to allow sample analysis, data computation and submission of the trial burn results by the applicant, and review of the trial burn results and modification of the facility license by the department to reflect the trial burn results, the department will establish the operating requirements most likely to ensure compliance with the performance standards of ss. NR 666.104 to 666.107 based on the department’s engineering judgment. NR 670.066(2)(c)2.2. Applicants shall submit a statement, with the feasibility and plan of operation report, that identifies the conditions necessary to operate during this period in compliance with the performance standards of ss.
