NR 665.1087(5)(a)(a) A container using Container Level 3 controls is one of the following:
NR 665.1087(5)(a)1.1. A container that is vented directly through a closed-vent system to a control device according to par. (b) 2.
NR 665.1087(5)(a)2.2. A container that is vented inside an enclosure which is exhausted through a closed-vent system to a control device according to par. (b) 1. and 2.
NR 665.1087(5)(b)(b) Meet the following requirements, as applicable to the type of air emission control equipment selected:
NR 665.1087(5)(b)1.1. Design and operate the container enclosure according to the criteria for a permanent total enclosure in Method 204—“Criteria for and Verification of a Permanent or Temporary Total Enclosure” in appendix M of 40 CFR part 51, incorporated by reference in s. NR 660.11. The enclosure may have permanent or temporary openings to allow worker access, passage of containers through the enclosure by conveyor or other mechanical means, entry of permanent mechanical or electrical equipment or direct airflow into the enclosure. Perform the verification procedure for the enclosure in Section 8 of Method 204 initially when the enclosure is first installed and, thereafter, annually.
NR 665.1087(5)(b)2.2. Design and operate the closed-vent system and control device according to s. NR 665.1088.
NR 665.1087(5)(c)(c) Safety devices, as defined in s. NR 665.1081, may be installed and operated as necessary on any container, enclosure, closed-vent system or control device used to comply with par. (a).
NR 665.1087(5)(d)(d) If using Container Level 3 controls according to this subchapter, inspect and monitor the closed-vent systems and control devices as specified in s. NR 665.1088.
NR 665.1087(5)(e)(e) If using Container Level 3 controls according to this subchapter, prepare and maintain the records specified in s. NR 665.1090 (4).
NR 665.1087(5)(f)(f) Transfer hazardous waste in or out of a container using Container Level 3 controls in such a manner as to minimize exposure of the hazardous waste to the atmosphere, to the extent practical, considering the physical properties of the hazardous waste and good engineering and safety practices for handling flammable, ignitable, explosive, reactive or other hazardous materials. Examples of container loading procedures that meet this paragraph include using a submerged-fill pipe or other submerged-fill method to load liquids into the container, a vapor-balancing system or a vapor-recovery system to collect and control the vapors displaced from the container during filling operations, or a fitted opening in the top of a container through which the hazardous waste is filled and subsequently purging the transfer line before removing it from the container opening.
NR 665.1087(6)(6)Hazardous materials packaging requirements. For the purpose of compliance with sub. (3) (a) 1. or (4) (a) 1., use containers that meet the applicable U.S. department of transportation (DOT) regulations on packaging hazardous materials for transportation as follows:
NR 665.1087(6)(a)(a) The container meets the applicable requirements in 49 CFR part 178—Specifications for Packaging or part 179—Specifications for Tank Cars.
NR 665.1087(6)(b)(b) Hazardous waste is managed in the container according to the applicable requirements in 49 CFR part 107, subpart B—Exemptions; 49 CFR part 172—Hazardous Materials Table, Special Provisions, Hazardous Materials Communications, Emergency Response Information, and Training Requirements; 49 CFR part 173—Shippers—General Requirements for Shipments and Packages and 49 CFR part 180—Continuing Qualification and Maintenance of Packagings.
NR 665.1087(6)(c)(c) For the purpose of complying with this subchapter, no exceptions to the 49 CFR part 178 or 179 regulations are allowed except as provided for in par. (d).
NR 665.1087(6)(d)(d) For a lab pack that is managed according to 49 CFR part 178 for the purpose of complying with this subchapter, an owner or operator may comply with the exceptions for combination packagings in 49 CFR 173.12(b).
NR 665.1087(7)(7)Procedure for determining no detectable organic emissions. To determine compliance with the no detectable organic emissions requirements of sub. (4) (a) 2., use the procedure in s. NR 665.1084 (4) as follows:
NR 665.1087(7)(a)(a) Check each potential leak interface (i.e., a location where organic vapor leakage could occur) on the container, its cover and associated closure devices, as applicable to the container. Potential leak interfaces that are associated with containers include, but are not limited to, the interface of the cover rim and the container wall, the periphery of any opening on the container or container cover and its associated closure device and the sealing seat interface on a spring-loaded, pressure-relief valve.
NR 665.1087(7)(b)(b) Perform the test when the container is filled with a material having a volatile organic concentration representative of the range of volatile organic concentrations for the hazardous wastes expected to be managed in this type of container. During the test, secure the container cover and closure devices in the closed position.
NR 665.1087(8)(8)Procedure for determining a container to be vapor-tight. To determine compliance with the vapor-tight container requirement of sub. (4) (a) 3., use the following procedure:
NR 665.1087(8)(a)(a) Perform the test according to Method 27 in appendix A of 40 CFR part 60, incorporated by reference in s. NR 660.11.
NR 665.1087(8)(b)(b) Use a pressure measurement device that has a precision of ±2.5 mm water and is capable of measuring above the pressure at which the container is to be tested for vapor tightness.
NR 665.1087(8)(c)(c) If the test results determined by Method 27 indicate that the container sustains a pressure change less than or equal to 750 Pascals within 5 minutes after it is pressurized to a minimum of 4,500 Pascals, the container is vapor-tight.

NR 665.1088(1)(1)This section applies to each closed-vent system and control device installed and operated by the owner or operator to control air emissions according to the standards of this subchapter.
NR 665.1088(2)(2)The closed-vent system shall meet all of the following requirements:
NR 665.1088(2)(a)(a) The closed-vent system shall route the gases, vapors and fumes emitted from the hazardous waste in the waste management unit to a control device that meets sub. (3).

NR 665.1088(2)(c)(c) In the case when the closed-vent system includes bypass devices that could be used to divert the gas or vapor stream to the atmosphere before entering the control device, equip each bypass device with either a flow indicator as specified in subd. 1. or a seal or locking device as specified in subd. 2. For the purpose of complying with this paragraph, low leg drains, high point bleeds, analyzer vents, open-ended valves or lines, spring-loaded pressure relief valves and other fittings used for safety purposes are not bypass devices.
