| (1) The following information is required for each
active Class I hazardous waste injection well at a facility seeking
an underground injection control permit:
(A) dates well was operated; and
(B) specification of all wastes that have been injected
in the well, if available.
(2) The owner or operator of any facility containing
one or more active hazardous waste injection wells must submit all
available information pertaining to any release of hazardous waste
or constituents from any active hazardous waste injection well at
the facility.
(3) The owner or operator of any facility containing
one or more active Class I hazardous waste injection wells must conduct
such preliminary site investigations as are necessary to determine
whether a release is occurring, has occurred, or is likely to have
occurred.
(f) Interim Status under the Resource Conservation
Recovery Act (RCRA) for Class I hazardous waste injection wells. The
minimum state standards which define acceptable injection of hazardous
waste during the period of interim status are set out in this chapter.
The issuance of an underground injection well permit does not automatically
terminate RCRA interim status. A Class I well's interim status does,
however, automatically terminate upon issuance of a RCRA permit for
that well, or upon the well's receiving a RCRA permit-by-rule under §335.47
of this title (relating to Special Requirements for Persons Eligible
for a Federal Permit by Rule). Thus, until a Class I well injecting
hazardous waste receives a RCRA permit or RCRA permit-by-rule, the
well's interim status requirements are the applicable requirements
imposed under this chapter, including any requirements imposed in
the underground injection control permit.
