recirculated on-site at a rate not to exceed 100,000 gallons per day,
and in accordance with the conditions and limitations specified in §330.177
of this title (relating to Leachate and Gas Condensate Recirculation);
and
(B) air emissions are authorized from leachate and/or
landfill gas condensate stored in tanks or disposed in evaporation
ponds that are lined in accordance with §330.331(b) of this title

of this title (relating to Technical Guidelines);
(8) fuel storage tanks, which must meet the following
requirements:
(A) storage and transfer of gasoline, diesel fuel,
or kerosene are authorized by this standard permit;
(B) permanent gasoline tanks must be located at least
500 feet from any off-property receptor;
(C) total annual throughput of gasoline for all tanks
may not exceed 20,000 gallons per year unless a vapor balance system
as defined in §115.10 of this title (relating to Definitions),
is used; and
(D) records of annual throughput must be maintained;
(9) tire shredding, which may be conducted at a rate
not to exceed 11 tons per hour. Records of the amount of tires shredded
per hour must be maintained;
(10) bioremediation pads, which must be operated such
that the pad must be located at least 165 feet from any off-property
receptor;
(11) the GCCS, which must be designed to route total
collected landfill gas to one of the following control devices:
(A) flares that satisfy requirements and are operated
in accordance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart WWW, as applicable;
(B) a landfill gas-fired stationary, reciprocating
internal combustion engine or a landfill gas-fired turbine not used
to generate electricity, that satisfies all of the requirements of §106.4(a)(1)
of this title (relating to Requirements for Permitting by Rule) and §106.512
of this title (relating to Stationary Engines and Turbines);
(C) a landfill gas-fired stationary electric generating
unit that satisfies all of the requirements of Chapter 116, Subchapter
F of this title;
(D) a landfill gas-fired boiler, heater, or other combustion
unit, not including stationary, reciprocating internal combustion
engines or turbines, that satisfies the maximum heat input and nitrous
oxide requirements of §106.4(a)(1) of this title and §106.183
of this title (relating to Boilers, Heaters, and Other Combustion
Devices) and applicable sections of Chapter 117 of this title (relating
to Control of Air Pollution from Nitrogen Compounds);
(E) a pollution control project that satisfies all
the requirements of §116.617 of this title (relating to State
Pollution Control Project Standard Permit). Any facility or process
added under this subsection is not considered a new production facility
for the purposes of §116.617 of this title; or
(F) a gas treatment system that processes the collected
gas to produce a product or by-product for subsequent sale or use.
All emissions from any atmospheric vent from the gas treatment system
must be subject to the requirements of 40 CFR §60.752(b)(2)(iii)(A)
or (B); and
(12) a temporary rock crusher that is used exclusively
for cell construction that satisfies all the requirements of the Air
Quality Standard Permit for Temporary Rock Crushers.
(b) If sampling of stacks and/or process vents are
required, the owner or operator must contact the appropriate regional
office and any other air pollution control program having jurisdiction
over the site prior to sampling to obtain the proper data forms and
procedures. All sampling and testing procedures must be approved by
the executive director and coordinated with the regional representatives
of the commission. The owner or operator is also responsible for providing
sampling facilities and conducting the sampling operations or contracting
with an independent sampling consultant.
(c) The facilities covered by this standard permit
may not be operated unless all air pollution emission capture and
abatement equipment is maintained in good working order and operating
properly during normal facility operations. Notification for emissions
events and unscheduled maintenance must be made in accordance with §101.201
of this title (relating to Emissions Event Reporting and Recordkeeping
Requirements) and §101.211 of this title (relating to Scheduled
Maintenance, Startup, and Shutdown Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements).
(d) Owners and/or operators must monitor and control
particulate matter as follows.
(1) All operations must be conducted in a manner so
as to minimize any particulate matter emissions at the landfill boundary.
No site-generated visible emissions, as determined by EPA Test Method
22, may not cross the property line for a period exceeding 30 seconds
