Section 727.170?
Recordkeeping, Reporting, and Notifying
a)
Applicability of this Section. This Section applies to the owner and
operator of a facility that stores or non-thermally treats a hazardous waste
under a RCRA standardized permit pursuant to Subpart J of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 703,
except as provided in Section 727.100(a) (2). In addition, the owner or operator
must comply with the manifest requirements of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 722 whenever a
shipment of hazardous waste is initiated from the facility.
BOARD NOTE: Subsection (a) of this Section is derived from 40 CFR 267.70, as
added at 70 Fed. Reg. 53420 (Sep. 8, 2005).
b)
Use of the manifest system.
1)?
If a facility receives hazardous waste accompanied by a manifest, the
owner or operator, or its agent, must do each of the following:

 
A)
It must sign and date each copy of the manifest to certify that the
hazardous waste covered by the manifest was received;
B)
It must note any significant discrepancies in the manifest (as defined in
Section 727.170(c)(1)) on each copy of the manifest;
C)
It must immediately give the transporter at least one copy of the signed
manifest;
D)
Within 30 days after the delivery, it must send a copy of the manifest to
the generator; and
E)
It must retain at the facility a copy of each manifest for at least three
years from the date of delivery.
2)?
If a facility receives, from a rail or water (bulk shipment) transporter,
hazardous waste that is accompanied by a shipping paper containing all the
information required on the manifest (excluding the USEPA identification
numbers, generator's certification, and signatures), the owner or operator, or
its agent, must do each of the following:
A)
It must sign and date each copy of the manifest or shipping paper (if the
manifest has not been received) to certify that the hazardous waste covered by
the manifest or shipping paper was received;
B)
It must note any significant discrepancies (as defined in Section
727.170(c)(1)) in the manifest or shipping paper (if the manifest has not been
received) on each copy of the manifest or shipping paper;
BOARD NOTE: USEPA does not intend that the owner or operator of a facility
whose procedures pursuant to Section 727.110(d)(3) include waste analysis must
perform that analysis before signing the shipping paper and giving it to the
transporter. Section 727.170(c)(2), however, requires reporting an unreconciled
discrepancy discovered during later analysis.
C)
It must immediately give the rail or water (bulk shipment) transporter at
least one copy of the manifest or shipping paper (if the manifest has not been
received);
D)
Within 30 days after the delivery, it must send a copy of the signed and
dated manifest to the generator; however, if the manifest has not been received
within 30 days after delivery, the owner or operator, or its agent, must send a
copy of the shipping paper signed and dated to the generator; and
BOARD NOTE: Section 722.123(c) requires the generator to send three copies of
the manifest to the facility when hazardous waste is sent by rail or water (bulk
shipment).
E)
It must retain at the facility a copy of the manifest and shipping paper
(if signed in lieu of the manifest at the time of delivery) for at least three
years from the date of delivery.
3)?
Whenever a shipment of hazardous waste is initiated from a facility, the
facility owner or operator must comply with the requirements of 35 Ill. Adm.
Code 722.

 
BOARD NOTE: The provisions of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 724.134 are applicable to the
on-site accumulation of hazardous wastes by generators. Therefore, the
provisions of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 724.134 apply only to an owner or operator that
is shipping hazardous waste that it generated at that facility.
4)
?
Within three working days after the receipt of a shipment subject to
Subpart H of 35 Ill. Adm. Code 722 the owner or operator of the facility must
provide a copy of the tracking document bearing all required signatures to the
notifier, to the Agency, to the Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance,
Office of Compliance, Enforcement Planning, Targeting and Data Division (2222A),
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW., Washington,
DC 20460, and to competent authorities of all other concerned countries. The
original copy of the tracking document must be maintained at the facility for at
least three years from the date of signature.
BOARD NOTE: Subsection (b) of this Section is derived from 40 CFR 267.71, as
added at 70 Fed. Reg. 53420 (Sep. 8, 2005).
c)?
Manifest discrepancies.
1)?
Manifest discrepancies are differences between the quantity or type of
hazardous waste designated on the manifest or shipping paper, and the quantity
or type of hazardous waste a facility actually receives. Significant
discrepancies in quantity are either of the following:
A)
For bulk waste, variations greater than 10 percent in weight; or
B)
For batch waste, any variation in piece count, such as a discrepancy of
one drum in a truckload. Significant discrepancies in type are obvious
differences that can be discovered by inspection or waste analysis, such as
waste solvent substituted for waste acid, or toxic constituents not reported on
the manifest or shipping paper.
2)?
Upon discovering a significant discrepancy, the facility owner or operator
must attempt to reconcile the discrepancy with the waste generator or
transporter (e.g., with telephone conversations). If the discrepancy is not
resolved within 15 days after receiving the waste, the owner or operator must
immediately submit to the Agency a letter describing the discrepancy and
attempts to reconcile it, and a copy of the manifest or shipping paper at issue.
BOARD NOTE: Subsection (c) of this Section is derived from 40 CFR 207.72, ac
addcd at 70 Fcd. Rcg. 53420 (Scp. 0, 2005) (2007).267.72 (2007).
d)?
Retention of information.
1)

facility.
2)

it becomes available, and maintain the operating record until it closes the
facility:
A)

724.989, and 724.990;
G)
All closure cost estimates pursuant to Section 727.240(c);
