Determination of the VOHAP concentration is made using the procedures specified in [§ 63.7943](/cfr/40/63.7943.md). - (3) If the process vent is also subject to another subpart under 40 CFR part [61](/cfr/40/part61.md) or [40](/cfr/40/part40.md) CFR [part 63](/cfr/40/part63.md), you control emissions of the HAP listed in Table 1 of this subpart from the affected process vent in compliance with the standards specified in the applicable subpart. This means you are complying with all applicable emissions limitations and work practice standards under the other subpart (e.g., you install and operate the required air pollution controls or have implemented the required work practice to reduce HAP emissions to levels specified by the applicable subpart). This provision does not apply to any exemption of the affected source from the emissions limitations and work practice standards allowed by the other applicable subpart. - (c) A process vent that meets the exemption requirements in paragraphs [(c)(1)](#c-1) and [(2)](#c-2) of this section is exempted from the requirements in [paragraph (b)](#b) of this section. - (1) The process vent stream exiting the process vent meets the conditions in either paragraph [(c)(1)(i)](#c-1-i) or [(ii)](#c-1-ii) of this section. - (i) The process vent stream flow rate is less than 0.005 cubic meters per minute (m 3/min) at standard conditions (as defined in [40 CFR 63.2](/cfr/40/63.2.md)); or - (ii) The process vent stream flow rate is less than 6.0 m 3/min at standard conditions (as defined in [40 CFR 63.2](/cfr/40/63.2.md)) and the total concentration of HAP listed in Table 1 of this subpart is less than 20 parts per million by volume (ppmv). - (2) You must demonstrate that the process vent stream meets the applicable exemption conditions in [paragraph (c)(1)](#c-1) of this section using the procedures specified in [§ 63.694(m)](/cfr/40/63.694.md?p=m). You must prepare and maintain documentation at your facility to support your determination of the process vent stream flow rate. This documentation must include identification of each process vent exempted under this paragraph and the test results used to determine the process vent stream flow rate and total HAP concentration, as applicable to the exemption conditions for your process vent.

Once the VOHAP concentration for a remediation material has been determined to be less than 500 ppmw, all remediation material management units downstream from the point of determination managing this material meet the requirements of this paragraph unless a remediation process is used that concentrates all, or part of, the remediation material being managed in the unit such that the VOHAP concentration of the material could increase. Any free product returned to the manufacturing process (e.g., recovered oil returned to a storage tank at a refinery) is no longer subject to this subpart. - (3) If the remediation material management unit is also subject to another subpart under 40 CFR part [61](/cfr/40/part61.md) or [40](/cfr/40/part40.md) CFR [part 63](/cfr/40/part63.md), you control emissions of the HAP listed in Table 1 of this subpart from the affected remediation material management unit in compliance with the standards specified in the applicable subpart. This means you are complying with all applicable emissions limitations and work practice standards under the other subpart (e.g., you install and operate the required air pollution controls or have implemented the required work practice to reduce HAP emissions to levels specified by the applicable subpart). This provision does not apply to any exemption of the affected source from the emissions limitations and work practice standards allowed by the other applicable subpart. - (4) If the remediation material management unit is an open tank or surface impoundment used for a biological treatment process, you meet the requirements as specified in paragraphs [(b)(4)(i)](#b-4-i) and [(ii)](#b-4-ii) of this section. - (i) You demonstrate that the biological treatment process conducted in the open tank or surface impoundment meets the performance levels specified in either § [63.684(b)(4)(i)](/cfr/40/63.684.md?p=b-4-i) or [(ii)](/cfr/40/63.684.md?p=b-4-ii). - (ii) You monitor the biological treatment process conducted in the open tank or surface impoundment according to the requirements in [§ 63.684(e)(4)](/cfr/40/63.684.md?p=e-4). - (c) A remediation material management unit is exempted from the requirements in [paragraph (b)](#b) of this section if this unit is used for cleanup of radioactive mixed waste, as defined in [§ 63.7957](/cfr/40/63.7957.md), that is subject to applicable regulations, directives, and other requirements under the Atomic Energy Act, the Nuclear Waste Policy Act, or the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant Land Withdrawal Act. - (d) One or a combination of remediation material management units may be exempted at your discretion from the requirements in [paragraph (b)](#b) of this section provided that the total annual quantity of HAP listed in Table 1 of this subpart contained in the remediation material placed in all of the remediation material management units exempted under this paragraph is less than 1 Mg/yr. For each remediation material management unit you select to be exempted under this provision, you must meet the requirements in paragraphs [(d)(1)](#d-1) and [(2)](#d-2) of this section. - (1) You must designate each of the remediation material management units you are selecting to be exempted under this paragraph by either submitting to the Administrator a written notification identifying the exempt units or permanently marking the exempt units at the faculty site. If you choose to prepare and submit a written notification, this notification must include a site plan, process diagram, or other appropriate documentation identifying each of the exempt units. If you choose to permanently mark the exempt units, each exempt unit must be marked in such a manner that it can be readily identified as an exempt unit from the other remediation material management units located at the site. - (2) You must prepare an initial determination of the total annual HAP quantity in the remediation material placed in the units exempted under this paragraph. This determination is based on the total quantity of the HAP listed in Table 1 of this subpart as determined at the point where the remediation material is placed in each exempted unit. You must perform a new determination whenever the extent of changes to the quantity or composition of the remediation material placed in the exempted units could cause the total annual HAP content in the remediation material to exceed 1 Mg/yr.

How do I determine the average VOHAP concentration of my remediation material? - (a) **General requirements.** You must determine the average total VOHAP concentration of a remediation material using either direct measurement as specified in [paragraph (b)](#b) of this section or by knowledge as specified in [paragraph (c)](#c) of this section. These methods may be used to determine the average VOHAP concentration of any material listed in (a)(1) through (3) of this section. - (1) A single remediation material stream; or - (2) Two or more remediation material streams that are combined prior to, or within, a remediation material management unit or treatment process; or - (3) Remediation material that is combined with one or more non-remediation material streams prior to, or within, a remediation material management unit or treatment process. - (b) **Direct measurement.** To determine the average total VOHAP concentration of a remediation material using direct measurement, you must use the procedures in [paragraphs (b)(1) through (3)](#b-1..b-3) of this section. - (1) **Sampling.** Samples of each material stream must be collected from the container, pipeline, or other device used to deliver each material stream prior to entering the remediation material management unit or treatment process in a manner such that volatilization of organics contained in the sample is minimized and an adequately representative sample is collected and maintained for analysis by the selected method. - (i) The averaging period to be used for determining the average total VOHAP concentration for the material stream on a mass-weighted average basis must be designated and recorded. The averaging period can represent any time interval that you determine is appropriate for the material stream but must not exceed 1 year. For streams that are combined, an averaging period representative for all streams must be selected. - (ii) No less than four samples must be collected to represent the complete range of HAP compositions and HAP quantities that occur in each material stream during the entire averaging period due to normal variations in the material stream(s). Examples of such normal variations are variation of the HAP concentration within a contamination area. - (iii) All samples must be collected and handled according to written procedures you prepare and document in a site sampling plan. This plan must describe the procedure by which representative samples of the material stream(s) are collected such that a minimum loss of organics occurs throughout the sample collection and handling process and by which sample integrity is maintained. A copy of the written sampling plan must be maintained on site in the facility operating records. An example of an acceptable sampling plan includes a plan incorporating sample collection and handling procedures according to the guidance found in “Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods,” EPA Publication No. SW-846 or Method 25D in [40 CFR part 60](/cfr/40/part60.md), appendix A. - (2) **Analysis.** Each collected sample must be prepared and analyzed according to either one of the methods listed in [§ 63.694(b)(2)(ii)](/cfr/40/63.694.md?p=b-2-ii), or any current EPA Contracts Lab Program method (or future revisions) capable of identifying all the HAP in Table 1 of this subpart. - (3) **Calculations.** The average total VOHAP concentration (C ) on a mass-weighted basis must be calculated by using the results for all samples analyzed according to [paragraph (b)(2)](#b-2) of this section and Equation 1 of this section as follows: - (c) **Knowledge of the material.** To determine the average total VOHAP concentration of a remediation material using knowledge, you must use the procedures in [paragraphs (c)(1) through (3)](#c-1..c-3) of this section. - (1) Documentation must be prepared that presents the information used as the basis for your knowledge of the material stream's average VOHAP concentration. Examples of information that may be used as the basis for knowledge include: material balances for the source(s) generating each material stream; species-specific chemical test data for the material stream from previous testing that are still applicable to the current material stream; test data for material from the contamination area(s) being remediated. - (2) If test data are used as the basis for knowledge, then you must document the test method, sampling protocol, and the means by which sampling variability and analytical variability are accounted for in the determination of the average VOHAP concentration. For example, you may use HAP concentration test data for the material stream that are validated according to Method 301 in [40 CFR part 63](/cfr/40/part63.md), appendix A as the basis for knowledge of the material. This information must be provided for each material stream where streams are combined. - (3) If you use species-specific chemical concentration test data as the basis for knowledge of the material, you may adjust the test data to the corresponding average VOHAP concentration value which would be obtained had the material samples been analyzed using Method 305. To adjust these data, the measured concentration for each individual HAP chemical species contained in the material is multiplied by the appropriate species-specific adjustment factor (fm305) listed in Table 1 of this subpart. - (d) In the event that you and we disagree on a determination using knowledge of the average total VOHAP concentration for a remediation material, then the results from a determination of VOHAP concentration using direct measurement by EPA Method 305 in [40 CFR part 60](/cfr/40/part60.md), appendix A, as specified in [paragraph (b)](#b) of this section, will be used to determine compliance with the applicable requirements of this subpart.

All samples must be collected and handled according to written procedures prepared by you and documented in a site sampling plan. This plan must describe the procedure by which representative samples of the remediation material are collected such that a minimum loss of organics occurs throughout the sample collection and handling process and by which sample integrity is maintained. A copy of the written sampling plan must be maintained on site in the facility site operating records. An example of an acceptable sampling plan includes a plan incorporating sample collection and handling procedures according to the guidance found in “Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods,” EPA Publication No. SW-846 or Method 25D in [40 CFR part 60](/cfr/40/part60.md), appendix A. - (2) **Analysis.** Any one of the following methods may be used to analyze the samples and compute the maximum HAP vapor pressure of the remediation material: - (i) Method 25E in [40 CFR part 60](/cfr/40/part60.md) appendix A; - (ii) Methods described in American Petroleum Institute Bulletin 2517, “Evaporation Loss from External Floating Roof Tanks,” (incorporated by reference, see [§ 63.14](/cfr/40/63.14.md)); - (iii) Methods obtained from standard reference texts; - (iv) ASTM D2879-83 (incorporated by reference, see [§ 63.14](/cfr/40/63.14.md)); or - (v) **Any other method approved by the Administrator.** - (c) **Use of knowledge to determine the maximum HAP vapor pressure.** Documentation must be prepared and recorded that presents the information used as the basis for your knowledge that the maximum HAP vapor pressure of the remediation material is less than the maximum vapor pressure limit listed in Table 2 of this subpart for the applicable tank design capacity category. - (d) In the event that you and us disagree on a determination using knowledge of the maximum HAP vapor pressure of the remediation material, then the results from a determination of maximum HAP vapor pressure using direct measurement by EPA Method 25E in [40 CFR part 60](/cfr/40/part60.md), appendix A, as specified in [paragraph (b)](#b) of this section, will be used to determine compliance with the applicable requirements of this subpart.
