{longname}Q744. My site receives separate shipments of strictly inert materials in addition to receiving bulk MSW.  Can I use the "material specific modeling approach" for the inert waste stream and then use the bulk waste DOC value of 0.20, as this appears to be allowed in §98.343(a)(2)?  If my site also receives segregated construction and demolition (C&D) wastes, can I still use the "material specific modeling approach" for these segregated shipments and then use the bulk waste DOC value of 0.20 for the bulk MSW shipments?

The

“material specific

modeling

...

approach” in

...

§98.343(a)(2)

...

refers

...

to

...

the

...

DOC

...

and

...

k-values

...

under

...

the

...

“Waste composition option” in Table HH-1.

...

If

separate

inert

shipments,

you

can

use

the

waste

option

for

those

inert

shipments

and

then

use

the

bulk

waste

...

DOC

...

value

...

of

...

0.20

...

(under

...

the

...

“Bulk waste option”) for all other shipments. If you choose to use the waste composition option, then you must use a DOC value of 0.20 for all waste shipments that cannot be directly characterized into the waste composition categories, including C&D wastes. In other words, C&D waste quantities would be treated as “bulk waste” under the “material specific modeling approach” because separate DOC and k values are not included for C&D waste under the “Waste composition option.” Facilities that receive segregated shipments of inerts, C&D wastes, and general MSW can either: 1) treat all of their waste as bulk waste (i.e.,

...

all

...

waste

...

has

...

a

...

DOC

...

=

...

0.20);

...

2)

...

use

...

the

...

modified

...

bulk

...

MSW

...

option,

which

requires

the

use

...

of

...

a

DOC

...

value

of

0.31

...

for

all

general

MSW

shipments;

or

3)

use

the

waste

option

only

for

inert

shipments

(i.e.,

...

all

inerts

have

a

DOC

...

=

0.00)

and

...

use

the

bulk

DOC

value

(DOC

for

that
