Sec. 264.347  Monitoring and inspections.

    (a) The owner or operator must conduct, as a minimum, the following 
monitoring while incinerating hazardous waste:
    (1) Combustion temperature, waste feed rate, and the indicator of 
combustion gas velocity specified in the facility permit must be 
monitored on a continuous basis.
    (2) CO must be monitored on a continuous basis at a point in the 
incinerator downstream of the combustion zone and prior to release to 
the atmosphere.
    (3) Upon request by the Regional Administrator, sampling and 
analysis of the waste and exhaust emissions must be conducted to verify 
that the operating requirements established in the permit achieve the 
performance standards of Sec. 264.343.
    (b) The incinerator and associated equipment (pumps, valves, 
conveyors, pipes, etc.) must be subjected to thorough visual inspection, 
at least daily, for leaks, spills, fugitive emissions, and signs of 
tampering.
    (c) The emergency waste feed cutoff system and associated alarms 
must be tested at least weekly to verify operability, unless the 
applicant demonstrates to the Regional Administrator that weekly 
inspections will unduly restrict or upset operations and that less 
frequent inspection will be adequate. At a minimum, operational testing 
must be conducted at least monthly.
    (d) This monitoring and inspection data must be recorded and the 
records must be placed in the operating log required by Sec. 264.73.
