(A) (1) Any user who commences the discharge of hazardous waste shall notify the POTW, the EPA Regional Waste Management Division Director, and the state hazardous waste authorities, in writing, of any discharge into the POTW of a substance which, if otherwise disposed of, would be a hazardous waste under 40 CFR 261, in accordance with 40 CFR 403.12(p). Such notification must include the name of the hazardous waste as set forth in 40 CFR 261, the EPA hazardous waste number, and the type of discharge (continuous, batch, or other). If the user discharges more than 100 kilograms of such waste per calendar month to the POTW, the notification also shall contain the following information to the extent such information is known and readily available to the user:
(a) An identification of the hazardous constituents contained in the wastes,
(b) An estimation of the mass and concentration of such constituents in the waste stream discharge during the calendar month, and
(c) A plan to reduce and eliminate the volume and toxicity of hazardous wastes generated to the degree it has determined to be economically practical.
(2) All notifications must take place no later than ten working days after the discharge commences. Any notification under this division need be submitted only once for each hazardous waste discharge. However, notifications of changed conditions must be submitted under § 52.054. The notification requirement in this section does not apply to pollutants already reported by users subject to categorical pretreatment standards under the self-monitoring requirements of §§ 52.050, 52.052, and 52.053.
(B) This provision does not create a right to discharge any substance not otherwise permitted to be discharged by this chapter, a permit issued thereunder, or any applicable federal or state law.
