Section 329IAC13-3-2. Used oil specifications

   Used oil burned for energy recovery, and any fuel produced from used oil by processing, blending, or other treatment, is subject to regulation under this article unless it is shown not to exceed any of the allowable levels of the constituents and properties in the specification shown in Table 1. Once used oil that is to be burned for energy recovery has been shown not to exceed any specification and the person making that showing complies with 329 IAC 13-9-3, 329 IAC 13-9-4, and 329 IAC 13-9-5(b), the used oil is no longer subject to this article.

Table 1-Used Oil not Exceeding any Specification Level is not Subject to this Article when Burned for Energy Recovery1
Constituent or Property	Allowable Level
Arsenic	5 ppm maximum
Cadmium	2 ppm maximum
Chromium	10 ppm maximum
Lead	100 ppm maximum
Flash point	100° F minimum
Total halogens	4,000 ppm maximum2
1The specification does not apply to mixtures of used oil and hazardous waste that continue to be regulated as hazardous waste (See section 1(b) of this rule.).
2Used oil containing more than one thousand (1,000) parts per million total halogens is presumed to be a hazardous waste under the rebuttable presumption provided under section 1(b) of this rule. Such used oil is subject to 40 CFR 266 Subpart H rather than this article when burned for energy recovery unless the presumption of mixing can be successfully rebutted.

Note: Applicable standards for the burning of used oil containing PCBs are imposed by 40 CFR 761.20(e).
