NR 419.07 Remediation of contaminated soil or water. NR 419.07(1)(1)
Applicability. This section applies to all facilities and procedures used to remediate or dispose of soil or water contaminated with organic compounds which are direct air contaminant sources and to their owners and operators.
NR 419.07 Note
Note: Certain contaminated soils and water are hazardous wastes. Due to the “mixture", “derived from", and “contained in" rules found in ch.
NR 661, soils and water contaminated by listed hazardous waste under ss.
NR 661.31 (1) and
661.32, are also hazardous wastes. In addition, any residue or contaminated soil, water or other debris resulting from the cleanup of a spill of any material listed in s.
NR 661.33 is a listed hazardous waste. Soils, water or other debris may also be considered hazardous waste when they exhibit a hazardous characteristic under one of the test procedures of ss.
NR 661.20 to
661.24, including the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure test. Contaminated soils and water must be evaluated for the applicability of hazardous waste management rules (chs.
NR 660 to
679). The requirements in chs.
NR 660 to
679 for the treatment, storage or disposal of hazardous waste must be followed if the contaminated soil or water is hazardous waste. Requirements in chs.
NR 700 to
750 may also apply.
NR 419.07(2)
(2)
General requirements. Except as provided in sub.
(3), no person may use any procedure to remediate or dispose of soil or water contaminated with organic compounds unless the remediation project meets all of the following conditions:
NR 419.07(2)(b)
(b) The project will not cause emissions in such quantity, concentration, or duration as to be injurious to human health.
NR 419.07(2)(c)
(c) The project will not cause emissions in quantities which will substantially contribute to the exceedance of an ambient air quality standard or ambient air increment or cause air pollution.
NR 419.07(3)
(3)
Exemptions. Any procedure or activity listed in this subsection is exempt from the emission limits specified in sub.
(4), except those contained in ch.
NR 445:
NR 419.07(3)(a)
(a) Installation and use of devices which remove organic compounds from a private or municipal potable water supply.
NR 419.07(3)(b)
(b) Installation and use of crop irrigation systems or dewatering wells to remediate contaminated water.
NR 419.07(3)(c)

(d) Pilot testing of a negative pressure venting system provided the testing is limited to a total withdrawal of not more than 150,000 standard cubic feet (scf) of air.
NR 419.07 Note
Note: The total withdrawal may be determined by the equation: Total withdrawal (scf) = hours of operation of pilot test (hr) × average flow rate in cubic feet per minute at standard conditions (scfm) × 60 min/hr. An example is: 10 hours of operation × 250 scfm × 60 min/hr = 150,000 scf. When testing at multiple flow rates, determine the withdrawal for each flow rate and sum the withdrawals for a total withdrawal.
