Procedure to determine the maximum organic vapor pressure of a hazardous waste in a tank. NR 665.1084(3)(a)
(a) An owner or operator shall determine the maximum organic vapor pressure for each hazardous waste placed in a tank using Tank Level 1 controls according to the standards in s.
NR 665.1085 (3).
NR 665.1084(3)(b)
(b) An owner or operator shall use either direct measurement as specified in par.
(c) or knowledge of the waste as specified in par.
(d) to determine the maximum organic vapor pressure which is representative of the hazardous waste composition stored or treated in the tank.
NR 665.1084(3)(c)
(c) If the owner or operator uses direct measurement to determine the maximum organic vapor pressure of a hazardous waste, the owner or operator shall do all of the following:
NR 665.1084(3)(c)1.
1. `Sampling.' Collect a sufficient number of samples to be representative of the waste contained in the tank. Collect and handle all samples according to written procedures prepared by the owner or operator and documented in a site sampling plan. The plan shall describe the procedure for collecting representative samples of the hazardous waste which minimizes loss of organics throughout the sample collection and handling process and maintains sample integrity. Maintain a copy of the written sampling plan on-site in the facility operating records. An example of acceptable sample collection and handling procedures may be found in Method 25D in Appendix A of
40 CFR part 60, both incorporated by reference in s.
NR 660.11.

Potential leak interfaces that are associated with covers and closure devices include, but are not limited to, the interface of the cover and its foundation mounting, the periphery of any opening on the cover and its associated closure device and the sealing seat interface on a spring-loaded pressure relief valve.
NR 665.1084(4)(b)

In the case when the configuration of the closure device prevents any sampling at the interface and the device is equipped with an enclosed extension or horn (e.g., some pressure relief devices), place the instrument probe inlet at approximately the center of the exhaust area to the atmosphere.
