To obtain a BUD, the petitioner must show consistency with solid waste regulations. BUDs to combust materials such as paper, plastic, etc., are not usually granted since these materials are readily recyclable (see Appendix A for a more complete discussion of the BUD process). dec.ny.gov NYSDEC Solid Waste New York State's 6 NYCRR Part 360 Solid Waste Management Facilities regulation provides two main vehicles for the use of solid waste as a fuel. The first is under the Subpart 360-3 solid waste incinerator regulations. The second is under section 360-1.15. This section provides for a petition to be submitted for a case-specific beneficial use determination (BUD) for the use of solid waste as a fuel. If such a BUD is granted, the solid waste is no longer subject to Part 360 jurisdiction when used as a fuel (as decided in the petition). Examples of different predetermined BUDs which have been authorized include the following: Unadulterated wood, wood chips, or bark from land clearing operations, logging operations, utility line clearing and maintenance, pulp and paper production, and wood products manufacturing when these materials are used in or for specific operations listed in the predetermined BUD, including wood fuel production [paragraph 360-1.15(b)(3)]; and A predetermined BUD has also been granted to whole tires and tire chips when used for energy recovery.[paragraph 360-1.15(b)(6)]. For the purpose of Part 360, such materials are no longer considered to be wastes when they are used in these ways. Also, solid waste derived fuels may be used at the location which they are generated, without the issuance of a BUD as provided in paragraph 360-1.7(b)(4). A determination of the applicable air regulations (Part 227, Part 212, or Part 219) is still necessary.6 To obtain a BUD, the petitioner must show consistency with solid waste regulations. BUDs to combust materials such as paper, plastic, etc., are not usually granted since these materials are readily recyclable (see Appendix A for a more complete discussion of the BUD process). NYSDEC Air The Division of Air Resources regulates the burning of solid or liquid materials as either combustion or incineration. The following regulations apply to each type of material: Solid Waste Materials: Subparts 227-1 and 227-2 limit stationary combustion installations to the firing of fossil fuels and/or wood. All other solid waste materials are (according to the air regulations) permitted to be fired in incineration units only, except where the Department has authorized specific exemptions. The air regulations classify incineration in two different categories. The first category: Part 219 regulates the incineration of municipal solid waste, the second category: Part 212 controls the burning of discrete industrial process (waste/product) streams. Approach to Permitting Through the use of this air guidance document a proposed alternative fuel or waste remediation project shall be determined to be subject to either Part 227, Part 212, or Part 219. This document does not relieve the applicant from the requirements of 6 NYCRR Part 617 State Environmental Quality Review (SEQR). Thus, the SEQR process shall be conducted as part of the permitting/permit modification process. dec.ny.gov
