(1) All waste tires shall be stored in accordance with the waste tire site requirements in Fl. Admin. Code R. 62-711.500
(2) A waste tire processing facility shall not accept any waste tires for processing if it has reached its permitted storage limit for any category of waste tires, or if the number of waste tires on the site exceeds the quantity estimate in the closing cost estimate. The maximum storage limits that will be set in a waste tire processing facility permit are:
(a) For the aggregate of whole waste tires, processed waste tires, and residuals, 60 times the daily through-put of the processing equipment being used; however, whole waste tires shall not exceed 30 times the daily through-put of the processing equipment being used; and,
(b) For used tires, 10,000 used tires stored separately from other waste tires.
(3) At least 75 percent of the whole tires, used tires, and processed tires that are delivered to or are contained on the site of the waste tire processing facility at the beginning of each calendar year shall be processed and removed for disposal or recycling from the facility during the year, or disposed of on the site at a permitted solid waste management facility. Processed tires stored for recycling or disposal shall meet the minimum size requirements specified in Fl. Admin. Code R. 62-711.400(3)(b), unless a demonstration is made as part of a permit application or modification that storage of a larger size will not adversely affect the environment or the public health or welfare, and that storage of a larger size is necessary for purposes of recycling or transportation. Initial cover shall not be required for stored, processed tires that are not in excess of the storage limit of the facility.
(4) The owner or operator of a waste tire processing facility shall record and maintain for three years the following information regarding their activities, which records shall be available for inspection by Department personnel during normal business hours:
(a) For all waste tires shipped from the facility, the name and waste tire collector registration number of the waste tire collector who accepted the waste tires for transport, and the quantity of waste tires shipped with that collector; and if the waste tires were shipped with a person who is not a waste tire collector, the number of tires shipped, the person’s name, address and telephone number; and the place where the waste tires were deposited;
