Wagner The "Answer Book" for all your compliance questions. How much of your company's waste is considered "hazardous" under current federal regulations?

Now you can find the authoritative answers to these and hundreds of other critical waste management problems--in minutes--with the revised edition of this practical, quick-reference guide to RCRA and HMTA compliance. The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act have spawned an enormous and complex body of regulations and requirements--among the most complicated laws in the land.

Written by a former technical compliance specialist for EPA.

This approach lets you go straight to the help you need without digging through pages and pages of dense, technical detail. You'll find EPA-approved procedures and solutions for virtually every practical aspect of hazardous waste management: * Identification and Classification Guidelines * Requirements for Medium-and Large-Quantity Generators * Transportation under RCRA and HMTA * Recycling, Storage, Treatment, and Disposal * Ground Water Monitoring * Closure and Post-Closure * Financial Requirements * Operating and Post-Closure Permits * Corrective Action * State Regulations and Enforcement Questions were developed from thousands of actual inquiries received at EPA and from the author's experience consulting on hazardous wastes for private industry. In preparing the answers and guidelines, Mr. Wagner went beyond the regulations themselves to gather additional facts and insights from source documents not readily available to the layman, including OSWER Directives, Regulatory Interpretation Letters, Program Implementation Guidance, EPA policy memos and guidance manuals, DOT guidance manuals, Federal Register preambles, and RCRA/Superfund Hotline Monthly Reports. Thus, users will find Q&A not just convenient but authoritative and in depth## For everyone concerned with hazardous## managers, health and safety managers, attor## Q&A is an unrivalled productivity resource.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GAO discussed the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) progress in implementing Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) provisions to determine whether EPA was: (1) identifying and regulating hazardous wastes; (2) ensuring RCRA facilities' compliance with regulatory controls; and (3) encouraging waste minimization. GAO found that: (1) EPA made limited progress in identifying and regulating hazardous wastes due to its changing approaches, inadequate resources, and absence of systematic implementation procedures; (2) Congress enacted prescriptive amendments to RCRA with numerous deadlines that imposed specific controls if EPA failed to meet them; (3) EPA completed action on less than half of the 76 specific deadlines Congress imposed, although it made some progress on the others; and (4) although EPA was developing a plan to specify waste identification tasks and identify needed resources, it had no timetable for completion or implementation. GAO also found that: (1) both private and government-owned facilities failed to comply with EPA regulations in the areas of groundwater monitoring, closure and post-closure, and financial assurance requirements; (2) although EPA developed a strategy requiring 90-percent compliance by 1989, it did not hold its regions or states accountable for meeting the goal; (3) although EPA was working to determine, by the end of 1990, the need for a mandatory waste minimization program, it had no set overall quantifiable goals for waste reduction due to its lack of data; and (4) EPA has been unable to develop comprehensive and reliable data to assess hazardous waste legislation, evaluate trends in regulatory compliance and waste minimization, and develop waste management priorities.

Download or read book Risk Based Waste Classification in California written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1999-08-14 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) of the State of California Environmental Protection Agency is in the process of complying with the Regulatory Structure Update. The Regulatory Structure Update is a comprehensive review and refocusing of California's system for identifying and regulating management of hazardous wastes. As part of this effort, the DTSC proposes to change its current waste classification system that categorizes wastes as hazardous or nonhazardous based on their toxicity. Under the proposed system there would be two risk-based thresholds rather than the single toxicity threshold currently used to distinguish between the wastes. Wastes that contain specific chemicals at concentrations that exceed the upper threshold will be designated as hazardous; those below the lower threshold will be nonhazardous; and those with chemical concentrations between the two thresholds will be "special" wastes and subject to variances for management and disposal. The proposed DTSC system combines toxicity information with short or long-term exposure information to determine the risks associated with the chemicals. Under section 57004 of the California Health and Safety Code, the scientific basis of the proposed waste classification system is subject to external scientific peer review by the National Academy of Sciences, the University of California, or other similar institution of higher learning or group of scientists. This report addresses that regulatory requirement.

Download or read book The Derived from Rule Under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act RCRA RCRA Information Brief written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 2 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under the ''Derived-from'' rule, solid waste that is generated from the treatment, storage or disposal of a hazardous waste is itself classified as a hazardous waste. Therefore, residues resulting from treatment, storage or disposal activities including materials such as sludges, ash emission control dusts, leachate, or spill residues are considered hazardous wastes (with certain exceptions discussed below). This provision is based on the premise that any residues from treatment, storage or disposal of hazardous waste will contain hazardous constituents [40 CFR 261.3(c)(2)(i)]. It should be noted that a December, 1991 court ruling remanded both the ''Mixture'' rule (see ref. 1) and the ''Derived-from'' rule to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), on the grounds that EPA did not allow for public comment on these rules prior to promulgation. On March 3, 1992 EPA reinstated the rules on an interim basis, and is currently developing a revised regulatory scheme for hazardous waste classification (see ref. 2).
