National Biennial RCRA Hazardous Waste Report:  Based on 1991 Data	
             RCRA HAZARDOUS WASTE GENERATION

       In 1991, 23,426 large quantity generators produced 306 million tons of  hazardous
wastes regulated by RCRA.3 This is an increase of 3,000 generators and 108 million
tons of waste compared to 1989.  As identified in Exhibit 1, the largest hazardous waste
generating states were Texas (104 million tons), Michigan (32 million tons), Louisiana (31
million tons), and New Jersey (29 million tons).  Together, these states accounted for
64% of the national total.

       In comparing 1991 and 1989 data, it is important to note that many new wastes
were captured by RCRA in 1990 with  the promulgation of the Toxicity Characteristic (TC)
Rule.  The TC Rule added 25 new hazardous waste codes (D018-D043) and required more
stringent analytical tests for the presence of toxic constituents in waste.  These codes
captured, at a minimum, 137 million tons of previously unregulated wastes. An additional
25 million tons  were described by D018-D043 mixed with other waste  codes.  This
suggests that the new toxicity characteristic waste listings captured  between 137 and
162 million tons of  previously non-regulated wastes. Excluding these newly regulated
wastes, the amount of hazardous waste generated in 1991 was between 29 and 54
million tons less than the 198 million, tons reported in 1989.

       Hazardous waste generators are included in the  "National Biennial RCRA Hazardous
Waste Report" if they identified themselves as large quantity generators.  The following
are the federal criteria for being a large quantity generator:

       o     The generator generated in any single month  1,000 kg  (2,200 Ibs. or 1.1
             tons)  or more of RCRA hazardous waste; or

       o     The generator generated in any single month, or accumulated at any time, 1
             kg (2.2 Ibs) of RCRA acute hazardous waste; or

       o     The generator generated or accumulated  at any time more than 100 kg (220
  *Thi* quantity only includes waste managed in treatment units subject to RCRA permitting standards or transportation
regulations. Hazardous waste managed in units exempt from RCRA permitting standards, such as treatment systems
permitted by the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), was not included in this report.

             Ibs) of spill cleanup material contaminated with RCRA acute hazardous
             waste.                              ^

      According to these criteria, a generator that reports more than 13.2 tons (12
months x 1.1 tons) of annual hazardous waste generation must be a large quantity
generator, because the generator must have generated at least 1.1 tons in at least one
month. A generator that reports less than 13.2 tons in a year may not be a large quantity
generator, because they may have generated less than 1.1 tons in every month.  Of the
23,426 generators that identified themselves as large quantity generators, there are
                    rs                       '                     .  ,
14,190 generators that generated more than 13.2 tons in 1991, 8,086 that generated
between  1.1 and  13.2 tons, and 1,150 that generated less than 1.1  tons.

      It is important to note that the large quantity generators identified in this report
      -,'                        .             - ,         '                          -
have been included on the basis of the best available and most current information
provided electronically to the EPA by the States.  Both the EPA and the States have made
significant efforts to ensure the accuracy of these data.  However, the large  quantity
generator counts may include some generators that met lower, state-defined thresholds for
large quantity generators. 'The EPA and the States endeavor to control for variation in
state programs, but it is-not always possible to  distinguish generators that the federal
threshold determines to be large quantity generators from generators that a state threshold
determines to be large quantity generators.  The EPA and the States also endeavor to
ensure that only federally regulated wastes are  counted in the determination of federal
large quantity generators, but the large quantity generator pounts may include generators
that, when determining whether they were large quantity generators, counted wastes
regulated only by their states or wastes that are exempt from federal regulation.

             RCRA HAZARDOUS WASTE MANAGEMENT

      In 1991, 3,862 treatment, storage, or disposal facilities (TSDs) subject to RCRA
permitting standards managed 294 million tons of hazardous waste. This represents an
800 facility increase in the number of TSDs and a 98 million ton increase in the amount of
waste managed as compared to 1989. As identified in Exhibit 2, the,states  managing the
largest quantities of hazardous wastes were Texas (104 million tons), Michigan (32 million
tons), Louisiana (32 million tons), and  New Jersey (30 million tons).  Together, these
                                        ES-3

National Biennial RCRA Hazardous Waste Report: Based on 1991 Data	
states accounted for 67% of the national management total.

      The majority (76%) of the national total was managed in aqueous treatment units.
One hundred and thirty-two  (132) million tons were managed in aqueous organic treatment
units, 19 million tons in aqueous inorganic treatment units, and 74 million tons in both
inorganic and organic aqueous treatment units.

      Land disposal accounts for 9.0% of the management total.  Nationwide, 23 million
tons of hazardous wastes were disposed in underground injection wells, 1.7 million tons
were disposed in landfills, 240 thousand tons were managed in surface impoundments,
and 52 thousand tons  were  managed by land application (land farming).

      Recovery operations account for 2.2% of the national management total. Facilities
reported that 3.6 million tons were managed in solvent recovery units, 1.4 million tons
were managed in fuel blending units, 1.0 million tons were managed in metals recovery
units, and 480 thousand tons were recovered by other methods such as acid regeneration,
waste oil recovery, and non-solvent organic recovery.

      Thermal treatment accounts for  1.1% of the national management total. A total of
1.9 million tons were incinerated, while facilities reused  1.5 million tons as fuel  in boilers
or industrial furnaces.

             RCRA HAZARDOUS WASTE SHIPMENTS AND RECEIPTS

      In 1991, 24,000 facilities reported shipping a total of 13 million tons of waste, of
which five million tons were shipped interstate. The states that shipped (in or out of state)
the largest quantities of wastes were Texas, Connecticut and Michigan. The states that
received the largest quantities  of waste (from in or out of state) were California, Ohio and
Michigan. The largest net importers (imports minus exports) were Ohio (150 thousand
tons), South Carolina (127 thousand tons), and Kansas (110 thousand tons). The largest
net exporters (exports  minus imports) were Massachusetts (197 thousand tons), California
(136 thousand tons), and Texas (131 thousand tons).

              National  Biennial RCRA Hazardous Waste Report

         The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in cooperation with
individual States,1 biennially collects information regarding the generation, management,
and final disposition of hazardous wastes regulated under the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA), as amended. The purpose of this report is to communicate
the initial findings of EPA's 1991  Biennial Reporting System (BRS) data collection efforts
to the public, government agencies, and the regulated community.2

1.0     WASTE GENERATION

         .This section presents a  series of exhibits describing RCRA hazardous waste
generation in 1991.  Nationwide,  23,426 large quantity generators (LQGs) produced 306
million tons3 of hazardous waste subsequently regulated by RCRA.4 Throughout this
report, the term RCRA hazardous  waste refers to solid waste assigned a federal hazardous
waste code and regulated by RCRA, either because it was managed in a unit subject to
RCRA permitting standards or because it was shipped and subject to RCRA transportation
requirements^ Individual states may choose to regulate additional  wastes not identified as
hazardous  by EPA.  Hazardous wastes assigned only a state hazardous waste code are not
included in this report.  Similarly,  hazardous wastes managed only in units subject to state
permitting  requirements, or wastes that are exempt from  RCRA permitting requirements,
are not included in this report.

       v Exhibits 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 present the quantity of RCRA hazardous waste
generated and the number of LQGs in each EPA region in 1991. Three regions produced
   'The term "State" includes the District, of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Trust Territories, and the Virgin Islands.

   2BRS respondents have submitted confidential business information (CBI) pursuant to 40 CFR 260.2(b).  While not
included in any public BRS database, CBI has been incorporated into this report wherever possible.  Where CBI has been
omitted to preserve confidentiality, a footnote has been provided.              ,       ,            ..,-.-

   3English (short) tons.                       '

  ,'*This quantity only includes waste managed in treatment units subject to RCRA permitting standards or subject to RCRA
transportation regulations. Hazardous waste' managed in units exempt from RCRA permitting standards, such as units
permitted by the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), were not included in this report.

National Biennial RCRA Hazardous Waste Report:  Based on 1991 Data	'
79% of the 306 million tons generated nationwide. Region 6 generated 137 million tons,
Region 5 generated 54 million tons, and Region 2 generated 51 million tons.

       Certain states within these regions account for these high volumes of waste.  As
shown in Exhibits 1.4, 1.5, and 1.6, the largest hazardous waste generating  states were
Texas (104 million tons), Michigan (32 million tons), Louisiana (31 million tons) and New
Jersey (29 million tons).  Together, these states account for 64% of the national total.

       Large generators within these states account for the majority of these generation
totals. As shown in Exhibit 1.7, the largest 50 generators account for 81% (249 million
tons) of the national total.  Of the 50 generators, 22 are located in Texas.  These 22
                                                         ' f
facilities account for 93% of Texas's generation total.  The one Michigan site, Dow
Chemical Co., accounts for 95% of Michigan's generation. The five Louisiana facilities
account for 90% of Louisiana's generation. And, the one New Jersey site, E.I. DuPont
Chambers Works, accounts for 97% of New Jersey's generation.

       In 1991, 23,426 facilities identified themselves as large quantity generators
(LQGs).5 The EPA regions  with the largest numbers of LQGs were Region 5 (5,080),
Region 2 (4,386), and Region  4 (3,320). These regions account for 55% of the total
number of LQGs. See Exhibits  1.1, 1.2, and 1.3.  The states with the most LQGs were
New York (2,627),  California (2,116), and  New Jersey (1,661).  See Exhibits 1.4, 1.5, and
1.6.
   6 EPA lists all reported large quantity generators in the "National Biennial RCRA Hazardous Waste Report: List of Large
Quantity Generators in the United States." This document may be obtained through the RCRA Hotline by calling 1-800-424-

National Biennial RCRA Hazardous Waste Report:  Based on 1991 Data

       A generator is a large quantity generator if it met the,following federal criteria:

       o     The generator generated in any single month 1,000 kg (2,200 IDS." or 1.1
             tons) or more RCRA,hazardous waste; or

       o     The generator generated in any single month, or accumulated at any time, 1
             kg (2.2 Ibs) of RCRA acute hazardous waste; or

       o     The generator generated or accumulated at any time more than 100 kg (220
             Ibs) of spill cleanup material contaminated with RCRA acute hazardous.

       According to these criteria, a generator that reports more than 13.2 tons (12
months x 1.1 tons) of annual hazardous  waste generation must be a large quantity
generator, because the generator must have generated at least 1.1 tons in at least one
month. A generator that reports less tKan 13.2 tons in a year may not be a large quantity
generator, because they may have generated less than 1.1 tons in every month.  As
shown in Exhibit 1.8, there are 14,190 generators that generated more than 13.2 tons in
1991, 8,086 that generated between 1.1 and 13.2 tons, and 1,150 that generated less
than 1.1 tons.  Most large quantity generators (9,091) generated between 13.2 and 113.2

tons, which is the range displayed in Exhibit 1.8 with the highest distribution. The range
with the second highest distribution is that between 1.1 and 13.2 tons, with 8,086
generators.  Together, these two ranges account for 73% of the total number of large
quantity generators.

       Hazardous waste is distinguished  according to its designation as a characteristic or
listed waste. Characteristic and listed wastes are specifically described in 40 CFR6 261,
and a list of waste codes is provided as Appendix B of this report.

       The term "characteristic waste" refers to any solid waste that exhibits a
characteristic of ignitability (D001), corrosivity (D002), or reactivity (D003), or that
contains toxic constituents in excess of federal standards (D004 - D045).

       An ignitable waste.is a solid waste that exhibits any of the following properties:

              o      A liquid, except aqueous solutions containing less than 24 percent alcohol, that
                     has a flash point less than 60 degrees Celsius (140 degrees Fahrenheit).
              6      A nonliquid capable, under normal conditions, of spontaneous and sustained

              o      An oxidizer per DOT regulation.

  ,     A  corrosive waste is a waste that exhibits the following properties:                         -

              o      An aqueous material with pH less than or equal to 2 or greater than or equal to
                     12.5.

              o      A liquid that corrodes steel at a rate greater than 1 /4 inch per year at a   '
                     temperature of 55 degrees Celsius (130 degrees Fahrenheit).

       A reactive waste is a waste that exhibits the following properties:

              o  .    Normally unstable and reacts violently without detonating.
              o      Reacts violently with water.             '

       Wastes with the toxicity characteristic are identified through failure of the Toxicity  Characteristic
Leaching Procedure Test (TCLP). A solid waste exhibits the characteristic if, using the TCLP or an
equivalent method, the extract from a representative sample of the waste contains any of the
contaminants D005-D043 at a concentration  equal to or greater than the value described in 40 CFR
261.24.                                                                  -

hazardous as a result of its investigations of particular industries or because EPA has specifically
recognized a commercial chemical waste's toxicity. A solid waste is hazardous if it is named on one of
three lists developed by EPA:

       1)      Non-specific source wastes CF' wastes)-These are generic wastes, commonly produced
       by manufacturing and industrial processes.  Examples from this list include spent halogenated
       solvents used in degreasing and wastewater treatment sludge from electroplating, processes as
       well as dioxin wastes, most of which are acutely hazardous wastes due to the danger they
       present to human health and the environment.

       2)      Specific source wastes {'K' wastes)--This list consists of wastes from specifically
       identified industries such as wood preserving, petroleum  refining, and organic chemical
       manufacturing. These wastes typically include sludges, still  bottoms, wastewaters, spent
       catalysts, and residues, e.g., wastewater treatment sludge from pigment production.

       3)      Commercial chemical products ('P' and 'IT wastes)--The third list consists of specific
       commercial chemical products, or manufacturing chemical intermediates. This list includes
       chemicals such as chloroform and creosote, acids such as sulfuric acid  and hydrochloric acid, and
       pesticides such as DDT and kepone.  The 'U'  wastes include toxic chemicals while  'P' waste
       listings are reserved for acutely toxic chemicals.

       Exhibit 1.9 shows the overall portions of the national generation total of 306 million tons that
were characteristic,  listed, or a mixture of characteristic and listed wastes. Characteristic wastes account
for 72.0% {220 million tons) of the national total, listed wastes account for 8.2% (25 million tons), and
mixtures of the two account for 19.4% {59 million tons). The unknown category in Exhibit 1.9
represents hazardous waste reported as lab packs rather than with RCRA codes. In 1991,  there were
187  million tons more characteristic waste than were generated  in 1989 (33 million tons).  This large
increase in characteristic wastes  in 1991  may be the  result of the Toxicity Characteristic (TC) Rule
promulgated in 1990. The TC Rule added 25 new characteristic waste codes (D018-D043) and required
more stringent analytical tests for the presence of characteristic toxic constituents in waste.

       As shown in  Exhibit 1.10, .137 million tons of waste were identified by these 25 new waste
codes, indicating that, at a minimum, the TC Rule captured 137 million tons of previously unregulated
wastes.  Exhibit 1.11 shows that an additional  17 million tons of waste were described with 0018*0043
and other characteristic codes. Another 8 million tons were described by D018-D043 and other listed
waste codes.  While  it is not possible to calculate exactly the amount of waste that was newly regulated
by the TC Rule and how much was regulated prior to  1990, as much as 162 million tons may have been
                                              1-12

captured by new toxicity characteristic waste listings.

       In conclusion, the amount of hazardous waste generated in 1991 was between 144 and 169
million tons without these newly regulated wastes. This represents a decrease of 29 to 54 million tons
from the amount of waste generated in 1989. >

2.0  WASTE MANAGEMENT

      This sectipn presents a series bf exhibits describing the management of RCRA
hazardous waste. EPA collected hazardous waste management information from any
facility that operated treatment, storage, or disposal (TSD) units subject to RCRA
permitting standards in 1991. These facilities are referred to throughout this report as
TSDs. Wastes managed in treatment systems exempt from RCRA permitting
requirements/such as those subject to Clean Water Act or Safe Drinking Water Act
permitting requirements, were not included in this report.

      Exhibits 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3 present the quantity of RCRA hazardous waste managed
and the number of TSDs in the United States and in each EPA region. Overall, a total of
3,862 facilities reported that they managed hazardous waste in TSD units subject to RCRA
permitting standards. This represents an 800 facility increase in the number-of TSDs  in
1989.  Storage facilities account for 2,659 of these facilities, leaving 1,203 facilities that
actually treated or disposed of 294 million tons of hazardous waste; which is a 98 million
ton increase over 1989 quantities.                         :

      Region 6 managed the largest amount of waste (137 million tons, or 47%), while
ranking fifth in the number of TSDs (352).  Region 2 had the highest number of TSDs
(924) and ranked third in the amount of waste managed.  Region '8 had the smallest
number of TSDs and managed the least waste.

            National Biennial RCRA Hazardous Waste Report: Based on  1991 Data	
                   Exhibits 2.4, 2.5, and 2.6 present the quantity of RCRA hazardous waste managed
            and the number of TSDs in each state.  Texas managed the largest amount of waste (104
            million tons), followed by Michigan (32 million tons), Louisiana (32 million tons), and New
            Jersey (30 million tons).  New Jersey reported the most TSDs (781), followed by
            California (409), Illinois (217), and Texas (206). There were no facilities in the District of
            Columbia, Guam, New Hampshire, South Dakota, and Vermont that reported treating or
            disposing waste in units subject to RCA permitting standards, although these states did
            have facilities that reported operating permitted storage facilities.

                   Exhibit 2.7 presents the 50 largest hazardous waste management facilities in the
            United States.  Together, these TSDs accounted for more than 80% of the  national
            management total. The Dow Chemical  Company in Midland, Michigan was the largest
            TSD, managing 30 million  tons of waste, followed by Dupont Chambers Works in
            Deepwater, New Jersey, and Amoco Oil Company Refinery in Texas City, Texas.  A total
            of 22 of the 50 largest TSDs were in Texas.

                   Exhibit 2.8 shows that wastewater management1 (i.e., management in aqueous
            treatment units, neutralization tanks,, underground injection wells, or other wastewater
            treatment systems) accounts for 97% of the national management total. Because most
            management is wastewater management, it can be inferred that most waste is waste
            water.
_
                Wastewater management is the management method described by the following BRS system type codes: M071-079,
            M081-085, M089, M091-094, M099, M121-125. M129, and M134. See Appendix A for further information.

                                                   2-4

         Exhibits 2.9, 2.10, and 2.11 present the quantity of RCRA hazardous waste
   managed according to individual treatment categories.  The majority (76.3%) of the
   national total was managed in aqueous treatment units. 132 million tons were managed in
   aqueous organic treatment units, 19 million tons in aqueous inorganic treatment units, and
   74 million tons in  both inorganic and organic aqueous treatment units.  (The 97% total
   wastewater figure presented in Exhibit 2.8 includes wastewaters that were managed in
   ways other than aqueous treatment systems, including neutralization and underground
   injection).                                                     ,

         Land disposal accounted for 8.6% of the management total. Nationwide, 23 million
   tons of  hazardous waste were disposed in underground injection wells, 1.7 million tons
  , were disposed in landfills, 240 thousand tons were managed in surface impoundments,
   and 52  thousand tons were managed by land application (land farming).

         Recovery operations accounted for 2.2% of the national management total.
   Facilities reported that 3.6 million tons were managed in solvent recovery units, 1.4 million
   tons were managed in fuel blending units, 1 million tons were managed in metals recovery
   units, and 480 thousand tons were recovered by other methods such as acid regeneration,
   waste oil  recovery, and  non-solvent organic recovery.

         Thermal treatment accounted for 1.1 % of the national management total.  A total
   of 1.9 million tons were incinerated, while facilities reused 1.4 million tons as fuel in
   boilers or industrial furnaces.

                                                    Chapter 2: Waste Management
      Exhibits 2.12, 2.13, and.2.14 present the quantity of RCRA hazardous waste
managed in various treatment and disposal units, limited to waste received from off site in
1991.  Unlike wastes managed on site, the majority of which were managed in aqueous
treatment systems, the majority of wastes that were managed off site were managed by
recovery, fuel blending, stabilization, and landfilling. Eight million tons of waste (3% of
the national total) was managed at a different facility than the generating facility.  Given
that the amount of hon-wastewater managed was also 3% of the national total, these
exhibits suggest that non-wastewaters tend to be shipped to' commercial facilities or other
facilities, while wastewaters are managed on site.

      Recovery operations accounted for the largest portion  (31%) of the national
management total of waste received from off site.  1 million tons were managed in fuel
blending units, 693 thousand tons were managed in metals recovery units, facilities
reported that 463 thousand tons were managed in solvent recovery units, and 199
thousand tons were recovered by other methods such as acid regeneration, waste oil
recovery; and non-solvent organic recovery.   ,                                    •

      Land disposal accounts for 21.6% of the total amount received from off site and
managed on site.  Nationwide,  1.2 million tons of hazardous wastes were disposed in
landfills, 426 thousand tons were disposed in underground injection wells, 8 thousand tons
were managed in surface impoundments, and 600 tons were managed by land application
(land farming).                                 "•    •  •         '

      Aqueous treatment accounts for  13.9% of the total amount received from off site
and managed on site.  299 thousand tons were managed  in aqueous organic treatment
units, 475 thousand tons in aqueous inorganic treatment units, and 294 thousand tons in
both inorganic and organic aqueous treatment units.

      Thermal treatment accounts for 12.8% of the received/managed total. Facilities
reused 534 thousand tons as fuel fn boilers or industrial furnaces and 452 thousand  tons
were incinerated.

   National Biennial RCRA Hazardous Waste Report:  Based on  1991 Data	
          A comparison between the management profile for all wastes and those received
   from off site shows that wastes managed off site are managed differently.  Most wastes
   were managed by aqueous treatment.  Wastes that were received from off site were
   managed by recovery, fuel blending, stabilization,  or landfilling.

3.0   SHIPMENTS AND RECEIPTS

       In 1991, 23,560 shippers1 reported shipping 12.7 million tons of waste.  Exhibits
3.1, 3.2, and 3.3 present the quantity of waste shipped and the number of shippers in-
each EPA region.  Of the regions. Region 6 reported shipping the largest amount of waste
(2.7 million tons), while Region 5 reported the largest number of shippers (5,104).  Region
10 reported shipping the least amount of waste (244 thousand tons), while Region 8
reported the  smallest number of shippers (359).
              ' /          "-      -             • •             -   ' •     -
       Exhibits 3.4, 3.5, and 3.6 present the quantity of waste received and the number
of TSD facilities that received waste in each of the regions. Overall, 794 TSD facilities
reported receiving 8.2 million tons of waste in 1991. Region 5 reported both the largest
quantity of receipts (2.4 million tons) and the largest number of receivers  (184).  Region 4
was second  in both total receipts (880 thousand tons) and number of receivers  (67).
        term "shipment" is intended to refer to the physical transfer of waste from one facility to another. In some cases,
 however, shipments occur between facilities that neighbor each other and are under the same corporate name. In these
 instances, EPA may have assigned unique EPA ID numbers to separate industrial sites within the same plant. The resulting
 shipments may merely be movement of wastes from one portion of the plant to another.

                                                 ChaoterS: Shipments and Receipts
       Exhibits 3.10, 3.11, and 3.12 present the quantity of waste received and the
number of TSD facilities receiving waste in each of the-states.  California (1.1  million
tons), Ohio (720 thousand tons), and Michigan (560 thousand tons) reported receiving the
largest quantities of waste.  Texas (64), California (63), and Ohio (49) had the largest
number of TSD facilities receiving waste.    ,

       Overall, 794 receivers reported receiving 8.2 million tons of waste. This represents
a 4.5 million difference between the amount of waste reported  shipped and the amount
reported received. One reason for the difference may be related to  non-reporting by
neighboring facilities under the same corporate name.  For example, the largest two
shippers in the U.S., as shown in Exhibit 3.13, reported shipping 2.8 tons of hazardous
waste to neighboring facilities with the same corporate name. These receiving facilities
did not report  receiving the waste, suggesting that, while waste was transferred from one
EPA  ID to another, the management of this waste was more akin to on site treatment in an
exempt wastewter treatment unit.

       Exhibits 3.13 and 3.14 present listings of the 50 largest shippers and receivers,
respectively, in the nation. The'largest 50 shippers account for 48% of the total quantity
shipped in the U.S.  and the  50 largest receivers account for 59% of the total amount
received.         ;
