INTRODUCTION
OSWER' s Technology Innovation Office (TlO) has
a broad mandate to increase the application of inno-
vative technologies at Superfund sites and Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) corrective
action sites, and in the remediation of underground
storage tanks. An important component of such
efforts is the development of less costly and more
effective innovative treatment technologies.
/
In investigating the needs of technology developers
in the development, demonstration, and commer-
cialization of then: technologies, TIO found that
there was no single, conveniently available source
of information. TIO also found that there is potential
demand for a variety of programs, facilities, and
services. Table 1 on the previous page lists the types
of services available to developers.
Forthe purposes of this booklet, available programs,
facilities, and services have been divided into three
categories:
Assistance programs
Technology incubators and test and
evaluation (T&E) facilities
University-affiliated hazardous waste
research centers.

This booklet begins with a brief overview of the
regulatory requirements. The remainder of the docu-
ment summarizes assistance programs, facilities,
and research center services available to developers
of innovative hazardous waste treatment technolo-
gies. ' ; . ,
Information contained in this booklet was gathered
primarily from facility personnel. The descriptions
provide a snapshot of'the equipment and expertise
available. Included organizations/programs are
meant only to be illustrative of potential sources of
assistance. Developers should use this booklet as a
point of departure for'Contacting programs, facili-
ties, and services.

II. REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS
The field of hazardous waste remediation is rela-
tively unique in the extent to which research and
development, as well as full-scale technology appli-
cation, may be subject to regulation Acquiring
permits not only necessitates gathering substantial
amounts of information, but also may require a
significant lead time before they are actually issued.
These factors must be considered in developers'
planning processes.
An awareness of regulatory requirements
can assist technology developers in avoid-
ing regulatory problems, determining
market "niches," and accelerating market
acceptance.-
Local
Requirements
Since Federal and state regulatory programs are
dynamic, and becausie requirements differ among
states, it is not possible to provide definitive guid-
ance in this booklet. ^Interested parties should con-
tact appropriate EPA Regional or state regulatory
personnel for up-to-date information on regulatory
requirements. The following sections on technol-
ogy development and technology application pro-
vide some general regulatory information useful to
developers, particularly those just entering the envi-
ronmental field who may not be fully aware of
regulatory requirements.
-------
TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT
Permitting
EPA has issued a number of regulatory provisions
intended to provide relief in permitting and testing
requirements for technology developers. Since
States vary in the extent to which they have adopted
these provisions, developers should contact their
EPA Region or State to verify the applicability of
regulatory provisions in a particular jurisdiction.
Research, Development, and Demonstration
(RD&D) permits (40 CFR 264,270) are available to
technology developers who wish to conduct limited
duration and limited quantity testing on actual haz-
ardous waste. The intent of this provision is to set up
a permitting process for RD&D activities that is less
expensive and time-consuming than full-fledged
RCRA permitting.
In 1988, EPA promulgated the Treatability Study
SampleExclusionRule(40CFR261.4(e)-(f))which
conditionally exempts small-scale treatability stud-
ies from RCRA manifest and permit requirements.
The rule is intended to allow technology developers
to conduct studies on actual hazardous waste rather
than having to rely on surrogates. Such studies can
involve up to 1000 kg of non-acute hazardous waste.
A significant number of states have adopted this
provision.
On February 18,1994, EPA promulgated a revision
to the Treatability Study Sample Exclusion Rule (59
FR 8362,40 CFR Part 261). Among other things,
the revision increased the quantity limit to 10,000 kg
for contaminated media. The larger quantity limit is
intended to benefit both technology developers and
remedial action decision-makers. The revision will
not generally be effective until states adopt it.
Interested parties should contact State and Regional
personnel to determine the status of the rule and/or
its revision in their jurisdiction. It is important to
obtain a copy of the rule to ensure that compliance
requirements are understood.
Table 2 contains a list of EPA Regional contacts to
consult in determining the applicability of RD&D
permitting and the Treatability Studies Sample Ex-
clusion Rule. In addition to the Regional contacts,
personnel at a number of the facilities described in
this booklet may be able to provide assistance in
understanding regulatory requirements.

Performance Standards
Developers need to know the performance standards
potentially applicable to the technology under de-
velopment. Performance requirements for hazard-
ous waste clean up may involve clean-up goals
based on site-specific factors or the application of
pre-established technology-based standards. Stan-
dards to which a technology may be subject can be
found in EPA's Land Disposal Restrictions guide-
lines (40 CFR 268) for contaminated waste streams
and in the Maximum Contaminant Level (MCLs)
(40 CFR 14iyregulations for contaminated ground
water, (i.e., drinking water). Information on actual
clean-up levels at individual hazardous waste sites
maybeavailableatEPAHeadquartersandRegional
libraries and from state agencies.
Developers should note that in addition to meeting
specific clean-up goals for the contaminated media
in question, there also may be limits on permissible
air emissions and/or wastewater discharges.
TECHNOLOGY APPLICATION
By the time a developer achieves full-scale commer-
cialization, it is likely that regulatory requirements
are reasonably well understood; however, attention
to this complex area can prevent unpleasant sur-
prises.
For General
Regulatory Information Call the
RCRA/UST, Superfund and
EPCRA Industry Assistance Hotline
1-800-424-9346, (703) 412J801
There are provisions for relief from administrative
requirements (i.e., permits) for activities at National-
Priority List (NPL) sites being cleaned up under the
Superfund program (CERCLA/SARA); however,
substantive requirements (e.g., MCLs for drinking
water) must still be met. Depending on the nature of
the activity andits location, technology applications
at other sites may be Subject to permit requirements
under Federal RCRA;, Clean Air Act, Clean Water
Act, or underground injection control provisions of
the Safe Drinking Water Act. States generally have
equivalent provisions that also must be satisfied.
Developers of technologies for treating
polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) should be
aware that these technologies are subject to
separate regulation by EPA's Office of Toxic
Substances (40 CFR 761).

The Superfund Innovative Technology Evaluation Pro-
gram (SITE) was established in 1986 by EPA's Offices
of Research and Development (ORD) and Solid Waste
and Emergency Response (OSWER). Its purpose is to
promote the development and use of innovative tech-
nologies to clean up Superfund sites across the country.
The SITE Program has three major components:
" ' f ' - ' '
The Demonstration Pmpram - generates perfor-
mance, engineering, and cost data through selected
innovative technology demonstrations. EPA pub-
lishes an annual solicitation for proposals from
developers to demonstrate their technologies, ide-
ally at actual Superfund sites. Under this program
the vendor typically pays for the operation of the
demonstration. EPA pays for the planning, sam-
pling, and analysis, and generates reports to com-
municate the results of the demonstration.
The Emerging Technology Pmarปm - supports
bench-scale and pilot-scale development and test-
ing of innovative treatment technologies. "EPA
publishes an anntial solicitation, for participants
who may receive up to $150,000 per year for two
years. ,
The Monitoring anH Measurement TechnolnpiW
Program- supports the development and demon-
stration of innovative field-ready technologies that
detect, monitor, or measure hazardous substances
in the air, surface water, soil, wastes, and biologi-
cal tissues. (For more information contact Larv

Under CRADAs, companies may be given exclusive
rights to market and commercialize new technologies
that result from the collaboration. For industry, the key
advantage of CRADAs is the speed and ease with which
the agreements can be negotiated and signed. CRADAs
are not subject to Federal contracting or grant require-
ments, , ,
Inthepast,legalandinstitutionalbarriershaveprevented
government and industry from collaborating in develop-
ing and marketing effective technologies to prevent and

of 1986 (FTTA) removes some barriers to the joint
developmentofcommercialtreatmenttechnologies.The
FTTA allows flexible cooperativeresearch and develop-
ment agreements (CRADAs) among Federal laborato-

Environmental research, such as development of innova-
tive technologies for treating hazardous wastes, requires
the collaboration of experts hi many different fields.

ATP will funddevelopmentoflaboratory prototypes and
proof of technical feasibility, but not commercial proto-
types orproof of commercial feasibility. Grantrecipients
have been in the areas of environmental technology,
energy conservation, biotechnology, advanced materi-
als, and high-performance computing, for example.
ATP awards up to $2 million, which must be applied to
R&D costs only, over three years to individual firms.
Jointventures are not subject to the $2 million limit, but
must provide more, than 50 percent matching funds and ,
can be funded for up to five years. Any eligible U.S.
business, for-profit independent research organization,
or industry-led joint venture may apply. Universities,
government organizations, or non-profit, independent
research organizations may be funded if part of a joint
venture or as subcontractors to an eligible single appli-
cant or joint venture.
The mission of the TRP is to stimulate the transition to a
growing, integrated, national industrial capability that
provides the mostadvanced, affordable military systems
and the most competitive commercial products. The
TRP mission is accomplished through Technology De-
velopment (of dual-use product and process technolo-
gies), Technology Deployment (to establish links be-
tween existing technology capabilities for small and
medium-sized businesses), and Manufacturing Educa-
tion and Training.
The initial FY 94 TRP package included a solicitation for
environmental sensors. An additionalFY 94 solicitation
is planned. Additional information may be obtained by
calling 1-800-DUAL USE (1-800-382-5873).

The Office of International Trade (OIT) provides export
financing and business development assistance to estab-
lished and prospective small business exporters. The
Export Working Capital Program (EWCP) encourages
lenders to "bank" small-business-exporter deals by sig-
nificantly reducing the risk associated with the deals.
The EWCP can support single transactions or multiple
export sales. Under the program, the U.S. SB A can
guarantee up to 85 percent of a private sector loan up to
$750,000. Loan maturities are generally for 12 months,
with two options to renew, for a total of 36 months.
Guarantees can be extended for pfe-shipment working
capital, post shipment exposure coverage, or a combina-
tion of pre- and post-shipment financing.
OIT also works in cooperation with other Federal agen-
cies and public and private-sector groups to encourage
small business exports and to assist small businesses
seeking to export. OIT's outreach efforts include spon-
soring or supporting export training conferences and
developing "how-to" and market-specific publications
for exporters. OIT directs and coordinates SBA's ongo-
ing export initiatives, such as the Export Legal Assis-
tance Network and SBA's Automated Trade Locator

BUSINESS INCUBATORS
Business incubatorsplayasignificantroleinhelping
infant businesses survive and grow. Business
incubators are facilities that specialize in providing
small businesses with office space and shared
administrative support services, identifying sources
of capital, performing market analyses, and assisting
in business development. The National Business
Incubation Association estimates that there are over
530 incubators in North America. For more

TECHNOLOGY INCUBATORS
Some business incubators specialize in encouraging
the development and commercialization of innova-
tive technologies. These technology incubators
provide a wide variety of services to developers of
innovative hazardous waste treatment technologies
at all stages of development. Some of these facili-
ties, such as the National Environmental Technol-
ogy Applications Corporation, also serve as test and
evaluation facilities. In addition to general business
support services offered by most incubators, tech-
nology incubators may offer:
. Permitting and regulatory assistance
Laboratory space
Analytical services
Testing and evaluation facilities and
expertise
Technical expertise in many disciplines,
and experience in the hazardous waste
industry, especially when affiliated with
university research centers.
TEST AND EVALUATION FACILITIES
T&E facilities offer services to technology vendors at
thedevelopmentalandequipmentdemonstrationstages.
Federal, state, and private facilities generally have the
necessary permits to allow testing on actual hazardous
wastes atlab, bench, orpilotscales.T&EfaciHties may
have "secondary containment" controls on emissions
and effluents independent of those associated with the
technology being evaluated, that offer a safe environ-
ment to test the limits of the technology. In addition,
facilities may have the personnel and expertise to
ensure that tests are conducted in accordance with
appropriate analytical protocols. The opportunity to
perform tests at one of these facilities can offer a
developer independent validation of the technical per-
formance of an innovative technology. This can facili-
tate marketability and commercial acceptance. The
profiles of the test and evaluation facilities developed
for this booklet were prepared from information pro-
vided by the facilities.
