I. ACTIVITIES A. The hotline responded to 7,929 questions and requests for documents in September. B. Geo/Resource Consultants hired four new Information Specialists who began work on the Hotline in September. They are Deborah McKie, Joseph Nixon, Randall Eicher, and Christopher Bryant. They are now taking the Hotline training course, which is being conducted by all Hotline staff. They will conpLete their training course October 24. C. On September 11, several Information Specialists attended the public meeting on Domestic sewage. D. Pat Conn attended a CERCLA Early Enactment Workgroup Meeting on September 10. The Hotline will continue to stay in close contact with EPA staff to determine how to answer questions as the reauthorization process continues. The number of calls on reauthorization continues to go up slightly from month to month. E. Matt Straus met with the Hotline staff at noon on September 24. He spoke with the Information Specialists in two groups since half were on the phones, to address questions they have been collecting on waste identification. ------- F. Some Information Specialists attended the September 26 meeting on "On-site degradation of Hazardous Waste." G. The Hotline is preparing a detailed list of statutory deadlines coming up shortly, other scheduled program regulations, and key program areas in RCRA. We will use this as the basis for scheduling briefings with EPA staff. A copy is attached for your review. Contact Bill Rusin if you have additions. We will soon begin a similar list and scheduling process for CERCIA and UST. H.

SIGNIFICANT QUESTIONS AND RESOLVED ISSUES A. RCRA 1. Hazardous Wastes Listed Solely for Subpart C Characteristics Certain listed hazardous wastes (e.g., F003, K044, K045, and K047) are listed solely because they exhibit a characteristic specified in 40 CFR Part 261, Subpart C. The Subpart C hazardous waste characteristics are ignitability, corrosivity, reactivity, and EP toxicity. (a) If analysis indicates that a mixture of one or more of these listed wastes with a non-hazardous solid waste does not exhibit a Subpart C characteristic, can the mixture be managed as a non-hazardous, solid waste based on language in 40 CFR 261.3(a)(2)(iii)? 40 CFR 261.3(a)(2)(iii) states that a mixture of a solid waste and a hazardous waste that is listed in Subpart D solely because it exhibits a Subpart C characteristic is a hazardous waste unless the resultant mixture of a solid waste and a hazardous waste no longer exhibits any characteristic of hazardous waste identified in Subpart C. (b) Is the resultant mixture subject to the delisting requirements of 40 CFR 260.22(c)? 40 CFR 260.22^c)(2) requires that the EPA determine whether additional factors (including additional hazardous constituents listed in Part 261 Appendix VIII) other than those for which the waste was listed could cause the waste to be a hazardous waste. (c) If a waste which is listed solely because of a characteristic dilute when generated that it does not exhibit a subpart C characteristic, can it be managed as a non-hazardous waste based on 40 CFR 261.3(a)(2)(iii) or is it subject to the delisting requirements of 40 CFR 260.22(c). (a) Yes; the mixture of a non-hazardous solid waste with a listed hazardous waste, listed solely for a Subpart C characteristic, is not regulated as a hazardous waste if the resultant mixture does not exhibit any Subpart C characteristic. (b) No; the more stringent delisting criteria of 40 CFR 260.22(c)(2) do not apply to mixtures of solid and hazardous wastes where 40 CFR 261.3(a)(2)(iii) applies. (c) The dilute waste is subject to the delisting requirements of 40 CFR 260.22(c). Source: Steve Hirsch (202) 382-7706 Research: Betty Wilson ------- 2. Export of Hazardous Waste A generator plans to send an unlisted, characteristic by-product to a reclamation facility in Mexico. How do the new hazardous waste export regulations, effective November 8, 1986, apply to the export of this recyclable material? The hazardous waste export regulations are in 40 CFR Part 262, Subpart E. Revised export regulations, effective November 8, 1986, require notification of the Administrator, consent from the receiving country, special manifesting procedures, recordkeeping, exception reporting and submittal to EPA of an annual report for the export of most hazardous wastes. (See sections 262.52-262.57, promulgated in the August 8, 1986 Federal Register, 51 FR 28664.) According to §261.2(c)(3), Table 1, characteristic by-products are not defined as solid wastes, and thus not hazardous wastes, when destined for reclamation. Therefore, the characteristic by-product is not subject to Part 262, Subpart E, because it is not a hazardous waste. The burden of proof, however, is on the exporter to demonstrate and document that the material to be recycled is not a solid waste (§261-.2( f)). The exporter should be able to demonstrate that there'is a known market or disposition for the material. A copy of a recycling contract, records describing the Mexican reclamation facility, and/or evidence that the facility has a license or approval from the Mexican government would also support the exporter's claim that the recyclable material is not a solid waste (see 51 FR 28670). • Source: Carolyn Barley (202) 382-2217 Research: Jennifer Brock 3. Hazardous Waste Tank Closure and Post-Closure The owner/operator (o/o) of an interim status underground hazardous waste storage tank plans to close the tank. During the operating life of the tank, hazardous waste leaked and contaminated under- lying soils. What regulations apply in this situation? EPA published a final rule regulating tanks holding hazardous waste in the July 14, 1986 Federal Register (51 FR 25422). EPA revised the standards for hazardous waste tanks, effective January 12, 1987. EPA stated that if an o/o demonstrates that all contaminated soils cannot be practically removed or decontaminated as required in 40 CFR 265.197(a), then the o/o must close the tank system as a landfill (51 FR 25484). The o/o must perform post-closure care in accordance with the closure and post-closure care requirements that apply to landfills (40 CFR 265.310). The tank o/o must meet all of the requirements for landfills specified in Subparts G and H of Part 265 with regard to closure, post-closure, and financial responsibility. ------- Under the landfill closure and post-closure requirements (40 CFR 265.310), the o/o must comply with all post-closure requirements contained in 40 CFR 265.117 through 265.120 including maintenance and monitoring through- out the post-closure care period. Note that the above mentioned requirements for closure of hazardous waste tanks as landfills do not become effective until January 12, 1987. Tank closures occurring prior to January 12, 1987 must comply with prior regulations which may include 40 CFR §265.197 and §265.110 through §265.115. The latter sections were amended on May 2, 1986 (51 FR 16422). Section 265.11(b) requires the o/o to control, minimize or eliminate, to the extent necessary to protect human health and the environment, postclosure escape of hazardous waste, hazardous constitu- ents, leachate contaminated run off or hazardous waste decomposition products to the ground or surface waters or to the atmosphere. Since the May 2, 1986 amendments were not promulgated pursant to HSWA, they are effective in authorized states only if the states have adopted revisions to their programs to incorporate these requirements. Also, under Section 3008(h) of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, whenever the EPA Administrator determines ,that there is or has been a release of hazardous waste into the environment from a facility authorized to operate under Section 3005(e), the Administrator may issue an order requiring corrective action or any other response measure necessary to protect human health or the environment.

State Programs 40 CFR 271.1(i) allows a state's authorized RCRA program to be broader in scope or more stringent than the Federal RCRA program. What is the difference between state program elements that are broader in scope and more stringent than Federal requirements? What are some examples? The best available guidance distinguishing between "more stringent" and "broader in scope" is program implementation guidance (PIG) 84-1. A state program that is broader in scope than the Federal program either: 1) expands the size of the regulated community; or 2) incorporates program elements that do not have a Federal counterpart. Examples of requirements that are broader in scope are permits for Federally-exempt wastewater treatment units, special licenses for transporters, and listing of wastes which are not listed Federally. ------- A state program requirement that is more stringent has a direct Federal program counterpart. Examples of more stringent requirements are requiring generators to submit an annual, rather than a biennial report; shorter duration periods for permits; and stricter management standards for permitted or interim status tanks and containers. The distinction between broader and more stringent state requirements is significant because EPA may enforce a more stringent state require- ment but not a state requirement that is broader in scope. RCRA §3008 (a)(2) allows EPA to enforce any provision of an authorized state's approved program. More stringent state requirements fall into this category. State provisions that are broader in scope are not part of the Federally approved RCRA program, according to 40 CFR 271.1(1), and are therefore not enforceable by EPA (see also PIG 82-3). Source: Marty Madison (202) 382-2229 Research: Jennifer Brock 5. RCRA En forcement When can the §3008(h) authority be used? How can a §3013 order support the §3008(h) action? '.' The Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984 (HSWA) added §3008(h), one of the corrective action authorities, to the Solid Waste Disposal Act. Section 3008(h) allows the Agency to require corrective action or any other response necessary tio protect human health or the environment when a release of hazardous waste is identified at an interim status hazardous waste treatment, storage or disposal facility. Section 3008(h) provides: "Whenever on the basis of any information the Administrator determines'that there is or has been a release of hazardous waste into the environment...". Appropriate information can be obtained from a variety of sources, including data from laboratory analyses of soil, air, surface water or ground water samples, observa- tions recorded during inspections, photographs, and facts obtained from facility records. Actual sampling data is not necessary to show a release. Other evidence that a release has occurred might be a broken dike at a surface impound- ment discovered by an inspector. Less obvious indications of a release might also be adequate to make the determination. For example, the Agency could have sufficient information on the contents of a land disposal unit, the design and operating characteristics of the unit,and the hydrogeology of the area in which the unit is located to conclude that there has probably been a release to groundwater. The Agency could then order the owner or operator to perform an investigation to confirm the presence of contamination, and, after confirmation, to undertake corrective action. ------- However, to exercise the interim status corrective action authority, the Agency must first have information that there is or has been a release at the facility. Additional sources that may provide infor- mation on releases include: Inspection reports, RCRA Part A and Part B permit applications, responses to RCRA §3007 information requests, information obtained through RCRA §3013 orders, notifications required by CERCLA §103, information gathering activities conducted under CERCLA §104, and informants' tips or citizens' complaints corroborated by supporting information. A §3013 order may be used in some instances in which EPA does not have adequate information that there is or has been a release. Section 3013 provides that the Agency may compel monitoring, testing and analysis if the presence of hazardous waste at a facility or site at which hazardous waste has been treated, stored or disposed of may present a substantial hazard to human health or the environment.
