I. SIGNIFICANT QUESTIONS AND RESOLVED ISSUES - AUGUST 1988

 A.  RCRA

   1.  Source Reduction and Recycling Technical Assistance Grants For States

   On July 18, 1988 (53 FR 27077) EPA announced the availability of a new financial
   assistance  program, "Source Reduction and Recycling Technical Assistance" for
   States to develop or expand source  reduction and recycling technical assistance
   programs.  The program is a grant/cooperative agreement program designed to
   provide assistance to a limited number of states to establish or expand technical
   assistance  programs that address the reduction of pollutants from  air, land,
   surface, water and ground-water.

   How much money is available to states through this program?

      Congress appropriated $4 million  for the  source reduction and  recycling
      program.  Of the total $4 million, $3 million will be awarded to States in fiscal
      year 1989 under cooperative agreements.  Approximately 10-12 states will be
      selected through open competition.  Each selected state will be eligible to
      receive no more than $300,000.

   What procedures should a state follow to receive grant money?

      To apply for  funds, State environmental agencies must:  (1) submit a letter of
      intent by August 15, 1988; and  (2) submit  a grant applications package by
      September 30, 1988.

1.  Source Reduction and Recycling Technical Assistance Grants For States
   (Cont'd)

What types of activities are eligible for funding?

   These cooperative agreement funds are to be used specifically for establishing
   and  expanding source reduction and  recycling assistance programs  that
   address the  transfer of pollutants across all environmental media. A list of
   possible activities eligible for funding include the following:

   —Hiring personnel and/or procuring necessary expertise to support the
     establishment and development of multimedia program;
   —Providing direct technical assistance in source reduction and recycling,
     especially to small and medium-sized  firms;
   —Conducting demonstration activities and/or in-plant pilot scale studies of
     pollution  prevention technologies;
   —Developing and delivering programs to train staff to provide technical
     assistance to generators in identifying  and implementing source  reduction
     and recycling opportunities and activities;
   —Developing or expanding state technical information clearinghouses that
     contribute to national technical  transfer networks or clearinghouses;
   —Expanding and improving waste exchange programs among industry, states
     and local  governments;
   —Developing and distributing industry/process-specific technical manuals
     and/or brochures to help generators identify and implement source
     reduction  and recycling activities; and,
   —Conducting outreach activities such as presentations, workshops and
     seminars.

What are the differences between this program and RITTA?

   RITTA (Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Integrated Training and
   Technical Assistance Initiative) is  designed to provide assistance to States to
   plan  and implement  hazardous waste training and  technical assistance
   activities in support of the  States'  RCRA programs.  The activities funded
   under RITTA must include:   (1) the development of a long term plan for
   training  and technical assistance activities; (2) delivery of  RCRA program
   training  activities for State regulators; and (3) implementation of an initial
   pilot technical assistance project in waste minimization.

   The cooperative agreement funds will be awarded to States to establish multi-
   media waste reduction technical  assistance programs.  Unlike RITTA, this
   program is not specifically limited to wastes regulated under RCRA.

B. CERCLA

  2. Disposal of CERCLA Samples

  Who is responsible  for the disposal  of hazardous waste samples taken from
  Superfund sites during a Site Investigation or a Remedial Investigation, the
  Contract Laboratory or the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)?

    It is sometimes difficult to determine whether a waste material, which has
    already been disposed of, was a RCRA hazardous waste. The January 19,1983
    Federal  Register (48 FR  2510)  explains that "if it cannot be determined
    whether  a discharged material is a listed hazardous waste, Sections 261.20
    through 261.24 describe criteria for determining whether a solid waste exhibits
    the hazardous waste characteristics of ignitability, corrosivity, reactivity, or
    toxicity."

    If laboratory samples for  waste characterization are handled in accordance
    with the  requirements in 40 CFR Section 261.4(d), they are not subject to the
    RCRA hazardous waste regulations during collection, transport,  and analysis
    in the laboratory.  However, if the  handling of the samples by the laboratory
    constitutes treatment or storage  of hazardous  wastes prior to disposal, then
    the laboratory must comply with applicable RCRA requirements (46 FR 47428,
    September 25, 1981).  The conditional exemption from RCRA requirements
    specifically applies to samples of "solid waste" (as compared to "hazardous
    waste") or samples of "water, soil or air," which are collected for the sole
    purpose of testing to determine the waste's characteristics or composition.

    Once the  sample  is no longer needed for enforcement purposes, the issue of
    who is responsible for the sample's disposal is raised.  Contract Laboratory
    Program  (CLP) contracts  are generally written such that the laboratory
    specifically assumes generator responsibilities  under RCRA when the waste
    samples are found to include RCRA hazardous wastes.  The laboratories also
    assume responsibility for disposal of waste samples which are not hazardous
    wastes.

    The disposal of  laboratory samples of CERCLA  waste is  not specifically
    addressed by  the revised  off-site  policy  of November  13,  1987, which
    "describes procedures that should be observed when a response action under
    CERCLA... involves off-site storage, treatment, or disposal of CERCLA wastes"
    (OSWER  Directive No. 9834.11).  However, the Office of Solid Waste and
    Emergency  Response  (OSWER) has recommended that Federal  facilities
    comply with this  policy for the disposal of their hazardous waste, and the
    Environmental  Compliance  Coordinators for  Regional,  Research, and
    Program Laboratories have been directed to ensure that EPA laboratories do

-------
2. Disposal of CERCLA Samples (Cont'd)

   so [September 2, 1986, memo  from Barbara McGuinness to EPA Laboratory
   Directors].

   Consistent with the CERCLA off-site policy, Contract Laboratories which are
   disposing of CERCLA samples are limited in their disposal options. If the
   samples are found to include RCRA hazardous wastes, the shipment must be
   to a facility which is authorized to receive RCRA hazardous wastes, and that
   has been determined to be acceptable to receive CERCLA wastes under the
   revised off-site policy. If a sample contains a CERCLA hazardous substance
   which is not a RCRA hazardous waste,  the revised off-site policy would
   require disposal in a unit that is  authorized under applicable law to receive
   such wastes and that has been found to be acceptable under the off-site policy.

3. CERCLA Off-Site Policy

Is the CERCLA off-site policy applicable to hazardous substance response actions
performed by private parties who are not acting under a Section 104/106 order?

   The off-site policy "describes procedures that should be observed when  a
   response  action under the  Comprehensive  Environmental  Response
   Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) or Section 7003 of RCRA involves
   the  off-site storage,  treatment  or  disposal of CERCLA wastes" (Revised
   Procedures for Implementing Off-site  Response Actions, OSWER Directive
   No. 9834.11).  The policy applies to all response actions taken  under the
   authority of CERCLA, RCRA Section 7003, or Clean Water Act Section 311,
   and to all response actions funded in whole, or in part by CERCLA.  It does
   (for non-petroleum wastes) not apply to state-lead enforcement actions (even
   at National Priorities List sites) if no CERCLA funds are involved, and does
   not  apply to  voluntary PRP actions taken outside of a CERCLA or RCRA
   Section 7003 order (see OSWER Directive No. 9834.11 at p.3).

4.  Technical Assistance Grants

If a State is administering the Technical Assistance Grant (TAG) program in lieu
of the EPA, would a grant recipient still have to provide 35 percent of the total
costs of the Technical Assistance Grant project if the State provides a technical
advisor to the recipient in lieu of a cash grant?

   Yes.  Pursuant to Section  117(e) of CERCLA, as amended, the EPA may
   provide technical assistance grants to groups  of  individuals affected by
   releases or threatened releases from sites listed on the National Priorities List
   (NPL)  or  proposed for listing where a response action is underway.  The
   March 24, 1988 Federal Register (53 FR  9736)  promulgated interim final
   regulations  for implementing EPA's TAG  program.   According to these
   regulations,  eligible recipients  must  meet  a  number  of requirements,
   including a contribution of 35 percent of the total costs of the technical
   assistance grant project (see 40 CFR Section 35.4085(a)).

   EPA will  administer  the TAG program in accordance with the regulations
   found  in  the  March  24, 1988 Federal Register unless a  State wishes to
   implement its own program.  According to 40 CFR Section 35.4015(c), States
   wishing to administer the TAG program must inform the appropriate EPA
   Regional Administrator.  If the State elects to administer the program it must
   do  so  in  conformity  with  the regulations specified in the March 24, 1988
   Federal Register (53 FR 9749). States choosing to administer the TAG program
   will receive technical assistance  funds and  administrative costs from the
   Agency under a cooperative  agreement (see 40  CFR Section  35.4015(d)).
   Furthermore, following the criteria established in the March 24, 1988 Federal
   Register, the State may select qualified applicants and  provide technical
   assistance in either of two ways:  a State may provide technical assistance
   funds to an eligible group through a subgrant, and reimburse the recipient
   group for it's expenditures as provided in 40 CFR Section 30.4080 of the March
   24,  1988 Federal Register (53 FR 9749, 40 CFR Section 35.4015(d)(l)); or use
   technical assistance grant funds to obtain the services  of a technical  advisor
   for  the recipient.

   Even though the  State will be providing the services of a technical  advisor
   instead of providing  technical assistance funds to a recipient, the matching
   requirement specified in 40 CFR Section 35.4085(a) is still applicable.

  5. Section 302:  Determining Threshold Planning Quantities

  A petroleum company is drilling for oil contained in the ground below their
  facility. Would the hydrogen sulfide present in the ground be counted toward
  the threshold planning quantity (TPQ) for this extremely hazardous substance
  (EHS)?

  Also, if there is a reportable release of this EHS above the reportable quantity
  (RQ) during this operation, would this release need to be reported under Section
  302/304 of Title III?

    For the purposes of emergency planning, Section 302  of Title III, the  EPA is
    considering the  issue  of whether to include amounts  of EHS's naturally
    present within facility  grounds in determining if the TPQ has been  met or
    exceeded.  This issue is not addressed in the regulations, and at this time has
    not been resolved by EPA.

    If the  facility is generating hydrogen sulfide during  its  drilling operations,
    then the quantity they  generate must be included in the TPQ determination
    for hydrogen sulfide.  The facility  is producing or  causing the hydrogen
    sulfide to be present and is therefore subject to Section 302 reporting.

    A release of hydrogen sulfide above its RQ that affects persons off-site must be
    reported under Section 304 of Title III since the release would occur from the
    facility.  The quantity of such releases may be determined.

  6. Sections 311/312: Multiple Facility Reporting

  A petroleum company owns many oil wells on a large oil field. Each well is on
  its own plot of land. These plots of land are not adjacent or contiguous and the
  oil field itself spans many local planning districts.  For purposes of Sections
  311/312 reporting, is each oil well a separate facility and must separate reports be
  filed for each oil well?

    The definition of facility for Sections  311/312  includes  "all buildings,
    equipment, structures, and other stationary items that are located on a single
    site or on contiguous or adjacent sites that are owned or operated by the same
    person" (52 FR 38364).  Therefore, unless the well properties are adjacent or
    contiguous, each well is a separate facility. The Title III definition of facility

-------
   6.  Sections 311/312:  Multiple Facility Reporting (Cont'd)

   applies to the land surface only; the fact that one oil company may own the
   subsurface rights of an entire oil field does not make the field one "facility."

   Under Sections 311/312, a report must be prepared for each facility owned or
   operated  by  the  same  person.   The regulations stipulate that certain
   information must  be provided to the specified agencies.  Nowhere do the
   regulations stipulate a separate report for each facility.  Since EPA does not
   stipulate a separate report for each facility, EPA does not prohibit one report
   being filed for similar multiple  facilities, so long  as the report satisfies the
   statutory information requirements.

   Filing one  report for  similar  multiple  facilities is  a  kind  of  "generic
   reporting." A generic report would consist of one submission for each section
   - one MSDS  for each reportable chemical  and one Tier I/II - which would
   provide the required information on each well (facility).  However,  a generic
   report may only be submitted for similar facilities.  In order for facilities to be
   considered similar, they must have present the same extremely hazardous
   substances and hazardous substances  on-site  at any  one time in similar
   amounts.  If the facilities are not similar, the generic report would not contain
   the facility-specific  required information and the facility  would not be
   considered in compliance with Sections 311/312.

   When submitting a report under Sections 311/312, the report must be sent to
   the SERC, the LEPC  and the fire department.  In the case of a generic report
   being submitted, the report must be submitted to every  SERC, LEPC and fire
   department under whose jurisdiction the similar facility crosses.

   In  the case of reporting for an oil field and oil wells therein, generic reporting
   will prove beneficial since most wells are similar on a given field. Simply
   make sure that the wells are in fact similar, that the generic report provides
   the facility-specific information required and that  the report is submitted to
   all relevant State and local agencies. In that manner, the generic report will
   provide  all  facility-specific information to  all  relevant  State  and  local
   agencies.
