How to Notify U.S. EPA of Your Waste Activities
I. How to Determine if You Handle a
Regulated Hazardous Waste
Persons who generate, transport, treat, store, or
dispose of solid wastes are responsible for
determining if their solid waste is a hazardous waste
regulated under the Resource Conservation and
Recoveiy Act (RCRA). In addition, persons who
recycle secondary materials must also determine
whether those materials are solid and hazardous
wastes under the provisions of RCRA. If you need
help making this determination after reading these
instructions, contact the addressee listed for your
State in Section III. C. of these instructions.
You will need to refer to 40 CFR Part 261 of the Code
of Federal Regulations (copy enclosed, see Section
VII) to help you decide if the waste you handle is
regulated under RCRA.*
To determine if you are regulated under RCRA, ask
yourself the following questions:
A) Do I Handle A Solid Waste?
Section 261.2 of the Code of Federal Regulations
(hereafter referred to as CFR) defines "solid waste"
as any discarded material that is not excluded under
Section 261.4(a) or that is not excluded by variance
granted under Sections 260.30 and 260.31. A
discarded material is any material which is:
1) abandoned, as explained in 261.2(b); or
2) recycled, as explained in 261.2(c); or
3) considered inherently waste-like as explained
in 261.2(c).
B) Has My Solid Waste Been Excluded From The
Regulations Under Section 261.4?
The list of general exclusions can be found in Section
261.4 of the CFR. If the solid waste that you handle
has been excluded, either by rule or special variance,
then you do not need to notify U.S. EPA for that
waste.
1) by specifically listing the waste and assigning
it a unique EPA Waste Code Number; or
2) by regulating it because it possesses any of
four hazardous characteristics and assigning
it a generic EPA Waste Code Number.
C) Is My Solid Waste Specifically Listed as a
Hazardous Waste?
Sections 261.31 — 261.33 of the CFR identify certain
solid wastes that U.S. EPA has specifically listed as
hazardous. Persons who handle listed hazardous
waste are subject to regulation and must notify U.S.
EPA of their activities unless they are exempted as
discussed below. Refer to this section of the CFR
(enclosed as Section VII) to see if your waste is
included as a "listed waste."
D) Does My Solid Waste Possess a Hazardous
Characteristic?
Even if your waste is not specifically listed as a
hazardous waste, it may still be hazardous because it
exhibits certain hazardous characteristics. These
characteristics are —
1) Ignitability;
2) Corrosivity;
3) Reactivity; and
4) Toxicity Characteristic.
Sections 261.20 through 261.24 of the CFR explain
what each of the characteristics is and outlines the
testing procedures you should use to determine if
your waste meets these characteristics. Persons who
handle characteristic waste that is regulated must
notify U.S. EPA of their activities unless they are
exempted, as discussed below. If you are handling a
newly regulated waste (see Toxicity Characteristics
Rule in Section VIII) and have already notified EPA
prior to that activity and already have an EPA
Identification Number, no re-notification is required.
E) Has My Hazardous Waste Been Exempted From
The Regulations?
If your solid waste was not excluded from regulation, The list of exemptions can be found in 261.5 and
you need to determine if it is a hazardous waste that 261.6(a)(3) of the CFR. If the hazardous waste that
U.S. EPA regulates. The U.S. EPA regulates you handle has been exempted, then you do not need
hazardous waste two ways: to notify U.S. EPA for that waste.
* Many States have requirements that vary from the Federal regulations. These State regulations may be more strict than the Federal requirements
bv identifying additional wastes as hazardous, or may not yet include all wastes currently regulated under RCRA. It is your responsibility to comply
with all regulations that apply to you. For more information on state requirements, you are strongly urged to contact the appropriate addressee listed
for your State in Section III of these instructions.

II. How To Determine if You Must Notify of
Your Waste-as-Fuel Activities
Persons who market or burn hazardous waste or used
oil (and any material produced from or otherwise
containing hazardous waste or used oil) for energy
recovery are required to notify U.S. EPA (or their
State agency if the State is authorized to operate its
own hazardous waste program) and obtain a U.S.
EPA Identification Number unless they are exempt as
outlined below (see Subparts D and E of 40 CFR Part
266). Hazardous waste and used oil are considered to
be burned for energy recovery if they are burned in a
boiler or industrial furnace that is not regulated as a
hazardous waste incinerator under Subpart O of 40
CFR Parts 264 or 265.
Even if you have previously notified U.S. EPA of
hazardous waste activities and have a U.S. EPA
Identification Number, you must renotify to identify
your waste-as-fuel activities. (You do not have to
renotify for those activities you previously notified
for, only for any newly regulated activities.) If you
have previously notified, be sure to complete Item I
"First or Subsequent Notification," by marking an
"X" in the box for subsequent notification. Fill in
your U.S. EPA Identification Number in the spaces
provided. (Your U.S. EPA Identification Number will
not change.)
Who is Exempt From Waste-As-Fuel Notification
Requirements?
1) Ordinary Generators (and initial transporters):
Generators (and initial transporters who pick
up used oil or hazardous waste from generators)
are not marketers subject to the notification
requirement // they do not market hazardous
waste fuel or used oil fuel directly to a burner. In
such situations, it is the recipient of that fuel
who makes the decision to market the materials
as a fuel, (typically after processing or
blending), and it is the recipient who must
notify.
In addition, used oil generators or initial
transporters who send their oil to a person who
processes or blends it to produce used oil fuel
and who incidently burns used oil to provide
energy for the processing or blending are also
exempt from the notification requirement. This
is because such persons are generally
considered to be primarily fuel processors and
marketers, but only incidental burners.
2) Persons who Market or Burn Specification Used
Oil Fuel: Used oil fuel that meets the
specification provided under 40 CFR 266.40(e)
is essentially exempt from the regulations.
However, the person who first claims that the
used oil meets the specification is subject to the
notification and certain other requirements. The
burner (or any subsequent marketer) is not
required to notify.
3) Used Oil Generators Operating Used-Oil-Fired
Space Heaters: Persons who burn their used oil
(and used oil received from individuals who are
do-it yourself oil changers) in used-oil-fired
space heaters are exempt from the notification
requirement provided that the device is vented
to the outdoors.
4) Specific Exemptions Provided by 40 CFR 261.6:
The rules provide conditional exemptions for
several specific waste-derived fuels under
261.6(a)(3), including fuels produced by
petroleum refineries that recycle refinery
hazardous waste, and coke and coal tar derived
from coal coking wastes by the iron and steel
industry. Marketers and burners of these
exempted fuels are not subject to the
notification requirement.

III. How to File EPA Form 8700-12,
"Notification of Regulated Waste
Activity?"
If your waste activity is regulated under RCRA, you
must notify the U.S. EPA of your activities and obtain
a U.S. EPA Identification Number. You can satisfy
both of these requirements by completing and signing
the enclosed notification form and mailing it to the
appropriate address listed in Part C of this section.
Per the Hazardous Waste Import Regulations, 40
CFR 262.60, foreign generators should not apply for a
Federal I.D. number. These regulations state that
when filling out a U.S. manifest, you must include the
name and address of the foreign generator, and the
name and address and EPA I.D. number of the
importer. Please contact U.S. firms involved with
your shipments and determine which firm will serve as
importer.
If this is a subsequent notification, you need to
complete Items I, II, III, VI, VII, VIII and X and any
other sections that are being added to (i.e., newly
regulated activities) or altered (i.e., installation
contact). All other sections may be left blank.
A) How Many Forms Should I File?
A person who is subject to the hazardous waste
regulations and/or the waste-as-fuel regulations
under RCRA should submit one notification form
per site or location. If you conduct hazardous
waste activities at more than one location, you
must submit a separate form for each location. (If
you previously notified for hazardous waste
activities and are now notifying for waste-as-fuel
activities at the same location, you must submit a
second form, but your U.S. EPA Identification
Number will remain the same.)
If you only transport hazardous waste and do not
generate, market, burn, treat, store, or dispose of
these wastes, you may submit one form which
covers all transportation activities your company
conducts. This form should be sent to the
appropriate address (listed in Part C) that serves
the State where your company has its
headquarters or principal place of business.
However, if you are a transporter who also
generates, treats, stores, or disposes of hazardous
wastes, you must complete and submit separate
notification forms to cover each location.
B) Can I Request That This Information Be Kept
Confidential?
All information you submit in a notification can be
released to the public, according to the Freedom of
Information Act, unless it is determined to be
confidential by U.S. EPA pursuant to 40 CFR Part
2. Since notification information is very general,
the U.S. EPA believes it is unlikely that any
information in your notification could qualify to be
protected from release. However, you may make a
claim of confidentiality by printing the word
"CONFIDENTIAL" on both sides of the
Notification Form and on any attachments.
EPA will take action on the confidentiality claims
in accordance with 40 CFR Part 2.
C) Where Should I Send my Completed Form?
Listed alphabetically, on the following pages, are
the addresses and phone numbers of the proper
contacts in each State where you can get additional
information and more forms, and where you
should mail your completed forms. As shown
here, the U.S. EPA and many States have arranged
for the States to answer your questions and receive
completed forms. In a few instances, the workload
is shared between U.S. EPA and the State, or
handled by U.S. EPA alone. To avoid delay and
confusion, follow the directions for your State very
carefully.

IV. Line-by-Line Instructions for Completing
EPA Form 8700-12
Type or print in black ink all items except Item X,
"Signature," leaving a blank box between words. The
boxes are spaced at 1/4" intervals which
accommodate elite type (12 characters per inch).
When typing, hit the space bar twice between
characters. If you print, place each character in a box.
Abbreviate if necessary to stay within the number of
boxes allowed for each Item. If you must use
additional sheets, indicate clearly the number of the
Item on the form to which the information on the
separate sheet applies.
(NOTE: When submitting a subsequent notification
form, notifiers must complete in their entirety Items I, II,
III, VI, VII, VIII andX. Other sections that are being
added to (i.e., newly regulated activities) or altered (i.e.,
installation contact) must also be completed. All other
sections may be left blank.)
Item I — Installation's EPA ID Number:
Place an "X" in the appropriate box to indicate
whether this is your first or a subsequent notification
for this site. If you have filed a previous notification,
enter the EPA Identification Number assigned to this
site in the boxes provided. Leave EPA ID Number
blank if this is your first notification for this site.
Note: When the owner of a facility changes, the new
owner must notify U.S. EPA of the change, even if the
previous owner already received a U.S. EPA
Identification Number. Because the U.S. EPA ID
Number is "site-specific," the new owner will keep the
existing ID number. If the facility moves to another
location, the owner/operator must notify EPA of this
change. In this instance a new U.S. EPA
Identification Number will be assigned, since the
facility has changed locations.

(i.e., they are physically formed into one
manufactured or assembled unit);
(3) the unit continuously maintains an energy
recovery efficiency of at least 60 percent,
calculated in terms of the recovered energy
compared with the thermal value of the fuel;
(4) the unit exports and utilizes at least 75 percent
of the recovered energy, calculated on an annual
basis (excluding recovered heat used internally
in the same unit, for example, to preheat fuel or
combustion air or drive fans or feedwater
pumps); and

Transporter means a person engaged in the off-site
transportation of hazardous waste by air, rail,
highway, or water.
Treatment means any method, technique, or process,
including neutralization, designed to change the
physical, chemical, or biological character or
composition of any hazardous waste so as to
neutralize such waste, or so as to recover energy or
material resources from the waste, or so as to render
such waste nonhazardous, or less hazardous; safer to
transport, store or dispose of; or amenable for
recovery, amenable for storage, or reduced in volume.
Such term includes any activity or processing
designed to change the physical form or composition
of hazardous waste so as to render it nonhazardous.
Used Oil means any oil that has been refined from
crude oil, used, and as a result of such use, is
contaminated by physical or chemical impurities.
Wastes that contain oils that have not been used (e.g.,
fuel oil storage tank bottom clean-out wastes) are not
used oil unless they are mixed with used oil.
Used Oil Fuel means any used oil burned (or destined
to be burned) for energy recovery including any fuel
produced from used oil by processing, blending or
other treatment, and that does not contain hazardous
waste (other than that generated by a small quantity
generator and exempt from regulation as hazardous
waste under provisions of 40 CFR 261.5). Used oil fuel
may itself exhibit a characteristic of hazardous waste
and remain subject to regulation as used oil fuel
provided it is not mixed with hazardous waste.
Utility Boiler means a boiler that is used to produce
electricity, steam or heated or cooled air or other gases
or fluids for sale.
Waste Fuel means hazardous waste fuel or off-
specification used oil fuel.

VI. EPA Hazardous Waste Numbers for
Waste Streams Commonly Generated by
Small Quantity Generators
The Environmental Protection Agency recognizes
that generators of small quantities of hazardous
waste, many of which are small businesses, may not be
familiar with the manner in which hazardous waste
materials are identified in the Code of Federal
Regulations. This insert has been assembled in order
to aid small quantity generators in determining for
their wastes the EPA Hazardous Waste Numbers
that are needed to complete the "Notification of
Regulated Waste Activity," Form 8700-12.
This insert is composed of two tables. Table 1 lists
eighteen general industry categories that contain
small quantity generators. For each of these
categories, commonly generated hazardous waste
streams are identified. Table 2 lists EPA Hazardous
Waste Numbers for each waste stream identified in
Table 1.
To use this insert:
1. Locate your industry in Table 1 to identify the
waste streams common to your activities.
2. Find each of your waste streams in Table 2,
and review the more detailed descriptions of
typical wastes to determine which waste
streams actually result from your activities.
3. If you determine that a waste stream does
apply to you, report the 4-digit EPA
Hazardous Waste Number in Item IX. B. of
Form 8700-12, "Notification of Regulated
Waste Activity."
The industries and waste streams described here do
not provide a comprehensive list but rather serve as a
guide to potential small quantity generators in
determining which of their wastes, if any, are
hazardous. Except for the pesticide category, this
insert does not include EPA Hazardous Waste
Numbers for commercial chemical products that are
hazardous when discarded unused. These chemicals
and their EPA Hazardous Waste Number are listed
in 40 CFR 261.33.
If the specific Hazardous Waste Number that should
be applied to your waste stream is unclear, please
refer to 40 CFR Part 261, reprinted in Section VII of
this notification package. In those cases where more
than one Hazardous Waste Number is applicable, all
should be used. If you have any questions, or if you
are unable to determine the proper EPA Hazardous
Waste Numbers for your wastes, contact your state
hazardous waste management agency as listed in
Section III of this notification package, or the
RCRA/Superfund Hotline at 1-800-424-9346.

Table 2
Typical Waste Streams and EPA Hazardous Waste Numbers
ACIDS/BASES:
Acids, bases or mixtures having a pH less than or equal to 2 or greater than or equal to 12.5, or liquids that corrode
steel at a rate greater than 0.25 inches per year, are considered to be corrosive (for a complete description of
corrosive wastes, see 40 CFR 261.22, Characteristic of corrosivity). All corrosive materials and solutions have the
EPA Hazardous Waste Number of D002. The following are some examples of the more commonly used
corrosives:
Examples of Corrosive Waste Streams
Acetic Acid Oleum
Ammonium Hydroxide Perchloric Acid
Chromic Acid Phosphoric Acid
Hydrobromic Acid Potassium Hydroxide
Hydrochloric Acid Sodium Hydroxide
Hydrofluoric Acid Sulfuric Acid
Nitric Acid
DRY CLEANING FILTRATION RESIDUES:
Cooked powder residue (perchloroethylene plants only), still residues and spent cartridge filters containing
perchloroethylene or valclene are hazardous and have an EPA Hazardous Waste Number of F002.
Still residues containing petroleum solvents with a flash point less than 140° F are also considered hazardous, and
have an EPA Hazardous Waste Number of D001.
HEAVY METALS/INORGANICS:
Heavy Metals and other inorganic waste materials exhibit the characteristic of EP Toxicity and are considered
hazardous if the extract from a representative sample of the waste has any of the specific constituent
concentrations as shown in 40 CFR 261.24, Table 1. This may include dusts, solutions, wastewater treatment
sludges, paint wastes, waste inks and other such materials which contain heavy metals/inorganics (note that
wastewater treatment sludges from electroplating operations containing nickel and cyanide, are identified as
F006). The following are EP Toxic:
Waste Stream EPA Hazardous Waste Number
Arsenic D004
Barium D005
Cadmium D006
Chromium D007
Lead D008
Mercury D009
Selenium D010
Silver DO 11
IGNITABLE WASTES:
Ignitable wastes include any flammable liquids, nonliquids, and contained gases that have a flashpoint less than
140F (for a complete description of ignitable wastes, see 40 CFR 261.21, Characteristic of ignitability). Examples
are spent solvents (see also solvents), solvent still bottoms, ignitable paint wastes (paint removers, brush cleaners
- 18-

This includes solvent washes and sludges, caustic washes and sludges, or waster washes and sludges from cleaning
tubs and equipment used in the formulation of ink from pigments, driers, soaps, and stabilizers containing
chromium and lead. All ink sludges have an EPA Hazardous Waste Number of K086.
LEAD ACID BATTERIES:
Used lead acid batteries should be reported on the notification form only if they are not recycled. Used lead acid
batteries that are recycled do not need to be counted in determining the quantity of waste that you generate per
month, nor do they require a hazardous waste manifest when shipped off your premises. (Note: Special
requirements do apply if you recycle your batteries on your own premises — see 40 CFR Part 266.)
Waste Stream EPA Hazardous Waste Number
Lead Dross D008
Spent Acids D002
Lead Acid Batteries D008, D002
ORGANIC WASTES:
See Section VIII, Table 1-Maximum Concentration of Contaminants for the Toxicity Characteristic for a list of
constituents and regulatory levels.
PESTICIDES:
Pesticides, pesticide residues, washing and rinsing solutions and dips which contain constituent concentrations at
or above Toxicity Characteristic regulatory levels (see Section VIII) are hazardous waste. Pesticides that have an
oral LD50 toxicity (rat) < 50 mg/kg, inhalation LC50 toxicity (rat) < 2 mg/L or a dermal LD 50 toxicity (rabbit)
- 19 -

REACTTVES:
Reactive wastes include reactive materials or mixtures which are unstable, react violently with or form explosive
mixtures with water, generate toxic gases or vapors when mixed with water (or when exposed to pH conditions
between 2 and 12.5 in the case of cyanide or sulfide bearing wastes), or are capable of detonation or explosive
reaction when irritated or heated (for a complete description of reactive wastes, see 40 CFR 261.23, Characteristic
of reactivity). Unless otherwise specified, all reactive wastes have an EPA Hazardous Waste Number of D003.
The following materials are commonly considered to be reactive:
Waste Stream EPA Hazardous Waste Number
Acetyl Chloride D003
Chromic Acid D003
Cyanides D003
Organic Peroxides D003
Perchlorates D003
Permanganates D003
Hypochlorites D003
Sulfides D003
SPENT PLATING AND CYANIDE WASTES:
Spent plating wastes contain cleaning solutions and plating solutions with caustics, solvents, heavy metals and
cyanides. Cyanide wastes may also be generated from heat treatment operations, pigment production and
manufacturing of anti-caking agents. Plating wastes are generally Hazardous Waste Numbers F006-F009. Heat
treatment wastes are generally Hazardous Waste Numbers F010-F012. See 40 CFR 261.31 for a more complete
description of plating wastes.
WOOD PRESERVING AGENTS:
Compounds or mixtures used in wood preserving, including the wastewater treatment sludge from wastewater
treatment operations, are considered hazardous. Bottom sediment sludges from the treatment of wastewater
processes that use creosote or pentachlorophenol are hazardous, and have an EPA Hazardous Waste Number of
K001. Unless otherwise indicated, specific wood preserving components are:

Subpart A—General
§ 261.1 Purpose and scope.
(a) This part identifies those solid
wastes which are subject to regulation
as hazardous wastes under Parts 262
through 265, 268, and Parts 270, 271,
and 124 of this chapter and which are
subject to the notification require-
ments of section 3010 of RCRA. In
this part:
(1) Subpart A defines the terms
"solid waste" and "hazardous waste",
identifies those wastes which are ex-
cluded from regulation under Parts
262 through 266, 268 and 270 and es-
tablishes special management require-
ments for hazardous waste produced
by conditionally exempt small quanti-
ty generators and hazardous waste
which is recycled.
(2) Subpart B sets forth the criteria
used by EPA to identify characteris-
tics of hazardous waste and to list par-
ticular hazardous wastes.
(3) Subpart C identifies characteris-
tics of hazardous waste.
(4) Subpart D lists particular haz-
ardous wastes.
(b)(l) The definition of solid waste
contained in this part applies only to
wastes that also are hazardous for pur-
poses of the regulations implementing
Subtitle C of RCRA. For example, it
does not apply to materials (such as
non-hazardous scrap, paper, textiles,
or rubber) that are not otherwise haz-
ardous wastes and that are recycled.
(2) This part identifies only some of
the materials which are solid wastes
and hazardous wastes under sections
3007, 3013, and 7003 of RCRA. A mate-
rial which is not defined as a solid
waste in this part, or is not a hazard-
ous waste identified or listed in this
part, is still a solid waste and a hazard-
ous waste for purposes of these sec-
tions if:
(i) In the case of sections 3007 and
3013, EPA has reason to believe that
-------
Environmental Protection Agency
§261.2
the material may be a solid waste
within the meaning of section 1004(27)
of RCRA and a hazardous waste
within the meaning of section 1004(5)
of RCRA; or
(ii) In the case of section 7003, the
statutory elements are established.
(c) For the purposes of §§ 261.2 and
261.6:
(DA "spent material" is any materi-
al that has been used and as a result
of contamination can no longer serve
the purpose for which it was produced
without processing;
(2) "Sludge" has the same meaning
used in § 260.10 of this chapter;
(3) A "by-product" is a material that
is not one of the primary products of a
production process and is not solely or
separately produced by the production
process. Examples are process residues
such as slags or distillation column
bottoms. The term does not include a
co-product that is produced for the
general public's use and is ordinarily
used in the form it is produced by the
process.
(4) A material is "reclaimed" if it is
processed to recover a usable product,
or if it is regenerated. Examples are
recovery of lead values from spent bat-
teries and regeneration of spent sol-
vents.
(5) A material is "used or reused" if
it is either:
(i) Employed as an ingredient (in-
cluding use as an intermediate) in an
industrial process to make a product
(for example, distillation bottoms
from one process used as feedstock in
another process). However, a material
will not satisfy this condition if dis-
tinct components of the material are
recovered as separate end products (as
when metals are recovered from
metal-containing secondary materials);
or
(ii) Employed in a particular func-
tion or application as an effective sub-
stitute for a commercial product (for
example, spent pickle liquor used as
phosphorous precipitant and sludge
conditioner in wastewater treatment).
(6) "Scrap metal" is bits and pieces
of metal parts (e.g.,) bars, turnings,
rods, sheets, wire) or metal pieces that
may be combined together with bolts
or soldering (e.g., radiators, scrap auto-
mobiles, railroad box cars), which
when worn or superfluous can be recy-
cled.
(7) A material is "recycled" if it is
used, reused, or reclaimed.
(8) A material is "accumulated spec-
ulatively" if it is accumulated before
being recycled. A material is not accu-
mulated speculatively, however, if the
person accumulating it can show that
the material is potentially recyclable
and has a feasible means of being recy-
cled; and that—during the calendar
year (commencing on January 1)—the
amount of material that is recycled, or
transferred to a different site for recy-
cling, equals at least 75 percent by
weight or volume of the amount of
that material accumulated at the be-
ginning of the period. In calculating
the percentage of turnover, the 75 per-
cent requirement is to be applied to
each material of the same type (e.g.,
slags from a single smelting process)
that is recycled in the same way (i.e.,
from which the same material is recov-
ered or that is used in the same way).
Materials accumulating in units that
would be exempt from regulation
under § 261.4(c) are not be included in
making the calculation. (Materials
that are already defined as solid
wastes also are not to be included in
making the calculation.) Materials are
no longer in this category once they
are removed from accumulation for re-
cycling, however.

§ 261.2 Definition of solid waste.
(a)(l) A solid waste is any discarded
material that is not excluded by
§ 261.4(a) or that is not excluded by
variance granted under §§ 260.30 and
260.31.
(2) A discarded material is any mate-
rial which is:
(i) Abandoned, as explained in para-
graph (b) of this section; or
(ii) Recycled, as explained in para-
graph (c) of this section; or
(iii) Considered inherently waste-
like, as explained in paragraph (d) of
this section.
(b) Materials are solid waste if they
are abandoned by being:
-------
§261.2
40 CFR Ch. I (7-1-89 Edition)
(1) Disposed of; or
(2) Burned or incinerated; or
(3) Accumulated, stored, or treated
(but not recycled) before or in lieu of
being abandoned by being disposed of,
burned, or incinerated.
(c) Materials are solid wastes if they
are recycled—or accumulated, stored,
or treated before recycling—as speci-
fied in paragraphs (c)(l) through (4)
of this section.
(1) Used in a manner constituting
disposal, (i) Materials noted with a "*"
in Column 1 of Table I are solid wastes
when they are:
(A) Applied to or placed on the land
in a manner that constitutes disposal;
or
(B) Used to produce products that
are applied to or placed on the land or
are otherwise contained in products
that are applied to or placed on the
land (in which cases the product itself
remains a solid waste).
(ii) However, commercial chemical
products listed in § 261.33 are not solid
wastes if they are applied to the land
and that is their ordinary manner of
use.
(2) Burning for energy recovery, (i)
Materials noted with a "*" in column 2
of Table 1 are solid wastes when they
are:
(A) Burned to recover energy;
(B) Used to produce a fuel or are
otherwise contained in fuels (in which
cases the fuel itself remains a solid
waste).
(ii) However, commercial chemical
products listed in § 261.33 are not solid
wastes if they are themselves fuels.
(3) Reclaimed. Materials noted with
a "*" in column 3 of Table 1 are solid
wastes when reclaimed.
(4) Accumulated speculatively. Mate-
rials noted with a "*" in column 4 of
Table 1 are solid wastes when accumu-
lated speculatively.

following criteria to add wastes to that
list:
(i)(A) The materials are ordinarily
disposed of, burned, or incinerated; or
(B) The materials contain toxic con-
stituents listed in Appendix VIII of
Part 261 and these constituents are
not ordinarily found in raw materials
or products for which the materials
substitute (or are found in raw materi-
als or products in smaller concentra-
tions) and are not used or reused
during the recycling process; and
(ii) The material may pose a sub-
stantial hazard to human health and
the environment when recycled.
(e) Materials that are not solid waste
when recycled. (1) Materials are not
solid wastes when they can be shown
to be recycled by being:
(i) Used or reused as ingredients in
an industrial process to make a prod-
uct, provided the materials are not
being reclaimed; or
(ii) Used or reused as effective sub-
stitutes for commercial products; or
-------
Environmental Protection Agency
§261.3
(iii) Returned to the original process
from which they are generated, with-
out first being reclaimed. The material
must be returned as a substitute for
raw material feedstock, and the proc-
ess must use raw materials as principal
feedstocks.
(2) The following materials are solid
wastes, even if the recycling involves
use, reuse, or return to the original
process (described in paragraphs (e)(l)
(i) through (iii) of this section):
(i) Materials used in a manner con-
stituting disposal, or used to produce
products that are applied to the land;
or
(ii) Materials burned for energy re-
covery, used to produce a fuel, or con-
tained in fuels; or
(iii) Materials accumulated specula-
tively; or
(iv) Materials listed in paragraph
(d)(l) of this section.
(f) Documentation of claims that
materials are not solid wastes or are
conditionally exempt from regulation.
Respondents in actions to enforce reg-
ulations implementing Subtitle C of
RCRA who raise a claim that a certain
material is not a solid waste, or is con-
ditionally exempt from regulation,
must demonstrate that there is a
known market or disposition for the
material, and that they meet the
terms of the exclusion or exemption.
In doing so, they must provide appro-
priate documentation (such as con-
tracts showing that a second person
uses the material as an ingredient in a
production process) to demonstrate
that the material is not a waste, or is
exempt from regulation. In addition,
owners or operators of facilities claim-
ing that they actually are recycling
materials must show that they have
the necessary equipment to do so.

tion as a hazardous waste under
§ 261.4(b); and
(2) It meets any of the following cri-
teria:
(i) It exhibits any of the characteris-
tics of hazardous waste identified in
Subpart C.
(ii) It is listed in Subpart D and has
not been excluded from the lists in
Subpart D under §§ 260.20 and 260.22
of this chapter.
(iii) It is a mixture of a solid waste
and a hazardous waste that is listed in
Subpart D solely because it exhibits
one or more of the characteristics of
hazardous waste identified in Subpart
C, unless the resultant mixture no
longer exhibits any characteristic of
hazardous waste identified in Subpart
C.
(iv) It is a mixture of solid waste and
one or more hazardous wastes listed in
Subpart D and has not been excluded
from this paragraph under §§ 260.20
and 260.22 of this chapter; however,
the following mixtures of solid wastes
and hazardous wastes listed in Sub-
part D are not hazardous wastes
(except by application of paragraph
(a)(2) (i) or (ii) of this section) if the
generator can demonstrate that the
mixture consists of wastewater the dis-
charge of which is subject to regula-
tion under either section 402 or sec-
tion 307(b) of the Clean Water Act (in-
cluding wastewater at facilities which
have eliminated the discharge of
wastewater) and:
(A) One or more of the following
spent solvents listed in § 261.31—
carbon tetrachloride, tetrachloroethy-
lene, trichoroethylene—Provided,
That the maximum total weekly usage
of these solvents (other than the
amounts that can be demonstrated not

listed in § 261.33, arising from de mini-
mis losses of these materials from
manufacturing operations in which
these materials are used as raw mate-
rials or are produced in the manufac-
turing process. For purposes of this
subparagraph, "de minimis" losses in-
clude those from normal material han-
dling operations (e.g. spills from the
unloading or transfer of materials
from bins or other containers, leaks
from pipes, valves or other devices
used to transfer materials); minor
leaks of process equipment, storage
tanks or containers; leaks from well-

wastewater treatment or pre-treat-
ment system, or provided the wastes,
combined annualized average concen-
tration does not exceed one part per
million in the headworks of the facili-
ty's wastewater treatment or pre-treat-
ment facility. Toxic (T) wastes used in
laboratories that are demonstrated
not to be discharged to wastewater are
not to be included in this calculation.
(b) A solid waste which is not ex-
cluded from regulation under para-
graph (a)(l) of this section becomes a
hazardous waste when any of the fol-
lowing events occur:
(1) In the case of a waste listed in
Subpart D, when the waste first meets
the listing description set forth in
Subpart D.
(2) In the case of a mixture of solid
waste and one or more listed hazard-
ous wastes, when a hazardous waste
listed in Subpart D is first added to
the solid waste.
(3) In the case of any other waste
(including a waste mixture), when the
waste exhibits any of the characteris-
tics identified in Subpart C.
(c) Unless and until it meets the cri-
teria of paragraph (d):
(DA hazardous waste will remain a
hazardous waste.
(2)(i) Except as otherwise provided
in paragraph (c)(2)(ii) of this section,
any solid waste generated from the
treatment, storage, or disposal of a
hazardous waste, including any sludge,
spill residue, ash, emission control
dust, or leachate (but not including
precipitation run-off) is a hazardous
waste. (However, materials that are re-
claimed from solid wastes and that are
used-beneficially are not solid wastes
and hence are not hazardous wastes
under this provision unless the re-
claimed material is burned for energy
recovery or used in a manner consti-
tuting disposal.)
(ii) The following solid wastes are
not hazardous even though they are
generated from the treatment, stor-
age, or disposal of a hazardous waste.
unless they exhibit one or more of the
characteristics of hazardous waste: (A)
Waste pickle liquor sludge generated
by lime stabilization of spent pickle
liquor from the iron and steel industry
(SIC Codes 331 and 332).
(B) Waste from burning any of the
materials exempted from regulation
by § 261.6(a)(3) (v) through (ix).
(d) Any solid waste described in
paragraph (c) of this section is not a
hazardous waste if it meets the follow-
ing criteria:
(1) In the case of any solid waste, it
does not exhibit any of the character-
istics of hazardous waste identified in
Subpart C.
(2) In the case of a waste which is a
listed waste under Subpart D, contains
a waste listed under Subpart D or is
derived from a waste listed in Subpart
D, it also has been excluded from
paragraph (c) under {§260.20 and
260.22 of this chapter.

§ 261.5 Special requirements for hazard-
ous waste generated by conditionally
exempt small quantity generators.
(a) A generator is a conditionally
exempt small quantity generator in a
calendar month if he generates no
more than 100 kilograms of hazardous
waste in that month.
(b) Except for those wastes identi-
fied in paragraphs (e), (f), (g), and (j)
of this section, a conditionally exempt
small quantity generator's hazardous
wastes are not subject to regulation
under Parts 262 through 266, 268, and
Parts 270 and 124 of this chapter, and
the notification requirements of sec-
tion 3010 of RCRA, provided the gen-
erator complies with the requirements
of paragraphs (f), (g), and (j) of this
section.
(c) Hazardous waste that is not sub-
ject to regulation or that is subject
only to § 262.11. § 262.12, § 262.40(c),
and § 262.41 is not included in the
quantity determinations of this part
and Parts 262 through 266, 268, and
270 and is not subject to any of the re-
quirements of those parts. Hazardous
waste that is subject to the require-
ments of § 261.6 (b) and (c) and Sub-
parts C, D, and F of Part 266 is includ-
ed in the quantity determination of
this part and is subject to the require-
ments of Parts 262 through 266 and
270.
(d) In determining the quantity of
hazardous waste generated, a genera-
tor need not include:
(1) Hazardous waste when it is re-
moved from on-site storage; or
(2) Hazardous waste produced by on-
site treatment (including reclamation)
of his hazardous waste, so long as the
hazardous waste that is treated was
counted once; or

(B) Treats its waste prior to benefi-
cial use or reuse, or legitimate recy-
cling or reclamation.
(h) Hazardous waste subject to the
reduced requirements of this section
may be mixed with non-hazardous
waste and remain subject to these re-
duced requirements even though the
resultant mixture exceeds the quanti-
ty limitations identified in this section,
unless the mixture meets any of the
characteristics of hazardous waste
identified in Subpart C.
(i) If any person mixes a solid waste
with a hazardous waste that exceeds a

Subpart B—Criteria for Identifying
the Characteristics of Hazardous
Waste and for Listing Hazardous
Waste
§261.10 Criteria for identifying the char-
acteristics of hazardous waste.
(a) The Administrator shall identify
and define a characteristic of hazard-
ous waste in Subpart C only upon de-
termining that:
(1) A solid waste that exhibits the
characteristic may:
(i) Cause, or significantly contribute
to, an increase in mortality or an in-
crease in serious irreversible, or inca-
pacitating reversible, illness; or
(ii) Pose a substantial present or po-
tential hazard to human health or the
environment when it is improperly
treated, stored, transported, disposed
of or otherwise managed; and
(2) The characteristic can be:
(i) Measured by an available stand-
ardized test method which is reason-
ably within the capability of genera-
tors of solid waste or private sector
laboratories that are available to serve
generators of solid waste; or
(ii) Reasonably detected by genera-
tors of solid waste through their
knowledge of their waste.
§261.11 Criteria for listing hazardous
waste.
(a) The Administrator shall list a
solid waste as a hazardous waste only
upon determining that the solid waste
meets one of the following criteria:
(1) It exhibits any of the character-
istics of hazardous waste identified in
Subpart C.
(2) It has been found to be fatal to
humans in low doses or, in the absence
of data on human toxicity, it has been
shown in studies to have an oral LD 50
toxicity (rat) of less than 50 milli-
grams per kilogram, an inhalation LC
50 toxicity (rat) of less than 2 milli-
grams per liter, or a dermal LD 50 tox-
icity (rabbit) of less than 200 milli-
grams per kilogram or is otherwise ca-
pable of causing or significantly con-
tributing to an increase in serious irre-
versible, or incapacitating reversible,
illness. (Waste listed in accordance
with these criteria will be designated
Acute Hazardous Waste.)
-------
Environmental Protection Agency
§261.20
(3) It contains any of the toxic con-
stituents listed in Appendix VIII
unless, after considering any of the
following factors, the Administrator
concludes that the waste is not capa-
ble of posing a substantial present or
potential hazard to human health or
the environment when improperly
treated, stored, transported or dis-
posed of, or otherwise managed:
(i) The nature of the toxicity pre-
sented by the constituent.
(ii) The concentration of the constit-
uent in the waste.
(iii) The potential of the constituent
or any toxic degradation product of
the constituent to migrate from the
waste into the environment under the
types of improper management consid-
ered in paragraph (a)(3)(vii) of this
section.
(iv) The persistence of the constitu-
ent or any toxic degradation product
of the constituent.
(v) The potential for the constituent
or any toxic degradation product of
the constituent to degrade into non-
harmful constituents and the rate of
degradation.
(vi) The degree to which the constit-
uent or any degradation product of
the constituent bioaccumulates in eco-
systems.
(vii) The plausible types of improper
management to which the waste could
be subjected.
(viii) The quantities of the waste
generated at individual generation
sites or on a regional or national basis.
(ix) The nature and severity of the
human health and environmental
damage that has occurred as a result
of the improper management of
wastes containing the constituent.
(x) Action taken by other govern-
mental agencies or regulatory pro-
grams based on the health or environ-
mental hazard posed by the waste or
waste constituent.
(xi) Such other factors as may be ap-
propriate.
Substances will be listed on Appendix
VIII only if they have been shown in
scientific studies to have toxic, carci-
nogenic, mutagenic or terg ogenic ef-
fects on humans or other life forms.
(Wastes listed in accordance with
these criteria will be designated Toxic
wastes.)
(b) The Administrator may list class-
es or types of solid waste as hazardous
waste if he has reason to believe that
individual wastes, within the class or
type of waste, typically or frequently
are hazardous under the definition of
hazardous waste found in section
1004(5) of the Act.
(c) The Administrator will use the
criteria for listing specified in this sec-
tion to establish the exclusion limits
referred to in § 261.5(c).
Subpart C—Characteristics of
Hazardous Waste
§ 261.20 General.
(a) A solid waste, as defined
in
§ 261.2, which is not excluded from
regulation as a hazardous waste under
§ 261.4(b), is a hazardous waste if it ex-
hibits any of the characteristics identi-
fied in this subpart.
{Comment: § 262.11 of this chapter sets
forth the generator's responsibility to deter-
mine whether his waste exhibits one or
more of the characteristics identified in this
subpart]
(b) A hazardous waste which is iden-
tified by a characteristic in this sub-
part, but is not listed as a hazardous
waste in Subpart D, is assigned the
EPA Hazardous Waste Number set
forth in the respective characteristic
in this subpart. This number must be
used in complying with the notifica-
tion requirements of section 3010 of
the Act and certain recordkeeping and
reporting requirements under Parts
262 through 265, 268, and Part 270 of
this chapter.
(c) For purposes of this subpart, the
Administrator will consider a sample
obtained using any of the applicable
sampling methods specified in Appen-
dix I to be a representative sample
within the meaning of Part 260 of this
chapter.
[Comment: Since the Appendix I sampling
methods are not being formally adopted by
the Administrator, a person who desires to
employ an alternative sampling method is
not required to demonstrate the equivalency
of his method under the procedures set
forth in §§ 260.20 and 260.21.]

§ 261.21 Characteristic of ignitability.
(a) A solid waste exhibits the charac-
teristic of ignitability if a representa-
tive sample of the waste has any of
the following properties:
(1) It is a liquid, other than an aque-
ous solution containing less than 24
percent alcohol by volume and has
flash point less than 60°C (140°F), as
determined by a Pensky-Martens
Closed Cup Tester, using the test
method specified in ASTM Standard

extract from a representative sample
of the waste contains any of the con-
taminants listed in Table I at a con-
centration equal to or greater than the
respective value given in that Table.
Where the waste contains less than 0.5
percent filterable solids, the waste
itself, after filtering, is considered to
be the extract for the purposes of this
section.

§ 261.33 Discarde d commercial chemical
products, off-specification species, con-
tainer residues, and spill residues

The following materials or items are
hazardous wastes if and when they are
discarded or intended to be discarded
as described in § 261.2(a)(2)(i), when
they are mixed with waste oil or used
oil or other material and applied to
the land for dust suppression or road
treatment, when they are otherwise
applied to the land in lieu of their
original intended use or when they are
contained in products that are applied
to the land in lieu of their original in-
tended use, or when, in lieu of their
original intended use, they are pro-
duced for use as (or as a component

of) a fuel, distributed for use as a fuel,
or burned as a fuel.
(a) Any commercial chemical prod-
uct, or manufacturing chemical inter-
mediate having the generic name
listed in paragraph (e) or (f) of this
section.
(b) Any off-specification commercial
chemical product or manufacturing
chemical intermediate which, if it met
specifications, would have the generic
name listed in paragraph (e) or (f) of
this section.
(c) Any residue remaining in a con-
tainer or in an inner liner removed
from a container that has held any
commercial chemical product or man-
ufacturing chemical intermediate
having the generic name listed in
paragraph (e) of this section, unless
the container is empty as defined in
§ 261.7(b)(3) of the chapter.
{.Comment: Unless the residue is being bene-
ficially used or reused, or legitimately recy-
cled or reclaimed; or being accumulated,
stored, transported or treated prior to such
use, re-use, recycling or reclamation, EPA
considers the residue to be intended for dis-
card, and thus, a hazardous waste. An exam-
ple of a legitimate re-use of the residue
would be where the residue remains in the
container and the container is used to hold
the same commercial chemical product or
manufacturing chemical intermediate it pre-
viously held. An example of the discard of
the residue would be where the drum is sent
to a drum reconditioner who reconditions
the drum but discards the residue.]

water or other debris resulting from
the cleanup of a spill into or on any
land or water of any commercial
chemical product or manufacturing
chemical intermediate having the ge-
neric name listed in paragraph (e) or
(f) of this section, or any residue or
contaminated soil, water or other
debris resulting from the cleanup of a
spill, into or on any land or water, of
any off-specification chemical product
and manufacturing chemical interme-
diate which, if it met specifications,
would have the generic name listed in
paragraph (e) or (f) of this section.
[Comment: The phrase "commercial chemi-
cal product or manufacturing chemical in-
termediate having the generic name listed
in . . ." refers to a chemical substance
which is manufactured or formulated for
commercial or manufacturing use which
consists of the commercially pure grade of
the chemical, any technical grades of the
chemical that are produced or marketed,
and all formulations in which the chemical
is the sole active ingredient. It does not
refer to a material, such as a manufacturing
process waste, that contains any of the sub-
stances listed in paragraph (e) or (f). Where
a manufacturing process waste is deemed to
be a hazardous waste because it contains a
substance listed in paragraph (e) or (f), such
waste will be listed in either § 261.31 or
§ 261.32 or will be identified as a hazardous
waste by the characteristics set forth in
Subpart C of this part.]
(e) The commercial chemical prod-
ucts, manufacturing chemical interme-
diates or off-specification commercial
chemical products or manufacturing
chemical intermediates referred to in
paragraphs (a) through (d) of this sec-
tion, are identified as acute hazardous
wastes (H) and are subject to be the
small quantity exclusion defined in
§ 261.5(e).
[.Comment: For the convenience of the regu-
lated community the primary hazardous
properties of these materials have been indi-
cated by the letters T (Toxicity). and R (Re-
activity). Absence of a letter indicates that
the compound only is listed for acute toxici-
ty.]

The methods and equipment used for
sampling waste materials will vary with the
form and consistency of the waste materials
to be sampled. Samples collected using the
sampling protocols listed below, for sam-
pling waste with properties similar to the in-
dicated materials, will be considered by the
Agency to be representative of the waste.

Methods." "
This manual also contains additional in-
formation on application of these protocols.
A. Extraction Procedure (EP)
1. A representative sample of the waste to
be tested (minimum size 100 grams) shall be
obtained using the methods specified in Ap-
pendix I or any other method capable of
yielding a representative sample within the
meaning of Part 260. [For detailed guidance
on conducting the various aspects of the EP
see "Test Methods for the Evaluation of
Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods"
(incorporated by reference, see § 260.11).]
2. The sample shall be separated into its
component liquid and solid phases using the
method described in "Separation Proce-
dure" below. If the solid residue "• obtained
using this method totals less than 0.5% of
the original weight of the waste, the residue
can be discarded and the operator shall
treat the liquid phase as the extract and
proceed immediately to Step 8.
3. The solid material obtained from the
Separation Procedure shall be evaluated for
its particle size. If the solid material has a
surface area per gram of material equal to,
or greater than, 3.1 cm2 or passes through a
9.5 mm (0.375 inch) standard sieve, the oper-
ator shall proceed to Step 4. If the surface
area is smaller or the particle size larger
than specified above, the solid material
shall be prepared for extraction by crush-
ing, cutting or grinding the material so that
"•The percent solids is determined by
drying the filter pad at 80"C until it reaches
constant weight and then calculating the
percent solids using the following equation:

it passes through a 9.5 mm (0.375 inch) sieve
or, if the material is in a single piece, by
subjecting the material to the "Structural
Integrity Procedure" described below.
4. The solid material obtained in Step 3
shall be weighed and placed in an extractor
with 16 times its weight of deionized water.
Do not allow the material to dry prior to
weighing. For purposes of this test, an ac-
ceptable extractor is one which will impart
sufficient agitation to the mixture to not
only prevent stratification of the sample
and extraction fluid but also insure that all
sample surfaces are continuously brought
into contact with well mixed extraction
fluid.
5. After the solid material and deionized
water are placed in the extractor, the opera-
tor shall begin agitation and measure the
pH of the solution in the extractor. If the
pH is greater than 5.0, the pH of the solu-
tion shall be decreased to 5.0 ± 0.2 by
adding 0.5 N acetic acid. If the pH is equal
to or less than 5.0, no acetic acid should be
added. The pH of the solution shall be mon-
itored, as described below, during the course
of the extraction and if the pH rises above
5.2, 0.5N acetic acid shall be added to bring
the pH down to 5.0 ± 0.2. However, in no
event shall the aggregrate amount of acid
added to the solution exceed 4 ml of acid
per gram of solid. The mixture shall be agi-
tated for 24 hours and maintained at 20°-
40°C (68°-104°F) during this time. It is rec-
ommended that the operator monitor and
adjust the pH during the course of the ex-
traction with a device such as the Type 45-A
pH Controller manufactured by Chemtrix,
Inc., Hillsboro, Oregon 97123 or its equiva-
lent, in conjunction with a metering pump
and reservoir of 0.5N acetic acid. If such a
system is not available, the following
manual procedure shall be employed:
(a) A pH meter shall be calibrated in ac-
cordance with the manufacturer's specifica-
tions.
(b) The pH of the solution shall be
checked and, if necessary, 0.5N acetic acid
shall be manually added to the extractor
until the pH reaches 5.0 ± 0.2. The pH of
the solution shall be adjusted at 15, 30 and
60 minute intervals, moving to the next
longer interval if the pH does not have to be
adjusted more than 0.5N pH units,
(c) The adjustment procedure shall be
continued for at least 6 hours.
(d) If at the end of the 24-hour extraction
period, the pH of the solution is not below
5.2 and the maximum amount of acid (4 ml
per gram of solids) has not been added, the
pH shall be adjusted to 5.0 ± 0.2 and the ex-
traction continued for an additional four
hours, during which the pH shall be adjust-
ed at one hour intervals.
6. At the end of the 24 hour extraction
period, deionized water shall be added to
the extractor in an amount determined by
the following equation:
V = (20)(W)-16(W)-A
V=ml deionized water to be added
W=weight in grams of solid charged to ex-
tractor
A=ml of 0.5N acetic acid added during ex-
traction
7. The material in the extractor shall be
separated into its component liquid and
solid phases as described under "Separation
Procedure."
8. The liquids resulting from Steps 2 and 7
shall be combined. This combined liquid (or
the waste itself if it has less than Vz percent
solids, as noted in Step 2) is the extract and
shall be analyzed for the presence of any of
the contaminants specified in Table I of
§ 261.24 using the Analytical Procedures
designated below.
Separation Procedure
Equipment: A filter holder, designed for
filtration media having a nominal pore size
of 0.45 micrometers and capable of applying
a 5.3 kg/cm2 (75 psi) hydrostatic pressure to
the solution being filtered, shall be used.
For mixtures containing nonabsorptive
solids, where separation can be effected
without imposing a 5.3 kg/cm2 pressure dif-
ferential, vacuum filters employing a 0.45
micrometers filter media can be used. (For
further guidance on filtration equipment or
procedures see "Test Methods for Evaluat-
ing Solid Waste. Physical/Chemical Meth-
ods" incorporated by reference, see
§260.11). Procedure:2
(i) Following manufacturer's directions.
the filter unit shall be assembled with a
filter bed consisting of a 0.45 micrometer
filter membrane. For difficult or slow to
filter mixtures a prefilter bed consisting of
the following prefilters in increasing pore
size (0.65 micrometer membrane, fine glass
'This procedure is intended to result in
separation of the "free" liquid portion of
the waste from any solid matter having a
particle size >0.45 ^m. If the sample will
not filter, various other separation tech-
niques can be used to aid in the filtration.
As described above, pressure filtration is
employed to speed up the filtration process.
This does not alter the nature of the separa-
tion. If liquid does not separate during fil-
tration, the waste can be centrif uged. If sep-
aration occurs during centrifugation, the
liquid portion (centrifugate) is filtered
through the 0.45 jim filter prior to becoming
mixed with the liquid portion of the waste
obtained from the initial filtration. Any ma-
terial that will not pass through the filter
after centrifugation is considered a solid
and is extracted.

Environmental Protection Agency
Part 261, App. II
fiber prefilter, and coarse glass fiber pre-
filter) can be used.
(ii) The waste shall be poured into the fil-
tration unit.
(iii) The reservoir shall be slowly pressur-
ized until liquid begins to flow from the fil-
trate outlet at which point the pressure in
the filter shall be immediately lowered to
10-15 psig. Filtration shall be continued
until liquid flow ceases.
(iv) The pressure shall be increased step-
wise in 10 psi increments to 75 psig and fil-
tration continued until flow ceases or the
pressurizing gas begins to exit from the fil-
trate outlet.
(v) The filter unit shall be depressurized,
the solid material removed and weighed and
then transferred to the extraction appara-
tus, or, in the case of final filtration prior to
analysis, discarded. Do not allow the materi-
al retained on the filter pad to dry prior to
weighing.
(vi) The liquid phase shall be stored at 4°C
for subsequent use in Step 8.
B. Structural Integrity Procedure
Equipment: A Structural Integrity Tester
having a 3.18 cm (1.25 in.) diameter hammer
weighing 0.33 kg (0.73 Ibs.) and having a
free fall of 15.24 cm (6 in.) shall be used.
This device is available from Associated
Design and Manufacturing Company, Alex-
andria, VA 22314, as Part No. 125, or it may
be fabricated to meet the specifications
shown in Figure 1.

Procedure
1. The sample holder shall be filled with
the material to be tested. If the sample of
waste is a large monolithic block, a portion
shall be cut from the block having the di-
mensions of a 3.3 cm (1.3 in.) diameter x 7.1
cm (2.8 in.) cylinder. For a fixated waste,
samples may be cast in the form of a 3.3 cm
(1.3 in.) diameter x 7.1 cm (2.8 in.) cylinder
for purposes of conducting this test. In such
cases, the waste may be allowed to cure for
30 days prior to further testing.
2. The sample holder shall be placed into
the Structural Integrity Tester, then the
hammer shall be raised to its maximum
height and dropped. This shall be repeated
fifteen times.
3. The material shall be removed from the
sample holder, weighed, and transferred to
the extraction apparatus for extraction.

Waste No. F019) generated from the chemical conversion coating of aluminum after
November 14, 1986. To ensure that hazardous constituents are not present in the waste
at levels of regulatory concern, the facility must implement a contingency testing program
for the petitioned wastes. This testing program must meet the following conditions for the
exclusions to be valid:
(1) Each batch of treatment residue must be representatively sampled and tested using the
EP Toxicity test for arsenic, banum, cadmium, chromium, lead, selenium, silver, mercury,
and nickel. If the extract concentrations for chromium, lead, arsenic, and silver exceed
0.315 ppm; banum levels exceed 6.3 ppm; cadmium and selenium exceed 0.063 ppm;
mercury exceeds 0.0126 ppm; or nickel levels exceed 2.205 ppm, the waste must be re-
treated or managed and disposed as a hazardous waste under 40 CFR Parts 262 to 265
and the permitting standards of 40 CFR Part 270.
(2) Each batch of treatment residue must be tested for reactive and teachable cyanide. If the
reactive cyanide levels exceed 250 ppm or leachable cyanide levels (using the EP Toxicity
test without acetic acid adjustment) exceed 1.26 ppm, the waste must be re-treated or
managed and disposed as a hazardous waste under 40 CFR Parts 262 to 265 and the
permitting standards of 40 CFR Part 270.
(3) F.ach batch of waste must be tested for the total content of specific organic toxicants. If
the total content of anthracene exceeds 76.8 ppm, 1,2-diphenyl hydrazine exceeds 0.001
ppm, methylene chlonde exceeds 8.18 ppm, methyl ethyl ketone exceeds 326 ppm, n-
nitrosodiphenylamine exceeds 11.9 ppm, phenol exceeds 1,566 ppm, tetrachloroethylene
exceeds 0.188 ppm, or tnchloroethylene exceeds 0.592 ppm. the waste must be managed
and disposed as a hazardous waste under 40 CFR Parts 262 and 265 and the permitting
standards of 40 CFR Part 270.
(4) A grab sample must be collected from each batch to form one monthly composite
sample which must be tested using GC/MS analysis for the compounds listed in #3 above
as well as the remaining organics on the priority pollutant list (See 47 FR 52309
November 19, 1982, for a list of the priority pollutants.)
(5) The data from conditions 1-4 must be kept on file at the facility for inspection purposes
and must be compiled, summarized, and submitted to the Administrator by certified mail
semi-annually. The Agency will review this information and if needed will propose to
modify or withdraw the exclusion.
The organics testing descnbed in conditions 3 and 4 above are not required until six months
from the date of promulgation. The Agency's decision to conditionally exclude the
treatment residue generated from the wastewater treatment systems at these facilities
applies only to the wastewater and solids treatment systems as they presently exist as
described in the delisting petition. The exclusion does not apply to the proposed process
additions described in the petition as recovery including crystalizaton, electrolytic metals

(6) Syntex must generate, pnor to disposal of residues, verification data from each eight hour
run for each treatment residue (i.e., kiln and cyclone ash, separator sludge, and filtered
wastewater) to demonstrate that the residues do not contain tetra-, penta-, or hexachloro-
dibenzo-p-dioxins or furans at levels of regulatory concern. Samples must be collected as
specified in Conditions (2) and (3). The TCDD equivalent levels for wastewaters must be
less than 2 ppq and less than 5 ppt for the solid treatment residues. Any residues with
detected dioxms or furans in excess of these levels must be retreated or must be
disposed as acutely hazardous. Method 8290, a high resolution gas chromatography and
high resolution mass spectroscopy (HRGC/HRMS) analytical method, must be used. For
tetra- and pentachloronated dioxin and furan homologs, the maximum practical quantitation
limit must not exceed 15 ppt for solids and 120 ppq for wastewaters. For hexachlonnated
homologs, the maximum practical quantitation limit must not exceed 37 ppt for solids and
300 ppq for wastewaters.
(7)(A) The test data from Conditions (1), (2). (3), (4). (5) and (6) must be kept on file by
Syntex for inspection purposes and must be compiled, summarized, and submitted to the

stabilization as long as the mixing ratios of the reagent with the waste are monitored
continuously and do not vary outside of the limits presented in the demonstration samples;
one grab sample is taken each hour from each treatment unit, composited, and EP toxicity
tests performed on each sample. If the levels of lead or total chromium exceed 0.5 ppm in
the EP extract, then the waste that was processed during the compositing period is
considered hazardous; the treatment residue shall be pumped into bermed cells to ensure
that the waste is identifiable in the event that removal is necessary.
Uncured and cured chemically stabilized electnc arc furnace dust/sludge (CSEAFD) treat-

This exclusion is conditioned upon the data obtained from Bethlehem's full-scale CSEAFD
treatment facility because Bethlehem's original data were obtained from a laboratory-scale
CSEAFD treatment process. To ensure that hazardous constituents are not present in the
waste at levels of regulatory concern once the full-scale treatment facility is in operation,
Bethlehem must implement a testing program for the petitioned waste. This testing
program must meet the following conditions for the exclusion to be valid:
(1) Testing:
(A) Initial Testing: During the first four weeks of operation of the full-scale treatment system,
Bethlehem must collect representative grab samples of each treated batch of the CSEAFD
and composite the grab samples daily. The daily composites, pnor to disposal, must be
analyzed for the EP leachate concentrations of all the EP toxic metals, nickel and cyanide
(using distilled water in the cyanide extractions), and the total constituent concentrations
of reactive sulfide and reactive cyanide. Analyses must be performed according to SW-
846 methodologies. Bethlehem must report the analytical test data obtained during this
initial period no later than 90 days after the treatment of the first full-scale batch.
(B) Subsequent Testing: Bethlehem must collect representative grab samples from every
treated batch of CSEAFD generated daily and composite all of the grab samples to
produce a weekly composite sample. Bethlehem then must analyze each weekly compos-
ite sample for the EP leachate concentrations of all the EP toxic metals and nickel.
Analyses must be performed according to SW-846 methodologies. The analytical data,
including all quality control information, must be compiled and maintained on site for a
minimum of three years. These data must be furnised upon request and made available
for inspection by any employee or representative of EPA or the State of Pennsylvania.
(2) Delisting levels If the EP extract concentrations resulting from the testing in condition
(1)(A) or (1)(B) for chromium, lead, arsenic, or silver exceed 0.315 mg/l; for banum
exceeds 6.3 mg/l; for cadmium or selenium exceed 0.063 mg/l; for mercury exceeds
0.0126 mg/l or for nickel exceeds 0.0126 mg/l; for cyanide exceeds 1.26 mg/l, or total
reactive cyanide or total reactive sulfide levels exceed 250 mg/kg and 500 mg/kg,

constituents are not present in the waste at levels of regulatory concern, the facility must
implement a contingency testing program for the petitioned wastes. This testing program
must meet the following conditions for the exclusions to be valid;
(1) Each batch of treatment residue must be representatively sampled and tested using the
EP Toxicity test for arsenic, banum, cadmium, chromium, lead, selenium, silver, mercury,
and nickel. If the extract concentrations for chromium, lead, arsenic, and silver exceed
0.315 ppm; barium levels exceed 6.3 ppm; cadmium and selenium exceed 0.063 ppm;

treated or managed and disposed as a hazardous waste under 40 CFR Parts 262 to 265
and the permitting standards of 40 CFR Part 270.
(2) Each batch of treatment residue must be tested for reactive and leachable cyanide If the
reactive cyanide levels exceed 250 ppm; or leachable cyanide levels (using the EP
Toxicity test without acetic acid adjustment) exceed 1.26 ppm, the waste must be re-
treated or managed and disposed as hazardous waste under 40 CFR Parts 262 to 265
and the permitting standards of 40 CFR 270.
(3) Each batch of waste must be tested for the total content of specific organic toxicants. If
the total content of anthracene exceeds 76.8 ppm, 1,2-diphenyl hydrazine exceeds 0.001
ppm, methylene chlonde exceeds 8.18 ppm, methyl ethyl ketone exceeds 326 ppm, n-
nitrosodiphenylamine exceeds 11.9 ppm, phenol exceeds 1,566 ppm, tetrachloroethylene

Fully-cured chemically stabilized electric arc furnace dust/sludge (CSEAFD) treatment
residue (EPA Hazardous Waste No. K061) generated from the pnmary production of steel
after March 22, 1989. This exclusion is conditioned upon the data obtained from
Roanoke's full-scale CSEAFD treatment facility because Roanoke's original data were
obtained from a laboratory-scale CSEAFD treatment process. To ensure that hazardous
constituents are not present in the waste at levels of regulatory concern once the full-
scale treatment facility is in operation, Roanoke must implement a testing program for the
petitioned waste.
This testing program must meet the following conditions for the exclusion to be valid:
(1) Testing:
(A) Initial testing: During the first four weeks of operation of the full-scale treatment system,
Roanoke must collect representative grab samples of each treated batch of the CSEAFD
and composite the grab samples daily. The daily composites, prior to disposal, must be
analyzed for the EP leachate concentrations of all the EP toxic metals, nickel and cyanide
(using distilled water in the cyanide extractions), and the total constituent concentrations
of reactive sulfide and reactive cyanide. Analyses must be performed according to SW-
846 methodologies. Roanoke must report the analytical test data obtained during this
initial penod no later than 90 days after the treatment of the first full-scale batch.
(B) Subsequent testing: Roanoke must collect representative grab samples from every
treated batch of CSEAFD generated daily and composite all of the grab samples to
produce a weekly composite sample. Roanoke then must analyze each weekly composite
sample for all of the EP toxic metals and nickel. Analyses must be performed according to
SW-846 methodologies. The analytical data, including all quality control information, must
be compiled and maintained on site for a minimum of three years. These data must be
furnished upon request and made available for inspection by any employee or representa-
tive of EPA or the State of Virginia
(2) Delisting levels: If the EP extract concentrations tor chromium, lead, arsenic, or silver
exceed 0.315 mg/l; for banum exceeds 6.3 mg/l; tor cadmium or selenium exceed 0.063
mg/l; for mercury exceeds 0.0126-mg/l; tor nickel exceeds 3.15 mg/l; or for cyanide
exceeds 1.26 mg/l, or total reactive cyanide or total reactive sulfide levels exceed 250
mg/kg and 500 mg/kg, respectively, the waste must either be re-treated or managed and
disposed in accordance with Subtitle C of RCRA.
(3) Data submittals: Within one week of system start-up, Roanoke must notify the Section
Chief, Variances Section (see address below) when their full-scale stabilization system in
on-line and waste treatment has begun. All data obtained through the initial testing
condition (1 )(A), must be submitted to the Section Chief, Variances Section, PSPD/OSW,
(OS-343), U.S. EPA, 401 M Street, SW., Washington, DC 20460 within the time penod
specified in condition (.1Y.A). Failure to submit the required data or keep the required
records will be considered by the Agency, at its discretion, sufficient basis to revoke
Roanoke's exclusion. All data must be accompanied by the following certification state-
ment: "Under civil and cnminal penalty of law for the making or submission of false or
fraudulent statements or representations (pursuant to the applicable provisions of the
Federal Code which include, but may not be limited to, 18 USC 6928), I certify that the

1.1 This method measures the concentra-
tion of chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and
chlorinated dibenzofurans in chemical
wastes including still bottoms, filter aids,
sludges, spent carbon, and reactor residues,
and in soils.
1.2 The sensitivity of this method is de-
pendent upon the level of interferences.
1.3 This method is recommended for use
only by analysts experienced with residue
analysis and skilled in mass spectral analyti-
cal techniques.
1.4 Because of the extreme toxicity of
these compounds, the analyst must take
necessary precautions to prevent exposure
to himself, or to others, of materials known
or believed to contain CDDs or CDFs.
2. Summary of the Method
2.1 This method is an analytical extrac-
tion cleanup procedure, and capillary
column gas chromatograph-low resolution
mass spectrometry method, using capillary
column GC/MS conditions and internal
standard techniques, which allow for the
measurement of PCDDs and PCDFs in the
extract.
2.2 If interferences are encountered, the
method provides selected general purpose
cleanup procedures to aid the analyst in
their elimination.
3. Interferences
3.1 Solvents, reagents, glassware, and
other sample processing hardware may yield
discrete artifacts and/or elevated baselines
causing misinterpretation of gas chromato-
grams. All of these materials must be dem-
onstrated to be free from interferences

ed dibenzofurans in river water. T.O. Tier-

4 In general, the techniques that should be
used to handle these materials are those
which are followed for radioactive or infec-
tious laboratory materials. Assistance in
evaluating laboratory practices may be ob-
tained from industrial hygienists and per-
sons specializing in safe laboratory prac-
tices. Typical infectious waste incinerators
are probably not satisfactory devices for dis-
posal of materials highly contaminated with
CDDs or CDFs. Safety instructions are out-
lined in EPA Test Method 613(4.0)

tential contamination in the laboratory fol-

under the conditions of the analysis by run-
ning method blanks. Specific selection of
reagents and purification of solvents by dis-
tillation in all-glass systems may be re-
quired.
3.2 Interferences co-extracted from the
samples will vary considerably from source
to source, depending upon the diversity of
the industry being sampled. PCDD is often
associated with other interfering chlorinat-
ed compounds such as PCB's which may be
at concentrations several orders of magni-
tude higher than that of PCDD. While gen-
eral cleanup techniques are provided as part
of this method, unique samples may require
additional cleanup approaches to achieve
the sensitivity stated in Table 1.

GC injection of 5 microliters. Detection levels apply to both
electron capture and GC/MS detection. For further details
see 44 FR 69526 (December 3, 1979).
3.3 The other isomers of tetrachlorodi-
benzo-p-dioxin may interfere with the meas-
urement of 2,3,7,8-TCDD. Capillary column
gas chromatography is required to resolve
those isomers that yield virtually identical
mass fragmentation patterns.
4. Apparatus and Materials
4.1. Sampling equipment for discrete or
composite sampling.
4.1.1 Grab sample bottle—amber glass, 1-
liter or 1-quart volume. French or Boston
Round design is recommended. The contain-
er must be washed and solvent rinsed before
use to minimize interferences.
4.1.2. Bottle caps—threaded to screw on
to the sample bottles. Caps must be lined
with Teflon. Solvent washed foil, used with
the shiny side towards the sample, may be
substituted for the Teflon if sample is not
corrosive.
4.1.3. Compositing equipment—automatic
or manual composing system. No tygon or
rubber tubing may be used, and the system
must incorporate glass sample containers
for the collection of a minimum of 250 ml.
Sample containers must be kept refrigerat-
ed after sampling.
4.2 Water bath—heated, with concentric
ring cover, capable of temperature control
(±2 °C). The bath should be used in a hood.
4.3 Gas chromatograph/mass spectrome-
ter data system.
4.3.1 Gas chromatograph: An analytical
system with a temperature-programmable
-------

gas chromatograph and all required accesso-
ries including syringes, analytical columns,
and gases.
4.3.2 Column: SP-2250 coated on a 30 m
long x 0.25 mm I.D. glass column (Supelco
No. 2-3714 or equivalent). Glass capillary
column conditions: Helium carrier gas at 30
cm/sec linear velocity run splitless. Column
temperature is 210 °C.
4.3.3 Mass spectrometer: Capable of scan-
ning from 35 to 450 amu every 1 sec or less,
utilizing 70 volts (nominal) electron energy
in the electron impact ionization mode and
producing a.mass spectrum which meets all
the criteria in Table 2 when 50 ng of deca-
fluorotriphenyl-phosphine (DFTPP) is in-
jected through the GC inlet. The system
must also be capable of selected ion moni-
toring (SIM) for at least 4 ions simulta-
neously, with a cycle time of 1 sec or less.
Minimum integration time for SIM is 100
ms. Selected ion monitoring is verified by in-
jecting .015 ng of TCDD Cl37 to give a mini-
mum signal to noise ratio of 5 to 1 at mass

4.3.4 GC/MS interface: Any GC-to-MS
interface that gives acceptable calibration
points at 50 ng per injection for each com-
pound of interest and achieves acceptable
tuning performance criteria (see Sections
6.1 through 6.3) may be used. GC-to-MS
interfaces constructed of all glass or glass-
lined materials are recommended. Glass can
be deactivated by silanizing with dichlorodi-
methylsilane. The interface must be capable
of transporting at least 10 ng of the compo-
nents of interest from the GC to the MS.
4.3.5 Data system: A computer system
must be interfaced to the mass spectrome-
ter. The system must allow the continuous
acquisition and storage on machine-readable
media of all mass spectra obtained through-
out the duration of the chromatographic
program. The computer must have software
that can search any GC/MS data file for
ions of a specific mass and that can plot
such ion abundances versus time or scan
number. This type of plot is defined as an
Extracted Ion Current Profile (EICP). Soft-
ware must also be able to integrate the
abundance, in any EICP, between specified
time or scan number limits.
4.4 Pipettes-Disposable, Pasteur, 150 mm
long x 5 mm ID (Fisher Scientific Co., No.
13-678-6A or equivalent).
4.5 Flint glass bottle (Teflon-lined screw
cap).
4.6 Reacti-vial (silanized) (Pierce Chemi-
cal Co.).
5. Reagents
5.1 Potassium hydroxide-(ACS), 2% in
distilled water.
5.2 Sulfuric acid-(ACS), concentrated.
5.3 Methylene chloride, hexane, benzene,
petroleum ether, methanol, tetradecane-pes-
ticide quality or equivalent.
5.4 Prepare stock standard solutions of
TCDD and "Cl-TCDD (molecular weight
328) in a glove box. The stock solutions are
stored in a glovebox, and checked frequent-
ly for signs of degradation or evaporation,
especially just prior to the preparation of
working standards.
5.5 Alumina-basic, Woelm; 80/200 mesh.
Before use activate overnight at 600*C, cool
to room temperature in a dessicator.
5.6 Prepurified nitrogen gas
6.0 Calibration
6.1 Before using any cleanup procedure,
the analyst must process a series of calibra-
tion standards through the procedure to
validate elution patterns and the absence of
interferences from reagents.
6.2 Prepare GC/MS calibration stand-
ards for the internal standard technique
that will allow for measurement of relative
response factors of at least three CDD/
"CDD ratios. Thus, for TCDDs, at least
three TCDD/"C1-TCDD and TCDF/"C1-
TCDF must be determined.8 The "Cl-
TCDD/F concentration in the standard
should be fixed and selected to yield a re-
producible response at the most sensitive
setting of the mass spectrometer. Response
factors for PCDD and HxCDD may be de-
termined by measuring the response of the
tetrachloro-labelled compounds relative to
8 "Cl-labelled 2,3,7,8-TCDD and 2,3,7.8-
TCDF are available from K.O.R. Isotopes.
and Cambridge Isotopes, Inc., Cambridge,
MA. Proper standardization requires the use
of a specific labelled isomer for each conge-
ner to be determined. However, the only la-
belled isomers readily available are "Cl-
2.3,7.8-TCDD and "Cl-2,3,7,8-TCDF. This
method therefore uses these isomers as sur-
rogates for the CDDs and CDFs. When
other labelled CDDs and CDFs are avail-
able, their use will be required.

that of the unlabelled 1,2,3,4- or 2,3,7,8-
TCDD, 1,2,3,4,7-PCDD or 1,2,3,4,7,8-
HxCDD, which are commercially available.6
6.3 Assemble the necessary GC/MS ap-
paratus and establish operating parameters
equivalent to those indicated in Section 11.1
of this method. Calibrate the GC/MS
system according to Eichelberger, et al.
(1975) by the use of decafluorotriphenyl
phosphine (DFTPP). By injecting calibra-
tion standards, establish the response fac-
tors for CDDs vs. "Cl-TCDD, and for CDPs
us. "Cl-TCDF. The detection limit provided
in Table 1 should be verified by injecting
.015 ng of "Cl-TCDD which should give a
minimum signal to noise ratio of 5 to 1 at
mass 328.
7. Quality Control
7.1 Before processing any samples, the
analyst should demonstrate through the
analysis of a distilled water method blank,
that all glassware and reagents are interfer-
ence-free. Each time a set of samples is ex-
tracted, or there is a change in reagents, a
method blank should be processed as a safe-
guard against laboratory contamination.
7.2 Standard quality assurance practices
must be used with this method. Field repli-
cates must be collected to measure the pre-
cision of the sampling technique. Laborato-
ry replicates must be analyzed to establish
the precision of the analysis. Fortified sam-
ples must be analyzed to establish the accu-
racy of the analysis.
8. Sample Collection, Preservation, and
Handling
8.1 Grab and composite samples must be
collected in glass containers. Conventional
sampling practices should be followed,
except that the bottle must not be
prewashed with sample before collection.
Composite samples should be collected in
glass containers in accordance with the re-
quirements of the RCRA program. Sam-
pling equipment must be free of tygon and
other potential sources of contamination.
8.2 The samples must be iced or refriger-
ated from the time of collection until ex-
traction. Chemical preservatives should not
be used in the field unless more than 24
hours will elapse before delivery to the labo-
ratory. If an aqueous sample is taken and
the sample will not be extracted within 48
hours of collection, the sample should be
adjusted to a pH range of 6.0-8.0 with
sodium hydroxide or sulf uric acid.
• This procedure is adopted because stand-
ards are not available for most of the CDDs
and CDFs, and assumes that all the con-
geners will show the same response as the
unlabelled congener used as a standard. Al-
though this assumption may not be true in
all cases, the error will be small.
8.3 All samples must be extracted within
7 days and completely analyzed within 30
days of collection.
9. Extraction and Cleanup Procedures
9.1 Use an aliquot of 1-10 g sample of the
chemical waste or soil to be analyzed. Soils
should be dried using a stream of prepuri-
fied nitrogen and pulverized in a ball-mill or
similar device. Perform this operation in a
clear area with proper hood space. Transfer
the sample to a tared 125 ml flint glass
bottle (Teflon-lined screw cap) and deter-
mine the weight of the sample. Add an ap-
propriate quantity of "Cl-labelled 2,3,7,8-
TCDD (adjust the quantity according to the
required minimum detectable concentra-
tion), which is employed as an internal
standard.
9.2 Extraction
9.2.1 Extract chemical waste samples by
adding 10 ml methanol, 40 ml petroleum
ether, 50 ml doubly distilled water, and then
shaking the mixture for 2 minutes. Tars
should be completely dissolved in any of the
recommended neat solvents. Activated
carbon samples must be extracted with ben-
zene using method 3540 in SW-846 (Test
Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste—Physi-
cal/Chemical Methods, available from
G.P.O. Stock #055-022-81001-2). Quantita-
tively transfer the organic extract or dis-
solved sample to a clean 250 ml flint glass
bottle (Teflon lined screw cap), add 50 ml
doubly distilled water and shake for 2 min-
utes. Discard the aqueous layer and proceed
with Step 9.3.
9.2.2 Extract soil samples by adding 40
ml of petroleum ether to the sample, and
then shaking for 20 minutes. Quantitatively
transfer the organic extract to a clean 250
ml flint glass bottle (Teflon-lined screw
cap), add 50 ml doubly distilled water and
shake for 2 minutes. Discard the aqueous
layer and proceed with Step 9.3.
9.3 Wash the organic layer with 50 ml of
20% aqueous potassium hydroxide by shak-
ing for 10 minutes and then remove and dis-
card the aqueous layer.
9.4 Wash the organic layer with 50 ml of
doubly distilled water by shaking for 2 min-
utes, and discard the aqueous layer.
9.5 Cautiously add 50 ml concentrated
sulfuric acid and shake for 10 minutes.
Allow the mixture to stand until layers sep-
arate (approximately 10 minutes), and
remove and discard the acid layer. Repeat
acid washing until no color is visible in the
acid layer.
9.6 Add 50 ml of doubly distilled water to
the organic extract and shake for 2 minutes.
Remove and discard the aqueous layer and
dry the organic layer by adding lOg of anhy-
drous sodium sulf ate.
9.7 Concentrate the extract to incipient
dryness by heating in a 55* C water bath
and simultaneously flowing a stream of pre-
-------
Port 261, App. X
40 CFR Ch. I (7-1-89 Edition)
purified nitrogen over the extract. Quanti-
tatively transfer the residue to an alumina
microcolumn fabricated as follows:
9.7.1 Cut off the top section of a 10 ml
disposable Pyrex pipette at the 4.0 ml mark
and insert a plug of silanized glass wool into
the tip of the lower portion of the pipette.
9.7.2 Add 2.8g of Woelm basic alumina
(previously activated at 600' C overnight
and then cooled to room temperature in a
desiccator just prior to use).
9.7.3 Transfer sample extract with a
small volume of methylene chloride.
9.8 Elute the microcolumn with 10 ml of
3% methylene chloride-in-hexane followed
by 15 ml of 20% methylene chloride-in-
hexane and discard these effluents. Elute
the column with 15 ml of 50% methylene
chloride-in-hexane and concentrate this ef-
fluent (55° C water bath, stream of prepuri-
fied nitrogen) to about 0.3-0.5 ml.
9.9 Quantitatively transfer the residue
(using methylene chloride to rinse the con-
tainer) to a silanized Reacti-Vial (Pierce
Chemical Co.). Evaporate, using a stream of
prepurified nitrogen, almost to dryness,
rinse the walls of the vessel with approxi-
mately 0.5 ml methylene chloride, evaporate
just to dryness, and tightly cap the vial.
Store the vial at 5* C until analysis, at
which time the sample is reconstituted by
the addition of tridecane.
9.10 Approximately 1 hour before GC-
MS (HRGC-LRMS) analysis, dilute the resi-
due in the micro-reaction vessel with an ap-
propriate quantity of tridecane. Gently
swirl the tridecane on the lower portion of
the vessel to ensure dissolution of the CDDs
and CDPs. Analyze a sample by GC/EC to
provide insight into the complexity of the
problem, and to determine the manner in
which the mass spectrometer should be
used. Inject an appropriate aliquot of the
sample into the GC-MS instrument, using a
syringe.
9.11 If, upon preliminary GC-MS analy-
sis, the sample appears to contain interfer-
ing substances which obscure the analyses
for CDDs and CDFs, high performance
liquid chromatographic (HPLC) cleanup of
the extract is accomplished, prior to further
GC-MS analysis.
10. HPLC Cleanup Procedure''
10.1 Place approximately 2 ml of hexane
in a 50 ml flint glass sample bottle fitted
with a Teflon-lined cap.
10.2 At the appropriate retention time,
position sample bottle to collect the re-
quired fraction.
10.3 Add 2 ml of 5% (w/v) sodium car-
bonate to the sample fraction collected and
shake for one minute.
10.4 Quantitatively remove the hexane
layer (top layer) and transfer to a micro-re-
action vessel.
10.5 Concentrate the fraction to dryness
and retain for further analysis.
11. GC/MS Analysis
11.1 The following column conditions are
recommended: Glass capillary column con-
ditions: SP-2250 coated on a 30 m long x
0.25 mm I.D. glass column (Supelco No. 2-
3714, or equivalent) with helium carrier gas
at 30 cm/sec linear velocity, run splitless.
Column temperature is 210°C. Under these
conditions the retention time for TCDDs is
about_ 9.5 minutes. Calibrate the system
daily with, a minimum, three injections of
standard mixtures.
11.2 Calculate response factors for stand-
ards relative to "Cl-TCDD/F (see Section
12).
11.3 Analyze samples with selected ion
monitoring of at least two ions from Table
3. Proof of the presence of CDD or CDF
exists if the following conditions are met:
11.3.1 The retention time of the peak in
the sample must match that in the stand-
ard, within the performance specifications
of the analytical system.
11.3.2 The ratio of ions must agree
within 10% with that of the standard.
11.3.3 The retention time of the peak
maximum for the ions of interest must ex-
actly match that of the peak.

2 Cl<—labelled standard peaks.
3 Ions which can be monitored in TCDD analyses for confirmation purposes
11.4 Quantitate the CDD and CDF peaks
from the response relative to the "Cl-
TCDD/F internal standards. Recovery of
the internal standard should be greater
than 50 percent.
11.5 If a response is obtained for the ap-
propriate set of ions, but is outside the ex-
pected ratio, a co-eluting impurity may be
suspected. In this case, another set of ions
characteristic of the CDD/CDF molecules
should be analyzed. For TCDD a good
choice of ions is m/e 257 and m/e 259. For
TCDF a good choice of ions is m/e 241 and
243. These ions are useful in characterizing
the molecular structure to TCDD or TCDF.
For analysis of TCDD good analytical tech-
nique would require using all four ions, m/e
257, 320, 322, and 328, to verify detection
and signal to noise ratio of 5 to 1. Suspected
impurities such as DDE, DDD, or PCB resi-
dues can be confirmed by checking for their
major fragments. These materials can be re-
moved by the cleanup columns. Failure to
meet criteria should be explained in the
report, or the sample reanalyzed.
11.6 If broad background interference re-
stricts the sensitivity of the GC/MS analy-
sis, the analyst should employ cleanup pro-
cedures and reanalyze by GC/MS. See sec-
tion 10.0.
11.7 In those circumstances where these
procedures do not yield a definitive conclu-
sion, the use of high resolution mass spec-
trometry is suggested.
12. Calculations
12.1 Determine the concentration of indi-
vidual compounds according to the formula:

where:
'The proper amount of standard to be
used is determined from the calibration
curve (See Section 6.0).
'If standards for PCDDs/Fs and
HxCDDs/Fs are not available, response fac-
tors for ions derived from these congeners
are calculated relative to J1C1-TCDD/F. The
analyst may use response factors for 1,2,3,4-
or 2.3.7.8-TCDD, 1,2,3,4,7-PeCDD, or
1,2,3,4.7,8-HxCDD for quantitation of
TCDDs/Fs, PeCDDs/Fs and HxCDDs/Fs,
respectively. Implicit in this requirement is
the assumption that the same response is
obtained from PCDDs/Fs ccontaining the
same numbers of chlorine atoms.

SUMMARY: On March 29,1990 (55 FR
11798), the Environmentl Protection
Agency (EPA) promulgated a rule to
revise the existing toxicity
characteristics, which are used to
identify those wastes which are
hazardous and thus subject to regulation
under subtitle C of the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA)
due to their potential to leach significant
concentrations of specific toxic
constituents. Since promulgation, the
Agency has found the need to make
corrections to the rule in order to ensure
consistency of the toxicity characteristic
leaching procedure (TCLP), Method
1311, with other methods contained in
Test Methods for Evaluating Solid
Waste (Physical/Chemical Methods),
SW-846 and to clarify the section on
quality assurance. This notice also
corrects several errors in the March 29,
1990 notice.
DATES: Effective date: September 25,
1990. The effective date and compliance
dates are not changed by this document.

I. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
On March 29,1990 (55 FR 11798), EPA
promulgated a rule to revise the existing
toxicity characteristics, which are used
to identify those wastes which are
hazardous and thus subject to regulation
under subtitle C of RCRA. The rule
broadened and refined the scope of the
hazardous waste regulatory program
and fulfilled specific statutory mandates
under the Hazardous and Solid Waste
Amendments of 1984.
Today's notice makes corrections to
appendix II of the regulatory language of
the March 29,1990 final rule, Method
1311, the TCLP. The method has been
reorganized to correspond to the current
version of Test Methods for Evaluating
Solid Waste (Chemical/Physical
Methods), SW-846. In addition, the
quality assurance section has been
renumbered and has been clarified to
eliminate confusion. Today's notice also
corrects several typographical errors
and other omissions that appeared in
the final rule revising the toxicity
characteristics.
The preamble to the March 29,1990
final rule stated that any person that
would like to use the TCLP before the
effective date of the rule (September 25,
1990) may do so in order to determine
whether the eight heavy metals and six
pesticides that are currently regulated
under the Extraction Procedure (EP)
Toxicity Characteristic leach at levels of
regulatory concern. This language was
included because the TCLP is required
for both waste determination (on
September 25,1990, the TC effective
date) and the land disposal restrictions
program. The Agency today is clarifying
that, while it is appropriate to use just
one leach test to fulfill both
requirements, persons that would like to
continue using the EP leach test until the
effective date of the TC rule may do so.
It should be noted, however, that the EP
test may still be required as a matter of
state Law, and this regulation does not
affect such state law requirements.
B. Method 1311 and Quality Assurance
Today's notice makes technical
corrections to mistakes made in Method
1311, and to errors made during
typesetting, and provides clarifications
to specific procedures of the method.
The method also is being reorganized by
placing the leaching procedure in one
section and the quality assurance in a
separate section to conform with the
format used in SW-846.
A correction is being made in the
calculation for the weight of waste to
charge the Zero-Headspace Extractor
(ZHE). In the final rule published March
29,1990, the method incorrectly stated
that the optimum sample size to charge
into the ZHE should be determined for
wastes containing >0.5% solids. This
calculation results in a charge sample
greater than the capacity of the ZHE.
The Agency today is correcting the
procedure to require a determination on
wastes containing >5% solids. The
sample holding times and errors made
during typesetting are also being
corrected by today's notice.
The Agency received inquiries
indicating that confusion exists
concerning correction factors and ho-.v
they should be applied. Therefore, the
Agency is making a technical correction
in } 8.2.5 of Method 1311. published in
today's notice, by adding a formula for
correcting measured values for
analytical bias. Also, inquiries indicate
that EPA's discussion of the appropriate
GC and GC/MS methods to be used was
improper. The preamble language is
corrected by today's notice to indicate
the appropriate GC and GC/MS
methods to be used.
Method 1311 is also being reorganized
by today's notice by placing the leaching
procedure itself in one section, 7.0. (The
steps of the leaching procedure were
previously presented in sections 7, 8,
and 9 in the March 29,1990 final rule.) In
addition, this notice makes minor
corrections to the quality assurance
section and it is renumbered 8.0. This
reorganization provides consistency
with SW-846.
Appendix II. Method 1311 of the
March 29,1990 final rule is replaced in
its entirety by Method 1311 of this notice
in order to incorporate the corrections,
reorganizations, and clarifications
which are being made by today's notice.
The March 29,1990 final rule provided
an exclusion under 40 CFR 261.4 for
petroleum-contaminated media and
debris that fail the Toxicity
Characteristic. This exclusion applies
only to petroleum-contaminated media
and debris which exhibit the TC for any
one or more of the newly identified
organic constituents, and which are
subject to corrective action under part
280. The regulatory language of this
exclusion in the final rule is revised by
today's notice to correctly reflect this
application.

Mary A. Cade,
Acting Assistant Administrator,
In addition to the corrections made
above, part 261 is amended by revising
appendix II to read as follows:
Ap endix II—Method 1311 Toxicity
Characteristic Leaching Procedure
(TCLP)
1.0 Scope and Application
1.1 The TCLP is designed to determine the
mobility of both organic and inorganic
analytes present in liquid, solid, end
multiphasic wastes.
1.2 If a total analysis of the waste
demonstrates that individual analytes are nul
present in the waste, or that they are present
but at such low concentrations that the
appropriate regulatory levels could not
possibly be exceeded, the TCLP need not be
run.
1.3 If an analysis of any one of the liquid
fractions of the TCLP extract indicates that a
regulated compound is present at such high
concentrations that, even after accounting for
dilution from the other fractions of the
extract, the concentration would be equal !o
or above the regulatory level for that
compound, then the waste is hazardous and it
is not necessary to analyze the remaining
fractions of the extract.
1.4 If an analysis of extract obtained
using a bottle extractor shows that the
concentration of any regulated volatile
analyte equals or exceeds the regulatory
level for that compound, then the waste is
hazardous and extraction using the ZHE is
not necessary. However, extract from a bottle
extractor cannot be used to demonstrate that
the concentration of volatile compounds is
below the regulatory level.
2.0 Summary of Method
2.1 For liquid wastes (i.e., those
containing less than 0.5% dry solid material),
the waste, after filtration through a 0.8 to 0.6
fim glass fiber filter, is defined as the TCLP
extract.
2.2 For wastes containing greater than or
equal to 0.5% solids, the liquid, if any. is
separated from the solid phase and stored for
later analysis; the particle size of the solid
phase is reduced, if necessary. The solid
phase Is extracted with an amount of
extraction fluid equal to 20 times the weight
of the solid phase. The extraction fluid
employed is a function of the alkalinity of the
solid phase of the waste. A special extractor
vessel is used when testing for volatile
analytes (see Table 1 for a list of volatile
compounds). Following extraction, the liquid
extract is separated from the solid phase by
filtration through a 0.6 to 0.8 /im glass fiber
filter.
2.3 If compatible (i.e., multiple phases will
not form on combination), the initial liquid
phase of the waste is added to the liquid
extract, and these are analyzed together. If
incompatible, the liquids are analyzed
separately and the results are mathematically
combined to yield a volume-weighted
average concentration.
3.0 Interferences
3.1 Potential interferences that may be
encountered during analysis are discussed in
the individual analytical methods.
4.0 Appara tus and Ma terials
4.1 Agitation apparatus: The agitation
apparatus must be capable of rotating the
extraction vessel In an end-over-end fashion
(see Figure 1) at 30 ±2 rpm. Suitable devices
known to EPA are identified in Table 2.
4.2 Extraction Vessels.
4.2.1 Zero-Headspace Extraction Vessel
(ZHE). This device is for use only when thp
waste is being tested for the mobility of
-------
26988 Federal Register / Vol. 55. No. 126 / Friday. June 29. 1990 / Rules and Regulations
volatile analytes (i.e., those listed in Table 1).
The ZHE (depicted in Figure 2) allows for
liquid/solid separation within the device, and
effectively precludes headspace. This type of
vessel allows for initial Ikjuid/solid
separation, extraction, and final extract
filtration without opening th« vessel (see
section 4.3.1). Th« vessels shall have an
internal volume of 500-600 mL. and be
equipped to accommodate a 90-110 mm filter.
The devices contain VTTON®' O-rings which
should b« replaced frequently. Suitable ZHE
devices known to EPA are identified in Table
3.
For the ZKE to be acceptable for use. the
piston within the ZHE should be able to be
moved with approximately 15 pounds per
square inch (psi) or less. If it takes more
pressure to move the piston, the O-rings in
the device she-aid be replaced. If this does cot
solve the problem, the ZHE is unacceptable
for TCLP analyses and the manufacturer
should be contacted.
The ZHE should be checked for leaks after
every extraction. If the device contains a
built-in pressure gauge, pressurize the device
to 50 psi. allow it to stand unattended for 1
hour, and recceck the pressure. If the device
does not have a built-in pressure gauge,
pressurize the device to 50 psi, submerge it in
water, and check for the presence of air
bubbles escaping from any of the fittings. If
nressnre is lost check all fittings and inspect
and replace O-rings, if necessary. Retest the
device. IT leakage problems cannot be solved.
the manufacturer should be contacted.
Some ZHE* ate gas pressure to actuate the
ZHE piston, while others use mechanical
pressure (see Table 3). Whereas the volatiles
procedure* (see section 7.3) refers to pounds
per square inch (psi). for the mechanically
actuated piston, the pressure applied is
measured in torque-inch-pounds. Refer to the
manufacturer's instructions as to the proper
conversion.
122 Bottle Extraction Vessel When the
waste is being evaluated using the
nonvolatile extraction, a jar with sufficient
capacity to hold the sample and the
extraction fluid is needed. Headspace is
allowed in this vessel
The extraction bottles may be constructed
from various materials, depending on the
analytes to be analyzed and the nature of the
waste (see section 4.13). It is recommended
that borosilicate glass bottles be used instead
of other types of glass, especially when
inorganics are of concern. Plastic bottles,
other than polytetrafiuoroethylene, shall not
be used if organics are to be investigated.
Bottles are available from a number of
laboratory suppliers. When this type of
extraction vessel is used, the filtration device
discussed in section 4.X2 is used for initial
liquid/solid separation and final extract
filtration.
4.3 Filtration Devices: It is recommended
that all filtration* be performed in a hood.
4.3.1 Zero-Headapace Extractor Vessel
(ZHE): When the waste is evaluated for
volatiles. the zero-headspace extraction
vessel described in section 4-2.1 is used for
filtration. The device shall be capable of
supporting and keeping in place the glass
fiber filter and be able to withstand the
pressure needed to accomplish separation (50
psi).
Note: When it is suspected that the glass
fiber filter has been ruptured, an in-line glass
fiber filter may be used to filter the material
within the ZHE.
4.3.2 Filter Holder When the waste is
evaluated for other than volatile analytes,
any filter bolder capable of supporting a glass
fiber filter and able to withstand the pressure
needed to accomplish separation may be
used. Suitable filter holders range from
simple vacuum units to relatively complex
systems capable of exerting pressures of up
to 50 psi or more. The type of filter bolder
used depends on the properties of the
material to be filtered (see section 4.3.3).
These devices shall have a minimum internal
volume of 300 mL and be equipped to
accommodate a minimum filter size of 47 mm
(filter holders having an internal capacity of
1.5 L or greater, and equipped to
accommodate a 142 nun diameter filter, are
recommended). Vacuum filtration can only be
used for wastes with low solids content
(<10%) and for highly granular, liquid-
containing wastes. All other types of wastes
should be filtered using positive pressure
filtration. Suitable filter holders known to
EPA are shown in Table 4.
4.3.3 Materials of Construction:
Extraction vessels and filtration devices shall
be made of inert materials which will not
leach or absorb waste components. Class,
polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). or type 318
stainless steel equipment may be used when
evaluating the mobility of both organic and
inorganic components. Devices made of high
density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene
(PP), or polyvinyl chloride (PVC) may be used
only when evaluating the mobility of metals.
Borosilicate glass bottles are recommended
for use over other types of glass bottles,
especially when inorganics are analytes of
concern.
4.4 Filters: Filters shall be made of
borosilicate glass fiber, shall contain no
binder materials, and shall have an effective
pore size of 0.6 to 0.8 jim. or equivalent
Filters known to EPA which meet these
specifications are identified in Table 5. Pre-
filters most not be used. When evaluating the
mobility of metals, filters shall be acid-
washed prior to use by rinsing with IN nitric
acid followed by three consecutive rinses
with deionized distilled water (a minimum of
1 L per rinse is recommended). Class fiber
filter are fragile and should be handled with
care.
4.5 pH Meters: T.ie meter should be
accurate to ± 0.05 units at 25°C.
4.6 ZHE Extract Collection Devices:
TEDLAR® * bags or glass, stainless steel or
PTFE gag-tight syringes are used to collect
the initial liquid phase and the final extract of
the waste when using the ZHE device. The
devices listed are recommended for use
under the following conditions:
4 6.1 If a waste contains an aqueous
liquid phase or if a waste does not contain a
significant amount of nonaqueous liquid (i.e.,
<1% of total waste), the TEDLAR® bag or a
1 VITON* b s regl»t»ied tndemari of DuPtmt.
• TEDLAR® i» • registered trademark of Duponl.
600 mL syringe should be used to collect and
combine the initial liquid and solid extract
4.6.2 If • waste contains a significant
amount of nonaqueous liquid in the initial
liquid phase (i.e^ >1% of total waste), the
syringe or the TEDLAR® bag may be used
for both the intitial solid/liquid separation
and the final extract filtration. However,
analysts should use one or the other, not
both.
4.6.3 V the waste contains no initial liquid
phase (is 100% solid) or has no significant
solid phase (is 100% liquid), either the
TEDLAR® bag or the syringe may be used. If
the syringe is used, discard the first 5 mL of
liquid expressed from the device. The
remaining aliquots are used for analysis.
4.7 ZHE Extraction Fluid Transfer
Devices: Any device capable of transferring
the extraction fluid into the ZHE without
changing the nature of the extraction fluid is
acceptable (e.g. a positive displacement or
peristaltic pump, a gas tight syringe, pressure
filtration unit (see section 4.3.2), or other ZHE
device).
4.8 Laboratory Balance: Any laboratory
balance accurate to within ± 0.01 grams may
be used (all weight measurements are to be
within ± 0.1 grams).
4.9 Beaker or Erlenmeyer flask, glass, 500
mL
4.10 Watchglass, appropriate diameter to
cover beaker or erlenmeyer flask.
4.11 Magnetic stlrrer.
5.0 Reagents
5.1 Reagent grade chemicals shall be used
in all tests. Unless otherwise indicated, it is
intended that all reagents shall conform to
the specifications of the Committee on
Analytical Reagents of the American
Chemical Society, where such specifications
are available. Other grades may be used,
provided it is first ascertained that the
reagent is of sufficiently high purity to permit
its use without lessening the accuracy of the
determination.
5.2 Reagent water. Reagent water is
defined as water in which an interferant is
not observed at or above the methods
detection limit of the analyte(s) of interest
For nonvolatile extractions, ASTM Type II
water or equivalent meets the definition of
reagent water. For volatile extractions, it is
recommended that reagent water be
generated by any of the following methods.
Reagent water should be monitored
periodically for impurities.
5.2.1 Reagent water for volatile
extractions may be generated by passing tap
water through a carbon filter bed containing
about 500 grams of activated carbon (Calgon
Corp., Filtrasorb-300 or equivalent).
5.2.2 A water purification system
(Millipore Super-Q or equivalent) may also be
used to generate reagent water for volatile
extractions.
5.2.3 Reagent water for volatile
extractions may also be prepared by boiling
water for 15 minutes. Subsequently, while
maintaining the water temperature at 90 + 5
degrees C, bubble a contaminant-free inert
gas (e.g.. nitrogen) through the water for 1
hour. While still hot transfer the water to a
narrow mouth screw-cap bottle under zero-

the filter, or when liquid flow has ceased at
50 psi (i.e., filtration does not result in any
additional filtrate within any 2 minute
period), «top the filtration.
•Note: Instantaneous application of high
pressure can degrade the glass .fiber filter and
may cause prema ture plugging.
7.1.1,8 The material in the filter holder is
defined as the «olid phase of the waste, and
the 'filtrate is defined as the liquid phase.
Note: Some wastes, such as oily wastes
and some paint wastes, will obviously
contain some material that appears to be a
liquid. Even after applying vacuum or
pressure filtration, as outlined in section
7.1.1.7, this material may not filter. 7f this is

7.1.2 If the percent solids determined in
section 7.1.1.9 is equal to or greater than 0.5^,
then proceed either to section 7.1.3 to
determine whether the solid material requires
particle size reduction or to section 7.1.2.1 if it
is noticed that a small amount of the filtrate
is entrained in wetting of the filter. If the
percent solids determined in section 7.1.1.9 is
less than 0.5%, then proceed to section 7.2.9 if
the nonvolatile TCLP is to be performed and
to section 7.3 with a fresh portion of the
waste if the volatile TCLP is to be performed.
7.1.2.1 Remove the solid phase and filter
from the filtration apparatus.
7.1.2.2 Dry the filter and solid phase at
100± 20°C until two successive weighings
yield the same value within ± 1%. Record the
final weight.
Note: Caution should be taken to ensure
that the subject solid will not flash upon
heating. It is recommended that the drying
oven be vented to a hood or other
appropriate device.
7.1.2.3 Calculate the percent dry solids as
follows:
dry solids =

7.1.2.4 If the percent dry solids is less
than 0.5%, then proceed to section 7.2.9 if the
nonvolatile TCLP is to be performed, and to
section 7.3 if the volatile TCLP is to be
performed. If the percent dry solids is greater
than or equal to 0.5%, and if the nonvolatile
TCLP is to be performed, return to the
beginning of this section (7.1) and, with a
(resh portion of waste, determine whether
particle size reduction is necessary (section
7.1.3) and determine the appropriate
extraction fluid (section 7.1.4). If only the
volatile TCLP is to be performed, see the note
in section 7.1.4.
7.1.3 Determination of whether the waste
requires particle size reduction (particle size
is reduced during this step): Using the solid
portion of the waste, evaluate the solid for
particle size. Particle size reduction is
required, unless the solid has a surface area
per gram of material equal to or greater than
3.1 cm', or is smaller than 1 cm in its
narrowest dimension (i.e., is capable of
passing through a 0.5 mm (0.375 inch)
standard sieve). If the surface area is smaller
or the particle size larger than described
above, prepare the solid portion of the waste
for extraction by crushing, cutting, or grinding
the waste to a surface area or particle size as
described above. If the solids are prepared
for organic volatiles extraction, special
precautions must be taken (see section 7.3.6).
Note: Surface area criteria are meant for
filamentous (e.g., paper, cloth, and similar)
waste materials. Actual measurement of
surface area is not required, nor is it
recommended. For materials that do not
obviously meet the criteria, sample-specific
methods would need to be developed and
employed to measure the surface area. Such
methodology is currently not available.
7.1.4 Determination of appropriate
extraction fluid: If the solid content of the
waste is greater than or equal to 0.5% and if
the sample will be extracted for nonvolatile
constituents (section 7.2), determine the
appropriate fluid (section 5.7) for the
nonvolatiles extraction as follows:
Note: TCLP extraction for volatile
constituents uses only extraction fluid frl
(section 5.7.1). Therefore, if TCLP extraction
for nonvolatiles is not required, proceed to
section 7.3.
7.1.4.1 Weigh out a small subsample of
the solid phase of the waste, reduce the solid
(if necessary) to a particle size of
approximately 1 mm in diameter or less, and
transfer 5.0 grams of the solid phase of the
waste to a 500 mL beaker or Erlenmeyer
flask.
7.1.4.2 Add 96.5 mL of reagent water to
the beaker, cover with a watchglass, and stir
vigorously for 5 minutes using a magnetic
etirrer. Measure and record the pM. If the pH
is <5.0, use extraction fluid #1. Proceed to
section 7.2.
7.1.4.3 If the pH from section 7.1.4.2 is
>5.0, add 3.5 mL IN NCI, slurry briefly, cover
with a watchglass, heat to 50°C, and hold at
50°C for 10 minutes.
7.1.4.4 Let the solution cool to room
temperature and record the pH. If the pH is
<5.0, use extraction fluid #1. If the pH is
>5.0, use extraction fluid P2. Proceed to
section 7.2.
7.1.5 If the aliquot of the waste used for
the preliminary evaluation (sections 7.1.1-
7.1.4) was determined to be 100% solid at
section 7.1.1.1, then it can be used for the
section 7.2 extraction (assuming at least 100
grams remain), and the section 7.3 extraction
(assuming at least 25 grams remain). If the
aliquot was subjected to the procedure in
section 7.1.1.7, then another aliquot shall be
used for the volatile extraction procedure in
section 7.3. The aliquot of the waste
subjected to the procedure in section 7.1.1.7
might be appropriate for use for the section
72 extraction if an adequate amount of solid
(as determined by section 7.1.1.9) was
obtained. The amount of solid necessary is
dependent upon whether a sufficient amount
of extract will be produced to support the
analyses. If an adequate amount of solid
remains, proceed to section 7.2.10 of the
nonvolatile TCLP extraction.
7.2 Procedure When Volatiles are not
Involved. A minimum sample size of 100
grams (solid and liquid phases) is
recommended. In some cases, a larger sample
size may be appropriate, depending on the
solids content of the waste sample (percent
solids, See section 7.1.1), whether the initial
liquid phase of the waste will be miscible
with the aqueous extract of the solid, and
whether inorganics, semivolatile organics,
pesticides, and herbicides are all analytes of
concern. Enough solids should be generated
for extraction such that the volume of TCLP
extract will be sufficient to support all of the
analyses required. If the amount of extract
generated by a single TCLP extraction will
not be sufficient to perform all of the
analyses, more than one extraction may be
performed and the extracts from each
combined and aliquoted for analysis.
7.2.1 If the waste will obviously yield no
liquid when subjected to pressure filtration
(i.e., is 100% solid, see section 7.1.1), weigh
out a subsample of the waste (100 gram
minimum) and proceed to section 7.2.9.
7.2.2 If the sample is liquid or multiphasic,
liquid/solid separation is required. This
involves the filtration device described in
section 4.3.2 and is outlined in sections 7.2.3
to 7.2.B.
7.2.3 Pre-weigh the container that will
receive the filtrate.
7.2.4 Assemble the filter holder and filter
following the manufacturer's instructions.
Place the filter on the support screen and
secure. Acid-wash the filter if evaluating the
mobility of metals (see section 4.4).
Note: Acid-washed filters may be used for
all nonvolatile extractions even when metals
are not of concern.
7.2.5 Weigh out a subsample of the waste
(100 gram minimum) and record the weight If
the waste contains <0.5% dry solids (section
7.1.2), the liquid portion of the waste, after
filtration, is defined as the TCLP extract.
Therefore, enough of the sample should be
filtered so that the amount of filtered liquid
will support all of the analyses required of
the TCLP extract. For wastes containing
>0.5% dry solids (sections 7.1.1 or 7.1.2), use
the percent solids information obtained in
section 7.1.1 to determine the optimum
sample size (100 gram minimum) for filtration.
Enough solids should be generated by
filtration to support the analyses to be
performed on the TCLP extract.
7.2.6 Allow slurries to stand to permit the
solid phase to settle. Wastes that settle
slowly may be centrifuged prior to filtration.
Use centrifugation only as an aid to filtration.
If the waste is centrifuged, the liquid should
be decanted and filtered followed by
filtration of the solid portion of the waste
through the same filtration system.
7.2.7 Quantitatively transfer the waste
sample (liquid and solid phases) to the filter
holder (see section 4.3.2). Spread the waste
sample evenly over the surface of the filter. If
filtration of the waste at 4 "C reduces the
amount of expressed liquid over what would
be expressed at room temperature, then
allow the sample to warm up to room
temperature in the device before filtering.
Note: If waste material (>1% of the original
sample weight) has obviously adhered to the
container used to transfer the sample to the
filtration apparatus, determine the weight of
-------

26*91
this residue and subtract it from the sample
weight-determined in section 7,2.5,to
determine the weight of 4he-waste sample
that will be filtered.
Gradually apply vacuum or-gentle pressure
of 1-10 psi, until air or pressurizing gas moves
through the filter. If this point is reached
under 10j>si, and if no additional .liquid has
passed .through the filter in any 2 minute
interval, .slowly increase the pressure in 10
psi increments to a maximum of 50 psi. Alter
each incremental increase of 10 psi, if the
pressurizing gas 'has not mover! through the
filter, and if no additional liquid has-passed
through the filter in any 2 minute interval,
proceed to the next 10 psi increment. When
the pressurizing gas begins to move through
the filter, or when the liquid flow has ceased
at 50 psi (i.e., filtration does not result in any
additional filtrate within a 2 minute period).
stop the filtration.
Note: Instantaneous application of high
pressure can degrade the glass fiber filter and
may cause premature plugging.
7.2.8 The material In the filter bolder is
defined as the solid phase of the waste, and
the filtrate is defined as the liquid phase.
Weigh the filtrate. Th« liquid phase may now
be either analyzed (See section 7.2.12)-or
stored at 4°C until time of analysis.
Note: Some wastes, such as oily wastes
end some paint wastes, will-obviously
contain some material .that appears to be a
liquid. Even after applying vacuum or
pressure filtration, as outlined in section 7.2.7.
this material may not filter. If this is the case.
the material within the-filtration device is
defined as a solid and is carried through the
extraction as a solid. Do not replace the
original filter with a fresh filter under any
circumstances. Use only one filter.
7.2.9 If the waste contains <0.5%dry
solids (see section 7.1.2), proceed to section
7.2.13. If the waste contains >0.5% dry solids
(see section 7.1.1 or 7.1.2), and if particle size
reduction of the solid was needed in section
7.1.3, proceed to section 7.2.10. If the waste as
received passes afl.5 mm sieve,
quantitatively transfer the solid material into
the ex tractor bottle along with the filter used
to -separate the initial liquid from the solid
phase, and proceed to section 7.2.11.
7.2.10 Prepare the solid portion of the
waste for extraction by crushing, cutting, or
grinding the waste to a surf ace area or
particle «ize as described in section 7.1.3.
When the surface area .or particle size has
been appropriately altered, qualitatively
transfer the-solid material into an extractor
bottle. Include the filter used to separate the
initial liquid irons the .solid phase.
Note: Sieving extract as
follows:
7.2.13.1 If the waste contained no initial
liquid phase, the filtered liquid material
obtained from section 7.2.12 is defined as the
TCLP extract. Proceed to section 7.2.14.
7.2.13.2 If compatible (e.g.. multiple
phases will not result on combination),
combine the filtered liquid resulting from
section 7.2.12 with the initial liquid phase of
the waste obtained in section 7.2.7. This
combined liquid is defined as the TCLP
extract. Proceed to section 7.2.14.
7.2.13.3 If the initial liquid phase of the
waste, as obtained from section 7.2.7, is not
or may Jiot be compatible with the filtered
liquid resulting from section 7.2.12, do not
combine these liquids. Analyze these liquids,
collectively defined as theTCLP extract, and
combine the results mathematically, as
described in section 7.2.14.
7.2.14 Following collection of the TCLP
extract, the pH -of the extract should be
recorded. Immediately aliquot and preserve
the extract for •analysis. Metals ahqutrts must
be acidified with nitric acid to pH <2. If

extract -shall be analyzed as soon as-possible.

extract shall be prepared and analyzed

TCLP extracts to be analyzed for BKFtals shall
be acid digested except in those instances
where digestion causes loss «f metallic

extract ishows -that the concentration-of any
regulated metallic anaryte exceeds the
regulatory •level, then the •waste is hazardous
and digestion of the extract is not necessary.
However,-data on undigested extracts alone
cannot be used to demonstrate that the waste
is not hazardous. If the individual phases are
to be analyzed separately, determine the
volume of the individual phases (to ± 0.5%),
conduct the appropriate analyses, and
combine the results mathematically by using
a simple volume-weighted average:

extraction fluid .equal to 20 times the weight
of the solid phase.
Charge the ZHE with sample only once and
do not open the device until the final extract
(of the solid) has been collected. Repeated
filling of the ZHE to obtain 25 grams of solid
is not permitted.
Do not allow the waste, the initial liquid
phase, or the extract to be exposed to the
atmosphere for any more time than is
absolutely necessary. Any manipulation of
these materials should be done when cold
(4°C) to minimize loss of volatiles
7.3.1 Pre-weigh the (evacuated) filtrate
collection container (See section 4.6) and set
aside. If using a TEDLAR1 bag, express all

separation, and take an aliquot from the
liquid in the bag for analysis. The containers
listed in section 4.6 are recommended for use
under the conditions stated in sections 4.8.1-
4.6.3.
7.3.2 Place the ZHE piston within the
body of the ZHE (it may be helpful first to
moisten the piston O-rings slightly with
extraction fluid). Adjust the piston within the
ZHE body to a height that will minimize the
distance the piston will have to move once
the ZHE is charged with sample (based upon
sample size requirements determined from
section 7.3, section 7.1.1 and/or 7.1.2). Secure
the gas inlet/outlet flange (bottom flange)
onto the ZHE body in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions. Secure the glass
fiber filter between the support screens and
set aside. Set liquid inlet/outlet flange (top
flange) aside.
7.3.3 If the waste is 100% solid (see
section 7.1.1), weigh out a subsample (25
gram maximum) of the waste, record weight,
and proceed to section 7.3.5.
7.3.4 If the waste contains <5% dry solids
(section 7.1.2), the liquid portion of waste,
after filtration, is defined as the TCLP
extract. Filter enough of the sample so that
the amount of filtered liquid will support all
of the volatile analyses required. For wastes
containing >5% dry solids (sections 7.1.1
and/or 7.1.2), use the percent solids
information obtained in section 7.1.1 to
determine the optimum sample size to charge
into the ZHE. The recommended sample size
is as follows:
7.3.4.1 For wastes containing <5% solids
(see Section 7.1.1), weigh out a 500 gram
subsample of waste and record the weight.
7.3.4.2 For wastes containing >5% solids
(see Section 7.1.1), determine the amount of
waste to charge into the ZHE as follows:
Weight of waste to charge ZHE =
25
percent solids (section 7.1.1)
X100
Weigh out a subsample of the waste of the
appropriate size and record the weight.
7.3.5 If particle size reduction of the solid
portion of the waste was required In section
7.1.3, proceed to section 7.3.6. If particle size
reduction was not required in section 7.1.3,
proceed to section 7.3.7.
7.3.6 Prepare the waste for extraction by
crushing, cutting, or grinding the solid portion
of the waste to a surface area or particle size
as described in section 7.1.3.1. Wastes and
appropriate reduction equipment should be
refrigerated, if possible, to 4°C prior to
particle size reduction. The means used to
effect particle size reduction must not
generate heat in and of itself. If reduction of
the solid phase of the waste is necessary,
exposure of the waste to the atmosphere
should be avoided to the extent possible.
Note: Sieving of the waste is not
recommended due to the possibility that
volatiles may be lost. The use of an
appropriately graduated ruler is
recommended as an acceptable alternative.
Surface area requirements are meant for
filamentous (e.g., paper, cloth) and similar
waste materials. Actual measurement of
surface area is not recommended.
When the surface area or particle size has
been appropriately altered, proceed to
section 7.3.7.
7.3.7 Waste slurries need not be allowed
to stand to permit the solid phase to settle.
Do not centrifuge wastes prior to filtration.
7.3.8 Quantitatively transfer the entire
sample (liquid and solid phases) quickly to
the ZHE. Secure the filter and support
screens onto the top flange of the device and
secure the top flange to the ZHE body m
accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions. Tighten all ZHE fittings and
place the device in the vertical position (gas
inlet/outlet flange on the bottom). Do not
attach the extract collection device to the top
plate.
Note: If waste material (>l%ot original
sample weight) has obviously adhered to the
container used to transfer the sample to the
ZHE, determine the weight of this residue
and subtract it from the sample weight
determined in section 7.3.4 to determine the
weight of the waste sample that will be
filtered.
Attach a gas line to the gas inlet/outlet
valve (bottom flange) and, with the liquid
inlet/outlet valve (top flange) open, begin
applying gentle pressure of 1-10 psi (or more
if necessary) to force all headspace slowly
out of the ZHE device into a hood. At the first
appearance of liquid from the liquid inlet/
outlet valve, quickly close the valve and
discontinue pressure. If filtration of the waste
at 4 °C reduces the amount of expressed
liquid over what would be expressed at room
temperature, then allow the sample to warm
up to room temperature in the device before
filtering. If the waste is 100% solid (see
section 7.1.1), slowly increase the pressure to
a maximum of 50 psi to force most of the
headspace out of the device and proceed to
section 7.3.12.
7.3.9 Attach the evacuated pre-weighed
filtrate collection container to the liquid
inlet/outlet valve and open the valve. Begin
applying gentle pressure of 1-10 psi to force
the liquid phase of the sample into the filtrate
collection container. If no additional liquid
has passed through the filter in any 2 minute
interval, slowly increase the pressure in 10
psi increments to a maximum of 50 psi. After
each incremental increase of 10 psi, if no
additional liquid has passed through the filter
in any 2 minute interval, proceed to the next
10 psi increment. When liquid flow has
ceased such that continued pressure filtration
at 50 psi does not result in any additional
filtrate within a 2 minute period, stop the
filtration. Close the liquid inlet/outlet valve,
discontinue pressure to the piston, and
disconnect and weigh the filtrate collection
container.
Note: Instantaneous application of high
pressure can degrade the glass fiber filter and
may cause premature plugging.
7.3.10 The material in the ZHE is defined
as the solid phase of the waste and the
filtrate is defined as the liquid phase.
Note: Some wastes, such as oily wastes
and some paint wastes, will obviously
contain some material that appears to be a
liquid. Even after applying pressure filtration,
this material will not filter. If this is the case,
the material within the filtration device is
defined as a solid and is carried through the
TCLP extraction as a solid.
If the original waste contained <0.5% dry
solids (see section 7.1.2), this filtrate is
defined as the TCLP extract and is analyzed
directly. Proceed to section 7.3.15.
7.3.11 The liquid phase may now be either
analyzed immediately (See sections 7.3.13
through 7.3.15) or stored at 4'C under minimal
headspace conditions until time of analysis.
Determine the weight of extraction fluid #1
to add to the ZHE as follows:
Weight of extraction fluid =
20 X percent solids (section 7.1.1) x weight of waste filtered (section 7.3.4 or 7.3.8)

7.3.12 The following sections detail how
to add the appropriate amount of extraction
fluid to the solid material within the ZHE and
agitation of the ZHE vessel. Extraction fluid
£1 is used in all cases (See section 5.7).
7.3.12.1 With the ZHE in the vertical
position, attach a line from the extraction
fluid reservoir to the liquid inlet/outlet valve.
The line used shall contain fresh extraction
fluid and should be preflushed with fluid to
eliminate any air pockets in the line. Release
gas pressure on the ZHE piston (from the gas
inlet/outlet valve), open the liquid inlet/
outlet valve, and begin transferring extraction
fluid (by pumping or similar means) into the
ZHE. Continue pumping extraction fluid into
the ZHE until the appropriate amount of fluid
has been introduced into the device.
7.3.12.2 After the extraction fluid has
been added, immediately close the liquid
inlet/outlet valve and disconnect the
extraction fluid line. Check the ZHE to ensure
that all valves are in their closed positions.
Manually rotate the device in an end-over-
end fashion 2 or 3 times. Reposition the ZHK
in the vertical position with the liquid inlet/
outlet valve on top. Pressurize the ZHE to 5-
10 psi (if necessary) and slowly open the
liquid inlet/outlet valve to bleed out any
headspace (into a hood) that may have been
introduced due to the addition of extraction
fluid. This bleeding shall be done quickly and
shall be stopped at the first appearance of
liquid from the valve. Re-pressurize the ZHE
with 5-10 psi and check all ZHE fittings to
ensure that they are closed.
7.3.12.3 Place the ZHE in the rotary
agitation apparatus (if it is not already there)
and rotate at 30 ± 2 rpm for 18 ± 2 hours.
Ambient temperature (i.e.. temperature of
room in which extraction occurs) shall be
maintained at 22 ± 3°C during agitation.
7.3.13 Following the 18 ± 2 hour agitation
period check the pressure behind the ZHE
piston by quickly opening and closing the gas
inlet/outlet valve and noting the escape of
gas. If the pressure has not been maintained
(i.e., no gas release observed), the device is
leaking. Check the ZHE for leaking as
specified in lection 4.2.1, and perform the
extraction again with a new sample of waste.
If the pressure within the device has been
maintained, the material in the extractor
vessel is once again separated into its
component liquid and solid phases. If the
waste contained an initial liquid phase, the
liquid may be filtered directly into the same
filtrate collection container (i.e., TEDLAR*
bag) holding the initial liquid phase of the
waste. A separate filtrate collection container
must be used if combining would create
multiple phases, or there is not enough
volume left within the filtrate collection
container. Filter through the glass fiber filter.
using the ZHE device as discussed in section
7.3.9. All extract shall be filtered and
collected if the TEDLAR* bag is used, if the
extract is multiphasic, or if the waste
contained an initial liquid phase (see sections
4.6 and 7.3.1).
Note: An in-line glass fiber filter may be
used to filter the material within the ZHE if it
is suspected that the glass fiber filter has
been ruptured.
7.3.14 If the original waste contained no
initial liquid phase, the filtered liquid
material obtained from section 7.3.13 is
defined as the TCLP extract. If the waste
contained an initial liquid phase, the filtered
liquid material obtained from section 7.3.13
and the initial liquid phase (section 7.3.9) are
collectively defined as the TCLP extract.
7.3.15 Following collection of the TCLP
extract, immediately prepare the extract for
analysis and store with minimal headspace at
4°C until analyzed. Analyze the TCLP extract
according to the appropriate analytical
methods. If the individual phases are to be
analyzed separately (i.e.. are not miscible).
determine the volume of the individual
phases (to 0.5%), conduct the appropriate
analyses, and combine the results
mathematically by using a simple volume-
weighted average:

C, =The concentration of the analyte of
concern in the first phase (mg/L).

concentrations in the TCLP extract with the
levels identified in the appropriate
regulations. Refer to section 8.0 for quality
assurance requirements.

8.1 A minimum of one blank (using the
same extraction fluid as used for the
samples) must be analyzed for every 20
extractions that have been conducted in an
extraction vessel.
8.2 A matrix spike shall be performed for
each waste type (e.g.. wastewater treatment
sludge, contaminated soil, etc.) unless the
result exceeds the regulatory level and the
data is being used solely to demonstrate thai
the waste property exceeds the regulatory
level. A minimum of one matrix spike must
be analyzed tor each analytical batch. The
bias determined from the matrix spike
determination shall be used to correct the
measured values. (See sections 8.2.4 and
8.2.5.) As a minimum, follow the matrix spike
addition guidance provided in each analytical
method.
B.C.I Matrix spikes are to be added afler
filtration of the TCLP extract and before
preservation. Matrix spikes should not be
added prior to TCLP extraction of the sample.
8.2.2 In most cases, matrix spikes should
be added at a concentration equivalent to the
corresponding regulatory level. If the analytt
concentration is less than one half the
regulatory level, the spike concentration mny
be as low as one half of the analyte
concentration, but may not be not less than
five times the method detection limit. In order
to avoid differences in matrix effects, the
matrix spikes must be added to the same
nominal volume of TCLP extract as that
which was analyzed for the unspiked sample.
B.2.3 The purpose of the matrix spike is to
monitor the performance of the analytical
methods used, and to determine whether
matrix interferences exist. Use of other
internal calibration methods, modification of
the analytical methods, or use of alternate
analytical methods may be needed to
accurately measure the analyte concentration
of the TCLP extract when the recovery of the
matrix spike is below the expected analytical
method performance.
8.2.4 Matrix spike recoveries are
calculated by the following formula-
5/.R (% Recovery) = 100 [X.-XJ/K
where:
X, = measured value for the spiked sample,
Xu = measured value for the unspiked sample.
and
K= known value of the spike in the sample
8.2.5 Measured values are corrected for
analytical bias using the following formula:
where:
X, = corrected value, and
Xu = measured value of the unspiked sample.
8.3 All quality control measures described
in the appropriate analytical methods shall
be followed.
8.4 Samples must undergo TCLP
extraction within the following time periods
