3 Waste Code Specific Capacity Analyses for Third Third Promulgated Wastes
This section presents the results of t:he analyses of required capacity
for each alternative technology on a waste code-specific basis for the wastes
in the final Third Third rule. Tables 3-1 through 3-236, located later in
this section, present waste code-specific analyses of the alternative capacity
required by the wastes in the proposed Third Third rule. The capacity
analysis for soils contaminated with Third Third promulgated wastes is
presented in section 3.8 and waste-code specific analyses are presented in
Tables 3-239 through 3-314. An index (Exhibit 3-1) of waste codes listed
alphabetically provides the appropriate Table number, chapter section, and
page number for waste codes relevant to today's final rule. Tables are not
provided for waste codes with zero volumes of waste. These zero quantity
waste codes are also listed alphabetically in Exhibit 3-1 indicating their
status.
The capacity analyses referenced in this section are based primarily on
data from the TSDR Survey. However, as discussed in Section 2.1.1 of this
document, supplemental data sources were relied upon in some cases. The data
set referred to in this section includes the TSDR Survey data as well as these
supplemental data sources.
The land disposed waste volume data from the TSDR Survey were sorted by
waste code and type of alternative treatment/recovery required. This
information was then combined and summarized to create technology-specific and
waste code-specific capacity analysis tables for the Third Third promulgated
wastes. The raw data used to develop the capacity analysis tables are
included in Appendices D and E. The Analysis of Required Capacity Data for
the Third Third Wastes Final Rule in the docket contains the amount of
required capacity for Third Third promulgated wastes for each technology.
In a limited number of instances, it was not feasible to assign waste
streams directly to the BOAT; however, these wastes were assigned to
equivalent alternative technologies. In these cases, the waste code
discussions explain why the waste stream could not be assigned directly to
BOAT and how the stream was handled. (Subsection 4.1.2 explains the
methodology used to assign alternative technologies.)
3-1
-------
This subsection also presents discussions for each waste code in the
proposed Third Third rule requiring alternative treatment. Each discussion
contains a description of the waste, identifies the hazardous constituents
for which it is listed, and identifies the BDAT used to set the treatment
standard.
The TSDR Survey indicated volumes of mixtures greater than one million
being land disposed. These mixtures contain P and U waste codes. Based on
discussions with the facility, EPA believes that these waste streams contain a
very small volume of P and U waste codes that have been mixed with other
wastes. EPA has estimated that the actual amount of P and U wastes that will
need alternative treatment capacity is small and has developed an estimate of
P and U volumes based on discussions with the facility. In particular, EPA
developed estimates for the following P and U waste codes: P020, P069, U002,
U007, U008, U012, U031, U044, U055, U070, U080, U105, U106, U122. U133, U138,
U151, U157, U162, U169, U188, U192, U197, U211, andU226. Discussions on the
basis for developing estimates for these wastes is provided in the section for
each waste code.
In the proposed rule, EPA requested comment concerning the volumes of
deepwell-injected P and U wastes, and EPA's assumption that volumes did not
exceed 100,000 gallons at the point of generation. Several commenters
responded that this estimate was inaccurate, and that several P and U waste
streams were much larger as generated. EPA contacted these commenters (phone
logs are recorded in Appendix L) to verify the volumes being generated. From
these discussions, it was determined that these waste streams were not
hazardous wastes due to the mixture rule exception (Section 261.3(a)(2)(iv)).
These waste streams, therefore, do not require alternative treatment capacity.
In addition, the large volume of the streams did not reflect the volume of P
and U wastes in the stream -- which resulted from de minimis losses -- but
rather the total wastewater volume. One other commenter disagreed with EPA's
methodology but was unable to provide any hard data. EPA recognizes that P
and U waste streams may be generated in excess of 100,000 gallons in certain
instances. However, EPA believes that these situations are unique and has not
changed the methodology for today's final rule.

-------
In some cases wastes have noc been assigned to their BDAT technology but
instead have been assigned to technologies EPA believes will be able to
achieve the BDAT treatment standard. These technologies are referred to in
this document as equivalent BDATs. For example, where the BDAT is based on
incineration, but EPA has not precluded reuse as fuel, reuse as fuel was
considered an equivalent BDAT for these wastes.

3 1 Characteristic Wastes
3.1.1 D001 Ignitable Wastes
RCRA hazardous wastes classified as D001 are hazardous because of the
characteristic of ignitability. Paraphrasing 40 CFR 261.21, a waste is
ignitable if it can be categorized as: (1) a liquid with a flash point less
than 140°F; (2) an ignitable compressed gas; (3) a nonliquid and is capable of
causing a fire through friction, absorption of moisture, or spontaneous
chemical changes and, when ignited, burns vigorously and persistently; or
(4) an oxidizer EPA has identified separate BOAT technologies for the D001
waste categories. EPA has determined that the D001 ignitable liquids
subcategory should be divided into three treatability groups: (1) D001
ignitable liquid nonwastewaters with a TOC content greater or equal to ten
percent, (2) D001 ignitable liquid nonwastewaters with a TOC content of less
than ten percent, and (3) D001 ignitable liquid wastewaters. EPA is
promulgating incineration, fuel substitution, or recovery as methods of
treatment for ignitable liquid nonwastewaters with a TOC content greater than
or equal to ten percent. For ignitable liquid nonwastewaters with a TOC
content of less than ten percent, EPA is promulgating deactivation as the
method of treatment. EPA is also promulgating deactivation as the method of
treatment for D001 ignitable liquid wastewaters.
In the proposed rule, EPA proposed incineration, recovery or reuse as
fuel as the methods of treatment for D001 liquids mixed with sludges and
solids Based on information available for the proposed rule, EPA had
identified insufficient incineration capacity for these wastes; consequentlv
EPA proposed a national capacity variance. EPA requested comments on the
availability of capacity for incineration of D001 liquids mixed with sludges
and solids Several commenters stated that adequate capacity exists to :rea:
D001 liquids mixed with sludges and solids, and therefore that no capacitv
variance should be granted for these wastes. Based on the review of avai.ab.e
sludges and solids treatment capacity data for incineration and cement ki.r.s
EPA has determined that 41 million gallons of capacity is available to rrea:
the 12.4 million gallons of surface-disposed D001 liquids mixed with sludges
and solids Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance f:r
these wastes.
3-13
-------
EPA is promulgating deactivation as Che method of treatment for DCOi
ignitable gases. EPA is also promulgating deactivation as the method of
treatment for ignitable reactive D001 wastes and D001 oxidizers
As shown in Tables 3-1 and 3-2, most of the D001 wastes identified from
the data set as requiring alternative treatment have been assigned to one of
the BDAT technologies based on the physical form of the waste and whether it
was a wastewater or nonwastewater. One waste stream reported in the data set
was a mixed D001 and D003 (reactive) waste. EPA believes that this waste
stream will require chemical oxidation followed by chemical precipitation in
order to meet all of the applicable treatment standards. Another waste stream
was mixed with a waste code requiring vitrification and therefore was sent to
that technology.
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for all D001 wastes (e.g., ignitable liquids, ignitable
compressed gases, and oxidizers) requiring alternative treatment and is
therefore not granting a capacity variance for these wastes.
For D001 ignitable wastes being underground injected, EP has identified
that there is adequate alternative treatment capacity available. EPA,
therefore, is not granting a capacity variance to D001 ignitable wastes being
deepwell injected.

3.L.2 D002 Corrosive Wastes
RCRA hazardous wastes classified as D002 are hazardous because of the
characteristic of corrosivity Paraphrasing 40 CFR 261.22, a waste is
corrosive if it can be classified as: (1) an aqueous waste with a pH less
than or equal to 2.0, or greater than or equal to 12.5, or (2) a liquid that
can corrode steel at a specified rate and temperature.
For D002 wastewaters and nonwastewaters with a pH less than or equal to
2.0 or greater than or equal to 12.5, EPA has identified three treatability
groups: acids, alkalines, and other corrosives For the acid and alkaline
subcategories, EPA is promulgating deactivation, which includes
neutralization, as the method of treatment. Several mixed D002 waste streams
were reported in the data set. EPA has identified that additional treatment
will be required after the BOAT treatment to meet all of the applicable
treatment standards for these waste streams. Table 3-3 identifies the volumes
of D002 acid and alkaline wastes deepwell-injected and surface-disposed. EPA
believes sufficient neutralization capacity exists for acid and alkaline D002
wastes that are surface disposed; therefore, EPA is not granting a national
capacity variance for them.
For the D002 other corrosives category, EPA is promulgating deactivation
as the method of treatment. These wastes can be deactivated using chemical
reagents. In addition, EPA believes that these wastes are generated in low
volumes. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for
these wastes that are surface disposed.
For D002 wastes being deepwell-injected, EPA has identified that
inadequate alternative capacity is available to treat these wastes. As
indicated in Appendix VI of today's rule, EPA has identified several
technologies for treating D002 wastewaters and nonwastewaters. The aggregate
capacity of these technologies is inadequate for treating D002 wastewaters and
nonwastewaters
In the proposed rule, EPA proposed to grant a capacity variance for
deepwell-injected D002 wastewaters. During the public comment period, several
commenters stated that D002 nonwastewaters were also injected. EPA has
3-17
-------
reevaluated che analysis for D002 wastes and agrees, and is therefore granting
a national capacity variance for deepwell-injected D002 wastawaters and
nonwastewaters. This variance, however, does not apply to corrosives
regulated in the California list rulemaking. These California list corrosives
are subject to the treatment standards promulgated in the California list
rulemaking, on August 8, 1990.

3.1.3 D003 Reactive Wastes
RCRA hazardous wastes classified as D003 are hazardous because of the
characteristic of reactivity Paraphrasing 40 CFR 261.23, a waste is reactive
if it can be classified as: (1) unstable and readily undergoes violent
changes without detonating, (2) a waste that reacts violently with water, (3)
a potentially explosive mixture with water, (4) a waste that generates a toxic
gas when mixed with water, (5) a cyanide- or sulfide-bearing waste which under
certain conditions can generate toxic gases, (6) a waste capable of detonation
*
or explosive reaction if it is subjected to a strong initiating source or if
heated under confinement, (7) a waste readily capable of detonation or
explosive decomposition or reaction at standard temperature and pressure, or
(8) a Department of Transportation (DOT) forbidden explosive Class A
explosive, or a Class B explosive.
For D003 wastes, EPA has identified five treatability groups: (1)
reactive cyanides, (2) explosives, (3) water reactives, (4) reactive sulfides,
and (5) other reactives. These waste volumes surface-disposed and deepwell-
injected are presented in Tables 3-4 through 3-6. The TSDR survey did not
distinguish explosives, water reactives, and other reactives. Therefore,
these three categories have been grouped together in Table 3-6 for the purpose
of the capacity analysis. Several mixed D003 waste streams were reported in
the data set. EPA has identified that additional treatment will be required
after the BOAT treatment to meet all of the applicable treatment standards for
these waste streams.
For D003 reactive cyanides, EPA is promulgating concentration standards
based on alkaline chlorination, wet-air oxidation, or electrolytic-oxidation
for both wastewaters and nonwastewaters. Although reactive cyanides account
for the majority of the quantity of D003 generated, EPA believes that these
wastes are already restricted from landfills by existing regulations (40 CFR
Part 264.312, 265.312). Consequently. EPA has identified that sufficient
capacity exists for the volumes of surface-disposed D003 cyanide reactive
wastes and is not granting a national capacity variance for them.
For D003 explosive, water-reactive, and other reactive wastes, EPA is
promulgating deactivation as the method of treatment. For the capacity
3-20
-------
analysis, chemical oxidation followed by chrome reduction and chemical
precipitation was assumed to be an equivalent technology D003 explosive
wastes are already subject to special requirements prior to land disposal bv
existing regulations, and are burned and/or detonated openly EPA has
identified that adequate capacity does exist for the surface-disposed D003
explosive, water-reactive, and other reactive wastes. Therefore, EPA is not
granting a national capacity variance for these wastes being surface-disposed
For D003 reactive sulfides, EPA is promulgating deactivation as a method
of treatment, which includes chemical oxidation. EPA believes sufficient
capacity exists for the volume of surface-disposed D003 sulfide wastes and is
not granting a national capacity variance for them.
EPA has found that adequate alternative treatment capacity is not
available for D003 reactive cyanides, sulfides, and D003 explosives and
reactives (including both water reactives and other reactives) being deepwell-
injected. For D003 reactive sulfides, D003 explosives, D003 water reactives,
and D003 other reactives, EPA is promulgating deactivation as the method of
treatment. For the capacity analysis, EPA assigned all volumes to chemical
oxidation followed by chemical precipitation. As indicated in Appendix VI,
EPA has identified other technologies for treating these wastes. The
aggregate capacity of the additional technologies is still insufficient for
treating these D003 wastes. EPA is therefore granting a two-year capacity
variance for these wastes being deepwell-injected. In the proposed rule, EPA
proposed to grant a capacity variance for deepwell-injected D003 wastewaters.
During the public comment period, several commenters stated that D003
nonwastewaters were also injected. EPA has reevaluated the analysis for D003
wastes and agrees, and is therefore granting a national capacity variance for
deepwell-injected D003 wastewaters and nonwastewaters.

3.1.4 EP Toxic Pesticides D012-D017
EPA grouped these waste codes together because they exhibit the
characteristic of EP toxicity for constituents that are (or have been)
primarily used as pesticides.
D012 and D015
RCRA hazardous wastes classified as D012 and D015 are hazardous because
of the characteristic of EP toxicity for endrin and toxaphene, respectively
Endrin and toxaphene are halogenated pesticides that have the structural
classification known as chlorinated norbornane and nonbornene derivatives
For the wastewater forms of these wastes, EPA is promulgating incineration or
biological treatment as methods of treatment. For nonwastewaters, EPA is
promulgating concentration standards based on incineration.
As shown in Tables 3-7 and 3-10, all of the surface-disposed and
deepwell-injected D012 and D015 wastes identified from the data set as
requiring alternative treatment have been assigned to the BDAT technology
based on the physical form of the waste and whether it was a wastewater or
nonwastewater
Based on the data set, EPA had identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed and deepwell-injected D012 and D015
wastes requiring alternative treatment. Therefore, EPA is not granting a
national capacity variance for these deepwell-injected and surface-disposed
wastes.
D013
RCRA hazardous wastes classified as D013 are hazardous because of the
characteristic of EP toxicity for lindane. For wastewaters, EPA is
promulgating incineration or carbon adsorption as methods of treatment. For
nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on
incineration. As shown in Table 3-8, the surface-disposed and the deepwell
injected D013 wastes identified from the data set. as requiring alternative

-------
treatment have been assigned to the BOAT based on the physical form of the
waste .
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed and deepwell-injected D013 wastes
requiring alternative treatment. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national
capacity variance for either deepwell-injected or surface-disposed D013
wastes
D014
RCRA hazardous wastes classified as D014 are hazardous because of the
characteristic of EP toxicity for methoxychlor. Methoxychlor is a halogenated
pesticide classified as a chlorinated diphenyl compound. For this waste, EPA
is promulgating incineration or wet-air oxidation as methods of treatment for
wastewaters, and concentration standards based on incineration for
nonwastewaters.
As shown in Table 3-9, all of the surface-disposed and deepwell-injected
D014 wastes identified from the data set as requiring alternative treatment
have been assigned to the BOAT technology based on the physical form of the
waste and whether the waste was a wastewater or nonwastewater.
Based on the data set, EPA had identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed and deepwell-injected D014 wastes
requiring alternative treatment. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national
capacity variance for this waste.
D016 and D017
RCRA hazardous wastes D016 and D017 are classified as chlorophenoxy-
carboxylic acids. D016 and D017 are hazardous because, of the characteristic
of EP toxicity for 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 2,4,5-
trichlorophenoxypropionic acid (2,4,5-TP), respectively.
3-26
-------
For wascewacers, EPA is promulgating incineration or chemical oxidation
as methods of treatment. For nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating
concentration standards based on incineration.
As shown in Tables 3-11 and 3-12, all of the surface-disposed and
deepwell- injected D016 and D017 wastes identified from the data set as
requiring alternative treatment have been assigned to one of the BOAT
technologies based on the physical form of the waste and whether the waste was
a wastewater or nonwastewater
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed and deepwell-injected D016 and D017
wastes requiring alternative treatment. Therefore, EPA is not granting a
national capacity variance for these wastes.

3.2 Metal Wastes
This group includes arsenic, barium, cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury,
selenium, silver, thallium, and vanadium wastes.
3.2.1 Arsenic Wastes
D004, K031, K084, K101, K102, P010, P011, P012 P036 P038 and
U136
RCRA hazardous wastes D004 (EP toxic for arsenic), K031 (by-product salts
generated in the production of MSMA and cacodylic acid), K084 (wastewater
treatment sludges generated during the production of veterinary
Pharmaceuticals from arsenic or organo-arsenic compounds), K101 (distillation
tar residues from the distillation of aniline-based compounds in the
production of veterinary Pharmaceuticals from arsenic or organo-arsenic
compounds), K102 (residues from the use of activated carbon for decolorization
in the production of veterinary pharmaceuticals from arsenic or organo-arsenic
compounds), P010 (arsenic acid), P011 (arsenic (V) oxide), P012 (arsenic (III)
oxide), P036 (dichlorophenyl-arsine), P038 (diethylarsine), and U136
(cacodylic acid) are hazardous wastes containing arsenic. The P wastes are
listed as hazardous for acute toxicity The U wastes are listed as hazardous
for toxicity Concentration standards were previously set for K101 and K102
wastes in the First Third final rule. At that time, BOAT was incineration for
organic nonwastewaters and stabilization for metallic nonwastewaters For
wastewaters, the BDAT was chemical precipitation and filtration. No standards
were set for arsenic content. In today's rule, EPA is promulgating
concentration standards for all arsenic nonwastewaters based on the
performance of vitrification. (See preamble for more detail on the standards
and capacity analysis for arsenic nonwastewaters.) For wastewaters, EPA is
promulgating concentration standards based on chemical precipitation; for K101
and K102 , new concentration standards are being promulgated for this
technology. EPA has evidence that the vitrification standard for arsenic will
effectively treat both the organics and metals in the nonwastewater forms of
K101 and K102 wastes.
As shown in Table 3-13 through and 3-18, all of the arsenic wastes
identified in the data set as requiring alternative treatment have been
3-34
-------
assigned no the BOAT based on the physical form of the wastes. Treatment of
these wastes does not normally require additional treatment (e.g., chemical
oxidation followed by chemical precipitation) However, some arsenic
wastewaters and nonwastewaters were found to be mixed with other wastes. For
these wastes, EPA has identified that additional treatment steps are required
in order to meet all of the applicable treatment standards
EPA's analysis of the data set has revealed insufficient alternative
treatment capacity for surface-disposed D004, K031, K084, P010, P011, and P012
nonwastewaters. Therefore, EPA is granting a national capacity variance for
the nonwastewater forms of these wastes. For D004, K031, K084, P010, P011,
and P012 wastewaters, both deepwell-injected and surface-disposed, sufficient
alternative treatment capacity exists, and therefore, EPA is not granting a
national capacity variance for the wastewater forms of these wastes.
Data indicate that K101, K102, P036, P038, and U136 wastes are not being
land disposed but are being generated. Because no capacity exists for the
proposed technology standard of vitrification, EPA is granting K101, K102,
P036. P038, and U136 nonwastewaters a national capacity variance. For
wastewaters, adequate alternative treatment capacity exists, and therefore,
EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for the wastewater forms of
these wastes.

322 Barium Wastes D005 and P013
RCRA hazardous wastes classified as D005 are hazardous because of the
characteristic of EP toxicity for barium. RCRA hazardous waste P013 (barium
cyanide) is listed as hazardous for acute toxicity EPA is promulgating
concentration standards based on chemical precipitation for D005 and P013
wastewaters. For D005 and P013 nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating
concentration standards based on stabilization. For barium nonwastewaters
with high levels of organics, EPA is requiring that these wastes be
incinerated prior to stabilization. Cyanide treatment standards based on
alkaline chlorination for P013 wastewaters and electrolytic oxidation followed
by alkaline chlorination for P013 nonwastewaters were originally set in the
Second Third final rule.
As shown in Table 3-19, most D005 barium wastes requiring alternative
treatment have been assigned to their BOAT based on the physical form of the
waste and whether the waste was a wastewater or nonwastewater. However, D005
wastewaters and nonwastewaters were found to be mixed with other wastes. For
these wastes, EPA has identified that additional treatment steps will be
required in order to meet all applicable treatment standards.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected or surface-
disposed volumes of P013 requiring alternative treatment capacity. Therefore,
EPA is not granting capacity a variance for these wastes.
EPA's analysis indicated that sufficient alternative treatment capacity
exists for D005 deepwell-injected and surface-disposed wastewaters and
nonwastewaters and therefore is not granting a capacity variance for these
wastes.

j.2.3 Cadmium Wastes D006
RCRA hazardous wastes classified as D006 are hazardous because of the
characteristic of EP toxicity for cadmium. EPA is grouping all D006 wastes
into one of three treatability groups: cadmium-containing batteries,
wastewaters, or nonwastewaters. EPA is promulgating thermal recovery as the
method of treatment for cadmium batteries, and concentration standards based
on chemical precipitation for cadmium wastewaters. For D006 nonwastewaters,
EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on stabilization or metal
recovery.
As shown in Table 3-20 and 3-21, the D006 cadmium wastes identified from
the data set as requiring alternative treatment have been assigned to various
treatment technologies. Although D006 wastes will undergo the assigned BOAT
method of treatment, EPA believes that many mixed D006 waste streams will
require additional treatment in order to meet all of the applicable treatment
standards. For example, D006 wastewaters that also contain chromium-bearing
wastes will require chromium reduction in addition to chemical precipitation.
EPA has identified that sufficient capacity exists to treat the surface-
disposed and deepwell injected cadmium wastewaters and nonwastewaters.
Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for these wastes
EPA proposed to grant a national capacity variance for D006 cadmium batteries
in the proposed rule due to lack of identified recovery capacity Through
contacts made with facilities identified during the public comment period, EPA
has determined that sufficient capacity exists for D006 cadmium batteries
currently land disposed and, therefore, is not granting a national capacity
variance for D006 cadmium batteries.

3.2.4 Chromium Wastes D007 and U032
RCRA hazardous wastes classified as D007 are hazardous because of the
characteristic of EP toxicity for chromium. RCRA hazardous waste U032
(calcium chromate) is listed as hazardous for toxicity For D007 and U032
wastewaters, EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on chromium
reduction followed by chemical precipitation. For D007 and U032
nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on
stabilization.
As shown in Tables 3-22 and 3-23, the D007 and U032 wastes identified
from the data set as requiring alternative treatment have been assigned to
their BDATs. However, EPA believes that many mixed D007 waste streams will
require additional treatment in order to meet all of the applicable treatment
standards. For example, D007 waste streams that also contain organics will
require incineration followed by stabilization of the incinerator ash and
scrubber water treatment sludge.
Based on the analysis of the data set, EPA has identified that adequate
treatment capacity exists for the volume of surface-disposed D007 wastewaters
and nonwastewaters, and deepwell-injected and surface-disposed U032
wastewaters and nonwastewaters. Therefore, EPA is not granting capacity
variances for these wastes. However, EPA does not believe that adequate
treatment capacity exists for the volume of deepwell-injected D007 wastes
requiring alternative treatment. Therefore, EPA is granting a two-year
capacity variance for deepwell-injected D007 wastes. In the proposed rule,
EPA proposed to grant deepwell-injected D007 wastewaters a national capacity
variance. During the public comment period, several commenters stated that
D007 nonwastewaters were also being injected. EPA has reevaluated the
analysis for D007 wastes and agrees, and is therefore granting a national
capacity variance for deepwell-injected D007 wastewaters and nonwastewaters

3.2.5 Lead Wastes D008, P110, U144, U145, U146, K069, and K100
RCRA hazardous wastes classified as D008 are hazardous because of the
characteristic of EP toxicity for lead. RCRA hazardous waste P110 (tetraethyl
lead) is listed as hazardous for acute toxicity RCRA hazardous wastes U144
(lead acetate), U145 (lead phosphate), and U146 (lead subacetate) are listed
as hazardous for toxicity
For D008 wastes, EPA is promulgating standards for three categories:
nonwastewaters, wastewaters, lead-acid batteries. For D008 nonwastewater lead
wastes, EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on stabilization or
thermal recovery For D008 nonwastewaters containing significant
concentrations of organics, EPA is requiring that these wastes be incinerated
prior to stabilization. For D008 wastewaters, EPA is promulgating
concentration standards based on chemical precipitation. EPA believes
sufficient capacity exists for surface-disposed D008 wastes. Therefore, EPA
is not granting a national capacity variance for D008 wastewaters and
nonwastewaters, with the exceptions noted below.
EPA is promulgating thermal recovery as the method of treatment for lead-
acid batteries. Secondary lead smelters have stated that they store these
wastes in piles prior to recovery EPA has indicated in a previous rulemaking
that the shells surrounding lead-acid batteries are considered to be storage
containers (see 47 FR 12318 and 40 CFR 264 314(f)(3)). Therefore, to the
extent that lead-acid battery storage meets all the requirements of the LDR
storage prohibitions at 40 CFR 268.50, such storage is permissible.
In the proposed rule, EPA solicited comments on the management of D008
lead acid batteries at secondary smelters. EPA also indicated that storage of
battery parts in waste piles prior to smelting is a form of land disposal, and
as such these staging areas are subject to the statutory prohibitions. During
the public comment period, EPA received several comments from the secondary
lead smelting industry regarding the storage of battery parts prior to
smelting. Several commenters expressed concern that EPA's determination that
staging piles are a form of land-disposal could force them to close or operate
out of compliance while staging piles are modified to meet requirements for
hazardous waste storage. As a result of these comments, EPA contacted several
3-50
-------
secondary smelters to assess the potential capacity impact of required staging
area reconstruction. Because of the large volume of batteries currently
processed at smelting facilities whose continued storage operation remains in
question, EPA is granting a two-year national capacity variance to D008 lead
ac id batteries.
For P110, U144 , U145, and U146, EPA is promulgating treatment standards
based on chemical oxidation followed by chemical precipitation for wastewaters
and stabilization for nonwastewaters. For P100, U144, U145, and U146
nonwastewaters containing significant concentrations of organics, EPA is
requiring incineration prior to stabilization. U144 and U146 were originally
addressed in the Second Third final rule but treatment standards for these
wastes were not set. These wastes therefore were subject to the soft hammer
requirements.
As shown in Tables 3-24 through 3-28, all of the deepwell-injected and
surface-disposed wastewaters and nonwastewaters have been assigned to the BDAT
based on the physical form of the waste. EPA has identified that several
mixed D008 (low lead concentration) and U144 mixed waste streams will require
additional treatment in order to meet all the applicable treatment standards.
For example, U144 waste streams that also contain mercury will require mercury
retorting.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected volumes nor
surface-disposed volumes of P110 or U145 wastes. EPA is therefore not
granting a capacity variance for these wastes.
Based on analysis the data set, EPA has identified that sufficient
capacity exists for deepwell-injected and surface-disposed D008, U144, and
L'1^6 wastes volumes. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity
variance for these wastes.
Secondary Lead Smelting Wastes K069
RCRA hazardous waste K069 (emission control dust/sludge from secondary
lead smelting) is hazardous waste from secondary lead smelting. In the First
Third final rule, EPA proposed, a "No Land Disposal Based on Recycling"
3-51
-------
standard for K069 non-calcium sulfate nonwastewaters, identifying that this
waste could be totally recycled and therefore no longer land disposed. In
today's rule, EPA is revoking this standard and replace it with recycling as a
method of treatment. In addition, EPA is promulgating a concentration
standard based on stabilization for K069 calcium sulfate nonwastewaters, and
chemical precipitation for all K069 wastewaters.
As shown in Table 3-26, analysis of the data set revealed a small volume
of surface-disposed K069 wastes requiring alternative treatment capacity.
However, EPA believes there is sufficient capacity to treat these small
volumes of waste. There are no reported volumes of deepwell-disposed K069
wastes requiring alternative treatment capacity Therefore, EPA is not
granting a national capacity variance for K069 wastes.
Secondary Lead Smelting Wastes K100
RCPxA hazardous waste K100 (waste leaching solution from acid leaching of
emission control dust/sludge from secondary lead smelting) are hazardous
wastes from secondary lead smelting. Treatment standards for K100 wastes were
originally scheduled to be promulgated as part of the Third Third rulemaking.
However, a treatment standard of "No Land Disposal Based on No Generation" for
K100 nonwastewaters was promulgated in the First Third final rule and
subsequently revised in the Second Third final rule to be applicable only to
"Nonwastewater forms of these wastes generated by the process described in the
listing description and disposed after August 17, 1988, and not generated in
Che course of treating wastewater forms of these wastes [Based on Non
Generation]"
Today, EPA is revoking the "No Land Disposal Based on No Generation"
standard for nonwastewaters and replacing it with a concentration standard
based on stabilization. In addition, EPA is today promulgating a
concentration based standard for wastewaters based on chemical precipitation.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected or surface-
disposed volumes of K100 wastes requiring alternative treatment capacity for
this rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance
for these wastes.

3.2.6 Mercury Wastes D009, K071, K106, P065, P092, and U151
These six wastes are grouped together because they contain mercury as the
primary hazardous constituent. EPA is grouping these wastes together in order
to simplify the explanation of the chemistry of mercury and the operational
treatment principles of technologies for treating the related mercury wastes.
RCRA hazardous wastes classified as D009 are hazardous because of the
characteristic of EP toxicity for mercury. R.C'RA hazardous wastes K071 (brine
purification muds from the mercury cell process in chlorine production, where
separately prepurified brine is not used), K106 (wastewater treatment sludges
from the mercury cell process in chlorine production), P065 (mercury
fulminate), P092 (phenylmercury acetate), and U151 (mercury) are other
mercury-containing wastes listed as hazardous because of the presence of
mercury.
Treatment standards for K071 nonwastewaters were originally promulgated
in the First Third rule. In the proposed Third Third rule, EPA proposed to
revise the standards for K071 nonwastewaters with a high mercury content. For
this high mercury subcategory, EPA proposed roasting or retorting as methods
of treatment. For the final rule, EPA is not adopting the proposed revisions
to K071 wastes, leaving the promulgated First Third BOAT treatment standards
unchanged.
EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on chemical
precipitation for D009, K106. and U151 wastewaters. For P065 and P092
wastewaters, EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on chemical
oxidation followed by chemical precipitation.
EPA is promulgating two categories for nonwastewaters: (1) low mercurv
and (2) high mercury. For the low mercury subcategory, EPA is promulga: ir-.t
concentration standards based on acid leaching and chemical precipitation :or
D009, K106, P065, and P092, and U151 nonwastewaters; for the high m-ercurv
subcategory, EPA is promulgating roasting or retorting as methods of crear-nt--:
for D009. K106. and U151. For P065 and P092 nonwastewaters high mercur-
subcategory, EPA is promulgating incineration followed by roasting or
retorting as methods of treatment.
3-58
-------
Because current data do not provide sufficient information on the volume
of nonwastewaters that contain high and low concentrations of mercury, EPA
assigned all volumes to the high category. Consequently, no volumes of wastes
were assigned to acid leaching followed by chemical precipitation. However,
no commercial acid leaching followed by chemical precipitation capacity
exists. Therefore EPA is granting all surface-disposed low concentration
mercury wastes a two-year national capacity variance.
EPA identified several large volumes of P and U coded wastes reported as
deepwell-injected in the TSDR Survey. EPA contacted the firms reporting these
large streams to further characterize the generation and current management of
these large volumes. Specifically, EPA wanted to determine if these large
streams were actually generated as small volumes of hazardous wastes and
subsequently mixed with large volumes of other wastes.
A deepwell injected volume of 75 million gallons per year containing U151
was reported in the TSDR Survey. Follow-up conversations with the facility
reporting this waste stream indicated that the stream was a mixture containing
a small unknown fraction of U151. Based on this information, EPA assumed that
100,000 gallons per year was a reasonable estimate of the volume of U151
generated prior to mixing with other wastes. Because the land disposal
restrictions apply to wastes at the point of generation, EPA used the 100.000
gallon per year estimate as the required alternative treatment capacity for
the U151 contained in this mixed waste stream. A discussion on this
methodology is included in section 3.0
As shown in Tables 3-29 through 3-32, most of the these wastes identified
from the data set as requiring alternative treatment were assigned to their
BOAT based on the physical form of the waste and whether the waste was a
wastewater or nonwastewater. Several mixed waste streams were assigned to
other technologies because of the presence of other wastes. For example,
several D009 waste streams that also contained arsenic-bearing wastes were
assigned to vitrification. EPA believes that for these waste streams,
vitrification will be capable of meeting all of the applicable treatment
standards
3-59
-------
Based on analysis of the data set, EPA has identified that adequate
treatment capacity exists for the volume of surface-disposed and
deepwell-injected D009. K106, P092, and U151 wastewaters requiring alternative
treatment. EPA has identified a small amount of commercial mercury retorting
capacity (16,000 gallons). There is insufficient mercury retorting capacity
for D009, K106, and U151 nonwastewaters. Due to the sporadic generation rate
of P wastes from year to year and the small amount of available commercial
mercury retorting capacity, EPA is granting all high mercury nonwastewaters a
two-year national capacity variance. EPA has also determined that there is
insufficient commercial capacity for acid leaching followed by chemical
precipitation; therefore, EPA is granting low mercury D009, K106, P065, P092,
and U151 nonwastewaters a national capacity variance.

327 Selenium Wastes
D010, P103, U204, U205
RCRA hazardous wastes D010 (EP toxic for selenium), P103 (selenourea),
P114 (thallium selenite), U204 (selenious acid), and U205 (selenium disulfide)
are hazardous wastes containing selenium. The P wastes are listed as
hazardous for acute toxicity The U wastes are listed as hazardous for
toxicity
For selenium nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating concentration standards
based on stabilization. For selenium wastewaters, EPA is promulgating
concentration standards based on chemical precipitation. As shown in Table 3-
34, all D010 wastes identified in the data set as requiring alternative
treatment have been assigned to the BOAT based on the physical form of the
waste. The BDAT for these wastes does not normally require treatment steps
(e.g., chemical oxidation followed by chemical precipitation). However, D010
wastewaters and nonwastewaters were found to be mixed with other wastes For
these wastes, EPA has identified that additional treatment steps are required
in order to meet all applicable treatment standards.
In the proposed rule, EPA proposed to grant all selenium nonwastewaters a
national capacity variance because of a lack of vitrification treatment
capacity In tr final rule, EPA has determined that selenium nonwastewaters
may reach the treatment standards through stabilization. Because adequate
stabilization capacity exists, EPA is not granting D010 and U204
nonwastewaters a national capacity variance. EPA's analysis of the data set
has also revealed that adequate treatment capacity exists for D010 and U204
wastewaters (Tables 3-33 and 3-34). Therefore, EPA is not granting these
selenium wastewaters a national capacity variance.
Data indicate that P103, P114, and U205 wastes are being generated but
are not being land disposed. Therefore, EPA is not granting these selenium
wastewaters and nonwastewaters a national capacity variance.

3.2.8 Silver Wastes D011, P099, and P104
EPA has identified three hazardous wastes that potentially contain high
levels of silver These include D011 (EP Toxic for silver), P099 (potassium
silver cyanide), and P104 (silver cyanide) Treatment standards for P099 and
P104 nonwastewaters were promulgated in the Second Third final rule (54 FR
26614 (June 23, 1989)) Treatment standards for silver in P099 and P104
wastes were not promulgated due to the lack of treatment data. Today, EPA is
promulgating treatment standards for silver in all D011, P099, and P104
wastes.
For P099 and P104 wastewaters, EPA is promulgating concentration
standards based on chemical precipitation. For D011, EPA is promulgating
concentration standards based on chemical precipitation for wastewaters, and
recovery or stabilization for nonwastewaters.
As shown in Table 3-35, D011 wastes identified from the data set as
requiring alternative treatment have been assigned to various treatment
technologies. D011 wastes that were hazardous only due to the presence of
silver were assigned to a BOAT treatment based on whether the waste was a
wastewater or jionwastewater For D011 contaminated with organics,
incineration is required as a pretreatment step. Although D011 wastes must
undergo the assigned BDAT method of treatment, EPA has identified that many
D011 waste streams contain other types of wastes that will require additional
treatment in order to meet all of the applicable treatment standards.
Analysis of the data set indicated that no deepwell-injected volumes or
surface-disposed volumes of P099 and P104 wastes require alternative treatmer.:
capacity Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for
these wastes.
Based on analysis of the data set, EPA has identified that adequate
treatment capacity exists for the surface-disposed and deepwell-injected j< .1
waste requiring alternative treatment. Therefore, EPA is not granting a
national capacity variance for these wastes.

3.2.9 Thallium Wastes P113, P114, P115, U214, U215. U216. andU217
RCRA hazardous wastes P113 (thallic oxide), P114 (thallium selenite).
P115 (thallium sulfate), U214 (thallium (I) acetate), U215 (thallium (I)
carbonate), U216 (thallium (I) chloride), and U217 (thallium (I) nitrate) are
thallium wastes that are listed for toxicity or as being acutely toxic. P113,
P114, U214, U215, U216, and U217 are Second Third wastes for which treatment
standards were not set and therefore have been subject to the soft hammer
requirements. EPA is promulgating wastewater and nonwastewater treatment
standards for P113, P114, P115, U214, U215, U216, and U217 thallium wastes.
Thallium wastes are produced by one manufacturer in small volumes. Most of
the thallium compounds are used in research, in the electrical industry for
the production of thallium-activated sodium iodide crystals, in the glass
industry as low-melting alloys, and as catalysts in the organic chemical
industry
EPA has identified the BDAT for all thallium wastewaters to be numerical
standards based on chemical precipitation. For P113, P115, U214, U215, U216,
and U217 nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating thermal recovery or stabilization
as methods of treatment. For P114 nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating
concentration standards based on recovery, stabilization, and vitrification.
Based on analysis of the data set, EPA has identified that there is
adequate alternative treatment capacity for surface-disposed P115, U214, and
U217 thallium wastes. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity
variance for P115, U214, and U217 wastes (Tables 3-36, 3-37, and 3-38)
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected or surface-
disposed volumes of P113, P114, U215, and U216 wastes requiring alternative
treatment capacity for this rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not granting a
national capacity variance for these wastes.

3.2.10 Vanadium Wastes P119 and P120
Vanadium compounds are used primarily as alloying materials in iron and
steel production or as catalysts in several manufacturing processes such as
adipic acid, sulfuric acid, synthetic rubber, and crude oil. Most of the
vanadium produced in the United States is produced from mined ores or recovery
processes. Vanadium is recovered from mining ores by calcining and leaching
of the calcined material. Recovery processes usually recover the vanadium in
its pentoxide state. Vanadium is recovered in uranium production via
liquid/liquid extraction, and the product is usually in the form of ammonium
metavanadate. Therefore, EPA believes that these wastes compromise one
treatability group because they are produced from the same mined ores and are
used as catalysts in similar industries. Vanadium wastes can be generated as
a fly ash or slag from the iron and steel industries, or as a spent catalyst
from the chemical manufacturing process. Based on information from the
generators survey, these wastes could be classified as inorganic solids,
organic liquids, or used bags or drums. For P119 and P120 nonwastewaters, EPA
is promulgating stabilization as the method of treatment. For wastewaters,
EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on chemical precipitation.
The P119 and P120 waste volumes requiring alternative treatment are shown
in Tables 3-39 and 3-40, along with the associated treatment technology
Based on analysis of the data set, EPA has identified that there is
adequate treatment capacity for P119 and P120 surface-disposed nonwastewaters
No deepwell-injected volumes of these wastes were reported in the data set.
Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for P119 and P120
wastewaters and nonwastewaters.

F002, or F004; and still bottoms from the recovery of these spent solvents and
spent solvent mixtures) are hazardous spent solvents.
Treatment standards for F002 and F005 were promulgated in the Solvents
and Dioxins rule. In February 1986, EPA amended the listing of F002 and F005
to include four new constituents: 1,1,2 -trichloroethane, benzene, 2-
ethoxyethanol, and 2-nitropropane (51 FR 6737) However, no treatment
standards were promulgated for these new constituents since no analytical
methods could satisfactorily analyze 2-ethoxyethanol and 2-nitropropane in
complex waste matrices at that time.
Today, EPA is revising the treatment standards for F002 and F005 to
account for these four newly listed F002 and F005 constituents. Wastewater
concentration standards for F002 containing 1,1,2-Trichloroethane and F005
containing benzene are based on: biological treatment, or steam stripping, or
carbon adsorption, or liquid extraction. For nonwastewaters containing either
of the two constituents, concentration standards are based on incineration.
for F005 containing 2-Ethoxyethanol, EPA is promulgating incineration as the
method of treatment for nonwastewaters, and incineration or biodegradation as
methods of treatment for wastewaters. For F005 wastewaters containing 2-
3-77
-------
nitropropane, EPA is promulgating incineration, or wet-air oxidation followed
by carbon adsorption, or chemical oxidation followed by carbon adsorption as
methods of treatment. For F005 nbnwastewaters containing 2-nitropropane, EPA
is requiring incineration as the method of treatment.
For the Solvent and Dioxins final rule, EPA analyzed all F002 and F005
wastes requiring alternative treatment capacity. Because the technologies are
the same as those required for the Solvent and Dioxins, EPA is not including
required capacity volumes in the capacity analysis for this proposed rule.
Because EPA has identified that sufficient capacity exists to treat these
wastes, EPA is not granting F002 and F005 wastewaters and nonwastewaters a
national capacity variance.

33.2 F006 and F019
RCRA hazardous waste F006 is wastewater treatment sludges from certain
electroplating operations. F006 is listed as hazardous because of the
presence of cadmium, hexavalent chromium, nickel, and cyanides (complexed)
In the land disposal restrictions for the First Third rule (53 FR 31138). EPA
set treatment standards for the metals in F006 nonwastewaters based on
stabilization; in the Second Third rule (54 FR 26609), EPA set treatment
standards for amenable and total cyanides in F006 nonwastewaters based on
alkaline chlorination followed by chemical precipitation, settling and
filtration.
For the Third Third final rule, EPA is promulgating metals and cyanide
treatment standards for F006 wastewaters EPA is promulgating concentration
standards based on alkaline chlorination for the amenable and total cyanides,
and chemical reduction followed by chemical precipitation for the four metal
standards. Because F006 is a broadly defined waste code, further distinction
was used to assign F006 wastewaters to alternative treatment capacity F006
wastewaters that contain chromium and not cyanides were assigned to chromium
reduction followed by chemical precipitation. Wastewaters resulting from
plating operations other than chromium plating were assigned in one of two
ways, depending on the original wastewater treatment process that produced the
F006 residual wastewater Those F006 wastewaters produced from processes that
included cyanide treatment were assigned to chemical precipitation alone, and
F006 wastewaters that were not previously treated for cyanides were assigned
to alkaline chlorination followed by chemical precipitation. Residuals from
the BDAT treatment of F006 wastewaters will require additional treatment in
order to meet the F006 nonwastewater standards previously promulgated.
As shown in Tables 3-41 through 3-43, both surface-disposed and deepwell-
injected F006 wastewaters were identified from the data set as requiring
alternative treatment. For F006 wastewaters for which it could not be
determined whether the waste contained cyanides, as a worst case scenario, EPA
assumed that these waste streams would require cyanide treatment. The
non-cyanide F006 wastewaters requiring alternative treatment were also
distinguished between those containing chromium and those not containing
chromium. Several waste streams will require chromium reduction in addition
3-79
-------
to chemical precipitation. All of the F006 wastewaters were assigned to the
appropriate BDAT based on whether cyanide or chromium were part of the waste
composition.
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed and deepwell-injected F006
wastewaters requiring alternative treatment. Therefore, EPA is not granting a
national capacity variance for these wastes.
RCRA hazardous wastes classified as F019 consist of wastes generated from
the chemical conversion coating of aluminum. F019 wastes are listed as
hazardous because of the presence of hexavalent chromium and cyanides
(complexed). Treatment standards for F019 were originally scheduled to be
promulgated in the First Third rule; because EPA did not set standards by the
statutory deadline, these wastes have been subject to the "soft hammer"
provisions. Todav EPA is promulgating concentration-based treatment standards
for F019 wastes. EPA has identified the BDAT technologies for F019
wastewaters to be based on alkaline chlorination for cyanides; chromium
reduction followed by chemical precipitation for metals; and, for
nonwastewaters, alkaline chlorination for cyanides and stabilization for the
metals. Some F019 waste streams have been identified which also contain
organic wastes. For these wastes, EPA has identified that incineration
followed by chromium reduction of the scrubber water and stabilization of the
ash and scrubber water treatment residues will meet the BDAT treatment
standards established for F019
As shown in Table 3-44, F019 wastewaters and nonwastewaters requiring
alternative treatment include both deepwell-injected and surface-disposed
wastes. They have been assigned to one of the BDAT technologies as described
above.
Based on the data set, EPA has determined that adequate alternative
treatment capacity exists for the surface-disposed and deepwell-injected
volumes of F019 wastewaters and nonwastewaters requiring alternative treatment
capacity Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for
these surface-disposed and deepwell-injected F019 wastes.

3.3 3 F024
Concentration-based treatment standards for organics in F024 (Chlorinated
aliphatic hydrocarbon production wastes) wastewaters and nonwastewaters were
promulgated in the Second Third rule. The treatment standards were based on
the performance of rotary kiln incineration for organic constituents, and
chemical precipitation for metal constituents in wastewaters. Today, EPA is
revising certain of these standards and is promulgating concentration
standards based on stabilization for metal constituents in F024
nonwastewaters. EPA is providing the option of incineration as a treatmnt
method for this waste in order to remove obstacles to acceptance, previously
created by the explicit standard for dioxins and furans.
As shown in Table 3-45, all of the surface-disposed F024 nonwastewaters
identified from the data set as requiring alternative treatment for this
rulemaking have been assigned to stabilization. This volume is based on the
volume identified requiring incineration for the Second Third final rule
capacity analysis. The volumes of F024 requiring incineration were accounted
for in the capacity analysis for the Second Third rule. For the capacity
analysis for the Third Third rule, F024 residual volumes were assigned to
stabilization.
EPA has identified that adequate treatment capacity exists for the
surface-disposed F024 nonwastewaters requiring alternative treatment.
Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for these wastes.
Further analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected volumes of
F024 nonwastewaters requiring alternative treatment capacity for this
rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for
these deepwell-injected wastes.

3.34 F025
F025 (condensed light ends, spent filters and filter aids, and spent
desiccant wastes from the production of certain chlorinated aliphatics) is a
newly listed RCRA waste. Most generators already treat F025 as if it were
hazardous, and some facilities commingle F024 and F025. Today, EPA is
promulgating concentration-based treatment standards for all categories of
F025 wastewaters and nonwastewaters based on incineration.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected or surface-
disposed volumes of F025 requiring alternative treatment capacity for this
rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for
these wastes, and is restricting land disposal on June 11, 1990.
3-87
-------
33.5 K001 and U051
RCRA hazardous waste U051 (cresote) is a polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbon
listed as hazardous for toxicity. K001 is bottom sediment sludge from the
treatment of wastewaters from wood preserving processes that use creosote
and/or pentachlorophenol. EPA is promulgating revisions to the concentration-
based treatment standards for K001 organics due to a mathematical error that
was made in the calculation of the original standards in the First Third rule.
Since the treatment standards for U051 wastewaters and nonwastewaters are
based on a transfer of the performance of K001, the concentration-based
standards for U051 also reflect this change. For the organics in K001 and
U051 wastewaters and nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating concentration
standards based on incineration. EPA is also finalizing concentration
standards for lead in K001 and U051 based on stabilization for nonwastewaters
and chemical precipitation for wastewaters.
As shown in Table 3-46, the U051 wastes requiring alternative treatment
are surface-disposed nonwastewaters. Most of these wastes have been assigned
to the appropriate technology for nonwastewaters based on the physical form of
the waste.
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed U051 wastes requiring alternative
treatment. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for
this waste. In addition, since no deepwell-injected U051 waste volumes have
been reported, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for these
wastes.
A small amount of U051 nonwastewaters was assigned to vitrification as i:
was part of a mixture. Although, EPA believes that no capacity is available
for vitrification, EPA is not granting a variance for U051 nonwastewaters
because this treatment is not necessary to meet the concentration-based
standards.

3.3.6 Waste from Pigment Production K002, K003, K004, K005, K006
K007, and K008
RCRA wastes K002, K003, K004, K005, K006, K007, and K008 are wastes
generated during the production of inorganic pigments. These wastes are
listed as hazardous because of the presence of hexavalent chromium and lead.
EPA promulgated treatment standards of "no land disposal based on no
generation" for K004 and K008 nonwastewaters during the First Third final
rule. EPA promulgated treatment standards of "no land disposal based on no
generation" for K005 and K007 nonwastewaters during the Second Third final
rule. In addition, for the Second Third final rule, EPA promulgated treatment
standards of "no land disposal based on total reuse/recycle" for K002, K003,
and K006. For the Third Third rule, however, EPA is promulgating revisions
for these treatment standards.
EPA is revoking the "no land disposal based on no generation" for K005
and K007 nonwastewaters, because a source wishing to manufacture these
pigments in the future would be forced to apply for a variance from the
treatment standard. EPA is also revoking the "no land disposal based on no
generation" for K004 and K008 nonwastewaters. The treatment standards for
K002, K003, and K006 based on total recycling using secondary lead smelting
have been revised because hazardous residuals that require further treatment
may be produced.
EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on chromium reduction
followed by chemical precipitation for K002, K003, K004. K006, and K008
wastewaters, and alkaline chlorination followed by chromium reduction followed
by chemical precipitation for K005 and K007 wastewaters. For nonwastewater
forms of these wastes, EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on
stabilization.
As shown in Tables 3-47 through 3-51, K002, K003, K004, K005, and K006
wastes were identified from the data set as requiring alternative treatment.
However, only K002 wastes were disposed of by deepwell-injection; the other
wastes are not currently deepwell-injected. All of these wastes were assigned
to one of the BOAT technologies as described above.

Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the deepwell-injected and surface-disposed K002, K003.
K004, K005, and K006 wastes requiring alternative treatment. Therefore, EPA
is not granting a national capacity variance for these wastes.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected or surface-
disposed volumes of K007 and K008 wastes requiring alternative treatment

3.3.7 Acrylonitrile Production Wastes K011, K013, and K014
RCRA hazardous wastes K011, K013, and K014 are waste streams generated
during the production of acrylonitrile. EPA promulgated treatment standards
based on incineration for K011, K013, and K014 nonwastewaters during the
Second Third final rule. Treatment standards for wastewaters were proposed
during the Second Third rule, but were not promulgated because the K011, K013,
and K014 wastewaters that were being disposed by deepwell-injection would not
meet the definition of wastewaters (these wastewaters have greater than 1
percent total organic carbon). EPA is now promulgating a new definition for
K011, K013, and K014 wastewaters (a total dissolved solid concentration of
less than 1 percent and a total organic concentration of greater than 5
percent) and has identified concentration standards for these wastewaters
based on wet-air oxidation.
The K011, K013, and K014 wastes that require alternative treatment are
shown in Tables 3-52 through 3-54, along with the BDAT identified for each.
As these tables show, all the K011, K013, and K014 wastewaters that require
alternative treatment are disposed of by deepwell-injection.
K011, K013, and K014 represent all of the underground injected hazardous
wastes addressed in today's rule that are best treated by wet-air oxidation.
As shown in Table III.B.2.(c), the less than 1 million gallons of available
capacity are inadequate to treat the quantity of K011, K013, and K014
wastewaters annually deepwell-injected requiring this type of treatment.
Therefore, EPA is granting a two- year national capacity variance to the
wastewater forms of K011, K013, and K014, prohibiting these wastes from
underground injection on May 8, 1992. Analysis of the data set revealed no
surface-disposed volumes of K011, K013, and K014 wastes requiring alternative
treatment capacity for this rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not granting a
national capacity variance for these surface-disposed wastes. In the proposed
Third Third rule, EPA solicited comment concerning the deepwell-inj ectior. of
K014 nonwastewaters. Several commenters responded stating that under the
wastewater/nonwastewater definition, K014 nonwastewaters are injected. E?A
has reviewed these comments and agrees, and is extending the capacity vanar.ce
for K014 wastes to include both wastewaters and nonwastewaters.

3.3.8 Benzyl Chloride Distillation Waste K015
In the First Third final rule, EPA promulgated a treatment standard of
"No Land Disposal Based on No Ash" for K015 (benzyl chloride distillation
waste) nonwastewaters. Concentration-based standards for K015 wastewaters
were also promulgated at that time. After promulgation, a facility generating
K015 nonwastewaters submitted information indicating that their K015 waste
generated an ash residue upon combustion. Therefore, EPA is revoking the "No
Land Disposal Based on No Ash" standard for the nonwastewater form of K015 and
is proposing numerical treatment standards for K015 nonwastewaters.
EPA is promulgating treatment standards for five organic and two metal
constituents for the K015 nonwastewaters based on incineration followed by
stabilization.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected and surface-
disposed volumes of K015 wastes requiring alternative treatment capacity for
this rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance
for these wastes.

3.3.9 K017 and K073
K017 is defined as the heavy ends (still bottoms) from the purification
column in the production of epichlorohydrin; K073 is chlorinated hydrocarbon
waste from the purification step of the diaphragm cell process using graphite
anodes in chlorine production. K017 and K073 were originally scheduled to be
promulgated as part of the First Third rulemaking, but EPA did not promulgate
standards at that time; therefore, land disposal of these wastes have been
subject to the "soft hammer" provisions. Concentration-based treatment
standards are being promulgated today for all wastewater and nonwastewater
forms of K017 and K073 based on incineration.
As shown in Tables 3-55 through 3-56, all of the surface-disposed K017
and K073 wastes identified from the data set as requiring alternative
treatment have been assigned to the BOAT based on the physical form of the
waste. The BDAT treatment of these wastes does not normally require
stabilization of treatment residuals. However, a volume of K017
nonwastewaters mixed with other RCRA codes was reported in the TSDR Survey
For these wastes, EPA believes that stabilization of incinerator ash and
scrubber water treatment sludge may be required after incineration in order :o
meet all of the applicable treatment standards.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected volumes of K01~ or
K073 requiring alternative treatment capacity for this rulemaking. Therefore.
EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for deepwell-injected KC1
and K073 wastes.
Based on further analysis of the data set, EPA has identified that
adequate alternative treatment capacity exists for surface-disposed volumes of
K017 and K073 requiring alternative treatment capacity Therefore, EPA is r.o~
granting a national capacity variance for these surface-disposed wastes

3.3.10 K021 Wastes
K021 is aqueous spent antimony catalyst from fluoromethanes production.
Treatment standards for K021 wastes were originally scheduled to be
promulgated as part of the First Third rulemaking. A treatment standard of
"No Land Disposal Based on No Generation" for K021 nonwastewaters was
promulgated in the First Third rule on August 8, 1988. EPA did not promulgate
standards for the wastewater forms of K021 in the First Third rule, and
therefore land disposal of these wastes have been subject to the "soft hammer"
provisions. EPA has decided to establish concentration-based standards for
all forms of K021, and thus has revoked the "No Land Disposal Based on No
Generation" for K021 nonwastewaters, because the data set reports quantities
of this waste being land disposed.
Concentration-based treatment standards for organics in wastewater and
nonwastewater forms of K021 are being promulgated today based on incineration.
For the metal constituent, specifically antimony, concentration-based
treatment standards are being promulgated for K021 nonwastewaters based on
stabilization of incinerator ash, and for K021 wastewaters based on chemical
precipitation.
As shown in Table 3-57, all of the surface-disposed K021 wastes
identified from the data set as requiring alternative treatment have been
assigned to the BOAT based on the physical form of the waste and whether the
waste was a wastewater or nonwastewater.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected volumes of K021
requiring alternative treatment capacity for this rulemaking. Therefore, EPA
is not granting a national capacity variance for deepwell-injected K021
wastes.
Based on an analysis of the data set, EPA has identified that adequate
alternative treatment capacity exists for surface-disposed volumes of K021
requiring alternative treatment capacity Therefore, EPA is not granting a
national capacity variance for these surface-disposed wastes

wastes), K035 (Creosote production wastes), and K083 (Aniline production
wastes) contain similar treatable concentrations of aromatic organics and
hydrocarbons Treatment standards for K022 , K025, and K083 nonwastewaters
were promulgated in the First Third rule EPA promulgated standards of "no
land disposal based on no ash" for K083 nonwastewaters with undetectable ash
and standards based on incineration followed by stabilization of ash for K022
nonwastewaters. K025 treatment standard of "no land disposal based on no
generation" for nonwastewaters were promulgated in the Second Third final
rule. (EPA did not set standards for the wastewater forms of K022 and K083
wastes by their statutory deadlines and, therefore, these wastewaters have
been subject to the "soft hammer" provisions. K083 nonwastewaters with
detectable ash also have been subject to the "soft hammer" provisions )

3.3 12 K028. K029, K095, and K096 Wastes
RCRA hazardous wastes K028, K029, K095, and K096 are generated from
trichloroethane production. Treatment standards for these wastes were
originally scheduled to be promulgated as part of the Second Third rule.
Treatment standards based on incineration were only promulgated for K028
wastewaters and nonwastewaters, and K029, K095, and K096 nonwaste~aters.
Since EPA did not promulgate standards for the wastewater forms of K029. K095
and K096 by their statutory deadline, land disposal of these wastewaters has
been subject to the "soft hammer" provisions.
EPA stated that it intended to develop standards for metals in
nonwascewater forms of K028 and promulgate them with the Third Third wastes.
Concentration standards for metal constituents in K028 nonwastewaters are
promulgated today based on stabilization. For K029. K095, and K096 organic
wastewaters, concentration standards are based on incineration.
Based on an analysis of the data set, alternative treatment capacity is
not needed for deepwell-injected or surface-disposed K028, K029 , K095, and
K096 wastes for this rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national
capacity variance for deepwell-injected or surface-disposed K.028, K029, K095,

Chlordane), K033 (wastewater treatment scrubber water from the chlorination of
cyclopentadiene in the production of Chlordane), K034 (filter solids from
filtration of hexachloro-cyclopentadiene in the production of Chlordane), K041
(wastewater treatment sludge from the production of Toxaphene), K097 (vacuum
stripper discharge from the Chlordane chlorinator in the production of
Chlordane), and K098 (untreated process wastewater from the production of
Toxaphene). EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on incineration
for both wastewaters and nonwastewaters.
As shown in Tables 3-60 through 3-61, all of the surface-disposed and
deepwell-injected K032 and K097 wastes identified from the data set as
requiring alternative treatment have been assigned to their BOAT technologies
based on the physical form of the waste and whether they were wastewaters or
nonwastewaters.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected volumes of KG32

RCRA hazardous wastes K036 (still bottoms from toluene reclamation
distillation in the production of disulfoton) and K.037 (wastewater treatment
sludges from the production of disulfoton) are hazardous wastes from the
production of disulfoton. EPA is revising treatment standards for the
wastewater forms of K037 and the nonwastewater forms of K036 EPA promulgated
a treatment standard of "No Land Disposal Based on No Generation" for K036
nonwastewaters in the First Third final rule on August 8, 1988 EPA amended
this standard on May 2, 1989, to apply to wastes generated from the process
described in the listing description and disposed after August 17, 1988 EPA
also promulgated treatment standards based on incineration for K037
wastewaters and nonwastewaters in First Third Rule. Today, EPA is
promulgating revised treatment standards for K036 nonwastewaters and K037
wastewaters EPA is promulgating a concentration-based standard for K036
nonwastewaters based on incineration. For K037 wastewaters, EPA is
promulgating to revise the BOAT treatment standard based on incineration
promulgated in the First Third final rule, to one based on biological
treatment.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected or surface-
disposed volumes of K036 and K037 wastes requiring alternative treatment
capacity for this rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national
capacity variance for these wastes
-------
33.13 K042, K085, and K105
EPA has grouped these three K wastes together because they all contain or
are represented by HOCs that have the structural classification known as
chlorobenzenes. These chemicals consist of one benzene ring with increasing
chlorine substitution and their associated isomers
K042 and K105
RCRA hazardous wastes K042 (heavy ends or distillation residues from the
distillation of tetrachlorobenzene in the production of 2,4,5-T), and K.105
(separated aqueous stream from the reactor product washing step in the
production of chlorobenzenes) are halogenated organic wastes listed for
toxicity Treatment standards for K042 and K105 were originally scheduled to
be promulgated in the Second Third rule. Because EPA did not promulgate
standards by the statutory deadline for these wastes, their land disposal has
been subject to the "soft hammer" provisions. Today EPA is promulgating
concentration-based standards for K042 and K105 based on incineration for the
nonwastewater and wastewater forms.
As shown in Tables 3-63, the surface-disposed and deepwell-injected K105
wastes requiring alternative treatment have been assigned to the BDAT based on
the physical form of the wastes and whether they were wastewaters or
nonwastewaters.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected volumes of K042
and K105 or surface-disposed volumes of K042 requiring alternative treatment
capacity for this rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national
capacity variance for these deepwell-injected and surface-disposed wastes.
Based on further analysis of the data set, EPA has identified that
adequate alternative treatment capacity exists for surface-disposed volumes of
K105 Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for these
surface - disposed wastes.

K085
Treatment standards for K.085 wastes (distillation of fractionation column
bottoms from the production of chlorobenzenes) were originally scheduled to be
promulgated in the First Third rule. Because EPA did not promulgate standards
by the statutory deadline for these wastes, land disposal of those wastes has
been subject to the "soft hammer" provisions. EPA determined that the
untreated K085 wastes often contained various concentrations of PCBs
Therefore, today EPA has decided to promulgate concentration-based treatment
standards for PCBs for both wastewater and nonwastewater forms of K085. If
K085 wastes exceed 50 ppm PCBs, they must be incinerated in a TSCA permitted
facility (Several of the commercial facilities that are permitted for RCRA
wastes are also permitted for PCB-contaminated wastes under TSCA.) The BOAT
for K085 wastewaters and nonwastewaters are concentration standards based on
incineration.
As shown in Table 3-62, all of the surface-disposed K085 wastes
identified from the data set as requiring alternative treatment have been
assigned to the BOAT technology based on the physical form of the waste and
whether it was a wastewater or nonwastewater
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed K085 wastes requiring alternative
treatment. tMo deepwell - inj ected volume of K085 requiring alternative
treatment was identified. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacitv

(1) K046 Waste from Lead-Based Initiating Compounds
RCRA hazardous waste K046 (wastewater treatment sludges from the
manufacturing and processing of explosives) are wastes from lead-based
initiating compounds In the First Third final rule, EPA promulgated
treatment standards based on stabilization for K046 nonreactive
nonwastewaters Today. EPA is promulgating concentration based standards for
K046 reactive nonwastewaters based on deactivation followed by stabilization.
For K046 reactive wastewaters, EPA is promulgating concentration standards
based on deactivation and chemical precipitation. For K046 non-reactive
wastewaters. EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on deactivation
followed by chemical precipitation. Deactivation includes chemical reduction
or detonation.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deep-well -injected or surface-
disposed volumes of K046 wastewaters or reactive nonwastewaters requiring
alternative treatment capacity for this rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not
granting a national capacity variance for these wastes.
(2) K04^, K045, K047 Reactive Wastes
RCRA hazardous wastes K044 (wastewater treatment sludges from the
manufacturing and processing of explosives), K045 (spent carbon from the
treatment of wastewater containing explosives) and K047 (pink/red water from
TNT operations) are listed as hazardous wastes because they are reactive In
the First Third rule, EPA promulgated the standard of "no land disposal based
on reactivity" for K044, K045, and K047 wastewaters and nonwastewaters
Today, EPA is revoking this standard and promulgating deactivation as the
method of treatment for wastewaters and nonwastewaters
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected or surface -
disposed volumes of K044, K045. and K047 wastewaters or nonwastewaters
requiring alternative treatment capacity for this rulemaking Therefore EPA
is not granting a national capacity variance for these wastes

3 3 17 Petroleum Refining Was res K048, K049, K05L. and K052
EPA is promulgating treatment standards for K048-K052 based on data from
incineration, solvent extraction, and treatment of the metals in wastewater
and nonwastewater residuals. EPA is promulgating concentration standards for
cyanide in K048-K052 wastewaters based on incineration. EPA is also
promulgating concentration standards based on solvent extraction or
incineration for organic constituents in K048-K052 nonwastewaters. EPA is
neither revising the promulgated BDAT treatment standards for organic or metal
constituents in K.048-K052 wastewaters, nor for cyanide in nonwastewaters In
addition, today's rule deletes the treatment standards proposed for arsenic
and selenium in nonwastewater forms of K048-K052 based on stabilization.
Today's rule also promulgates revised treatment standards for nickel and total
chromium in nonwastewater forms of K048-K052 based on stabilization or
recovery
The TSDR Survey indicates that 153.9 million gallons of K048-K052 will
require treatment capacity (i.e., will be displaced from land disposal and
will require treatment) This volume is supplemented by the volume of
residuals (i.e., incinerator ash or solvent extraction residues, and scrubber
water treatment sludge) requiring additional treatment. Tables 3-64 through
3-68 indicate the volume of surface disposed nonwastewaters requiring
alternative treatment. EPA recognizes, however, that this information is
dated, and to this end undertook to obtain as current an assessment of demand
for treatment capacity as possible.
Based on informal contact with the petroleum industry trade association.
it appears that the industry may be able to manage approximately three
quarters of these wastes on-site after August 1990 (refer to "Collection of
Miscellaneous Materials for K048-K052 Capacity" in the docket), in ways not
involving land disposal (primarily in-house incineration, use as fuel, or use
in coking) (This figure is based on an informal survey of 93 API member
companies and assumes that none of the pending no migration petitions for land
treatment units will be granted. However, this estimate does not account for
the uncertainty and timing of constructing and obtaining permits for on-site
disposal/treatment facilities. Therefore, assuming best case (i.e., on-site

-------
capacity is available), this results in approximately 38 6 million gallons per
year of wastes that will require alternative treatment capacity
EPA estimates that there presently exists approximately 21.9 million
gallons of capacity for treatment of K048-K052 wastes in the form of solids
incineration capacity and fuel substitution capacity (these wastes are
suitable for use as alternative fuels in industrial furnaces provided that
thev are dewatered first) There is very little commercial solvent extraction
capacity presently on-line. (EPA knows of some small volume mobile solvent
extraction units being utilized in California, but these units provides
limited volumetric treatment capacity ) Thus, based on these data, there
would be a capacity shortfall of approximately 14.4 million gallons as of Mav
EPA is aware of one large commercial incinerator which could come on line
after May 8 that could provide substantial volumes of capacity (14 4 million
gal,, -.s of new annual capacity which is in addition to the 24 million gallons
of existing capacity) for K048-K052 wastes This facility is presently
seeking a no-migration petition from EPA regarding disposal of scrubber water
into a deep injection well. If the petition is granted, this facility would
provide sufficient capacity to accommodate treatment demand posed by petroleum
wastes A final decision on the no-migration petition is expected within the
next six weeks. (There could still be short-term logistic difficulties
associated with getting wastes to the facility and the facility coming or.-~ir.e
that could prevent immediate utilization of this capacity, however.)
EPA also recently became aware (within the last two weeks) of additional
solids incineration capacity which is presently available that would provide
significant additional treatment capacity for petroleum wastes This
technology, however, requires that wastes undergo a specialized dewaterir.e
pretreatment step. The treatment company presently has two mobile dewater:r£.
It was on the basis of this analysis that EPA senior mana§e-«»r
tentatively concluded that a one-year national capacity extension mi§r.: r
warranted, which draft determination was communicated to all interested par:.t-
by letter late in April, a copy of which is available in the docket. This -J
not a final EPA decision, however, and EPA continued to monitor the si:-a:
The determination in the final rule reflects more information than avai.a: - 1

pretreatment units and (according co its estimates) can add two additional
dewatering units every three months. This limited amount of pretreatment
equipment (there are approximately 190 petroleum facilities to be serviced)
could create a temporary treatment bottleneck in the utilization of this
incineration capacity (This information appears to have been presented to
the petroleum industry by the treatment company late in 1989, so that EPA does
not see notice and comment problems vis-a-vis the petroleum industry in
relying on the information in this rulemaking.)
Based on this information, EPA has decided to grant a six-month national
capacity variance for these wastes, lasting through November 7, 1990 (This
effectively extends the industry's prohibition compliance data three months
from the date established in the First Third rulemaking) EPA believes that
by this date, there will be adequate pretreatment capacity as well as
incineration and fuel substitution capacity to satisfy demand. There also mav
be solvent extraction capacity available by that date, although there are
sharply conflicting estimates in the record of how quickly solvent extraction
capacity can be brought on-line. EPA would be unjustified, however, in
extending the national capacity variance until solvent extraction capacity is
available. See S. Rep. No. 28V 98th Cong. 1st Sess . 19 ("It is not intended
that a generating industry could be allowed to continue to have its
wastes disposed of in an otherwise prohibited manner solely by binding itself
to using a facility which has not been constructed. Thus when an 'alternate
technology' facility is operating at less than maximum capacity, the
Administrator should determine that alternative capacity is available
") Thus, EPA's decision today is based on its best estimates of when
treatment capacity of any type will be available to accommodate these wastes.
EPA recognizes that these data are not the most precise, in some cases
In addition, EPA is concerned with using data that it obtains at the very end
of the rulemaking in making such decisions. Therefore, EPA will make this
additional information available. Based on further information, EPA may amend
the capacity extension in today's rule (through use of appropriate rulemaking
procedures)

3 3 18 Coking Operacions Wastes K060
RCRA hazardous waste K060 (ammonia still lime sludge from coking
operations) is hazardous waste from coking operations In the First Third
final rule, EPA proposed a standard of "No Land Disposal Based on No
Generation" for K060 nonwastewaters. Today, EPA is revoking this standard
since a facility might legitimately use ammonia as a reagent in the coking
process and therefore may generate this waste. Today, for K060
nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating treatment standards based on incineration
as the BOAT EPA is also promulgating concentration standards for K.060
wastewaters based on biological treatment. For K060 arsenic nonwastewaters,
EPA is promulgating BOAT standards based on vitrification.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell- injected or surface-
disposed volumes of K.060 requiring alternative treatment capacity for this
rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for
these wastes.

3 3 19 Electric Furnace Steel Production wastes K061
RCRA hazardous waste K061 (emission control dust/sludge from the primarv
production of steel in electric furnaces) is hazardous waste from electric
furnace steel production. In the First Third rule, two categories of K061
nonwastewaters were defined: (1) low zinc subcategory (less than 15 percent,'
and (2) high zinc subcategory (greater than 15 percent) For the low zinc
subcategory, concentration standards were promulgated based on stabilization.
For the high zinc subcategory, the final standard was "No Land Disposal Based
on High Temperature Metals Recovery as a Method of Treatment." Today EPA is
revising the BOAT for the high zinc nonwastewater subcategory to be re-
smeiting in a high temperature zinc metal recovery furnace as the method of
treatment For wastewaters, EPA is promulgating a concentration based BOAT
standard based on chemical reduction and chemical precipitation.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected or surface-
disposed volumes of K061 wastewaters requiring alternative treatment capacity
for this rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not granting a variance for either
surface - disposed or deepwell-injected K061 wastewaters. For the First Third
final rule, K061 high zinc nonwastewaters were granted a national capacity
variance from the recovery requirement. Upon review of comments, EPA has
determined that an extension of the interim stabilization standard while
recovery processes are completed is needed. Therefore, EPA is granting a one-
vear extension of the stabilization standard for the high-zinc K.061
subcategory

Ink Production Wastes K086
RCRA hazardous waste K086 (solvent washes and sludges, caustic washes and
sludges, or water washes and sludges from cleaning tubs and equipment used in
the formulation of ink from pigments, driers, soaps, and stabilizers
containing chromium and lead) are hazardous wastes from ink production. In
the First Third rule, treatment standards were promulgated for K086 solvent
wastes based on incineration and stabilization for nonwastewaters and
incineration and chromium reduction, chemical precipitation and filtration for
wastewaters EPA is promulgating revised concentration standards for all K086
wastewater forms of these wastes based on biological treatment or wet-air
oxidation followed by carbon adsorption or chemical oxidation followed by
carbon adsorption for organics, chromium reduction followed by chemical
precipitation for metals, and alkaline chlorination for cyanides. For
nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on
incineration for organics, followed by stabilization for metals.
Treatment data for wastes believed similar to K086 show that K086 wastes
solvent, caustic, and water washes, and their sludges can be treated by
incineration These treatment data also show that a wide range of
technologies are available to recover valuable constituents or energy from
K086 wastes As a "worst-case" analysis, EPA included all K086 wastes (Table
3-691 identified in the data set, in the capacity analysis conducted for First
Third wastes. Consequently, no additional capacity will be required in
todav1s final rule, and no capacity variance is being granted for K086 wastes.

Dichioroethane), U078 (1,1-Dichloroethylene), U079 (1, 2-Dichloroethvlene) ,
U080 (Methylene chloride), U083 (1,2,-Dichloropropane) U084 (1,3-

U209 (1,1,2,2-Tetrachloroethane), U210 (Tetrachloroethylene), U211 (Carbon
tetrachloride), U226 (1,1,1 Trichloroethane), U227 (1, 1, 2-Trichloroethane),
U228 CTrichloroethylene), and U243 (Hexachloropropene) EPA is promulgating
technology-based treatment standards for U074 (1,4-Dichloro-2-butene) and U184
(Pentachloroethane) Treatment standards for U044, U074, U077, U078. U209,
U210, U211, U226, U227, and U228 were originally scheduled to be promulgated
in the First Third Rule; standards for U080, U083, U131, and U208 were
originally scheduled to be promulgated in the Second Third rule. EPA did not
promulgate standards for these wastes in either rules, and therefore the land
disposal of these wastes has been subject to the "soft hammer" provisions.
U074. U079, and U084 wastes have stereoisomers identified as "cis-" and
"trans-" For U084 wastes, both the "cis-" and "trans-" isomers can be
quantified using SW-846 methods. Therefore, concentration-based treatment
standards are being promulgated for both isomers of this compound. Since the
trans- isomer is also specified in 40 CFR 261 Appendix VIII, EPA is
promulgating concentration-based treatment standards only for trans-1,2-
dichloroethylene for U079 wastes. For U074 wastes, these isomers cannot be
quantified using SW-846 methods. Therefore, EPA is promulgating technology-
based standards for U074 wastes.
For U044, U076. U077, U078, U079, U080, U083, U084, U131, U208. U209,
1'210, L'211. U226, U227 , U228, and U243, EPA is promulgating concentration
standards based on biological treatment, or wet-air oxidation followed by
carbon adsorption for wastewaters, and incineration for nonwastewaters For
U074 and U184 , EPA is promulgating wet-air oxidation followed by carbon

adsorpcion. chemical oxidation followed by carbon adsorption or incineration
as methods of treatment for wastewaters, and incineration as the method of
treatment for nonwastewaters. The BOAT treatment of these wastes does not
normally required stabilization of treatment residuals However, volumes of
U044 U077, and U080 mixed with other RCRA codes were reported in the data
set. For these wastes, stabilization of incinerator ash and scrubber water
treatment sludge may be required after incineration in order to meet all
applicable treatment standards for the mixture
As shown in Tables 3-70 through 3-85, all of the surface-disposed and
deepwell-injected U044, U074, U076, U077, U078, U079, U080, U083, U131. U2C8 ,
U209 U210. U211, U226, U227, and U228 wastes identified from the data set as
requiring alternative treatment have been assigned to their BOAT based on the
physical form and whether the wastes were wastewaters or nonwastewaters
Deepwell-injected volumes of U077, U083, and U084 were also identified; but,
since these waste streams will be treated on-site, their quantities are not
included in the required capacity for combustion.
During the capacity analysis for the proposed Third Third rule EPA
identified several large volumes of P and U coded wastes reported as deepwell
injected in the TSDR Survey EPA contacted the firms reporting these large
streams to further characterize the generation and current management of these
large volumes. Specifically, EPA wanted to determine if these large streams
were actually generated as small volumes of hazardous wastes and subsequently
mixed with large volumes of other wastes.
A 75 million gallon per year stream containing U044, U080. and U211 was
reported in the TSDR Survey as deepwell-injected; as was a 124 million gallon
per year stream containing U226 Follow-up conversations with the facilities
reporting each of these waste streams indicated that they were mixtures
containing small unknown fractions of U044, U080, U211, and U226 respectively
Based on this information, EPA assumed that 100,000 gallons per year was a
reasonable estimate of the volume of U044, U080, U211, and U226 generated
prior to mixing with other wastes. Because the land disposal restrictions
apply to wastes at the point of generation, EPA used the 100.000 gallon per
year estimate as the required alternative treatment capacity for the L'04a ,

3^2 Halogenated Pesticides and Chlorobenzenes
This category of halogenated organics consists of seven P wastes and 19 U
wastes. EPA grouped these waste codes together because the primary
constituents for which the wastes were listed are HOCs that are (or have been)
primarily used as pesticides This category is divided into the following
groups: chlorinated norbornane and norbornene derivatives; chlorobenzenes,
chlorophenoxycarboxylic acids and derivatives; chlorinated diphenyls: and
lindane and hexachlorobutadiene.
3 4.2.1 Chlorinated Norbornane and Norbornene Derivatives
P004, P037, P050, P051, P059, P060, P123, U036, U130, and U142
EPA has grouped these ten waste codes together because they all contain
or represent halogenated pesticides that have the structural classification
known as chlorinated norbornane and norbornene derivatives. The P wastes are
listed for acute toxicity The U wastes are listed for toxicity For all of
these wastes except U130, EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on
biological treatment, or wet-air oxidation followed by carbon adsorption for
wastewaters, and incineration for nonwastewaters. For U130, EPA is
promulgating wet-air oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, chemical
oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, or incineration as methods of
treatment for wastewaters, and incineration as the method of treatment for
nonwastewaters.
As shown in Tables 3-86 through 3-93 the surface-disposed P004, P03~
P050, P051, P059, P123, U036, and U142, and deepwell-injected P050. P051. and
P059 were assigned to the BOAT technology based on the physical form of :r.e
waste and whether it was a wastewater or nonwastewater.
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed and deepwell-injected volumes of
these wastes requiring alternative treatment. In addition, analysis of -r.e
data set revealed no surface-disposed or deepwell-injected volumes of PCt . ire:
U130 wastes. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variar.ce :-r
anv of these surface-disposed or deepwell-injected wastes.

(1, 2 , 4 , 5 - tetzrachlorobenzene) are organic compounds listed as hazardous for
toxicity. EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on incineration
for the nonwastewater forms of these wastes, and biological treatment, or wet-
air oxidation followed by carbon adsorption for the wastewater forms
As shown in Table 3-94 through 3-99 the surface-disposed U037, U070,
U071, U072, U127, and U185, and deepwell-injected U037, U070, and U185 have
been assigned to the BOAT technology based on their physical form and whether
they were wastewaters or nonwastewaters.
During the capacity analysis for the proposed Third Third rule, EPA
identified several large volumes of P and U coded wastes reported as deepwell
injected in the TSDR Survey. EPA contacted the firms reporting these large
streams to further characterize the generation and current management of these
large streams. Specifically, EPA wanted to determine if these large streams
were actually generated as small volumes of hazardous wastes and subsequently
mixed with large volumes of other wastes.
A deepwell-injected volume of 28 million gallons per year containing U070
was reported in the TSDR Survey. Follow-up conversations with the facility
reporting this waste stream indicated that the stream was a mixture containing
a small unknown fraction of U070. Based on this information, EPA assumed that
100,000 gallons per year was a reasonable estimate of the volume of U070
generated prior to mixing with other wastes. Because the land disposal
restrictions apply to wastes at the point of generation, EPA used the 100,000
gallon per year estimate as the required alternative treatment capacity for
the U070 contained in this mixed waste stream. A discussion on this
methodology is included in section 3.0
Analysis of the data set revealed no surface-disposed U183 and U207, or
deepwell-injected U071, U072, U127, U183, and U207 requiring alternative

Based on further analysis of the data set, EPA has identified that

volumes of U037, U070, U071, U072, U127, and U185, and deepwell-injected
volumes of U037, U070. and U185. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national

treatment for wastewaters, and incineration as the method of treatment for
r.onwastewaters EPA believes that the nonwastewater forms of U240 are not
amenable to fuel substitution.
As shown in Table 3-100, all of the surface-disposed U240 wastes
identified from the data set as requiring alternative treatment have been
assigned to one of the BOAT technologies based on the physical form of the

The following wastes, U038, U060, U061, U132, and U247 have beer, grouped
together because they all contain halogenated pesticides classified as
chlorinated diphenyl compounds. RCRA hazardous waste L'038 (Chlorobenzilate) .
U060 (ODD), U061 (DDT), U132 (Hexachlorophene), and U247 (Methoxychlor) are
halogenated organic wastes listed for toxicity Treatment standards for U060
and U061 were originally scheduled to be promulgated in the Second Third and
First Third rule, respectively Because EPA did not promulgate standards by
the statutory deadline for these wastes, their land disposal has been subject
to the "soft hammer" provisions.
Today EPA is promulgating treatment standards for these soft hammer
wastes and the remaining Third Third wastes in this category (U060 (ODD) and
U061 (DDT) can both exist as one of two isomers, which can be analyzed by SW-
846 for organochlorine pesticides. EPA is promulgating treatment standards
for U060 and U061 based on analyses for both isomers.) For U060, U061, and
L'247 EPA is promulgating concentration-based treatment standards based on
biological treatment, or wet-air oxidation followed by carbon adsorption for

wet-air oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, chemical oxidation followed
bv carbon adsorption, or incineration as methods of treatment for wastewaters,
and incineration as the method of treatment for nonwastewaters.
As shown in Tables 3-101 and 3-102, all of the surface-disposed U061 and
U247 wastes identified from the data set as requiring alternative treatment
have been assigned to one of the BOAT technologies based on the physical form
of the waste and whether the waste was a wastewater or nonwastewater EPA has

3^.25 Lindane and Hexachlorobutadiene U128, and U129
Both of these chemicals are chlorinated aliphatics and are typically used
as pesticides or in the production of pesticides. RCRA hazardous wastes U1Z3
(Hexachlorobutadiene) and U129 (Lindane) are listed for their toxicity
Treatment standards for U128 and U129 were originally scheduled to be
promulgated in the Second Third and First Third rule, respectively; because
EPA did not promulgate standards by the statutory deadline for these wastes,
their land disposal has been subject to the "soft hammer" provisions. Today
EPA is promulgating concentration-based treatment standards based on detection
limits for hexachlorobutadiene using analysis of total constituent
concentrations for U128.
U129 is the most common isomer of hexachlorocyclohexane (BHC) Typical
commercial mixtures of Lindane were manufactured such that three other isomers
were present in reasonably high concentrations: alpha-, beta-, and delta-BHC.
EPA is promulgating concentration-based standards for all four isomers for
wastes identifies as U129 For both U128 and U129, EPA is promulgating these
concentration standards based on biological treatment, or wet-air oxidation
followed by carbon adsorption for wastewaters, and incineration for
nonwastewaters
As shown in Table 3-103, the surface-disposed U129 wastes identified from
the data set as requiring alternative treatment have been assigned to the BOAT
based on the physical form of the waste.
Based on data set data, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed U129 wastes requiring alternative
treatment, and no deepwell-injected volumes of U129 wastes requiring
alternative treatment were identified. Therefore, EPA is not granting a
national capacity variance for U129 wastes
No deepwell-injected or surface-disposed U128 volumes requiring

U081, and U082. These concentration standards are based on biological
treatment, or wet-air oxidation followed by carbon adsorption for wastewaters
and incineration for nonwastewaters.
As shown in Tables 3-104 through 3-107 the surface-disposed U039. U048,

3 4.5 Miscellaneous Halogenated Organics
EPA has grouped all of the remaining halogenated organics together ir.r
general category identified as miscellaneous halogenated organics These U
and P wastes represent a wide range of chemicals produced in a variety of
individual processes. These wastes have been divided into seven groups:
chlorinated diphenyls; chlorinated polynuclear aromatics; chlorinated amides
and amines; chlorinated methylbenzenes; halogenated aliphatics; halogenated
aldehydes, ethers, and esters; and halogenated organo-sulfur compounds
3.4.5 1 Chlorinated Diphenyls U073 and U158
There are two miscellaneous HOCs that are classified as chlorinated
diphenyls: U073 (3,3-dichlorobenzidine) and U158 (4,4-Methylene-bis -(2 -
chloroaniline)) Treatment standards for U073 and U158 were originally
scheduled to be promulgated in the Second Third and First Third rules,
respectively; because EPA did not promulgate standards by the statutory
deadline for these wastes, their land disposal has been subject to the "soft
hammer" provisions. Today EPA is promulgating concentration-based standards
for U158 wastewaters based on biological treatment or wet-air oxidation
followed by carbon adsorption for wastewaters, and incineration for
nonwastewaters. For U073, EPA is promulgating wet-air oxidation followed by-
carbon adsorption, chemical oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, or
incineration as methods of treatment for wastewaters; and incineration as the
method of treatment for nonwastewters
As shown in Tables 3-113 and 3-114, the surface-disposed U073 and L'158
wastes identified from the da;a set as requiring alternative treatment have
been assigned to the BOAT based on the physical form of the waste and whether
the waste was a wastewater or nonwastewater A portion of U158 waste has also
been assigned to stabilization, which indicates that U158 was mixed with
another waste code requiring stabilization for treatment. Therefore, the
portion of U158 waste that was mixed with another code was sent to
stabilization in order to treat the waste stream completely
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment

These following wastes, P024, P057 , U049 , U097, U192, andU222, are
grouped together because they contain an amide or amine groui attached to a
relatively simple, hydrocarbon structure.
P024 and U192
RCRA hazardous wastes P024 (p-Chloroaniline) and U192 (Pronamide) are
listed as hazardous for acute toxicity and toxicity, respectively Treatment
standards for U192 were originally scheduled to be promulgated in the First
Third rule; because EPA did not promulgate standards by the statutory deadline
for these wastes, their land disposal has been subject to the "soft hammer"
provisions. Concentration-based standards for P024 and U192 wastewaters and
nonwastewaters are being promulgated today based on biological treatment, or
wet-air oxidation followed by carbon adsorption for wastewaters, and
incineration for nonwastewaters.
As shown in Tables 3-116 and 3-118, the surface-disposed P024 and U192
and the deepwell-injected U192 wastes identified from the data set as
requiring alternative treatment have been assigned to their BOAT based on the
physical form of the waste and whether the waste was a wastewater or
nonwastewater.
During the capacity analysis for the proposed Third Third rule, EPA
identified several large volumes of P and U coded wastes reported as deepwell
injected in the TSDR Survey EPA contacted the firms reporting these large
streams to further characterize the generation and current management of these
large volumes. Specifically, EPA wanted to determine if these large streams
were actually generated as small volumes of hazardous wastes and subsequently
mixed with large volumes of other wastes
A deepwell injected volume of 189 million gallons per year containing
U192 was reported in the TSDR Survey Follow-up conversations with the
facility reporting this waste stream indicated that the stream was a mixture
containing a small unknown fraction of U192. Based on this information. EPA
3-195
-------
assumed that 100,000 gallons per year was a reasonable estimate of the vol
of U192 generated prior to mixing with other wastes Because the land
disposal restrictions apply to wastes at the point of generation, EPA used the
100,000 gallon per year estimate as the required alternative treatment
capacity for the U192 contained in this mixed waste stream. A discussion on
this methodology is included in section 3.0.
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed P024 and U192 and deepwell-injected
U192 wastes requiring alternative treatment. No deepwell-injected U192 wastes
requiring alternative treatment were identified. Therefore, EPA is not
granting a national capacity variance for these wastes.

Treatment standards for P057 (2-Fluoroacetamide), U049 (4-Chloro-o-
toluidine hydrochloride), and U097 (Dimethylcarbomyl chloride) were originally
scheduled to be promulgated in the Second Third rule; because EPA did not
promulgate standards by the statutory deadline for these wastes, their land
disposal has been subject to the "soft hammer" provisions.
Today EPA is promulgating incineration as a method of treatment for P05~
U0^9, U097, and U222 (o-Toluidine hydrochloride) nonwastewaters. For the
wastewater form of these wastes, EPA is promulgating wet-air oxidation
followed by carbon adsorption, chemical oxidation followed by carbon

As shown in Table 3-117, the deepwell-injected P057 wastes identified
from the data set as requiring alternative treatment have been assigned to
their BOAT based on the physical form of the wastes.
Based on the data set data, EPA has identified adequate alternative

A deepwell injected volume of 124 million gallons per year containing
U138 was reported in the TSDR Survey. Follow-up conversations with the

assumed that 100,000 gallons per year was a reasonable estimate of the volume
of U138 generated prior to mixing with other wastes. Because the land
disposal restrictions apply to wastes at the point of generation, EPA used the
100,000 gallon per year estimate as the required alternative treatment

3.4.5.6 Halogenated Aldehydes, Ethers and Esters
P016, P023, P058, P095, U006, U024, U025. U027, U033, U034.
U041, U042, U046, and U156
This subcategory of miscellaneous halogenated organics consists of
fourteen chemicals grouped together because they are relatively simple
oxygenated hydrocarbons with various degrees of halogenation. The oxygenated
hydrocarbons include ethers, esters, and aldehydes.
P016, P023, P058, P095, U006, U033, U034, U041, U042, U046, and U156
RCRA hazardous wastes P016 (bis-Chloromethyl ether), P023
(Chloroacetaldehyde), P058 (Fluoracetic acid, sodium salt), and P095
(Phosgene), are halogenated organic wastes listed as hazardous for acute
toxicity. U006 (Acetyl Chloride), U033 (Carbonyl fluoride), U034
(Trichloroacetaldehyde), U041 (n-Chloro-2,3-epoxypropane), U042 (2-Chloroethyl
vinyl ether), U046 (Chloromethyl methyl ether), and U156 (Methyl
chlorocarbonate) are halogenated organic wastes listed as hazardous for
toxicity Treatment standards for P016, P058, U041, and U046 were originally
scheduled to be promulgated in the First Third rule. Because EPA did not
promulgate standards, their land disposal has been subject to the "soft
hammer" provisions.
EPA has identified the BDAT for these wastes to be wet-air oxidation
followed by carbon adsorption, chemical oxidation followed by carbon
adsorption, or incineration as methods of treatment for wastewaters; and
incineration as the method of treatment for nonwastewaters. EPA has
identified that the nonwastewater forms of these wastes are not amenable to
fuel substitution.
As shown in Tables 3-125 through 3-128, the surface-disposed P058, U006,
and U156 and deepwell-injected P058, and U034, wastes requiring alternative
treatment have been assigned to one of the BDAT technologies based on whether
the waste was described as a wastewater or nonwastewater. A portion of U006
waste has also been assigned to stabilization, which indicates that U006 was
mixed with another waste code requiring stabilization for treatment.
3-211
-------
Therefore, the portion of U006 waste that was mixed with another code was sent
to stabilization in order to treat the waste stream completely
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for surface-disposed P058, U006, and U156 and
deepwell-injected P058 and U034 wastes requiring alternative treatment. No
surface-disposed U034 or deepwell-injected U006 or U156 requiring alternative
treatment for this rulemaking were identified. Therefore, EPA is not granting
a national capacity variance for these wastes
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected or surface-
disposed volumes of P016, P023, P095, U033, U041, U042, and U046 wastes
requiring alternative treatment capacity for this rulemaking. A deepwell-
injected volume of U041 was identified, but since it will be treated on-site,
this volume was not included in the required capacity for any of the
appropriate technologies. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity
variance for these wastes.
U024, U025, and U027
Of the fourteen chemicals in this category, only U024 (bis 2-
chloroethoxymethane), U025 (dichloroethyl ether), and U027 (bis-2-
chloroisopropyl ether) are amenable to quantification in treatment residuals
by SW-846 methods. Treatment standards for U025 were originally scheduled to
be promulgated in the Second Third rule. Because EPA did not promulgate
standards at that time, land disposal of these wastes has been subject to the
"soft hammer" provisions. For U024, U025, and U027, EPA is promulgating
concentration-based standards. These concentration standards are based on
biological treatment, or wet-air oxidation followed by carbon adsorption for
wastewaters, and incineration for nonwastewaters.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected or surface-
disposed volumes of U024, U025 and U027 wastes requiring alternative treatment
for this rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity
variance for these wastes.

3.4.5.7 Chlorinated Organo-Sulfur P026, P118, U020, and U062
The following wastes, P026 (1-(o-Chlorophenyl) thiourea), P118
(Trichloromethanethiol), U020 (Benzenesulfonyl chloride), and U062 (Diallate),
have been grouped together because they are chlorinated organo-sulfur
chemicals. Treatment standards for P026, U020, U062 were originally scheduled
to be promulgated in the Second Third rule. Because EPA did not promulgate
standards, land disposal of these wastes has been subject to the "soft hammer"
provisions.
EPA is promulgating incineration as a method of treatment for
nonwastewaters, and wet-air oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, chemical
oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, or incineration as methods of
treatment for nonwasetwaters for all four of these wastes.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected or surface-

U019, U220, and U239
RCRA hazardous wastes U019 (benzene), U220 (toluene), and U239 i.xvlene)
are organic compounds listed as hazardous for toxicity. EPA is promulgating
concentration standards based on incineration for the nonwastewater forms of
these wastes, and biological treatment, or wet-air oxidation followed by
carbon adsorption for the wastewater forms.
As shown in Tables 3-129, 3-132, and 3-133, most of the U019, U220, and
U239 wastes requiring alternative treatment have been assigned to the
appropriate technology based on the physical form of the waste. The BOAT
treatment for the nonwastewater forms of these wastes does not normally
require stabilization of incinerator ash or scrubber water treatment sludge:
however, several U019, U220, and U239 waste streams were described as also
containing metal-bearing wastes. For these waste streams, EPA believes that
stabilization of the incinerator ash and scrubber water treatment sludge will
be necessary to meet the applicable metals treatment standards. Additionally,
one small U019 waste stream was described as containing a mercury-containing
waste. This waste stream was assigned to mercury retorting followed by
stabilization of the retort slag. EPA believes that this type of treatment
will be capable of meeting the applicable treatment standards for this waste
stream.
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed and deepwell-injected U019, U22G and
U239 wastes requiring alternative treatment. Therefore, EPA is not granting a
national capacity variance for these wastes.

followed by carbon adsorption, chemical oxidation followed by carbon
adsorption, or incineration as methods of treatment for wastewaters, and
incineration or fuel substitution as methods of treatment for nonwastewaters.
As shown in Tables 3-130 and 3-131, the U055 and U056 wastes requiring
alternative treatment were assigned to one of the BOAT technologies (i.e.,
incineration)
During the capacity analysis for the proposed Third Third rule, EPA
identified several large volumes of P and U coded wastes reported as deepwell
injected in the TSDR Survey. EPA contacted the firms reporting these large
streams to further characterize the generation and current management of these
large volumes. Specifically, EPA wanted to determine if these large streams
were actually generated as small volumes of hazardous wastes and subsequently
mixed with large volumes of other wastes.
A deepwell-injected volume of 60 million gallons per year containing U055
was reported in the TSDR Survey Follow-up conversations with the facility
reporting this waste stream indicated that the stream was a mixture containing
a small unknown fraction of U055. Based on this information, EPA assumed that
100,000 gallons per year was a reasonable estimate of the volume of U055
generated prior to mixing with other wastes. Because the land disposal
restrictions apply to wastes at the point of generation, EPA used the 100,000
gallon per year estimate as the required alternative treatment capacity for
the U055 contained in this mixed waste stream. A discussion on this
methodology is included in section 3.0
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed and deepwell-injected U055 and U056
wastes requiring alternative treatment. Therefore, EPA is not granting a
national capacity variance for these wastes.
Also based on analysis of the data set, EPA has identified that no
volumes of U186 will require alternative treatment for this rulemaking and
therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for this waste.

RCRA hazardous wastes U005 (2-acetylaminofluorene), U022 (benzo(a)
pyrene), U120 (fluoranthene), U157 (3-methylchloanthrene), and U165
(naphthalene) are polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons listed as hazardous for

on incineration for nonwastewaters, and biological treatment, or wet-air
oxidation followed by carbon adsorption for wastewaters.
As shown in Tables 3-134, 3-135, and 3-136, the U005, U022, and U120
wastes requiring alternative treatment are surface-disposed wastes. Most of
these wastes have been assigned to the appropriate technology based on the
physical form of the waste. As shown in Table 3-137 and 3-138, the U157 and
U165 wastes requiring alternative treatment are also deepwell-injected. A
small amount of U022 was assigned to vitrification as it was part of a mixture
requiring vitrification. Although EPA believes no capacity exists for
vitrification, EPA is not proposing to grant U022 nonwastewaters a variance
because this treatment is not necessary for the U022 treatment standards
During the capacity analysis for the proposed Third Third rule, EPA
identified several large volumes of P and U coded wastes reported as deepwell

reporting this waste stream indicated that the stream was a mixture containing
a small unknown fraction of U157 Based on this information, EPA assumed that
100,000 gallons per year was a reasonable estimate of the volume of U157

(2,4-dimethyl phenol), U170 (4-nitrophenol), U188 (phenol), and U201
(resorcinol) are also nonhalogenated organic compounds. These wastes are
listed as hazardous for toxicity For P020, P047, P048, U052, U101, U170, and
U188, EPA is promulgating treatment standards based on incineration for

method of treatment for P034 nonwastewaters, and incineration or fuel
substitution for U201 nonwastewaters. For both P034 and U201 wastewaters, EPA
is promulgating wet-air oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, chemical
oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, or incineration as methods of

set, several U188 waste streams were described as also containing
metal-bearing wastes including arsenic. For the mixed U188 and metal -bear ir.§
wastes that did not contain arsenic, EPA believes that stabilization of
treatment residuals such as incinerator ash, scrubber water, treatment
sludges, and wastewater treatment sludges will be required to meet all of the
applicable treatment standards For the mixed U188 and metal-bearing wastes

streams to further characterize the generation and current management of these

A 2 million gallon per year stream containing P020 was reported in the
TSDR Survey as deepwell-injected; as were a 60 million gallon per year stream
and a 5 million gallon per year stream containing U188. Follow-up
conversations with the facilities reporting these waste streams indicated that
they were mixtures containing small unknown fractions of P020 and U188. Based
on this information, EPA assumed that 100,000 gallons per year was a
reasonable estimate of the volume of P020 and U188 generated prior to mixing
with other wastes in each of these streams. Because the land disposal
restrictions apply to wastes at the point of generation, EPA used the 100,000
gallon per year estimate as the required alternative treatment capacity for
the P020 contained in the mixed waste stream containing P020. Because two
mixed streams contained U188, EPA estimated the required alternative treatment
capacity for U188 to be 200,000 gallons per year. A discussion on this
methodology is included in section 3 0.
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed P020, P047, P048, U052, U101, U170,
U188, and U201 wastes and deepwell-injected P020, P048 , U170, and U188 wastes
requiring alternative treatment. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national
capacity variance for these wastes.
Also based on analysis of the data set, EPA has identified that no volume
of P034 (2-cyclohexylphenol-4,6-dinitrophenol) will require alternative
treatment for this rulemaking and therefore, EPA is not granting a national
capacity variance for this waste.

The P wastes are listed as hazardous for acute toxicity The U wastes
are listed as hazardous for toxicity. EPA has identified the BDAT
technologies for U002, U004, U031, U108, U112, U117, U118, U140, U159. U161,
and U162 to be treatment standards based on the performance of biological
treatment, or wet-air oxidation followed by carbon adsorption for
nonwastewaters, and incineration for wastewaters. For P001, P003, P005, P088
P102, U001, U008, U053, U085. U113, U122, U123, U124, U125. U126, U147, U154,
U166, U182, U197, U213, and U248, EPA has identified incineration or fuel
substitution as methods of treatment for nonwastewaters and wet-air oxidation
or chemical oxidation, followed by carbon adsorption, or incineration as
methods of treatment for wastewaters. For U057, EPA is promulgating
concentration standards based on biological treatment, or wet-air oxidation
followed by carbon adsorption for wastewaters, and incineration as the method
of treatment for nonwastewaters.
As shown in Tables 3-147 through 3-176, most of these wastes identified
from the data set as requiring alternative treatment have been assigned to one
of the BDAT technologies based on the physical form of the waste and whether
the waste was a wastewater or nonwastewater. The BDAT treatment of these
wastes does not normally require stabilization of treatment residuals.
However, a small volume of U004 and U122 nonwastewaters mixed with
metal-bearing wastes was reported in the data set. For these wastes, EPA
believes that stabilization of incinerator ash and scrubber water treatment
sludge will be required after incineration in order to meet all the applicable
treatment standards. Also, one U008 nonwastewater mixed with mercury-bearing
waste was reported in the data set. For this waste stream, EPA believes that
mercury retorting of treatment residuals will be required after incineration
to meet all of the applicable treatment standards. Volumes of U159 wastes
were assigned to carbon adsorption followed by chemical precipitation,
stabilization of wastewater treatment sludge, and vitrification as part of a
mixture requiring these technologies. EPA believes that these treatments will
be required to meet all applicable treatment standards.
During the capacity analysis for the proposed Third Third rule, EPA
identified several large volumes of P and U coded wastes reported as deepweil
injected in the TSDR Survey EPA contacted the firms reporting these large
streams to further characterize the generation and current management of these
3-243
-------
large volumes. Specifically, EPA wanted to determine if these large streams
were actually generated as small volumes of hazardous wastes and subsequently
mixed with large volumes of other wastes.
A 60 million gallons per year stream containing U002 was reported in the
TSDR Survey as deepwell-injected; as were a 189 million gallon per year stream
containing U008, a 2 million gallon per year stream containing U031. a 1
million gallon per year stream containing U122, a 243 million gallon per year
stream containing U162, and a 124 million gallon per year stream containing
U197. Follow-up conversations with the facilities reporting each of these
waste streams indicated that they were mixtures containing small unknown
fractions of U002, U008, U031, U122, U162, and U197 respectively Based on
this information, EPA assumed that 100,000 gallons per year was a reasonable
estimate of the volume of U002, U008, U031, U122, U162, and U197 generated
prior to mixing with other wastes. Because the land disposal restrictions
apply to wastes at the point of generation, EPA used the 100,000 gallon per
year estimate as the required alternative treatment capacity for these
deepwell-injected wastes. A discussion on this methodology is included in
section 3.0
The data set also included a deepwell-injected volume of U213. However,
because this waste stream will be treated on-site, its volume is not included
in required capacity for combustion.
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for these surface-disposed and deepwell-injected P and U
wastes requiring alternative treatment. Furthermore, analysis of the data set
indicates that no volumes of U053, U085, U124, and U166 will require
alternative treatment for this rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not granting a
national capacity variance for any of these wastes.

3 4 10 Organo-Nitrogen Compounds
EPA has grouped eleven P wastes and thirty-seven U wastes together into a
single general treatability category, identified as organo-nitrogen compounds.
These P and U wastes represent a wide range of chemicals produced in a variety
of individual processes. EPA's reasons for grouping these organic chemicals
together are that they all contain nitrogen and do not contain chlorine or any
other halogen. To facilitate transferring appropriate treatability data, EPA
further divided this category into six subgroups based on structure, giving
functional group similarities particular priority. These subgroups are: 1)
Nitrogen Heterocyclics; 2) Amines and Amides; 3) Nitrogen-Bearing Diphenyls;
4) Nitriles; 5) Nitro Compounds; and 6) Nitroso Compounds.
3.4.10 (1) Nitrogen Heterocyclic Compounds POOS, P018, P054, P067,

RCRA hazardous wastes POOS (4-aminopyridine), P018 (bruane), P054
(aziridine), and P067 (2-methylaziridine) are nitrogen heterocyclic compounds
listed as hazardous for acute toxicity EPA has identified the BOAT
technologies for these wastes to be wet-air oxidation followed by carbon
adsorption, chemical oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, or incineration
for wastewaters, and incineration for nonwastewaters. EPA is promulgating
these technologies as methods of treatment rather than developing
concentration-based standards. EPA believes that the nonwastewater forms of
these wastes will not be amenable to fuel substitution.
As shown in Tables 3-177 and 3-178, only surface-disposed P018 and P067
wastes were identified as requiring alternative treatment. These wastes were
assigned to one of the BOAT technologies based on the physical form of the
waste and whether it was described as a wastewater or nonwastewater
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed P018 and P067 wastes requiring
alternative treatment. Furthermore, analysis of the data set indicates that
no volumes of POOS and P054 will require alternative treatment for this

RCRA hazardous wastes U007 (acrylomide), U012 (analine), U167
(1-naphthylamine), and U168 (2-naphthylamine) are amine and amide compounds
listed as hazardous for toxicity EPA has identified the BDAT technologies
for U007 and U167 wastes to be wet-air oxidation followed by carbon
adsorption, chemical oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, or incineration
for wastewaters, and incineration for nonwastewaters. EPA is promulgating
these technologies as methods of treatment rather than developing
concentration-based standards. For U012 and U168 wastewaters, EPA is
promulgating concentration-based standards based on biological treatment, or
wet-air oxidation followed by carbon adsorption. For U012 nonwastewaters, EPA
is promulgating concentration standards based on incineration. For U168
nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating incineration as the method of treatment.
As shown in Tables 3-183, 3-184, and 3-186, only surface-disposed UOO"
U012, and U167 nonwastewaters, and deepwell-injected U007 and U012
nonwastewaters, were identified as requiring alternative treatment. These
wastes were assigned to a BDAT technology for nonwastewaters based on the
physical form of the waste. The nonwastewater BDAT treatment of these wastes
does not normally require treatment of residuals. A mixed U007 and
mercury-bearing waste stream was reported in the data set. EPA believes rhar
mercury retorting of treatment residuals will be required after the UOO" BDAT
treatment to meet all the applicable treatment standards.
During the capacity analysis for the proposed Third Third rule, EPA
identified several large volumes of P and U coded wastes reported as deepve..
injected in the TSDR Survey EPA contacted the firms reporting these large
streams to further characterize the generation and current management of -.r.ese
large volumes. Specifically, EPA wanted to determine if these large streams
were actually generated as small volumes of hazardous wastes and subsequer:.
mixed with large volumes of other wastes.

-------
A deepwell injected volume of 28 million gallons per year containing U012
and a deepwell injected volume of 189 million gallons per year containing U007
were reported in the TSDR Survey Follow-up conversations with the facilities
reporting these waste streams indicated that they were mixtures containing
small unknown fractions of U012 and U007 respectively Based on this
information, EPA estimated that 100,000 gallons per year was a reasonable
estimate of the volume of U012 and U007 generated prior to mixing with other
wastes Because the land disposal restrictions apply to wastes at the point
of generation, EPA used the 100,000 gallon per year estimate as the required
alternative treatment capacity for the U012 and U007 contained in these mixed
waste streams. A discussion on this methodology is included in section 3.0
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed U007, U012, and U167 wastes and
deepwell-injected U007 and U012 wastes requiring alternative treatment.
Analysis of the data set indicates that no volumes of U168 will require
alternative treatment for this rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not granting a
national capacity variance for these wastes.
P046, P064, U092, U110, U194, and U238
RCRA hazardous wastes P046 (alpha, alpha-Dimethylphenethylamine) , P064
(isocyanic acid, ethyl ester), U092 (dimethylamine), U110 (dipropylamine),
U194 (n-propylamine), and U238 (ethyl carbamate) are amine and amide
compounds P064 is listed as hazardous for acute toxicity. U092, U194. and
U238 are listed as hazardous for toxicity EPA has identified the BOAT
technologies for P046, P064, U092, U110, U194, and U238 to be wet-air
oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, chemical oxidation followed by carbon
adsorption, or incineration for wastewaters, and incineration for
nonwastewaters. EPA is promulgating these technologies as methods of
treatment rather than developing concentration-based standards.
As shown in Tables 3-182, 3-185, 3-187, and 3-188, only surface-disposed

were identified as requiring alternative treatment. These wastes were
assigned to a nonwastewater BOAT technology based on the physical form of the

metal-bearing waste streams were reported in the data set. EPA has identified
that stabilization of incinerator ash and scrubber water treatment sludge will
be required after the BDAT treatment to meet all the applicable treatment
standards for these waste streams.
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for the surface-disposed P064, U092, and U238 wastes and
deepwell-injected U194 wastes requiring alternative treatment. No deepwell
injected P064, U092, and U238 wastes or surface-disposed U194 wastes were
reported and therefore, will not require alternative treatment for this
rulemaking. Furthermore, analysis of the data set indicates that no volumes
of P046 and U110 will require alternative treatment for this rulemaking.
Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for any of these
wastes.

The P wastes are listed as hazardous for acute toxicity The U wastes
are listed as hazardous for toxicity. For all of these organo-sulfur wastes
except P022, EPA is promulgating incineration as the method of treatment for
nonwastewaters , and wet-air oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, chemica'
oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, or incineration as methods of
treatment for wastewaters. For P022, EPA is promulgating concentration
standards based on biological treatment, or wet-air oxidation followed by
carbon adsorption for wastewaters, and incineration as the method of trearmer
for nonwastewaters.
As shown in Tables 3-203 through 3-214, only surface-disposed

and U244 wastes were identified as requiring alternative treatment. These
wastes were assigned to a BOAT technology for nonwastewaters based on the
physical form of the waste. EPA has identified that sufficient capacity
exists for surface-disposed P002, P014, P022, P066, P070, P093, U114, U116,
U119, U218, U219, and U224 wastes and deepwell-injected U219 and U244 wastes
requiring alternative treatment capacity. Consequently, EPA is not granting a
two-year national capacity variance for these wastes listed above.
Further analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected or
surface-disposed volumes of P045, P049, P072, P116, U153, and U193 wastes
requiring alternative treatment capacity for this rulemaking. In addition, no
deepwell-injected volumes of P002, P014, P022, P066, P070, P093, U114, U116,
U119, and U218 wastes were reported. Therefore, EPA is not granting a

(reserpine), U202 (saccharin and salts), U203 (safrole), U206
(streptozotocin), and U237 (uracil mustard) are pharmaceutical wastes. The
"P" wastes are listed as hazardous for acute toxicity The "U" wastes are
listed as hazardous for toxicity
For all of these pharmaceutical wastes except U141, U155, U187, and U203,
EPA is proposing to establish incineration as the method of treatment for
nonwastewaters and wet-air oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, chemical
oxidation followed by carbon adsorption, or incineration as methods of
treatment for wastewaters. For U141, U155, U187, and U203, EPA is proposing
BDAT concentration standards based on the performance of incineration for
nonwastewaters, and biological treatment, or wet-air oxidation followed by
carbon adsorption for wastewaters.
As shown in Tables 3-214 through 3-220, only surface-disposed
nonwastewater forms of P075. P108, U010, U202, and U237 wastes and deepwell
injected nonwastewaters forms of P075 and U200 wastes were identified as
requiring alternative treatment. These wastes were assigned to a BDAT
treatment for nonwastewaters based on the physical form of the waste. The
BDAT treatment of these wastes does not normally require treatment of
residuals. One waste stream reported in the data set was a mixed P108 and
arsenic-bearing waste. EPA believes that after the P108 BDAT treatment,
vitrification of the incinerator ash and scrubber water treatment sludge will
be required to meet all of the applicable treatment standards.
3-326
-------
EPA has identified chat sufficient alternative treatment capacity exists
for P075, P108, U010, U202, and U237 waste volumes being surface-disposed and
P075 and U200 waste volumes being deep-well injected. Consequently, EPA is
not granting a two-year capacity variance for any of these wastes.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected or surface-
disposed volumes of P007, P042, U015, U035, U059, U089, U090, U141, U143,

3.5 Potentially Reactive P and U Wastes
These wastes are either highly reactive or explosive, or are polymers
that also tend to be highly reactive For the purpose of BDAT determinations
EPA has identified four subcategories: incinerable reactive organics and
hydrazine derivatives, incinerable inorganics, fluorine compounds, and
recoverable metallic compounds
3.5.1 Incinerable Reactive Organics and Hydrazine Derivatives
P009. P068, P081, P105, P112, U023, U086, U096, U098, U099,
U103, U109, U133, and U160
RCRA hazardous wastes P009 (ammonium picrate (R)), P068 (methyl
hydrazine), P081 (nitroglycerine (R)), P105 (sodium azide), and P112
(tetranitromethane (R)) are reactive organics listed as hazardous for acute
toxicity. RCRA hazardous wastes U023 (benzotrichloride (C,R,T)), U086 (n,n-
dimethylhydrazine), U096 (a,a-dimethyl benzyl hydroperoxide (R)), U098 (1,1
dimethylhydrazine), U099 (1,2-dimethylhydrazine), U103 (dimethyl sulfate),
U109 (1,2-diphenylhydra- zine), U133 (hydrazine), and U160 (methyl ethyl
ketone peroxide) are reactive organics listed as hazardous for toxicity EPA
is promulgating the use of incineration, fuel substitution, chemical
oxidation, or chemical reduction as methods of treatment for nonwastewaters,
and carbon adsorption, incineration, chemical oxidation, chemical reduction,
or biodegradation as methods of treatment for wastewaters, rather than
establishing concentration-based standards.
As shown in Tables 3-221 through 3-226, only volumes of P081, P105, U103,
U109, and U133 wastes surface-disposed, and U103, U133, and U160 wastes being
deep-well injected were identified from the data set as requiring alternative
treatment. These wastes were assigned to a BDAT technology based on the
physical form of the waste and whether it was a wastewater or nonwastewater.
Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for these wastes
being surface-disposed or deep-well injected.
During the capacity analysis for the proposed Third Third rule, EPA
identified several large volumes of P and U coded wastes reported as deepwell
injected in the TSDR Survey EPA contacted the firms reporting these large
streams to further characterize the generation and current management of these
3-334
-------
large volumes Specifically, EPA wanted to determine if these large streams
were actually generated as small volumes of hazardous wastes and subsequently
mixed with large volumes of other wastes.
A deepwell injected volume of 124 million gallons per year containing
U133 was reported in the TSDR Survey Follow-up conversations with the
facility reporting this waste stream indicated that the stream was a mixture
containing a small unknown fraction of U133. Based on this information, EPA
assumed that 100,000 gallons per year was a reasonable estimate of the volume
of U133 generated prior to mixing with other wastes. Because the land
disposal restrictions apply to wastes at the point of generation, EPA used the
100,000 gallons per year estimate as the required alternative treatment
capacity for the U133 contained in this mixed waste stream. A discussion on
this methodology is included in section 3.0.
Further analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected or
surface-disposed volumes of P009, P068, P112, U023, U086, U096, U098, and U099
wastes requiring alternative treatment capacity for this rulemaking.
Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity variance for these wastes

352 Incinerable Inorganics P006. P096, P122, U135, U189. and U249
RCRA hazardous wastes P006 (aluminum phosphide), P096 (phosphine), P122
(zinc phosphide, >10%), U135 (hydrogen sulfide), U189 (phosphorus sulfide),
and U249 (zinc phosphide <10%) are incinerable inorganic wastes. The P wastes
are listed as hazardous for acute toxicity. The U wastes are listed as
hazardous for toxicity For incinerable inorganic wastes, EPA is promulgating
methods of treatment based on incineration, chemical oxidation, or chemical
reduction for wastewaters and nonwastewaters
As shown in Tables 3-227 through 3-229, only small volumes of P006 and
U249 surface-disposed wastes and P122 deepwell-injected wastes were identified
from the data set as requiring alternative treatment. EPA has identified
sufficient capacity exists for these wastes and is not granting a national
capacity variance for them.
Based on the data set, EPA has identified that adequate treatment
capacity exists for P122 wastes being deepwell-injected. Because EPA is
promulgating a capacity variance for D003 reactive sulfides being deep-well
injected, EPA believes adequate treatment capacity is available for the small
quantity of P122 wastewaters being deep-well injected. Therefore, EPA is
restricting these P122 wastes from underground injection on May 8, 1990.
Further analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected volumes of
P006, P096, U135, U189, and U249 or surface-disposed volumes of P096, P122.

3.5.3 Fluorine Compounds P056 and U134
RCRA hazardous wastes P056 (fluorine) and U134 (hydrofluoric acid) are
fluorine compounds. P056 is listed as hazardous for acute toxicity U134 is
listed as hazardous for toxicity EPA is promulgating concentration standards
based on chemical precipitation for P056 and U134 wastewaters For P056
nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating adsorption followed by neutralization as
the method of treatment. For U134 nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating
neutralization or adsorption followed by neutralization as methods of
treatment
As shown in Tables 3-230 and 3-231, the deepwell-injected P056 and
deepwell-injected and surface-disposed U134 wastes requiring alternative
treatment have been assigned to their BOAT. Although P056 and U134 wastes
must undergo the assigned BOAT method of treatment, EPA believes that one
mixed U134 waste stream reported in the data set will require additional
treatment in order to meet all applicable treatment standards.
i
Based on the data set, EPA believes that adequate alternative treatment
capacity exists for the deepwell-injected and surface-disposed U134 and
deepwell-injected P056 wastes. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national
capacity variance for these wastes.

3.5.4 Recoverable Metallics P015, P073, and P087
RCRA hazardous wastes P015 (beryllium dust), P073 (nickel carbonyl), and
P087 (osmium oxide) are recoverable metallic compounds that are listed as
hazardous for acute toxicity. Tables 3-232 through 3-234 presents the
surface-disposed volumes of these wastes. EPA is promulgating thermal
recovery or metals recovery as methods of treatment for P015 wastewaters and
nonwastewaters, rather than concentration-based standards. For P073
wastewaters EPA is promulgating concentration standards based on incineration
or chemical oxidation; for P073 nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating
concentration standards based on stabilization. For P087 wastewaters and
nonwastewaters, EPA is promulgating recovery as the method of treatment. In
the proposed rule, EPA proposed to grant a national capacity variance for
surface disposed P015 and P073 nonwastewaters. In the final rule, EPA has
determined that there is adequate alternative treatment capacity available for
P015 and P073 wastes. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity
variance for P015, and P073 wastes that are being surface-disposed in today's
final rule. EPA has determined that there is not sufficient treatment
capacity for P087 wastewaters and nonwastewaters, and is granting these wastes
a national capacity variance. No deepwell-injected volumes were reported for
any of these wastes. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity
variance for deepwell-disposed wastes.

requiring alternative treatment capacity for this rulemaking. In the proposed
rule, EPA stated that it did not believe that U115 wastes were being deepwell-
injected. During the public comment period, commenters indicated that U115 is
deepwell-injected. EPA has reviewed these data and agrees. Based on the data
set, EPA has identified that there is adequate capacity for the deepwell-
injected volume of U115 wastewaters requiring alternative treatment.
Therefore, EPA is not granting a two-year national capacity variance for this
waste. No deepwell-injected or surface-disposed volumes of P076 or P078, and
surface disposal U115 were reported in the data set. Therefore, EPA is not
granting a variance for wastes.

3.7 P and U Waste Codes Containing Cyanides P031, P033. and U246
RCRA hazardous wastes P031 (Cyanogen), P033 (Cyanogen chloride), and U246
(Cyanogen bromide) are listed for their toxicity EPA is promulgating
incineration, chemical oxidation, or wet-air oxidation as methods of treatment
for amenable and total cyanides for both wastewater and nonwastewater forms of
these three wastes. EPA is promulgating a technology rather than
concentration-based standards because of the high toxicity of these wastes and
the imprecision of the analytical method for these wastes.
The quantity of surface-disposed P031 requiring alternative treatment is
shown in Table 3-236 as being treated by the BOAT technology. Based on the
data set, EPA has identified that there is sufficient treatment capacity for
surface-disposed P031. Therefore, EPA is not granting a national capacity
variance for this waste.
Analysis of the data set revealed no deepwell-injected volumes of P031,
P033, and U246 wastes or surface-disposed P033 and U246 wastes requiring
alternative treatment capacity for this rulemaking. Therefore, EPA is not
granting a national capacity variance for these deepwell-injected and surface -
disposed wastes.

3.8 Contaminated Soils
Because of the unique treatability and regulatory issues associated with
contaminated soils, such soils have been handled separately in this document.
Table 3-237 presents estimates based on TSDR Survey data of the total volume
of contaminated soils land disposed at Subtitle C. 'facilities , as well as a
breakdown of the total volume land disposed per regulatory group, including
the waste affected by today's final rule. Contaminated soils were identified
by the waste description code associated with each waste stream and do not
include contaminated debris unless specifically indicated by the facility.
The TSDR Survey contains data only on the volume of contaminated soils land
disposed, not on the volume generated. Furthermore, no data are available on
the source generating the waste volume being land disposed (e.g., corrective
actions, spill cleanups, etc.) Appendix F presents the results of the
analysis of required capacity for each alternative technology for contaminated
soils .
Available capacity was first assigned to the nonsoil land disposed wastes
analyzed in this document (i.e., solvent, HOCs , First Third promulgated
wastes, Second Third promulgated wastes, and Third Third proposed wastes)
The remaining capacity was then used as available capacity for contaminated
soils Table 3-238 presents the results of the capacity analyses conducted
for soils contaminated with proposed Third Third wastes. Tables 3-239 through
3-314 present waste code-by-waste code analysis of the treatment capacitv
required by soils contaminated with promulgated Third Third wastes.
Analysis of the TSDR Survey data indicated that relatively small -.•o.u
of soil contaminated with promulgated Third Third wastes were land disposed in
1986. However, the Superfund remediation program has expanded signif lean: .v
since that time. An incineration capacity analysis conducted by EPA ?d
12)' indicates that the amount of contaminated soils being sent to off-s::e
incineration will probably be higher in 1989 and 1990 than in 1986 This
capacity analysis was based on information from the EPA Hazardous Sire _or:r:-.

-------
Division (Ref. 13)2 EPA believes chat capacity is still inadequate for
incineration of soils contaminated with Third Third wastes because of the
major increase in the Superfund remediation program. The analysis of
combustion capacity for sludges and solids indicates that capacity has
increased significantly in 1990. However, much of the new available capacity-
is for reuse as fuel at kilns, and thus would not be appropriate for soil and
debris. Specifically, the analysis of 1986 land disposal of soil and debris
indicates that about 8 million gallons of Third Third wastes needing
incineration were land disposed. Analysis of Superfund plans indicated an
additional 6 to 60 million gallons of wa--es needing commercial incineration,
depending on use of on-site versus off-site incineration capacity. (If only
ten percent of wastes is sent off-site, six million gallons of capacity are
needed, if 100 percent is sent off-site the demand for commercial capacity
could increase to 60 million) The analysis of available combustion capacity,
after providing for Third Third wastes not receiving a variance, is 22 million
gallons. However, most of this capacity is for reuse as fuel at cement kilns
and appropriate for soil and debris. Therefore, EPA is granting a two-year
national capacity variance from the effective date of this rule for soils ,
contaminated with certain First, Second, and Third Third wastes requiring
incineration.
In addition to incineration, capacity shortfalls also exist for
contaminated soils whose treatment standard is based on mercury retorting, or
vitrification. Consequently, EPA is granting a two-year national capacity
variance to soils contaminated with certain First, Second, and Third Third
wastes whose BDAT is based on mercury retorting, or vitrification.
EPA has established an inorganic solids debris treatability group based
on the comments received, which requested clarification on the appropriate
treatment for D004 through D011 characteristic metal wastes that are
identified as slags, glass, concrete, bricks, and other inorganic solid
debris. Wastes in this treatability group are defined as follows: nonfriable
inorganic solids that are incapable of passing through a 9.5-mm standard sieve
that require crushing, grinding, or cutting in mechanical sizing equipment

prior co stabilization, limited to the following inorganic or metal materials
(1) metal slags (either dross or scoria); (2) glassified slag; (3) glass; (4)
concrete (excluding cementitious or pozzolanic stabilized hazardous wastes);
(5) masonry and refractory bricks; (6) metal cans, containers, drums, or
tanks: (7) metal nuts, bolts, pipes, pumps, valves, appliances, or industrial
equipment; and (8) "scrap metal" according to 40 CFR 261.1(c)(6)
Total volume of debris contaminated with D004 through D011 wastes,
according to the TSDR Survey, is approximately 2.2 million gallons/year.
There is no classification in the TSDR Survey for inorganic solids debris.
However, the comment letters EPA received indicated that the volume of these
wastes is significant. Because there is inadequate treatment capacity for
inorganic solid debris contaminated with D004 through D011 wastes, EPA is
granting a national capacity variance for these wastes.
