Underground Injection Control Program; Hazardous Waste Injection
Restrictions; Petition for Exemption--Class I Hazardous Waste
Injection; CECOS International, Inc. (CECOS)
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of final decision on petition modification.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that modification of an exemption to
the land disposal restrictions under the 1984 Hazardous and Solid Waste
Amendments to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act has been
granted to CECOS, for the Class I injection well located at Sulphur,
Louisiana. As required by 40 CFR part 148, the company has adequately
demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Environmental Protection Agency
by petition and supporting documentation that, to a reasonable degree
of certainty, there will be no migration of hazardous constituents from
the injection zone for as long as the waste remains hazardous. This
final decision allows the underground injection by CECOS, of the
specific restricted hazardous waste identified in the exemption
modification, into the Class I hazardous waste injection well at the
Sulphur, Louisiana facility specifically identified in the modified
exemption, for as long as the basis for granting an approval of this
exemption remains valid, under provisions of 40 CFR 148.24. As required
by 40 CFR 124.10, a public document was issued July 31, 1997, and
closed on September 15, 1997. No comments were received. This decision
constitutes final Agency action and there is no Administrative appeal.
DATES: This action is effective as of October 28,1997.
