[FRL-5418-8]
Hazardous Waste Management System; Identification and Listing of
Hazardous Waste: Petroleum Refining Process Wastes; Corrections
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is today issuing a
technical correction of the proposed rule published on November 20,
1995 (60 FR 57747). EPA is issuing this technical correction to address
the incorrect proposed treatment standard for a proposed newly
identified hazard waste containing the constituent
dibenz(a,h)anthracene, to restate correctly the self-implementing
provision of the prohibition on land disposal of newly listed and
identified wastes, and to make other typographical corrections.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For general information contact the
RCRA/Superfund Hotline, toll free, at (800)424-9346, or at (703)920-
9810. For technical information concerning this notice, contact Mr.
Maximo Diaz, Office of Solid Waste (5304), U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, 401 M Street, SW., Washington, DC 20460, (202) 260-
4786.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 20, 1995, the EPA proposed the
hazardous listing determination of a number of wastes from the
petroleum refining industry. As part of that action, the Agency
proposed treatment standards for the proposed newly identified
hazardous wastes. For the K170 wastestream, the Agency inadvertently
stated the treatment standard for the constituent dibenz(a,h)anthracene
as .0055 mg/L. The correct concentration of 0.055 mg/L should have
appeared in Table V-1 (page 57787) and in the regulatory text at
Sec. 268.40 (page 57797), and is being corrected to so read.
Under RCRA section 3004(g)(4)(C), additional land disposal
prohibitions for wastes identified under RCRA section 3001 shall take
place by the date six months after the date of such identification or
listing. In accordance with section 3004(g)(4)(C), the effective date
of additional land disposal restrictions on the proposed newly
identified wastes should have indicated six months after the effective
date of the final rule in Sec. 271.1(j) Table 2--Self-Implementing
Provisions of the Solid Waste Amendments of 1984 on page 57799. This
table is being corrected to so read.
Minor typesetting errors appeared on pages 57789 and 57800. On page
57789, the central tendency risks for CSO sediment/solids should have
been expressed as 3 x 10-6, not 3 x 10-9. On page 57800, the
final RQ in Pounds(Kg) for the entry K172 is corrected to read
100(45.4) not ``B100(45.4).''
Dated: January 29, 1996.

Response.
