Hazardous Waste Management System: Land Disposal Restrictions
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of proposed approval of application to extend the
approved Case-by-Case Extension of Land Disposal Restrictions Effective
Date.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is today proposing approval of the application submitted
by Great Lakes Chemical Corporation (Great Lakes), requesting an
extension to the June 30, 1995, extended date of the RCRA land disposal
restrictions (LDR) treatment standards applicable to wastewaters with
the hazardous wastes codes K117, K118, K131, K132, and F039. To be
granted such a request, the applicant must demonstrate, among other
things, that there is insufficient capacity to manage its waste and has
entered into a binding contractual commitment to construct or otherwise
[[Page 27524]] provide such capacity, but due to circumstances beyond
its control, such capacity could not reasonably be made available by
the effective date. Great Lakes adequately met these requirements and
was granted an initial Case-By-Case Extension for one year effective
June 30, 1994 to June 30, 1995, with the option to renew this extension
for up to one additional year (see FR 5151-3). Based on the Case-By-
Case extension provisions and request by Great Lakes to extend the ban
date, Great Lakes will be allowed, upon final approval to land dispose
of its K117, K118, K131, K132, AND F039 wastes upon final approval,
until September 30, 1995, without being subject to the land disposal
restrictions applicable to such wastes. Final Approval of this
extension, will only be valid for injection into Well Nos. 5 and 6.
EFFECTIVE DATE: This approved extension of the LDR effective date
becomes effective May 11, 1995.
