Underground Injection Control Program; Hazardous Waste Injection
Restrictions; Petition for Exemption--Class I Hazardous Waste
Injection; Disposal Systems of Corpus Christi, Inc., (DSICC)
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice of final decision on petition reissuance.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
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 DSICC, for the Class I injection well located at Corpus
Christi, Texas. 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
DSICC, of the specific restricted hazardous waste identified in the
exemption modification, into the Class I hazardous waste injection well
at the Corpus Christi, Texas 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 notice was issued May 14, 1996. The
public comment period closed on June 28, 1996. EPA received no
comments. This decision constitutes final Agency action and there is no
Administrative appeal.
DATES: This action is effective as of July 3, 1996.
