ACTION:

Notice of a final decision on a UIC no migration petition reissuance.

Notice is hereby given that a reissuance 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 Vopak for one Class I hazardous waste injection well located at their Deer Park, Texas facility.

This final decision allows the underground injection by Vopak of the specific restricted hazardous wastes identified in this exemption reissuance, into Class I hazardous waste injection Well WDW-157 until December 31, 2030, unless EPA moves to terminate this exemption or other petition condition limitations are reached.
