Abstract
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is granting a petition submitted by Tenneco Automotive (Tenneco) to exclude from hazardous waste control (or delist) a certain solid waste. This final rule responds to the petition submitted by Tenneco to delist F006 stabilized sludge on a "generator specific" basis from the lists of hazardous waste. After careful analysis and use of the Delisting Risk Assessment Software, the EPA has concluded the petitioned waste is not hazardous waste when disposed of in Subtitle D landfills. This exclusion applies to 1,800 cubic yards of excavated stabilized waste water treatment sludge currently stored in containment cells at Tenneco's Paragould, Arkansas facility. Accordingly, this final rule excludes the petitioned waste from the requirements of hazardous waste regulations under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) when disposed of in Subtitle D landfills.
