EPA is taking direct final action on a petition submitted by Bekaert Steel, Dyersburg, Tennessee ("Bekaert"), to exclude (or "delist" a certain hazardous waste from the lists of hazardous wastes. Bekaert will generate the petitioned waste by treating wastewater from Bekaert's steel plant, copper electroplating area where steel wire is used to manufacture copper and zinc coated steel wire for the tire industry. The waste so generated is a wastewater treatment sludge that meets the definition of F006. Bekaert petitioned EPA to grant a generator-specific delisting, because Bekaert believes that its F006 waste does not meet the criteria for which this type of waste was listed. EPA reviewed all of the waste-specific information provided by Bekaert, performed calculations, and determined that the waste could be disposed in a landfill without harming human health and the environment. This action responds to Bekaert's petition to delist this waste on a "generator-specific" basis from the hazardous waste lists, and the approved delisting petition for the Bekaert, Rogers, Arkansas facility which utilizes an identical process. EPA took into account the final delisting levels which are based on the EPACML model as performed by Region 6. Unless adverse comments are received with sixty days of this Direct Final Rule and in accordance with the conditions specified in this final rule, Bekaert's petitioned waste is excluded from the requirements of hazardous waste regulations under Subtitle C of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).
