Abstract

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is granting a petition submitted by Occidental Chemical Corporation (OxyChem) to exclude (or delist) its wastewater treatment biosludge generated by its Ingleside, Texas facility from the lists of hazardous wastes. This final rule responds to the petition submitted by OxyChem to delist K019, K020, F025, F001, F003, and F005 waste resulting from the treatment of wastewaters from the manufacturing processes at its facility. After careful analysis and use of the Delisting Risk Assessment Software (DRAS), EPA has concluded that the petitioned waste is not hazardous waste. This exclusion applies to 7,500 cubic yards per year of the K019, K020, F025, F001, F003, and F005 waste. Accordingly, this final rule excludes the petitioned waste from the requirements of hazardous waste regulations under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) when it is disposed in a Subtitle D Landfill.
