Hazardous Waste Management System; Final Exclusion for Identifying and Listing Hazardous Waste
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) (also, ``the Agency'' or ``we'' in this preamble) is taking final action to finalize technical amendments to an existing exclusion from the list of federal hazardous waste (delisting) issued to the United States Department of Energy (Energy) under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. These modifications address changes to the 200-Area Effluent Treatment System associated with the delisting necessary to accept liquid effluents expected to be generated from vitrification of certain low-activity mixed wastes at the Hanford Federal Facility, or Hanford Site, in Richland, Washington.
