Abstract
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving the State of Idaho's request to implement and enforce the Federal Plan Requirements for Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerators (HMIWI) Constructed on or before December 1, 2008 (the Federal Plan). The Federal Plan establishes emission limits, monitoring, and other requirements for certain existing HMIWI units. The EPA and the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (IDEQ) entered into a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA), effective November 7, 2014, documenting the policies, responsibilities, and procedures the IDEQ will follow, as well as the authorities retained by the EPA.
