Disposal Restrictions: Site-Specific Treatment Standard Variance for Selenium
Waste for Chemical Waste Management, Chemical Services, LLC; Withdrawal
of Direct Final Rule (PDF) (2 pp, 175K About PDF)
Abstract: On November 19, 2004, the Environmental Protection Agency
published a direct final rule to grant a site-specific treatment standard
variance from the Land Disposal Restrictions (LDR) treatment standards
to Chemical Waste Management, Chemical Services LLC (CWM) in Model City,
New York. EPA also published an accompanying proposed rule to supplant
this rule in the event EPA received any adverse comment on the direct
final rule. This variance is for a selenium-bearing hazardous waste generated
by Guardian Industries Corp. (Guardian), a glass manufacturing company.
EPA has received a comment on this treatment variance that it deems adverse,
and is withdrawing the direct final rule. Therefore, this site-specific
treatment standard variance will not take effect on January 3, 2005 and
CWM cannot treat the Guardian waste under a treatment standard variance.
EPA will review and address all the comments received on this variance
and will decide what action to take in a future Federal Register document.
We will not institute a second comment period on this action.

Disposal Restrictions: Site-Specific Treatment Standard Variance for Selenium
Waste for Chemical Waste Management, Chemical Services, LLC; Direct Final
Rule (PDF) (8 pp, 207K About PDF)
Abstract: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or Agency) is
granting a site-specific treatment standard variance from the Land Disposal
Restrictions (LDR) treatment standards for a selenium-bearing hazardous
waste generated by the glass manufacturing industry to CWM Chemical Services
LLC (CWM (Model City, NY)) to stabilize a selenium-bearing hazardous waste
generated by Guardian Industries Corp. (Guardian) at their RCRA permitted
facility in Model City, New York. EPA is granting this variance because
the chemical properties of the waste differ significantly from those of
the waste used to establish the current LDR treatment standard for selenium
(5.7 mg/L, as measured by the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure
(TCLP)), and the petition has adequately demonstrated that the waste cannot
be treated to meet this treatment standard.
