Regulatory Impact Analysis of the Final Phase IV LDRs Final Rule for Newly Identified Wood Preserving
This file contains the regulatory impact analysis (RIA) for newly identified wood preserving listed hazardous wastes in the Phase IV Land Disposal Restrictions Final Rule. The RIA provides the reader with information regarding the costs, economic impacts and benefits for the newly listed wood preserving hazardous wastes, F032, F034 and F035 resulting from treatment standards promulgated under the Phase IV Final Rule.Documents

Economic Impact Assessment of the Phase IV LDRs Final Rule on Newly Identified Wood Preserving Hazardous Wastes Contaminated Media at Inactive and Abandoned Wood Preserving Sites
This file contains the economic impact analysis for newly identified wood preserving listed hazardous wastes in the Phase IV Land Disposal Restriction Final Rule. It provides the reader with information regarding the costs, economic impacts and benefits for the newly listed wood preserving hazardous wastes, F032, F034 and F035 resulting from treatment standards promulgated under the Phase IV Final Rule.Documents
Best Demonstrated Available Technology (BDAT) Background Document for Wood Preserving Wastes - F032, F034, and F035
This report is the final BDAT background document for F032, F034, and F035 (wood preserving hazardous wastes) that supports the establishment of Land Disposal Restrictions (LDR) treatment standards for constituents in these hazardous wastes. This report is a revised version of the document appearing in the proposed rule docket. Revisions address public comments and present EPA's rationale for promulgation of an alternative treatment standard of CMBST for F032 wastes. In addition, new appendices developed to accompany the final background document include Appendix K (Summary of Newly Submitted and Proposed Rule Data for Wood Preserving Raw Materials and Wastewater and Nonwastewater Forms of F032, F034, and F035), Appendix L (Documents Supporting EPA's Promulgation of CMBST Alternative Treatment Standard for F032), and Appendix M (Expanded List of References Evaluated for Wood Preserving Wastes).Documents

Capacity Analysis Background Document for LDRs - Wood Preserving Wastes (Final Rule): Capacity Analysis and Response to Capacity Related Comments
The section presents the capacity analysis that EPA conducted to support the Phase IV Land disposal Restrictions (LDRs) rulemaking on newly listed wastes from wood preserving industry. EPA conducts capacity analyses to determine the effective dates to the LDR treatment standards and evaluate the need for national capacity variances from the land disposal prohibitions. The capacity analysis provides estimates of the quantities of wastes requiring alternative commercial treatment as a result of the LDRs and estimates alternative commercial treatment capacity available to manage the restricted wastes. The document includes data sources and the methodology used for the capacity analysis, and appendices detailing the data and information used for the capacity analysis.Documents
