The following documents were prepared in support of EPA's development of the March 31, 1999 Report to Congress on Wastes from the Combustion of Fossil Fuels.

Technical Background Document for the Supplemental Report to Congress on Remaining Fossil Fuel Combustion Wastes: Existing State Regulatory Controls (PDF) (39 pp, 115K)
This document describes the regulations and controls that the states have in place that govern the management of fossil fuel combustion wastes. (1999)

Technical Background Document for the Supplemental Report to Congress on Remaining Fossil Fuel Combustion Wastes: Potential Damage Cases (PDF) (21 pp, 59K)
This document describes individual fossil fuel waste management cases that the Agency considered to be candidates for damages cases for the purposes of the Report to Congress. (1999)

Technical Background Document for the Supplemental Report to Congress on Remaining Fossil Fuel Combustion Wastes: Industry Statistics and Waste Management Practices (PDF) (61 pp, 591K)
This document presents industry profile information for fossil fuel combustors and describes the practices that are currently used to manage fossil fuel combustion wastes. (1999)

Technical Background Document for the Supplemental Report to Congress on Remaining Fossil Fuel Combustion Wastes: Waste Characterization (PDF) (54 pp, 233K)
This document presents chemical characterization data on fossil fuel combustion wastes. (1999)

Technical Background Document for the Supplemental Report to Congress on Remaining Fossil Fuel Combustion Wastes: Cost and Economic Impact Analysis (PDF) (50 pp, 164K)
This document presents EPA's compliance costs and associated economic impacts of various regulatory options for the management of fossil fuel combustion wastes by several categories of fossil fuel burners. (1999)

Summary of CMTP Sensitivity to Changes in Kd (PDF) (4 pp, 24K)
This document presents an analysis of retardation and sorption for metals species in the EPA CMTP model. (1999)

Non-groundwater Pathways, Human Health and Ecological Risk Analysis for Fossil Fuel Combustion Phase 2 (FFC2); Draft Final Report (PDF) (139 pp, 654K)
This document presents EPA's analysis of human health and ecological risks from the management of fossil fuel combustion wastes. This draft final report also serves as the final version of the document. (1998)

Technical Background Document for the Supplemental Report to Congress on Remaining Fossil Fuel Combustion Wastes: Ground-water Pathway Human Health Risk Assessment (PDF) (247 pp, 1.2MB)
This document describes and supports the human health risk analysis that was used to develop the Report to Congress. In particular, it addresses groundwater pathway risks. (1998)

Fossil Fuel Combustion Waste Risk Assessment: Revised Groundwater Analysis and Sensitivity Results (PDF) (58 pp, 2.5MB)
This document describes and supports the human health risk analysis that was used to develop the Report to Congress. In particular, it addresses groundwater pathway risks and sensitivity analyses of groundwater pathway modeling. (1998)
