Conference Call with DuPont for Docket

December 20, 2005

On Tuesday December 20, 2005, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) had
a conference call with Joseph Peterpaul of DuPont from 2:00 pm to 3:00
pm. The purpose of the call was to learn about DuPont’s practices for
recycling secondary materials they produce and auditing waste and
recycling facilities. This information will be used to facilitate an
analysis of overall good hazardous waste recycling practices for a DSW
rulemaking. The call focused on what information DuPont examines in a
waste or recycling audit, such as the facility’s processing
capacities, its compliance history, the history of the site, and the
company’s financial profile; the reasons why DuPont performs audits;
tracking procedures; and the general workings of “sourcing”
agreements between DuPont and recyclers that accept secondary materials,
reclaim them, and send them back to DuPont to be used again.
