Underground Injection Control Program; Hazardous Waste Injection 
Restrictions; Petition for Exemption Reissuance--Class I Hazardous 
Waste Injection; INEOS Nitriles USA LLC (INEOS)--Green Lake Complex, 
Port Lavaca, Texas

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of a final decision on a no migration petition 
reissuance.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that a reissuance of an exemption to 
the land disposal Restrictions, under the 1984 Hazardous and Solid 
Waste Amendments to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, has 
been granted to INEOS for three Class I hazardous waste injection wells 
located at their Green Lake Complex located in Port Lavaca, Texas. The 
company has adequately demonstrated to the satisfaction of the 
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) by the petition reissuance 
application and supporting documentation that, to a reasonable degree 
of certainty, there will be no migration of hazardous constituents from 
the injection zone for as long as the waste remains hazardous. This 
final decision allows the underground injection by INEOS, of the 
specific restricted hazardous wastes identified in this exemption 
reissuance, into Class I hazardous waste injection Wells WDW-163, WDW-
164, and WDW-165 until December 31, 2028, unless EPA moves to terminate 
this exemption. Additional conditions included in this final decision 
may be reviewed by contacting the Region 6 Ground Water/UIC Section. A 
public notice was issued June 24, 2020, and the public comment period 
closed on August 10, 2020. No comments were received. This decision 
constitutes final Agency action and there is no Administrative appeal. 
This decision may be reviewed/appealed in compliance with the 
Administrative Procedure Act.

DATES: This action is effective as of September 17, 2020.
