Meeting Summary: Meeting with the Auto Alliance and Industry
Representatives

February 27, 2007;  1:30 – 2:30 PM at EPA’s Office of Solid Waste

Representatives from the Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of
Solid Waste (OSW) and the Office of General Counsel (OGC) met with
representatives of the motor vehicle manufacturing companies and the
Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers (AAM) at their request.  The
meeting related to the proposed rule for an amendment to Hazardous Waste
Code F019.  The list of meeting attendees is shown below.  The industry
representatives indicated general support for the proposed rule and
stated that they planned to submit written comments during the comment
period.  Industry representatives also indicated that they were
considering the feasibility of changing the conversion coating process
in the future and discussed with EPA whether the F019 exemption might be
expanded at some point to include this new process.  Industry did not
provide any details of the process, and EPA representatives indicated
that a variety of data would be needed for any ultimate decision.  EPA
representatives described the complexities and uncertainties of the
rule-making process, and indicated that the Agency would consider
possible rule-making options when sufficient data are provided.
