a)
Title
of
the
Information
Collection
This
Information
Collection
Request
(
ICR)
is
entitled
"
Hazardous
Waste
Management
Requirements
(
HWIR­
Media)
(
Renewal),"
ICR
Number
1775.04.

1(
b)
Short
Characterization
The
Resource
Conservation
and
Recovery
Act
of
1976
(
RCRA),
as
amended,
requires
the
U.
S.
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA)
to
establish
a
national
regulatory
program
to
ensure
that
hazardous
wastes
are
managed
in
a
manner
protective
of
human
health
and
the
environment.
Under
this
program
(
known
as
the
RCRA
Subtitle
C
program),
EPA
regulates
newly
generated
hazardous
wastes,
as
well
as
hazardous
remediation
wastes
(
i.
e.,
hazardous
wastes
managed
during
cleanup).

To
facilitate
prompt
and
protective
treatment,
storage,
and
disposal
of
hazardous
remediation
wastes,
EPA
established
three
requirements
for
remediation
waste
management
sites
that
are
different
from
those
for
facilities
managing
newly
generated
hazardous
waste:

°
Performance
standards
for
remediation
waste
management
sites
at
40
CFR
264.1(
j)
that
replaced
the
detailed
requirements
in
40
CFR
part
264,
subparts
B,
C,
and
D
(
General
Facility
Standards,
Preparedness
and
Prevention,
and
Contingency
Plans
and
Emergency
Procedures);

°
A
provision
excluding
remediation
waste
management
sites
from
RCRA
section
3004(
u)'
s
requirements
for
facility­
wide
corrective
action;
and
°
A
new
form
of
RCRA
permit
for
treating,
storing,
and
disposing
of
hazardous
remediation
wastes
at
40
CFR
part
270,
subpart
H.
The
new
permit,
a
Remedial
Action
Plan
(
RAP),
streamlines
the
permitting
process
for
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
allow
cleanups
to
take
place
more
quickly.

In
addition,
EPA
created
a
new
kind
of
unit
called
a
"
staging
pile"
at
40
CFR
264.554
that
allows
more
flexibility
in
storing
remediation
waste
during
cleanup.

This
ICR
describes
the
requirements
applicable
to
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
at
40
CFR
264.1(
j)
and
part
270,
subpart
H,
as
well
as
the
requirements
for
staging
piles
at
40
CFR
264.554.
It
replaces
the
previously
approved
ICR
on
remediation
waste
management
requirements
(
i.
e.,
ICR
Number
1775.03).
Sections
1
through
5
of
this
ICR
describe

Facilities
other
than
remediation
facilities

comply
with
40
CFR
part
264,
subparts
B,
C,
and
D.
the
specific
information
collection
requirements
(
e.
g.,
from
the
standpoint
of
need,
use,
respondent
activities).
In
Section
6,
EPA
estimates
the
annual
hour
and
cost
burden
to
respondents
and
the
Agency
under
these
requirements,
and
discusses
the
reasons
for
the
change
in
annual
burden
since
the
previously
approved
ICR.

Following
is
a
brief
description
of
the
information
collection
requirements
applicable
to
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites.

(
1)
General
Requirements
for
Hazardous
Remediation
Waste
Management
Sites
Hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
must
comply
with
all
parts
of
40
CFR
part
264
except
subparts
B,
C,
and
D,
and
section
264.101.
In
place
of
the
requirements
in
subparts
B,
C,
and
D,
however,
they
need
to
comply
with
performance
standards
based
on
the
general
requirement
goals
in
these
sections,
which
are
codified
at
40
CFR
264.1(
j).
1
40
CFR
264.1(
j)(
1)
requires
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
obtain
an
EPA
identification
number.

40
CFR
264.1(
j)(
2)
requires
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
obtain
a
detailed
chemical
and
physical
analysis
of
a
representative
sample
of
the
hazardous
remediation
wastes
to
be
managed
at
the
site.
At
a
minimum,
the
waste
analysis
must
contain
all
the
information
that
must
be
known
to
treat,
store
or
disposed
of
the
waste
in
accordance
with
40
CFR
parts
264
and
268,
and
must
be
kept
accurate
and
up
to
date.

40
CFR
264.1(
j)(
4)
requires
owners/
operators
to
inspect
the
remediation
waste
management
site
for
malfunctions,
deterioration,
operator
errors,
and
discharges
that
may
be
causing,
or
may
lead
to,
a
release
of
hazardous
waste
constituents
to
the
environment,
or
a
threat
to
human
health.
The
owner/
operator
must
conduct
these
inspections
often
enough
to
identify
problems
in
time
to
correct
them
before
they
harm
human
health
or
the
environment,
and
must
remedy
the
problem
before
it
leads
to
a
human
health
or
environmental
hazard.
Where
a
hazard
is
imminent
or
has
already
occurred,
the
owner/
operator
must
take
remedial
action
immediately.

Under
40
CFR
264.1(
j)(
7),
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
must
design,
construct,
operate,
and
maintain
units
within
a
100­
year
floodplain
to
prevent
washout
of
any
hazardous
waste
by
a
100­
year
flood,
unless
they
can
meet
the
demonstration
requirements
of
section
264.18(
b).

40
CFR
264.1(
j)(
9)
requires
owners/
operators
to
develop
and
maintain
a
construction
quality
assurance
program
for
all
surface
impoundments,
waste
piles,
and
landfill
units
that
are
required
to
comply
with
sections
264.221(
c)
and
(
d),
264.251(
c)
and
(
d),
and
264.301(
c)
and
(
d)
3
at
the
remediation
waste
management
site,
according
to
the
requirements
of
section
264.19.

40
CFR
264.1(
j)(
10)
requires
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
develop
and
maintain
procedures
to
prevent
accidents.
These
procedures
must
address
proper
design,
construction,
maintenance,
and
operation
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
units
at
the
site.
In
addition,
owners/
operators
must
develop
and
maintain
a
contingency
and
emergency
plan
to
control
accidents
that
occur.
The
plan
must
explain
specifically
how
to
treat,
store,
and
dispose
of
the
hazardous
remediation
waste
in
question,
and
must
be
implemented
immediately
whenever
fire,
explosion,
or
release
of
hazardous
waste
or
hazardous
waste
constituents
that
could
threaten
human
health
or
the
environment.

40
CFR
264.1(
j)(
12)
requires
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
develop,
maintain,
and
implement
a
plan
to
meet
the
requirements
in
sections
264.1(
j)(
2)
through
(
j)(
6)
and
sections
264.1(
j)(
9)
through
(
j)(
10).

40
CFR
264.1(
j)(
13)
requires
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
maintain
records
documenting
compliance
with
sections
264.1(
j)(
1)
through
(
j)(
12).
Under
40
CFR
264.73(
b)(
17),
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
are
required
to
record,
as
it
becomes
available,
and
maintain
in
the
operating
record
any
records
required
under
section
264.1(
j)(
13).

(
2)
Requirements
for
Staging
Piles
A
staging
pile
is
an
accumulation
of
remediation
waste
that
is
not
a
containment
building
and
is
used
only
during
remedial
operations
for
temporary
storage
at
a
facility.
A
staging
pile
is
not
subject
to
land
disposal
restrictions
or
minimum
technology
requirements
and
must
be
used
as
part
of
an
approved
RCRA
permit,
RAP,
closure
plan,
or
corrective
action
order
issued
under
section
3008(
h)
of
RCRA.

Under
40
CFR
264.554(
c)(
1),
owners/
operators
seeking
staging
pile
designations
must
provide
sufficient
and
accurate
information
to
enable
the
Director
to
impose
standards
and
design
criteria
for
the
staging
pile.
In
addition,
under
section
264.554(
c)(
2),
the
owner/
operator
must
provide
a
certification
by
an
independent,
qualified,
registered
professional
engineer
for
technical
data
(
e.
g.,
design
drawings
and
specifications,
engineering
studies),
unless
the
Director
determines,
based
on
information
provided
by
the
owner/
operator,
that
the
certification
is
not
necessary
to
ensure
that
the
staging
pile
will
protect
human
health
and
the
environment.
Finally,
under
section
264.554(
c)(
3),
the
owner/
operator
must
provide
any
additional
information
the
Director
determines
is
necessary
to
protect
human
health
and
the
environment.

As
provided
under
40
CFR
264.554(
d)(
1)(
iii),
a
staging
pile
must
not
operate
for
more
than
two
years,
except
when
the
Director
grants
an
operating
term
extension
under
section
264.554(
i).
The
owner/
operator
must
measure
the
two­
year
limit,
or
other
operating
term
specified
by
the
Director
in
the
permit,
closure
plan,
or
order,
from
the
first
time
remediation
4
waste
is
placed
into
the
staging
pile.
The
owner/
operator
must
maintain
a
record
of
the
date
when
remediation
waste
was
first
placed
into
the
staging
pile
for
the
life
of
the
permit,
order,
or
approved
closure
plan,
or
for
three
years,
whichever
is
longer.

Under
40
CFR
264.554(
i)(
1),
the
Director
may
grant
one
operating
term
extension
for
a
staging
pile
of
up
to
180
days
beyond
the
operating
term
limit
contained
in
the
permit,
closure
plan,
or
order.
To
obtain
an
extension,
owners/
operators
must
document
that
an
extension
will
not
pose
a
threat
to
human
health
and
the
environment
and
is
necessary
to
ensure
timely
and
efficient
implementation
of
remedial
actions
at
the
facility.

40
CFR
264.554(
k)
provides
that,
within
180
days
after
the
operating
term
of
the
staging
pile
expires,
owners/
operators
must
close
a
staging
pile
located
in
an
uncontaminated
area
of
the
site
in
accordance
with
sections
264.258(
a)
and
265.258(
a)
and
sections
264.111
and
265.111
(
i.

40
CFR
264.554(
l)
specifies
procedures
for
incorporating
staging
piles
into
existing
permits
(
including
RAPs),
closure
plans,
or
orders.
Pursuant
to
section
264.554(
l)(
1),
a
permit,
other
than
a
RAP,
may
be
modified
to
incorporate
a
staging
pile
or
staging
pile
operating
term
extension
as
part
of
an
Agency­
initiated
permit
modification
under
section
270.41or
as
part
of
an
owner/
operator
initiated
Class

Remedial
Action
Plans
40
CFR
270.80(
a)
defines
a
RAP
as
a
special
form
of
RCRA
permit
that
an
owner/
operator
of
a
remediation
waste
management
site
may
obtain,
instead
of
a
permit
issued
under
sections
270.3
through
270.66,
to
treat,
store,
or
dispose
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
at
a
remediation
waste
management
site.

Under
40
CFR
270.85(
a),
whenever
an
owner/
operator
treats,
stores,
or
disposes
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
in
a
manner
that
requires
a
RCRA
permit
under
section
270.1,
the
owner/
operator
must
either
obtain
a
RCRA
permit
or
a
RAP.

Under
40
CFR
270.85(
c),
an
owner/
operator
may
obtain
a
RAP
for
managing
hazardous
remediation
waste
at
an
already
permitted
RCRA
facility.
This
RAP
must
be
approved
as
a
modification
to
the
existing
permit
according
to
the
requirements
of
section
270.41
or
section
5
270.42.
However,
when
the
owner/
operator
submits
an
application
for
such
modification,
the
information
requirements
in
section
270.42(
a)(
1)(
i),
(
b)(
1)(
iv),
and
(
c)(
1)(
iv)
do
not
apply;
instead,
the
owner/
operator
must
submit
the
information
required
under
section
270.110.
When
the
permit
is
modified,
the
RAP
becomes
part
of
the
RCRA
permit.

Under
40
CFR
270.95,
an
owner/
operator
may
apply
for
a
RAP
by
completing
an
application,
signing
it,
and
submitting
it
to
the
Director.

40
CFR
270.100
provides
that,
when
a
facility
or
remediation
waste
management
site
is
owned
by
one
person,
but
the
treatment,
storage,
or
disposal
activities
are
operated
by
another
person,
it
is
the
operator's
duty
to
obtain
a
RAP.
Under
section
270.105,
both
the
owner
and
the
operator
must
sign
the
RAP
application
and
any
required
reports
according
to
sections
270.11(
a)
through
(
c).
In
addition,
both
the
owner
and
the
operator
must
also
make
the
certification
required
under
section
270.11(
d)(
1).
However,
the
owner
may
choose
the
alternative
certification
under
section
270.11(
d)(
2)
if
the
operator
certifies
under
section
270.11(
d)(
1).

The
RAP
application
must
include
all
the
information
specified
in
section
270.110.
Under
section
270.115,
an
owner/
operator
may
claim
as
confidential
any
or
all
of
the
information
he
submits
to
EPA.
Any
such
claim
must
be
asserted
at
the
time
he
submits
his
RAP
application
or
other
submissions
by
stamping
the
words
"
confidential
business
information"
on
each
page
containing
such
information.
The
owner/
operator
must
submit
the
RAP
application
to
the
Director
for
approval
(
§
270.120).
If
the
RAP
application
is
submitted
as
part
of
another
document,
he
must
clearly
identify
the
components
of
that
document
that
constitute
the
RAP
application
(
§
270.125).

40
CFR
270.130(
b)
provides
that,
if
the
Director
tentatively
finds
that
a
RAP
application
does
not
include
all
of
the
information
requested
in
section
270.110
or
that
the
proposed
remediation
waste
management
activities
do
not
meet
the
regulatory
standards,
the
Director
may
request
additional
information
from
the
owner/
operator
or
ask
the
owner/
operator
to
correct
deficiencies
in
his
application.

Under
40
CFR
270.170,
the
Director
must
specify
in
a
RAP,
either
directly
or
by
reference,
procedures
for
future
modifications,
revocations
and
reissuance,
or
termination
of
the
RAP.
These
procedures
must
provide
adequate
opportunities
for
public
review
and
comment
on
any
modification,
revocation
and
reissuance,
or
termination
that
would
significantly
change
the
management
of
the
remediation
waste,
or
that
otherwise
merits
public
review
and
comment.

If
the
RAP
has
been
incorporated
into
a
traditional
RCRA
permit,
as
allowed
under
section
270.85(
c),
then
the
RAP
will
be
modified
according
to
the
applicable
requirements
in
sections
270.40
through
270.42,
revoked
and
reissued
according
to
the
applicable
requirements
in
sections
270.41
and
270.43,
or
terminated
according
to
applicable
requirements
of
section
270.43.
6
Under
40
CFR
270.195,
RAPs
must
be
issued
for
a
fixed
term,
not
to
exceed
ten
years,
although
they
may
be
renewed
upon
approval
by
the
Director
in
fixed
increments
of
no
more
than
ten
years.
Under
section
270.200,
if
an
owner/
operator
wishes
to
renew
his
expiring
RAP,
he
must
follow
the
process
for
application
for
and
issuance
of
RAPs.

40
CFR
270.210
requires
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
keep
records
concerning
their
RAP.
All
records
must
be
kept
for
a
period
of
at
least
three
years
from
the
date
the
RAP
application
is
signed.

Under
40
CFR
270.220(
a),
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
may
transfer
their
RAPs
to
new
owners/
operators.
To
transfer
the
RAP,
owners/
operators
must
follow
the
requirements
specified
in
their
RAP
for
RAP
modification
to
identify
the
new
owner/
operator,
and
incorporate
any
other
necessary
requirements.
The
new
owner/
operator
must
submit
a
revised
RAP
application
no
later
than
90
days
before
the
scheduled
change
along
with
a
written
agreement
containing
a
specific
date
for
transfer
of
RAP
responsibility
between
the
owner/
operator
and
the
new
permittees.

Under
40
CFR
270.220(
b),
when
a
transfer
of
ownership
occurs,
the
old
owner/
operator
must
comply
with
applicable
requirements
of
40
CFR
part
264,
subpart
H,
until
the
new
owner/
operator
has
demonstrated
compliance
(
i.
e.,
within
six
months
of
the
date
of
the
change).

Under
40
CFR
270.230(
a),
owners/
operators
may
request
a
RAP
for
remediation
waste
management
activities
at
a
location
removed
from
the
area
where
the
remediation
wastes
originated
if
they
believe
such
a
location
would
be
more
protective
than
the
contaminated
area
or
areas
in
close
proximity.
Owners/
operators
must
request
the
RAP,
and
the
Director
will
approve
or
deny
the
RAP,
according
to
the
requirements
in
part
270,
subpart
H
(
§
270.230(
c)).

A
RAP
for
an
alternative
location
must
meet
the
additional
requirements
specified
in
section
270.230(
d),
including
the
RCRA
expanded
public
participation
requirements
in
sections
124.31
through
124.33.
In
addition,
under
section
270.230(
e)(
2),
these
alternative
locations
are
remediation
waste
management
sites,
and
retain
the
benefit
of
complying
with
the
requirements
of
section
264.1(
j)
in
lieu
of
part
264,
subparts
B,
C,
and

NEED
FOR
AND
USE
OF
THE
COLLECTION
2(
a)
Need/
Authority
for
the
Collection
This
section
describes
the
need
and
authority
for
each
type
of
information
collection
analyzed
in
this
ICR.
All
information
collection
requirements
associated
with
the
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
requirements
were
established
under
the
authority
of
sections
3004
and
3005
of
RCRA,
as
amended.
EPA
believes
these
information
collection
requirements
are
necessary
to
balance
streamlined
regulation
of
remediation
wastes
with
the
Agency's
responsibility
to
protect
human
health
and
the
environment.

General
Requirements
for
Hazardous
Remediation
Waste
Management
Sites
Hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
must
comply
with
all
parts
of
40
CFR
part
264
except
subparts
B,
C,
and
D,
and
section
264.101.
In
place
of
the
requirements
in
subparts
B,
C,
and
D,
however,
they
need
to
comply
with
performance
standards
based
on
the
general
requirement
goals
in
these
sections,
which
are
codified
at
40
CFR
264.1(
j).

Section
264.1(
j)(
1)
requires
owners/
operators
of
hazardous
waste
remediation
sites
to
obtain
an
EPA
identification
number
by
applying
to
the
Administrator
using
EPA
Form
8700­
12.
This
information
collection
is
required
by
section
3010
of
RCRA,
and
is
needed
to
ensure
consistent
and
coordinated
identification
of
the
site
by
EPA
under
RCRA
and
other
regulatory
programs.

Section
264.1(
j)(
2)
requires
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
obtain
a
detailed
chemical
and
physical
analysis
of
a
representative
sample
of
the
waste
that
will
be
remediated.
At
a
minimum,
the
waste
analysis
must
contain
all
the
information
which
must
be
known
to
treat,
store,
or
dispose
of
the
waste
in
accordance
with
40
CFR
parts
264
and
268.
The
owner/
operator
needs
the
information
obtained
from
the
waste
analysis
to
determine
whether
there
are
any
potential
dangers
from
handling
the
remediation
waste.
The
waste
analysis
requirement
contributes
to
EPA's
goal
of
preventing
undetected
releases
or
reactions
of
hazardous
waste
on
site.

Section
264.1(
j)(
4)
requires
owners/
operators
to
inspect
the
remediation
waste
management
site
for
malfunctions,
deterioration,
operator
errors,
and
discharges
that
may
be
causing,
or
may
lead
to,
a
release
of
hazardous
waste
constituents
to
the
environment,
or
a
threat
to
human
health.
The
owner/
operator
needs
to
conduct
these
inspections
to
identify
problems
in
time
to
correct
them
before
they
harm
human
health
or
the
environment.
EPA
needs
owners/
operators
to
perform
inspections
in
order
to
prevent
undetected
releases
or
other
problems
at
the
facility.

Section
264.1(
j)(
7)
requires
owners/
operators
not
to
locate
remediation
waste
management
units
within
a
floodplain
unless
the
owner/
operator
can
meet
the
demonstration
of
section
264.18(
b).
In
particular,
the
owner/
operator
must
demonstrate
that
procedures
will
be
in
effect
to
remove
waste
safely
before
flood
waters
reach
the
unit
in
the
event
of
a
flood,
or
no
adverse
effects
on
human
health
or
the
environment
would
result
from
a
washout.
This
information
collection
contributes
to
EPA's
goal
of
preventing
unforseen
releases
of
hazardous
wastes.

Section
264.1(
j)(
9)
requires
owners/
operators
to
develop
and
maintain
a
construction
quality
assurance
program
for
surface
impoundments,
waste
piles,
and
landfills,
as
specified.
EPA
needs
this
information
to
ensure
that
the
units
are
constructed
and
designed
to
prevent
unforseen
releases
of
hazardous
wastes.
8
Section
264.1(
j)(
10)
codifies
streamlined
contingency
and
emergency
plan
regulations
for
hazardous
remediation
waste
sites.
Requiring
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
develop
and
maintain
contingency
and
emergency
plans
contributes
to
EPA's
goal
of
minimizing
unanticipated
damage
from
the
treatment,
storage,
or
disposal
of
hazardous
waste.
Contingency
planning
is
also
mandated
by
RCRA
section
3004(
a)(
5).

Section
264.1(
j)(
12)
requires
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
develop,
maintain,
and
implement
a
plan
to
meet
the
requirements
in
sections
264.1(
j)(
2)
through
(
j)(
6)
and
sections
264.1(
j)(
9)
through
(
j)(
10).
40
CFR
264.1(
j)(
13)
requires
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
maintain
records
documenting
compliance
with
sections
264.1(
j)(
1)
through
(
j)(
12).
Under
40
CFR
264.73(
b)(
17),
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
are
required
to
record,
as
it
becomes
available,
and
maintain
in
the
operating
record
any
records
required
under
section
264.1(
j)(
13).
EPA
needs
a
record
of
this
information
to
be
sure
that
the
requirements
of
section
264.1(
j)
are
being
met.

(

Requirements
for
Staging
Piles
Staging
piles
are
codified
at
40
CFR
264.554
under
the
authority
of
section
3004
of
RCRA.
Sections
264.554(
c)
and
(
d)
identify
procedures
and
information
requirements
for
designating
staging
piles.
Information
provided
to
EPA
by
owners/
operators
seeking
designation
of
staging
piles
is
needed
to
ensure
that
the
design
and
operation
of
the
staging
pile
will
comply
with
all
applicable
regulations
and
will
be
protective
of
human
health
and
the
environment.

Owners/
operators
may
request
an
extension
of
up
to
six
months
to
the
two­
year
limit
for
staging
pile
operation.
Extensions
are
authorized
under
section
264.554(
i)
and
require
a
request
with
supporting
information
to
be
submitted
to
EPA.
EPA
requires
information
in
extension
requests
to
ensure
that
continued
operation
of
the
staging
pile
is
necessary
and
will
not
pose
a
threat
to
human
health
and
the
environment.
In
addition,
the
information
may
be
necessary
to
develop
further
standards
and
design
criteria
for
the
staging
pile.

Section
264.554(
k)
provides
that,
within
180
days
after
the
operating
term
of
the
staging
pile
expires,
owners/
operators
must
close
a
staging
pile
located
in
an
uncontaminated
area
of
the
site
in
accordance
with
sections
264.258(
a)
and
265.258(
a)
and
sections
264.111
and
265.111
(
i.
e.,
the
closure
requirements
for
waste
piles).

Section
264.554(
l)
specifies
procedures
for
incorporating
staging
piles
into
existing
permits
(
including
RAPs),
closure
plans,
or
orders,
at
the
owner/
operator's
initiative.
These
procedures
are
needed
to
keep
the
permit,
closure
plans,
or
orders
up
to
date.

(

Remedial
Action
Plans
Under
40
CFR
270.80
through
270.90,
EPA
provides
general
information
on
RAPs
(
e.
g.,
a
definition
of
a
RAP,
applicability
criteria).
Under
section
270.95
through
270.125,
EPA
9
describes
how
to
apply
for
a
RAP.
These
procedures
are
needed
to
ensure
owners/
operators
understand
the
requirements
and
procedures
they
must
follow.

Under
section
270.130(
b),
if
the
Director
tentatively
finds
that
the
RAP
application
does
not
include
all
of
the
information
required
under
section
270.110
or
that
the
proposed
remediation
waste
management
activities
do
not
meet
regulatory
standards,
the
Director
may
request
additional
information
from
the
owner/
operator.
EPA
needs
this
information
to
ensure
that
the
proposed
remediation
waste
management
activities
meet
the
regulatory
standards.

The
Agency
believes
that
the
information
collected
in
the
RAP
applications
is
necessary
to
determine
how
and
where
media
and
remediation
waste
will
be
managed.
The
information
is
essential
to
determine
whether
the
management
of
these
materials
will
be
protective
of
human
health
and
the
environment,
and
will
be
in
compliance
with
standards
established
pursuant
to
RCRA.

Under
section
270.170,
the
Director
must
specify
in
a
RAP,
either
directly
or
by
reference,
procedures
for
future
modifications,
revocations
and
reissuance,
or
termination
of
the
RAP.
Owners/
operators
and
EPA
need
these
procedures
to
ensure
that
modifications
can
be
made
in
a
manner
that
protects
human
health
and
the
environment.

Under
section
270.195,
RAPs
must
be
issued
for
a
fixed
term,
not
to
exceed
ten
years,
although
they
may
be
renewed
upon
approval
by
the
Director
in
fixed
increments
of
no
more
than
ten
years
by
following
the
requirements
of
section
270.200.
EPA
needs
this
information
to
determine
whether
the
management
of
these
materials
will
be
protective
of
human
health
and
the
environment,
and
will
be
in
compliance
with
standards
established
pursuant
to
RCRA.

Section
270.210
requires
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
keep
records
concerning
their
RAP.
Recordkeeping
is
required
to
ensure
that
owners/
operators
are
following
the
requirements
for
preparing
and
maintaining
a
RAP.

Under
section
270.220,
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
may
transfer
their
RAPs
to
new
owners/
operators.
Records
of
such
changes
are
needed
to
ensure
that
owners/
operators
are
aware
of
their
rights
and
obligations
under
part
270,
subpart
H.

Under
section
270.230,
owners/
operators
may
request
a
RAP
for
remediation
waste
management
activities
at
a
location
removed
from
the
area
where
the
remediation
wastes
originated
if
they
believe
such
a
location
would
be
more
protective
than
the
contaminated
area
or
areas
in
close
proximity.
This
information
is
essential
to
determine
whether
the
management
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
will
be
protective
of
human
health
and
the
environment,
and
will
be
in
compliance
with
standards
established
pursuant
to
RCRA.

Practical
Utility/
Users
of
the
Data
(
1)
General
Requirements
for
Hazardous
Remediation
Waste
Management
Sites
An
owner/
operator
of
a
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
site
must
request
an
EPA
identification
number
by
completing
and
submitting
EPA
Form
8700­
12,
according
to
section
264.1(
j)(
1).
EPA
uses
Form
8700­
12
to
process
the
request
and
to
ensure
accurate
and
consistent
identification
of
the
site.
Both
EPA
and
the
owner/
operator
use
the
EPA
identification
number
as
a
standard
way
of
identifying
the
site
(
e.
g.,
in
correspondence,
reports).

In
performing
waste
analysis,
pursuant
to
section
264.1(
j)(
2),
the
owner/
operator
of
a
remediation
waste
management
site
obtains
detailed
chemical
and
physical
properties
of
the
remediation
waste.
The
owner/
operator
uses
these
data
to
design
and
implement
effective
and
safe
remedial
actions
and
to
prevent
unanticipated
contaminant
releases.

Section
264.1(
j)(
4)
requires
owners/
operators
to
inspect
the
remediation
waste
management
site
for
malfunctions,
deterioration,
operator
errors,
and
discharges
that
may
be
causing,
or
may
lead
to,
a
release
of
hazardous
waste
constituents
to
the
environment,
or
a
threat
to
human
health.
The
owner/
operator
uses
the
data
collected
in
order
to
identify
problems
in
time
to
correct
them
before
they
harm
human
health
or
the
environment.

Under
section
264.1(
j)(
7),
owners/
operators
planning
to
design,
construct,
operate,
or
maintain
a
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
unit
in
a
100­
year
floodplain
must
demonstrate
that
the
unit
meets
the
criteria
of
section
264.18(
b).
The
Director
uses
the
information
in
the
demonstration
to
evaluate
whether
the
risk
of
contamination
due
to
a
flood
is
greater
if
the
wastes
are
left
unremediated
within
the
floodplain
than
if
the
remediation
wastes
are
managed
in
a
unit
within
the
floodplain.

Section
264.1(
j)(
9)
requires
owners/
operators
to
develop
and
maintain
a
construction
quality
assurance
program
for
surface
impoundments,
waste
piles,
and
landfills,
as
specified.
Owners/
operators
use
this
plan
to
construct
and
maintain
these
units
in
a
manner
that
prevents
unforseen
releases
of
hazardous
wastes.

Section
264.1(
j)(
10)
requires
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
develop
and
maintain
contingency
and
emergency
plans.
The
contingency
and
emergency
plans
are
used
by
the
owner/
operator
to
assure
an
appropriate
response
to
any
unplanned
release
of
hazardous
waste
or
hazardous
waste
constituents
during
the
remedial
action.

Section
264.1(
j)(
12)
requires
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
develop,
maintain,
and
implement
a
plan
to
meet
the
requirements
in
sections
264.1(
j)(
2)
through
(
j)(
6)
and
sections
264.1(
j)(
9)
through
(
j)(
10).
40
CFR
264.1(
j)(
13)
requires
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
to
maintain
records
documenting
compliance
with
sections
264.1(
j)(
1)
through
(
j)(
12).
Under
40
CFR
264.73(
b)(
17),
owners/
operators
of
remediation
11
waste
management
sites
are
required
to
record,
as
it
becomes
available,
and
maintain
in
the
operating
record
any
records
required
under
section
264.1(
j)(
13).
Owners/
operators
use
these
records
to
keep
track
of
maintenance
and
repairs,
inspections,
design
criteria,
and
compliance
with
other
aspects
of
hazardous
waste
remediation.

(

Requirements
for
Staging
Piles
Data
submitted
by
owners/
operators
seeking
designation
of
staging
piles
is
used
by
EPA
to
evaluate
and
approve
proposed
remedial
actions
involving
staging
piles.
Specifically,
EPA
uses
the
data
to
develop
standards
and
design
criteria
for
staging
piles
that
are
included
in
an
approved
permit,
order,
or
closure
plan.
Similarly,
when
owners/
operators
request
extensions
to
the
two­
year
limit
for
operating
a
staging
pile,
EPA
uses
submitted
data
to
evaluate
the
need
for
and
protectiveness
of
the
extension,
and
to
issue
further
standards
and
design
criteria
if
needed.

Owners/
operators
using
a
staging
pile
in
uncontaminated
areas
must
close
the
staging
piles
in
accordance
with
applicable
requirements
of
sections
264.258(
a)
and
264.111
or
265.258(
a)
and
265.111.
Information
submitted
by
owners/
operators
pursuant
to
these
closure
and
post­
closure
care
requirements
is
used
by
EPA
to
approve
closure
plans
and
ensure
that
the
site
does
not
pose
a
continuing
threat
to
human
health
and
the
environment.

Section
264.554(
l)
specifies
procedures
for
incorporating
staging
piles
into
existing
RCRA
permits,
closure
plans,
or
orders.
In
processing
the
information
collected,
EPA
ensures
that
the
proposed
modifications
will
comply
with
all
applicable
provisions
of
RCRA.

(
3)
Remedial
Action
Plans
Information
submitted
in
RAP
applications
and
renewals,
including
requested
additional
information,
is
used
by
the
Director
to
verify
that
proposed
remedial
activities
will
be
conducted
in
accordance
with
applicable
regulations
and
in
a
manner
which
protects
human
health
and
the
environment.
In
addition,
the
Director
may
use
the
information
in
aggregate
(
e.
g.,
number
of
RAPs
approved)
to
track
and
evaluate
RCRA
implementation
and
to
assist
with
further
program
development.

Section
270.210
requires
owners/
operators
to
maintain
a
file
of
RAP­
related
documents.
The
owners/
operators
use
information
included
in
the
operating
record
to
minimize
unanticipated
damage
from
the
treatment,
storage,
or
disposal
of
hazardous
remediation
waste.
If
an
unanticipated
release
occurs,
the
owner/
operator
may
review
the
information
in
the
file
to
determine
the
composition
of
the
waste
and
appropriate
contingency
measures.

In
the
event
that
a
remediation
waste
management
site
changes
ownership,
a
RAP
may
be
transferred
to
the
new
owner/
operator
under
the
procedures
in
section
270.220.
Specifically,
the
current
owner/
operator
is
required
to
submit
to
the
Director
a
modified
RAP
and
a
written
agreement
between
the
current
and
new
owner/
operator.
The
Director
uses
this
information
to
12
maintain
accurate
records
on
the
ownership
of
the
sites
and
to
ensure
that
new
owners/
operators
are
aware
of
their
rights
and
obligations
under
part
270,
subpart
H.

Under
section
270.230,
owners/
operators
may
request
a
RAP
for
remediation
waste
management
activities
at
a
location
removed
from
the
area
where
the
remediation
wastes
originated
if
they
believe
such
a
location
would
be
more
protective
than
the
contaminated
area
or
areas
in
close
proximity.
The
Director
uses
the
information
to
verify
that
proposed
remedial
activities
will
be
conducted
in
accordance
with
applicable
regulations
in
a
manner
that
protects
human
health
and
the
environment.

NONDUPLICATION,
CONSULTATIONS,
AND
OTHER
COLLECTION
CRITERIA
3(
a)
Nonduplication
No
document
identical
or
similar
in
purpose
to
the
RAP
is
required
by
the
Federal
government.
Since
management
of
hazardous
contaminated
media
will
take
place
under
many
Federal
and
State
remedial
programs,
the
Agency
has
established
RAP
requirements
that
are
flexible
enough
so
that
any
enforceable
document
used
by
one
of
these
programs,
which
contains
the
relevant
information
and
goes
through
at
least
the
minimum
public
participation
requirements
in
section
270.145,
can
be
considered
equivalent
to
the
RAP.
A
respondent
would
not
be
required
to
duplicate
effort
or
documentation
to
meet
the
requirements
of
the
RAP.

Most
of
the
information
required
by
the
regulations
is
not
available
from
any
source
but
the
respondents.
To
avoid
duplicating
previous
work,
EPA
allows
respondents
to
draw
upon
similar
analyses
in
compiling
data
(
e.
g.,
for
waste
analyses),
provided
the
information
meets
the
requirements
specified
in
the
regulations.

3(
b)
Public
Notice
In
compliance
with
the
Paperwork
Reduction
Act
of
1995,
EPA
issued
a
public
notice
in
the
Federal
Register
on
April
14,
2005
(
70
FR
19757).
No
comments
were
received.

3(
c)
Consultations
In
developing
this
ICR
for
the
HWIR­
Media
final
rule,
EPA
conducted
consultations
with
industry
regarding
the
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
requirements
covered
in
this
ICR.
Their
feedback
enabled
the
Agency
to
develop
hour
and
cost
assumptions
that
are
representative
of
their
"
real­
world"
experience.
These
respondents
were
identified
in
that
previous
ICR.
As
with
the
previous
renewal
(
ICR
Number
1775.03),
EPA
has
updated
the
costs
to
reflect
inflation,
but
has
no
reason
to
believe
that
the
number
of
burden
hours
has
changed.

In
developing
this
current
ICR,
EPA
consulted
with
four
State
agencies
to
ascertain
the
13
number
of
respondents
subject
to
the
RAP
requirements
under
40
CFR
part
270.

Effects
of
Less
Frequent
Collection
EPA
has
carefully
considered
the
burden
imposed
upon
the
regulated
community
by
the
general
requirements
for
remediation
waste
management
sites.
EPA
is
confident
that
those
activities
required
of
respondents
are
necessary,
and
to
the
extent
possible,
has
attempted
to
minimize
the
burden
imposed.
EPA
believes
strongly
that
if
the
minimum
requirements
specified
under
the
regulations
are
not
met,
neither
the
facilities
nor
EPA
can
ensure
that
hazardous
remediation
wastes
will
be
managed
properly,
and
will
not
pose
a
serious
threat
to
human
health
and
the
environment.

Since
the
RAP
is
a
one­
time
document
for
a
particular
remediation
waste
management
site,
less
frequent
preparation
is
not
possible.
At
some
sites,
periodic
review
or
renewal
of
the
RAP
may
be
needed
to
assure
that
the
remedy
continues
to
comply
with
currently
applicable
RCRA
requirements.
RAPs
are
for
fixed
terms,
not
to
exceed
ten
years.
When
remedies
continue
beyond
the
term
of
the
RAP,
the
Director
may
renew
the
RAP
unchanged
or
with
changes
as
needed.
In
addition,
the
Director
must
review
RAPs
for
hazardous
waste
land
disposal
facilities
every
five
years.
Although
the
RAP
renewals
and
five­
year
reviews
do
not
require
owners/
operators
to
submit
progress
reports
or
new
applications,
communication
will
be
necessary
to
appraise
the
Director
of
the
status
of
the
cleanup.

RAP
Application
40
CFR
270.80(
a)
defines
a
RAP
as
a
special
form
of
RCRA
permit
that
an
owner/
operator
of
a
remediation
waste
management
site
may
obtain,
instead
of
a
permit
issued
under
sections
270.3
through
270.66,
to
treat,
store,
or
dispose
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
at
a
remediation
waste
management
site.

Under
40
CFR
270.85(
a),
whenever
an
owner/
operator
treats,
stores,
or
disposes
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
in
a
manner
that
requires
a
RCRA
permit
under
section
270.1,
the
owner/
operator
must
either
obtain
a
RCRA
permit
or
a
RAP.
23
Under
40
CFR
270.85(
c),
an
owner/
operator
may
obtain
a
RAP
for
managing
hazardous
remediation
waste
at
an
already
permitted
RCRA
facility.
This
RAP
must
be
approved
as
a
modification
to
the
existing
permit
according
to
the
requirements
of
section
270.41
or
section
270.42.
However,
when
the
owner/
operator
submits
an
application
for
such
modification,
the
information
requirements
in
section
270.42(
a)(
1)(
i),
(
b)(
1)(
iv),
and
(
c)(
1)(
iv)
do
not
apply;
instead,
the
owner/
operator
must
submit
the
information
required
under
section
270.110.
When
the
permit
is
modified,
the
RAP
becomes
part
of
the
RCRA
permit.
[

This
ICR
does
not
address
the
requirements
in
40
CFR
270.41

Under
40
CFR
270.95,
an
owner/
operator
may
apply
for
a
RAP
by
completing
an
application,
signing
it,
and
submitting
it
to
the
Director.

40
CFR
270.100
provides
that,
when
a
facility
or
remediation
waste
management
site
is
owned
by
one
person,
but
the
treatment,
storage,
or
disposal
activities
are
operated
by
another
person,
it
is
the
operator's
duty
to
obtain
a
RAP.
Under
section
270.105,
both
the
owner
and
the
operator
must
sign
the
RAP
application
and
any
required
reports
according
to
sections
270.11(
a)
through
(
c).
In
addition,
both
the
owner
and
the
operator
must
also
make
the
certification
required
under
section
270.11(
d)(
1).
However,
the
owner
may
choose
the
alternative
certification
under
section
270.11(
d)(
2)
if
the
operator
certifies
under
section
270.11(
d)(
1).

The
RAP
application
must
include
all
the
information
specified
in
section
270.110.
Under
section
270.115,
an
owner/
operator
may
claim
as
confidential
any
or
all
of
the
information
he
submits
to
EPA.
Any
such
claim
must
be
asserted
at
the
time
he
submits
his
RAP
application
or
other
submissions
by
stamping
the
words
"
confidential
business
information"
on
each
page
containing
such
information.

The
owner/
operator
must
submit
the
RAP
application
to
the
Director
for
approval
(
§
270.120).
If
the
RAP
application
is
submitted
as
part
of
another
document,
he
must
clearly
identify
the
components
of
that
document
that
constitute
the
RAP
application
(
§
270.125).

40
CFR
270.130(
b)
provides
that,
if
the
Director
tentatively
finds
that
a
RAP
application
does
not
include
all
of
the
information
requested
in
section
270.110
or
that
the
proposed
remediation
waste
management
activities
do
not
meet
the
regulatory
standards,
the
Director
may
request
additional
information
from
the
owner/
operator
or
ask
the
owner/
operator
to
correct
deficiencies
in
his
application.

RAP
Applications
According
to
40
CFR
270.95
and
270.120,
the
Director
must
receive
RAP
applications
for
approval.
Sections
270.130
through
270.140
identify
the
activities
the
Director
must
follow
to
review
and
approve
RAP
applications.
As
part
of
this
process,
the
Director
may
require
RAP
applicants
to
provide
additional
information,
as
described
in
section
270.110(
i).
When
additional
information
is
requested,
the
Director
must
receive
and
review
the
information
to
ensure
that
the
RAP
application
complies
with
applicable
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
standards
and,
if
necessary,
develop
additional
permit
conditions.

Based
on
the
RAP
application,
the
Director
must
prepare
either
a
draft
RAP
or
a
notice
of
intent
to
deny
the
RAP.
Section
270.135
describes
what
the
Director
must
include
in
a
draft
RAP.

Under
section
270.140(
a),
the
Director
must
prepare
a
statement
of
basis
that
briefly
describes
the
derivation
of
conditions
of
the
draft
RAP
or
the
rationale
for
the
notice
of
intent
to
deny
the
RAP.
Under
section
270.140(
b),
the
Director
must
compile
an
administrative
record.
Under
section
270.140(
c),
the
Director
must
make
that
record
available
to
the
public.
The
administrative
record
should
include
the
following
items:

°
The
RAP
application
and
any
supporting
data
furnished
by
the
applicant;

°
The
draft
RAP
or
notice
of
intent
to
deny;

°
The
statement
of
basis
and
all
documents
cited
therein;
and
°
Other
documents
supporting
the
decision
to
approve
or
deny
the
RAP
Under
40
CFR
270.85(
c),
an
owner/
operator
may
obtain
a
RAP
for
managing
hazardous
remediation
waste
at
an
already
permitted
RCRA
facility.
This
RAP
must
be
approved
as
a
modification
to
the
existing
permit
according
to
the
requirements
of
section
270.41
or
section
270.42.
When
the
permit
is
modified,
the
RAP
becomes
part
of
the
RCRA
permit.
[

(
b)
Public
Comment
on
the
Draft
RAP
or
Notice
of
Intent
to
Deny
Under
40
CFR
270.145,
the
Director
must
notify
the
applicant
of
his
intention
to
approve
or
deny
the
RAP
application.
The
Director
also
must
notify
the
public
of
his
intention
to
approve
or
deny
the
RAP
application
by
publishing
a
notice
in
a
major
local
newspaper
or
general
31
circulation
and
broadcasting
his
intention
over
a
local
radio
station.
In
addition,
the
Director
must
notify
the
applicable
local
government
and
State
agencies
of
his
intention.

The
public
notice
must
provide
an
opportunity
for
the
public
to
submit
written
comments
on
the
draft
RAP
or
notice
of
intent
to
deny
within
at
least
45
days.
If,
within
the
comment
period,
the
Director
receives
written
notice
of
opposition
to
his
intention
to
approve
or
deny
the
RAP
application
and
a
request
for
a
hearing,
the
Director
must
hold
an
informal
public
hearing
to
discuss
issues
related
to
the
approval
or
denial
of
the
RAP
application.
The
Director
may
also
determine
on
his
own
initiative
that
an
informal
hearing
is
appropriate.
The
Director
must
notify
the
public
that
a
hearing
will
take
place.

(
c)
RAP
Final
Decisions
40
CFR
270.150
specifies
the
procedures
by
which
the
Director
must
make
a
final
decision
on
RAP
applications.
If
the
RAP
is
to
be
approved,
the
Director
must
issue
a
final
RAP
and
notify
the
applicant
and
all
commenters
on
the
draft
RAP
of
the
approval
in
writing.
If
the
RAP
is
denied,
the
Director
must
prepare
and
send
to
the
applicant
and
all
commenters
on
the
draft
RAP
of
the
denial
in
writing.
Before
issuing
a
final
decision,
the
Director
must
compile
an
administrative
record
that
includes
the
following
items:

°
All
comments
received
during
the
public
comment
period;

°
Tapes
or
transcripts
of
any
hearings;

°
Any
written
materials
submitted
at
such
hearings;

°
The
responses
to
comments;

°
Any
new
material
placed
in
the
record
since
issuance
of
the
draft
RAP;

°
Any
other
documents
supporting
the
RAP;
and
°
A
copy
of
the
final
RAP.

(
d)
Administrative
Appeal
of
a
RAP
Application
Under
40
CFR
270.155,
the
Director
must
review
administrative
appeals
of
the
Director's
decision
to
approve
or
deny
a
RAP.
The
Director
must
then
give
public
notice
of
any
grant
of
review
of
RAPs
by
the
Environmental
Appeals
Board
(
EAB).
32
(
e)
RAP
Modification,
Revocation
and
Reissuance,
and
Termination
Under
40
CFR
270.170,
the
Director
must
specify
in
a
RAP,
either
directly
or
by
reference,
procedures
for
future
modifications,
revocations
and
reissuance,
or
termination
of
the
RAP.
These
procedures
must
provide
adequate
opportunities
for
public
review
and
comment
on
any
modification,
revocation
and
reissuance,
or
termination
that
would
significantly
change
the
management
of
the
remediation
waste,
or
that
otherwise
merits
public
review
and
comment.

Under
sections
270.175
and
270.185,
the
Director
may
choose
to
modify
the
final
RAP
because
the
owner/
operator
made
material
and
substantial
alterations
to
the
RAP,
new
information
became
available,
or
standards
and
regulations
under
which
the
RAP
was
submitted
have
changed.
In
addition,
if
the
RAP
includes
a
compliance
schedule,
the
Director
may
modify
it
if
events
over
which
the
owner/
operator
has
little
control
over
affect
RAP
activities
(
e.
g.,
a
flood).

If
the
RAP
has
been
incorporated
into
a
traditional
RCRA
permit,
as
allowed
under
section
270.85(
c),
then
the
RAP
will
be
modified
according
to
the
applicable
requirements
in
sections
270.40
through
270.42,
revoked
and
reissued
according
to
the
applicable
requirements
in
sections
270.41
and
270.43,
or
terminated
according
to
applicable
requirements
of
section
270.43.

(
f)
Administrative
Appeal
of
a
Modification,
Revocation
and
Reissuance,
or
Termination
of
a
RAP
Under
40
CFR
270.190(
c),
the
EAB
must
review
administrative
appeals
of
revisions
to
a
RAP.
The
Board
must
act
on
the
appeal
within
60
days
of
receiving
it;
otherwise,
the
appeal
is
considered
denied.

(
g)
RAP
Expiration
Under
40
CFR
270.195,
the
Director
may
renew
the
RAP
for
up
to
10
years.
In
addition,
the
Director
must
review
any
RAP
for
hazardous
waste
land
disposal
five
years
after
the
RAP
is
issued
or
reissued.

(
h)
RAP
Transfers
Under
40
CFR
270.220,
once
the
new
owner/
operator
has
submitted
a
revised
RAP
application,
and
has
demonstrated
compliance
with
40
CFR
part
264,
subpart
H,
the
Director
will
notify
the
previous
owner/
operator
that
he
or
she
no
longer
has
to
comply
with
40
CFR
part
264,
subpart
H.
33
(
i)
RAP
for
an
Off­
Site
Location
Under
40
CFR
270.230,
if
the
applicant
wishes
to
perform
remediation
waste
management
activities
under
a
RAP
at
a
location
removed
from
the
area
where
the
waste
originated,
the
Director
must
approve
a
RAP
for
this
alternative
location
and
must
include
in
the
RAP
that
the
alternative
location
meets
the
requirements
of
section
270.230(
d).

5(
b)
Collection
Methodology
and
Management
In
collecting
and
analyzing
the
information
submitted,
EPA
uses
equipment
such
as
personal
computers
and
applicable
data
base
software,
when
appropriate.
As
part
of
the
RAP
application
process,
the
public
will
receive
information
through
newspaper
announcements
and
other
media,
and,
upon
request,
will
have
access
to
additional
data
in
the
administrative
record.

5(
c)
Small
Entity
Flexibility
RAPs
are
not
mandatory.
The
Agency
believes
that
the
RAP
provisions
provide
a
flexible,
less
burdensome
alternative
to
RCRA
permitting
at
remediation
waste
management
sites.

Staging
piles
provide
an
alternative
to
placing
hazardous
remediation
waste
in
a
waste
pile.
Staging
piles
are
less
burdensome
because
the
waste
need
not
be
treated
to
land
disposal
restriction
standards
before
being
placed
in
the
pile,
as
is
the
case
for
a
waste
pile.

These
regulatory
alternatives
may
decrease
burden
for
both
small
and
large
entities.

5(
d)
Collection
Schedule
(
1)
Requirements
for
Staging
Piles
As
provided
under
40
CFR
264.554(
d)(
1)(
iii),
a
staging
pile
must
not
operate
for
more
than
two
years,
except
when
the
Director
grants
an
operating
term
extension
under
section
264.554(
i).
The
owner/
operator
must
measure
the
two­
year
limit,
or
other
operating
term
specified
by
the
Director
in
the
permit,
closure
plan,
or
order,
from
the
first
time
remediation
waste
is
placed
into
the
staging
pile.
The
owner/
operator
must
maintain
a
record
of
the
date
when
remediation
waste
was
first
placed
into
the
staging
pile
for
the
life
of
the
permit,
order,
or
approved
closure
plan,
or
for
three
years,
whichever
is
longer.

Under
40
CFR
264.554(
i)(
1),
the
Director
may
grant
one
operating
term
extension
for
a
34
staging
pile
of
up
to
180
days
beyond
the
operating
term
limit
contained
in
the
permit,
closure
plan,
or
order.
To
obtain
an
extension,
owners/
operators
must
document
that
an
extension
will
not
pose
a
threat
to
human
health
and
the
environment
and
is
necessary
to
ensure
timely
and
efficient
implementation
of
remedial
actions
at
the
facility.

40
CFR
264.554(
k)
provides
that,
within
180
days
after
the
operating
term
of
the
staging
pile
expires,
owners/
operators
must
close
a
staging
pile
located
in
an
uncontaminated
area
of
the
site
in
accordance
with
sections
264.258(
a)
and
265.258(
a)
and
sections
264.111
and
265.111
(
i.
e.,
the
closure
requirements
for
waste
piles).

(
2)
Remedial
Action
Plans
Under
40
CFR
270.220(
a),
owners/
operators
of
remediation
waste
management
sites
may
transfer
their
RAPs
to
new
owners/
operators.
To
transfer
the
RAP,
owners/
operators
must
follow
the
requirements
specified
in
their
RAP
for
RAP
modification
to
identify
the
new
owner/
operator,
and
incorporate
any
other
necessary
requirements.
The
new
owner/
operator
must
submit
a
revised
RAP
application
no
later
than
90
days
before
the
scheduled
change
along
with
a
written
agreement
containing
a
specific
date
for
transfer
of
RAP
responsibility
between
the
owner/
operator
and
the
new
permittees.

Estimating
Respondent
Hours
EPA
estimates
respondent
hourly

for
all
the

requirements
covered
in
this

based
on
the
cost
of
labor,
capital,

Labor
Costs
EPA
used
the
Bureau
of
Labor

Employment
Cost
Index
for
state

EPA
estimates
an

of
$
116.17
for
legal
staff,
$
94.73
for
managerial
staff,
$

for
§

developed
by
the
U.

Specifically,
EPA
contacted
four
States
that
have
adopted
the
RAP
provisions.
EPA
found
that,
over
the
past
two
years,
these
States
have
issued
a
total
of
nineteen
RAPs.
Given
this,
EPA
extrapolated
to
the
entire
nation
based
on
the
relative
quantity
of
hazardous
waste
managed
in
these
four
States
versus
all
Capital
costs
usually
include
any
produced
physical
good
needed
to
provide
the
necessary
information,
such
as
machinery,
computers,
and
other
equipment.
EPA
does
not
anticipate
that
respondents
will
incur
capital
costs
in
carrying
out
the
information
collection
requirements
covered
in
this
ICR.

(

Costs
O&
M
costs
are
those
costs
associated
with
a

incurred
continually
over
the

They
are
defined
by
the
Paperwork

as
"
the

(
i.

EPA
conducted
consultations
with
a
number
of
States
and
extrapolated
these
data
for
the
entire
country.

Based
on
this
analysis,
EPA
estimates
that,
currently,
there
are
14

In
estimating
the
number
of
existing
hazardous
remediation
waste

sites,
EPA
analyzed
data
submitted
by
generators
of
remediation­
derived
waste
(
i.

to
the
2001
and

BRS.
Based
on
these
data,
EPA
found
that,
currently,
there
are
1,756
sites
generating
remediation­
derived
wastes.
For
purposes
of
this
ICR,
EPA
assumes
that
only
five

EPA
also
estimates
that,
each
year,
eight
new
owners/
operators
of

sites
will
apply
for
a
RAP.
Thus,
EPA
estimates
that,
on

As
discussed
earlier
in
this
ICR,
a

EPA
found
that,
each
year,
1,158
new

For
purposes
of

General
Requirements
for
Hazardous
Remediation
Waste
Management
Sites
Following
is
a
discussion
of
the
Agency's
burden
assumptions
regarding
sites
subject
to
the
40
CFR
264.1(
j)
requirements.

(
b1)
Waste
Analyses
Owners/
operators
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
managements
sites
are
required
to
obtain
a
detailed
chemical
and
physical
analysis
of
a
representative
sample
of
the
hazardous
remediation
waste
to
be
managed
at
the
site.
EPA
estimates
that
the
owners/
operators
of
all
30
remediation
sites
will
perform
waste
analyses
in
order
to
obtain
this
information
each
year.

(
b2)
Inspections
Owners/
operators
must
inspect
the
remediation
waste
management
site
for
malfunctions,
deterioration,
operator
errors,
and
discharges
that
may
be
causing,
or
may
lead
to,
a
release
of
hazardous
waste
constituents
to
the
environment,
or
a
threat
to
human
health.
Note
that
this
ICR
burdens
inspections
under
Section
b6
of
this
subsection,
"
Compliance
Plan."
38
(
b3)
Demonstrations
for
Remediation
Waste
Management
Sites
in
Floodplains
Hazardous
remediation
waste
management
units
must
be
designed,
constructed,
operated,
and
maintained
in
such
a
way
as
to
prevent
washout
of
any
hazardous
waste
within
a
100­
year
floodplain.
Exceptions
are
allowed
for
sites
that
meet
the
demonstration
requirements
of
section
264.18(
b).

EPA
assumes
that
owners/
operators
of
existing
remediation
sites
have
already
prepared
and
submitted
the
above
demonstration,
if
applicable.
EPA
further
assumes
that,
each
year,
five
percent
of
owners/
operators
of
new
remediation
sites
(
i.
e.,
0.05
x
8
=
0)
will
prepare
and
submit
the
demonstration.
Thus,
EPA
estimates
that
no
owner/
operator
of
a
remediation
site
will
need
to
comply
with
this
information
collection
requirement
during
the
three­
year
period
covered
in
this
ICR.

(
b4)
Construction
Quality
Assurance
Program
Owners/
operators
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
are
required
to
develop
and
maintain
a
construction
quality
assurance
program
for
all
surface
impoundments,
waste
piles,
and
landfill
units,
as
specified.
EPA
assumes
that
existing
remediation
sites
have
already
developed
their
construction
quality
assurance
programs.
Thus,
EPA
estimates
that
only
the
eight
new
remediation
sites
will
have
to
conduct
this
activity
each
year.

(
b5)
Contingency
and
Emergency
Plan
Owners/
operators
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
are
required
to
develop
and
maintain
procedures
to
prevent
accidents.
EPA
assumes
that
existing
remediation
sites
have
already
developed
these
procedures.
Thus,
EPA
estimates
that
only
the
eight
new
remediation
sites
will
have
to
conduct
this
activity
each
year.

Owners/
operators
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
also
are
required
to
develop
and
maintain
a
contingency
and
emergency
plan.
EPA
assumes
that
existing
remediation
sites
have
already
developed
their
contingency
and
emergency
plans.
Thus,
EPA
estimates
that
only
the
eight
new
remediation
sites
will
have
to
conduct
this
activity
each
year.

(
b6)
Compliance
Plan
Owners/
operators
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
are
required
to
develop,
maintain,
and
implement
a
plan
to
meet
the
requirements
in
sections
264.1(
j)(
2)
through
(
j)(
6)
and
sections
264.1(
j)(
9)
through
(
j)(

EPA
estimates
that
the
owners/
operators
of
all
30
remediation
sites
will
need
to
comply
with
this
information
collection
requirement
each
year.
39
(

Recordkeeping
Requirements
Owners/
operators
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
are
required
to
maintain
records
documenting
compliance
with
sections
264.1(
j)(
1)
through
(
j)(
12)
in
the
operating
record.
EPA
estimates
that
the
owners/
operators
of
all
30
remediation
sites
will
need
to
comply
with
these
recordkeeping
requirements
each
year.

(
c)
Requirements
for
Staging
Piles
Following
is
a
discussion
of
the
Agency's
burden
assumptions
regarding
sites
subject
to
the
40
CFR
264.554
requirements
for
staging
piles.

(
c1)
Designation
of
Staging
Piles
To
manage
hazardous
remediation
waste
in
a
staging
pile,
owners/
operators
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
must
seek
a
staging
pile
designation
from
the
Director.
EPA
estimates
that,
each
year,
58
owners/
operators
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
will
seek
staging
pile
designations
under
section
264.554(
c).
EPA
also
estimates
that
one
percent
(
i.
e.,
0.01
x
58
=
1)
of
these
owners/
operators
will
need
to
prepare
and
submit
additional
information
requested
by
the
Director.

(
c2)
Staging
Pile
Recordkeeping
Owners/
operators
of
staging
piles
must
keep
a
record
of
the
date
when
waste
was
first
placed
in
the
staging
pile.
EPA
estimates
that,
each
year,
all
58
owners/
operators
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
seeking
staging
pile
designations
under
section
264.554(
c)
will
need
to
comply
with
the
recordkeeping
requirements
under
section
264.554(
d)(
1)(
iii).

(
c3)
Staging
Pile
Extensions
Staging
piles
are
intended
to
be
used
for
up
to
two
years.
Under
certain
circumstances,
the
Director
may
grant
an
extension
of
up
to
six
months.
EPA
estimates
that,
each
year,
20
percent
of
owners/
operators
with
existing
staging
piles
(
i.
e.,
0.20
x
146
=
29)
will
request
an
operating
term
extension
for
a
staging
pile.

Remedial
Action
Plans
Following
is
a
discussion
of
the
Agency's
burden
assumptions
regarding
sites
subject
to
the
40
CFR
part
270,
subpart
H
requirements.

(
d1)
RAP
Application
EPA
estimates
that,
each
year,
eight
owners/
operators
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
will
submit
a
RAP
application.
EPA
assumes
that
50
percent
of
these
owners/
operators
(
i.
e.,
0.50
x
8
=
4)
will
be
able
to
use
existing
documents
that
satisfy
the
requirements
for
a
RAP
in
preparing
their
RAP
applications.
The
remaining
50
percent
(
i.
e.,
0.50
x
8
=
4)
will
not
have
existing
documents
that
satisfy
the
requirements
for
a
RAP
and
thus,
will
have
to
develop
RAP
applications
from
new
information.
All
owners/
operators
must
submit
their
RAP
application
to
the
Director.

The
Director
may
request
additional
information
if
necessary.
EPA
estimates
that
ten
percent
of
owners/
operators
submitting
RAP
applications
each
year
(
i.
e.,
0.10
x
8
=
1)
will
be
required
to
prepare
and
submit
additional
information.

(
d2)
RAP
Modification,
Revocation
and
Reissuance,
and
Termination
To
modify
a
RAP,
owners/
operators
must
prepare
and
submit
information
to
modify
their
RAP
in
accordance
to
the
procedures
specified
in
the
RAP.
EPA
estimates
that,
each
year,
five
percent
of
owners/
operators
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
with
a
RAP
will
need
to
modify
it.
Thus,
EPA
estimates
that
two
owner/
operators
(
i.
e.,
0.05
x
30
=
2)
will
need
to
modify
his
RAP.

(
d3)
RAP
Recordkeeping
Owners/
operators
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
with
RAPs
are
required
to
keep
records
concerning
their
RAPs.
EPA
estimates
that
all
30
owners/
operators
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
with
RAPs
will
maintain
a
file
of
RAP
documents.

(
d4)
RAP
Transfers
Owners/
operators
of
hazardous
remediation
waste
management
sites
with
RAPs
may
transfer
the
RAPs
to
new
owners/
operators.
EPA
assumes
that,
each
year,
one
percent
of
the
owners/
operators
(
i.
e.,
0.01
x
30
=
0)
will
transfer
their
RAP.
Thus,
EPA
estimates
that
no
owner/
operator
will
need
to
comply
with
this
information
collection
requirement
during
the
threeyear
period
covered
in
this
ICR.

Reasons
for
Change
in
Burden
The
burden
in
this
ICR
has
not
changed
appreciably
from
the
previous
renewal
(
ICR
#
1775.03).
The
total
annual
O&
M
burden
in
this
ICR
decreased
by
$
9,000
from
the
previous
renewal
(
ICR
#
1775.03),
which
is
due
to
refinements
in
the
burden
estimates.
This
decrease
of
$
9,000
is
therefore
considered
an
"
adjustment".

This
hourly
burden
includes
time
for
preparing
and
submitting
a
RAP
application,
information
to
modify
a

remediation
waste
management
sites
subject
to
the
40
