Comments were due by February 9. SRIC's comments are available. In order to get an accurate measurement of VOCs, there is a waiting period after drums are vented before headspace gas sampling is done. Commentors pointed out that the application must be denied because the application was incomplete and that the requested change would require changes in other parts of the permit, including requiring that sites determine whether a drum had liners and how many bags it contained, something that DOE's written documents do not accurately disclose. Those additional changes were not included in the permit modification request.
