The facility could continue to generate <br /> Liquid Injection feed hazardous and mixed wastes that can be disposed of off-site; but <br /> . onsite storage of newly generated mixed waste (83,000 gallons <br /> Solid Waste per year)for more than 90 days would not be allowed.Treatment of <br /> feed RCRA hazardous and mixed waste on-site (30,000 and 83,000 <br /> gallon per year, respectively)would not be allowed. Incineration of <br /> hazardous and mixed waste (6,000 and -500 gallons-liquids per <br /> year, respectively)would not be allowed. <br /> Ram Feed �' �"'°��"^` `�"` " <br /> Ignition DHS-only regulated wastes would not be affected (-104 <br /> Chamber tons-solids per year and 31,500 galions-liquids per year). <br /> Natural Gas Burner Proper disposal of waste is the generator's responsibility, <br /> Combustion Air although EPA and DHS as regulators,will assure that any site used <br /> a is adequate. The lack of available alternatives to the current <br /> practices of treatment and storage on site can not be used as a basis <br /> for issuance of a permit to a facility that would otherwise not qualify <br /> for a permit. <br /> REGION 9 INTERIM STATUS INCINERATION PERMIT PROCESS UPDATE <br /> Within EPA's Region 9(the states of California,Nevada,Arizona,and Hawaii)there are 17"interim status"incineration facilities <br /> subject to the November 8, 1989 permit decision deadline imposed by Congress on the RCRA program. <br /> Six of these facilities have been approved for closure—the process in which all aspects of a facility's waste management <br /> system cease operation.Closures were approved prior to 1989 for the following facilities: Magna Corporation; PPG Industries; <br /> Unitek, Hawaii; IT,Vine Hill; NAVMAG, Hawaii (Lualualei); and the University of Arizona. <br /> Of the remaining 11 facilities, EPA or the State have issued two permits;proposed denial of two permits;denied one permit; <br /> prepared draft permits for public review for two facilities;and approved three additional closure plans. In addition,one facility <br /> is seeking reclassification as an industrial furnace.These facilities are as follows: <br /> PROPOSED PROPOSED POTENTIAL <br /> PERMIT APPROVAL: PERMIT DENIAL: REC:I ASSIFICATION: <br /> — Shell Oil, — Lawrence Livermore — Dow Chemical, <br /> Martinez, CA National Lab., Pittsburgh,CA <br /> — Chevron Chemical, Livermore, CA APPROVED FACILITY <br /> Richmond,CA — Navajo Army Depot CLOSURES (1989): <br /> (State of Arizona <br /> PERMIT APPROVED: decision) — Sierra Army Depot, CA <br /> — Ashland Chemical, PERMIT DENIAL: — Hawthorne Army <br /> Commerce,CA Ammunition Plant (State <br /> — Aristech Chemical, — Cargill Chemical, of Nevada decision) <br /> Colton, CA Lynwood, CA — Alpha Resins, CA <br /> - 3 - <br />
