Here is a short explanation of that permit and <br /> information about a permit received from EPA for Site 300 waste operations. You'll also <br /> find a 1 its:re rt on the proposed Decontamination and Waste Treatment Facility <br /> d <br /> (DWTF)R�RIe t. <br /> LLNL's facilities that handle the waste generated during research have been operating since <br /> 1980 under a federal program that became law in the late 1970s. Like other facilities that <br /> handle similar wastes, the Laboratory has been working with the federal and state <br /> regulatory agencies for a number of years to complete the process required to receive a <br /> "final permit." When the original legislation was passed it was not possible for the <br /> agencies to review all facilities that wanted permits immediately. Groups of facilities have <br /> been submitting their applications when requested by the agencies. This is the reason why <br /> many facilities, such as the Laboratory, are only now concluding the process with the <br /> agencies. The California Department of Health Services and EPA, along with other state, <br /> county and local regulatory agencies, have conducted periodic inspections of the hazardous <br /> waste operations during this time. <br /> An Equal Opportunity Employer•University of Califomia•P.O.Box 808 Livermore,California 94550•Telephone(415)422-1100•Twx 910-386-8339 UCLLL LVMR <br />
