Pacific Gas and <br />Efec&icCompany. <br />WE DELIVER ENERGY - <br />March 27. 2012 <br />Department of Toxic Substances Control <br />Program Data Management Section <br />Consolidation Site Annual Notification <br />1001 1 Street <br />Sacramento, CA 95812-0806 <br />MAR 29 2012 <br />ENVpE ISE RV GE STH <br />Re: Pacific Gas & Electric Company's <br />2012 Remote Waste/Consolidation Site Annual Notification <br />Ladies and Gentlemen: <br />S931A83S/lIWy <br />3d <br />lb34 7b1N3WN0a111N3 <br />2102 R 7, <br />Pacific Gas & Electric Company (PG&E) is submitting this notification to operate under the Health & Safety Code <br />provisions allowing small quantities of hazardous waste to be transported without a uniform hazardous waste manifest <br />from a remote location to a consolidation site. These remote sites are located within PG&E's operational territory, <br />which includes most of northern and central California and parts of southeastern California. <br />Attached are tables which list PG&E's consolidation facilities, including addresses and EPA identification numbers <br />(Tables 1-3). Table 4 provides a general description of PG&E's remote sites. For some of these remote sites, PG&E <br />previously obtained and will maintain the EPA identification numbers to properly handle occasional maintenance <br />projects that generate large quantities of waste. Table 5 lists the typical hazardous wastes that may be generated at <br />the remote sites. There have been no significant changes to our operations of remote sites or consolidation sites <br />since last year's notification. <br />In order to demonstrate eligibility for generator consolidation of remotely collected wastes, generators are required to <br />provide the basis for determining that a hazardous waste permit is not required under the federal Resource <br />Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and the federal regulations adopted under RCRA (Title 40, Code of Federal <br />Regulations). The following best describe the operation of PG&E's onsite consolidation sites: <br />The hazardous wastes being consolidated are not hazardous waste under federal law although the wastes are <br />regulated as hazardous waste under California state law. <br />The hazardous wastes are hazardous waste under federal law, but transportation to and accumulation at the <br />consolidation site of the wastes is not subject to permitting requirements under federal law because RCRA does <br />not subject these wastes to permitting requirements. <br />If you should have any questions regarding this matter, please contact me at (916) 760-2977. <br />Sincerely, <br />f Jk IZ <br />Michelle Le <br />Hazardous Material Media Program Manager <br />Environmental Operations <br />Cc: Certified Unified Program Agencies <br />Designated Agencies <br />Attachment: AB1448 tables (7 pages) <br />
