40 CFR Part 261

[SW-FRL-7816-8]


Hazardous Waste Management System; Identification and Listing of 
Hazardous Waste; Withdrawal

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Withdrawal of proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is withdrawing its 
proposed rule to grant a petition submitted by Teris, LLC to exclude 
(or delist) a certain incineration ash generated by its El Dorado, AR 
Plant from the lists of hazardous wastes in the Resource Conservation 
and Recovery Act. This notice removes the proposed rule published in 68 
FR 55206 (September 23, 2003) for public review and comment. Several 
comments were received on this proposed rule, which highlighted gaps in 
the data presented by EPA. The Agency acknowledges these deficiencies. 
Teris withdrew its petition until such time as these deficiencies can 
be addressed. No further action on the proposed rule will be taken.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michelle Peace by mail at U.S. EPA 
Region 6, Multimedia Planning and Permitting Division, Corrective 
Action and Waste Minimization Section (6PD-C), 1445 Ross Avenue, 
Dallas, TX 75202, or by phone at (214) 665-7430 or by email at 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On September 23, 2003, 68 FR 55206, EPA 
proposed to approve an exclusion from the list of hazardous wastes for 
Teris, LLC. We subsequently received several adverse comments which 
highlighted several deficiencies in the data submitted by Teris. Teris 
withdrew its petition submitted, June 5, 2002 on August 13, 2004, until 
the areas of concern and data gaps can be addressed. No further action 
will be taken on this petition.
