ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 261
[FRL-7961-3]
Hazardous Waste Management System; Identification and Listing of
Hazardous Waste; Final Amendment
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA, also the Agency or
we in this preamble) today is granting a petition to modify an
exclusion (or delisting) from the lists of hazardous waste previously
granted to BMW Manufacturing Co., LLC (BMW) in Greer, South Carolina.
This action responds to a petition for amendment submitted by BMW to
eliminate the total concentration limits in its wastewater treatment
sludge covered by its current conditional exclusion.
EPA received public comments on the November 26, 2004, Proposed
Rule (69 FR 68851) and took into account all public comments before
granting this final rule. The Agency re-evaluated the specific
information initially provided by the petitioner in its original
request and delistings granted to other automobile manufactures for
their F019 waste. This final decision eliminates the total
concentration limits for barium, cadmium, chromium, lead, nickel, and
cyanide from its conditionally excluded wastewater treatment sludge
from the requirements of the hazardous waste regulations under the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). The waste will still be
subject to local, State, and Federal regulations for nonhazardous solid
wastes.
DATES: Effective August 31, 2005.
ADDRESSES: The RCRA regulatory docket for this final rule is located at
the EPA Library, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4, Sam
Nunn Atlanta Federal Center, 61 Forsyth Street, SW., Atlanta, Georgia
30303, and is available for viewing from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday
through Friday, excluding Federal holidays. The public may copy
material from any regulatory docket at no cost for the first 100 pages,
and at a cost of $0.15 per page for additional copies. For copying at

I. Overview Information
A. What Action Is EPA Finalizing?
After evaluating BMW's petition and public comments received in
response to the November 26, 2004, Proposed Rule (69 FR 68851), we are
amending the current BMW's delisting to eliminate the total
concentration limits for barium, cadmium, chromium, lead, nickel, and
cyanide from its conditionally excluded wastewater treatment sludge
from the requirements of the hazardous waste regulations under the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). The waste will still be
subject to local, State, and Federal regulations for nonhazardous solid
wastes.
B. Why Is EPA Approving This Petition for Amendment?
EPA believes that the information provided by BMW provides a
reasonable basis to eliminate all total concentration limits. We,
therefore, grant BMW an amendment to its current delisting for an
elimination of all total concentration limits on its delisted
wastewater treatment sludge. EPA believes that this amendment to
eliminate all concentration limits will not harm human health and the
environment when disposed in a nonhazardous waste landfill, if the
required delisting levels are met. EPA grants the elimination of all
total concentration limits, based on descriptions of waste management
and waste history, evaluation of the results of waste sample analysis,
on the requirement that BMW's petitioned waste must meet the required
delisting level of all the constituents of concern concentration limits
as state in the May 2, 2001, Final Rule before disposal, and that no
substantial public comments were received during the public comment
period. The petitioned waste will not be subject to regulation under 40
CFR parts 262 through 268 and the permitting standards of 40 CFR part
270. Although management of the waste covered by this petition is
relieved from Subtitle C jurisdiction, the waste will remain a solid
waste under RCRA. As such, the waste must be handled in accordance with
all applicable Federal, State, and local solid waste management
regulations. Pursuant to RCRA section 3007, EPA may also sample and
analyze the waste to determine if delisting conditions are met. EPA
believes that BMW's petitioned waste will not harm human health and the
environment when disposed in a nonhazardous waste landfill if the
delisting levels are met as granted in the May 2, 2001, Final Rule and
amended in this exclusion.
C. What Are the Terms of This Exclusion?
The following summarizes the maximum allowable constituent
concentrations (delisting levels) for BMW's waste. We calculated these
delisting levels for each constituent that is part of BMW's current
delisting based on the Delisting Risk Assessment Software (DRAS) EPA
Composite Model for Leachate Migration with Transformation Products
(EPACMTP) model, which grants BMW an exclusion from the lists of
hazardous wastes in subpart D of 40 CFR part 261 for its petitioned
waste when disposed in a Subtitle D landfill. BMW must meet all of the
following delisting conditions in order for this exclusion to be valid:
delisting levels in mg/l in the TCLP extract of the waste of 100.0 for
Barium, 1.0 for Cadmium, 5.0 for Chromium, 33.6 for Cyanide, 5.0 for
Lead, and 70.3 for Nickel.
This amended exclusion applies to the waste described in the
petition only if the requirements described above as well as in Table 1
of Appendix IX to part 261 of Title 40 of the Code of Federal
Regulations are satisfied. The maximum annual volume of the wastewater
treatment sludge is 2850 cubic yards.
D. When Is the Final Amendment Effective?
This rule is effective August 31, 2005. HSWA amended section 3010
of RCRA to allow rules to become effective in less than six months when
the regulated community does not need the six-month period to come into
compliance. That is the case here because this rule reduces, rather
than increases, the existing requirements for persons generating
hazardous wastes. For these same reasons, this rule can become
effective immediately (that is, upon publication in the Federal
Register) under the Administrative Procedure Act, pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
553(d).
E. How Does This Action Affect States?
Because EPA is issuing today's exclusion under the Federal RCRA
delisting program, only States subject to Federal RCRA delisting
provisions would be directly affected. This would exclude two
categories of States: States having a dual system that includes Federal
RCRA requirements and their own requirements, and States who have
received EPA's authorization to make their own delisting decisions. We
describe these two situations below.
We allow states to impose their own non-RCRA regulatory
requirements that are more stringent than EPA's, under Section 3009 of
RCRA. These more stringent requirements may include a provision that
prohibits a Federally issued exclusion from taking effect in the State,
or that prohibits a Federally issued exclusion from taking effect in
the State until the State approves the exclusion through a separate
State administrative action. Because a dual system (that is, both
Federal and State programs) may regulate a petitioner's waste, we urge
petitioners to contact the applicable State regulatory authorities or
agencies to establish the status of their waste under that State's
program.
We have also authorized some States to administer a delisting
program in place of the Federal program; that is, to make State
delisting decisions. Therefore, this exclusion does not necessarily
apply within those authorized States. If BMW transports the petitioned
waste to, or manages the waste in, any State with delisting
authorization, BMW must obtain delisting approval from that State
before it can manage the waste as nonhazardous in that State.
In order for this amendment to be effective in an authorized State,
that State must adopt this amendment through its State administrative
process.
II. Background
A. What Is a Delisting Petition?
A delisting petition is a formal request from a generator to EPA or
another agency with jurisdiction to exclude from the lists of hazardous
waste regulated by RCRA, a waste that the generator believes should not
be considered hazardous.
B. What Regulations Allow Hazardous Waste Generators To Delist Waste?
Under 40 CFR 260.20 and 260.22, a generator may petition EPA to
remove its waste from hazardous waste control by excluding it from the
lists of hazardous wastes contained in 40 CFR 261.31, 261.32 and
261.33. Specifically, 40 CFR 260.20 allows any person to
[[Page 51640]]
petition the Administrator to modify or revoke any provision of parts
260 through 266, 268 and 273 of Title 40 of the Code of Federal
Regulations. 40 CFR 260.22 provides generators the opportunity to
petition the Administrator to exclude a waste on a ``generator-
specific'' basis from the hazardous waste lists. A generator can
petition EPA for an amendment to an existing exclusion under these same
provisions of the Code of Federal Regulations.
C. What Information Must the Generator Supply?
A petitioner must provide sufficient information to allow EPA to
determine that the waste to be excluded does not meet any of the
criteria under which the waste was listed as a hazardous waste. In
addition, the Administrator must determine that the waste is not
hazardous for any other reason.
III. EPA's Evaluation of the Waste Data
A. What Waste Is the Subject of This Amendment?
BMW in Greer, South Carolina, manufactures automobiles for domestic
consumption and for shipment to foreign markets. The assembly plant
operations include body welding, conversion coating, painting, final
assembly, and shipment. The manufacturing process that causes F019 to
be generated is conversion coating, when applied to automobile bodies
that contain aluminum. Conversion coating takes place in the plant's
paint shop and treats the metal surface of each automobile body before
painting to provide resistance to corrosion and to prepare the metal
surface for optimum paint adhesion. Wastewater from all plant
operations is treated at BMW's wastewater pretreatment plant which is
located in an area of the paint shop. The wastewater is treated to meet
the requirements of BMW's wastewater pretreatment permit before
discharging the water to the publicly owned treatment works (POTW).
Treatment results in the formation of insoluble metal hydroxides and
phosphates. Wastewater treatment sludge is generated when these metal
hydroxides and phosphates are dewatered in a filter press. The sludge
that exits from the filter press is classified as F019 when the
automobile bodies contain aluminum, and the exit from the filter press
will be the point of generation of F019. BMW was granted its current
Federal delisting exclusion for this F019 wastewater treatment sludge
at a maximum annual volume of 2,850 cubic yards on May 2, 2001 (66 FR
21877).
A full description of this waste and the Agency's evaluation of the
original BMW's petition are contained in the ``Proposed Rule and
Request for Comments'' published in the Federal Register on February
12, 2001 (66 FR 9781). After evaluating public comment on the proposed
rule, we published a final decision in the Federal Register on May 2,
2001 (66 FR 21877), to exclude BMW's wastewater treatment sludge
derived from the treatment of EPA Hazardous Waste No. F019 from the
list of hazardous wastes found in 40 CFR 261.31. The hazardous
constituents of concern for which F019 was listed are hexavalent
chromium and cyanide (complexed). BMW petitioned the EPA to exclude its
F019 waste because BMW does not use either of these constituents in the
manufacturing process. Therefore, BMW did not believe that the waste
meets the criteria of the listing. EPA's final decision to grant the
delisting exclusion on May 2, 2001, was conditioned on the following
delisting levels: (1) Delisting levels in mg/l in the TCLP extract of
the waste of 100.0 for Barium, 1.0 for Cadmium, 5.0 for Chromium, 33.6
for Cyanide, 5.0 for Lead, and 70.3 for Nickel; (2) the total
concentration of cyanide (total, not amenable) in the waste, not the
waste leachate, must not exceed 200 mg/kg; (3) the total
concentrations, in mg/kg, of metals in the waste, not the waste
leachate, must not exceed 2,000 for Barium, 500 for Cadmium, 1,000 for
Chromium, 2,000 for Lead, and 20,000 for Nickel. If the waste exceeded
any of the delisting limits, then the waste has to be managed as
hazardous waste.
C. How Did EPA Evaluate This Petition?
In support of its original petition, BMW submitted: (1)
Descriptions of its manufacturing and wastewater treatment processes,
the generation point of the petitioned waste, and the manufacturing
steps that will contribute to its generation; (2) Material Safety Data
Sheets (MSDSs) for materials used to manufacture automobiles and to
treat wastewater; (3) the minimum and maximum annual amounts of
wastewater treatment sludge generated from 1996 through 1999, and an
estimate of the maximum annual amount expected to be generated in the
future; (4) results of analysis for metals, cyanide, sulfide, fluoride,
and volatile organic compounds in the currently generated waste at the
BMW plants in Greer, South Carolina, and Dingolfing, Germany; (5)
results of the analysis of leachate obtained by means of the Toxicity
Characteristic Leaching Procedure ((TCLP), SW-846 Method 1311), from
these wastes; (6) results of the determinations for the hazardous
characteristics of ignitability, corrosivity, and reactivity, in these
wastes; (7) results of determinations of dry weight percent, bulk
density, and free liquids in these wastes; and (8) results of the MEP
analysis of the currently generated waste at the plant in Greer, South
Carolina.
EPA reviewed the allowable total concentrations in the waste, as
calculated by DRAS for the waste, to determine if eliminating the total
concentration limits for the constituents of concern would be still
protective to human health and the environment. The allowable total
concentrations, according to the DRAS, were all at least 1,000 times
greater than the actual maximum total concentrations found in the
waste. Based on the DRAS results, EPA grants BMW's petition for
amendment to eliminate all total concentration limits.
IV. Public Comments on the Proposed Amendment
A. Who Submitted Comments on the Proposed Rule?
EPA received public comments on the proposed noticed published on
November 26, 2004, from Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers; The
Aluminum Association; BMW Manufacturing Co., LLC; Donald Humphrey; and
EPA. All commenters were supportive of the proposal except Donald
Humphrey.
B. Comments and Responses From EPA
Comment: On October 30, 2002, (67 FR 66251), EPA's Office of Solid
Waste proposed the Methods Innovation Rule (MIR) to remove from the
regulations unnecessary requirements to use only SW-846 Methods other
than those considered to be Method Defined Parameters (MDP). The Agency
is no longer generally requiring the use of only SW-846 Methods for
regulatory applications other than those involving MDPs. The general
purpose of this rule is to allow more flexibility when conducting RCRA-
related sampling and analysis activities.
Response: EPA has revised Table 1: (2) Verification Testing
Requirements: in Appendix IX of this Final Rule with appropriate
language.
Comment: The Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers, the Aluminum
Association, and BMW believe the F019 listing itself should be revised
to exclude wastewater treatment sludges from automotive industry
conversion coating on aluminum when hexavalent chromium and cyanides
are not used in the process.
[[Page 51641]]
Response: Today's final rule is site-specific and waste-specific;
it applies only to BMW's plant in Greer, South Carolina, and only to
the petitioned waste. EPA understands the commenters' concern, but it
is outside the scope of this delisting.
Comment: Donald Humphrey disagreed with granting this final rule,
because he feels that BMW must abide by the rules of RCRA.
Response: On January 16, 1981, as part of its final and interim
final regulations implementing section 3001 of RCRA, EPA published an
amended list of hazardous wastes from non-specific and specific
sources. This list has been amended several times, and is published in
40 CFR 261.31 and 261.32. These wastes are listed as hazardous because
they exhibit one or more of the characteristics of hazardous wastes
identified in Subpart C of part 261 (i.e., ignitability, corrosivity,
reactivity, and toxicity) or meet the criteria for listing contained in
section 261.11(a)(2) or (a)(3). Individual waste streams may vary,
however, depending on raw materials, industrial processes, and other
factors. Thus, while a waste that is described in these regulations
generally is hazardous, a specific waste from an individual facility
meeting the listing description may not be. For this reason, sections
260.20 and 260.22 provide an exclusion procedure, allowing BMW to
demonstrate that its F019 waste from its specific facility should not
be regulated as a hazardous waste. BMW has complied with the
requirements of sections 260.20 and 260.22, and therefore, is having
its petition to amend an exclusion (or delisting) from the lists of
hazardous waste granted.
V. Administrative Assessments
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this
action is not a rule of general applicability and therefore is not a
``regulatory action'' subject to review by the Office of Management and
Budget. Because this action is a rule of particular applicability
relating to a particular facility, it is not subject to the regulatory
flexibility provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601
et seq.), or to sections 202, 203, and 205 of the Unfunded Mandates
Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Pub. L. 104-4). Because the rule will affect
only one facility, it will not significantly or uniquely affect small
governments, as specified in section 203 of UMRA, or communities of
Indian tribal governments, as specified in Executive Order 13175 (65 FR
67249, November 6, 2000). For the same reason, this rule will not have
substantial direct effects on the States, on the relationship between
the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power
and responsibilities among the various levels of government, as
specified in Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999). This
rule also is not subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April
23, 1997), because it is not economically significant.
This rule does not involve technical standards; thus, the
requirements of section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272) do not apply. This rule does
not impose an information collection burden under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). The
Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq. as added by the Small
Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. Section 804 exempts from section 801 the following types
of rules (1) Rules of particular applicability; (2) rules relating to
agency management or personnel; and (3) rules of agency organization,
procedure, or practice that do not substantially affect the rights or
obligations of non-agency parties (5 U.S.C. 804(3)). EPA is not
required to submit a rule report regarding today's action under section
801 because this is a rule of particular applicability.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Facility Address Waste description
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* * * * * * *
BMW Manufacturing Co., LLC........... Greer, South Carolina.......... Wastewater treatment sludge (EPA
Hazardous Waste No. F019) that BMW
Manufacturing Corporation (BMW)
generates by treating wastewater from
automobile assembly plant located on
Highway 101 South in Greer, South
Carolina. This is a conditional
exclusion for up to 2,850 cubic yards
of waste (hereinafter referred to as
``BMW Sludge'') that will be generated
each year and disposed in a Subtitle D
landfill after August 31, 2005. With
prior approval by the EPA, following a
public comment period, BMW may also
beneficially reuse the sludge. BMW must
demonstrate that the following
conditions are met for the exclusion to
be valid.
(1) Delisting Levels: All leachable
concentrations for these metals and
cyanide must not exceed the following
levels (ppm): Barium-100; Cadmium-1;
Chromium-5; Cyanide-33.6, Lead-5; and
Nickel-70.3. These metal and cyanide
concentrations must be measured in the
waste leachate obtained by the method
specified in 40 CFR 261.24, except that
for cyanide, deionized water must be
the leaching medium. Cyanide
concentrations in waste or leachate
must be measured by the method
specified in 40 CFR 268.40, Note 7.
[[Page 51642]]
(2) Annual Verification Testing
Requirements: Sample collection and
analyses, including quality control
procedures, must be performed using
appropriate methods. As applicable to
the method-defined parameters of
concern, analyses requiring the use of
SW-846 methods incorporated by
reference in 40 CFR 260.11 must be used
without substitution. As applicable,
the SW-846 methods might include
Methods 0010, 0011, 0020, 0023A, 0030,
0031, 0040, 0050, 0051, 0060, 0061,
1010A, 1020B, 1110A, 1310B, 1311, 1312,
1320, 1330A, 9010C, 9012B, 9040C,
9045D, 9060A, 9070A, (uses EPA Method
1664, Rev. A), 9071B, and 9095B.
Methods must meet Performance Based
Measurement System Criteria in which
the Data Quality Objectives are to
demonstrate that representative samples
of the BMW Sludge meet the delisting
levels in Condition (1). (A) Annual
Verification Testing: BMW must
implement an annual testing program to
demonstrate that constituent
concentrations measured in the TCLP
extract do not exceed the delisting
levels established in Condition (1).
(3) Waste Holding and Handling: BMW must
hold sludge containers utilized for
verification sampling until composite
sample results are obtained. If the
levels of constituents measured in the
composite samples of BMW Sludge do not
exceed the levels set forth in
Condition (1), then the BMW Sludge is
non-hazardous and must be managed in
accordance with all applicable solid
waste regulations. If constituent
levels in a composite sample exceed any
of the delisting levels set forth in
Condition (1), the batch of BMW Sludge
generated during the time period
corresponding to this sample must be
managed and disposed of in accordance
with Subtitle C of RCRA.
(4) Changes in Operating Conditions: BMW
must notify EPA in writing when
significant changes in the
manufacturing or wastewater treatment
processes are implemented. EPA will
determine whether these changes will
result in additional constituents of
concern. If so, EPA will notify BMW in
writing that the BMW Sludge must be
managed as hazardous waste F019 until
BMW has demonstrated that the wastes
meet the delisting levels set forth in
Condition (1) and any levels
established by EPA for the additional
constituents of concern, and BMW has
received written approval from EPA. If
EPA determines that the changes do not
result in additional constituents of
concern, EPA will notify BMW, in
writing, that BMW must verify that the
BMW Sludge continues to meet Condition
(1) delisting levels.
(5) Data Retention: Records of
analytical data from Condition (2) must
be compiled, summarized, and maintained
by BMW for a minimum of three years,
and must be furnished upon request by
EPA or the State of South Carolina, and
made available for inspection. Failure
to maintain the required records for
the specified time will be considered
by EPA, at its discretion, sufficient
basis to revoke the exclusion to the
extent directed by EPA. All data must
be accompanied by a signed copy of the
certification statement in 40 CFR
260.22(i)(12).
(6) Reopener Language: (A) If, at any
time after disposal of the delisted
waste, BMW possesses or is otherwise
made aware of any environmental data
(including but not limited to leachate
data or groundwater monitoring data) or
any other data relevant to the delisted
waste indicating that any constituent
identified in the delisting
verification testing is at a level
higher than the delisting level allowed
by EPA in granting the petition, BMW
must report the data, in writing, to
EPA and South Carolina within 10 days
of first possessing or being made aware
of that data. (B) If the testing of the
waste, as required by Condition (2)(A),
does not meet the delisting
requirements of Condition (1), BMW must
report the data, in writing, to EPA and
South Carolina within 10 days of first
possessing or being made aware of that
data. (C) Based on the information
described in paragraphs (6)(A) or
(6)(B) and any other information
received from any source, EPA will make
a preliminary determination as to
whether the reported information
requires that EPA take action to
protect human health or the
environment. Further action may include
suspending or revoking the exclusion,
or other appropriate response necessary
to protect human health and the
environment. (D) If EPA determines that
the reported information does require
Agency action, EPA will notify the
facility in writing of the action
believed necessary to protect human
health and the environment. The notice
shall include a statement of the
proposed action and a statement
providing BMW with an opportunity to
present information as to why the
proposed action is not necessary. BMW
shall have 10 days from the date of
EPA's notice to present such
information. (E) Following the receipt
of information from BMW, as described
in paragraph (6)(D), or if no such
information is received within 10 days,
EPA will issue a final written
determination describing the Agency
actions that are necessary to protect
human health or the environment, given
the information received in accordance
with paragraphs (6)(A) or (6)(B). Any
required action described in EPA's
determination shall become effective
immediately, unless EPA provides
otherwise.
[[Page 51643]]
(7) Notification Requirements: BMW must
provide a one-time written notification
to any State Regulatory Agency in a
State to which or through which the
delisted waste described above will be
transported, at least 60 days prior to
the commencement of such activities.
Failure to provide such a notification
will result in a violation of the
delisting conditions and a possible
revocation of the decision to delist.
