EPA Proposes Regulations for Hazardous Waste Management in Dye and Pigment Industries

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to classify five hazardous wastes generated during the production of dyes and pigments as hazardous due to potential health and environmental risks. The proposal also considers listing six other wastes from this industry as non-hazardous and deferring action on three wastes due to insufficient information.
