Underground Injection Control Program; Hazardous Waste Injection Restrictions; Petition for ExemptionClass I Hazardous Waste InjectionASARCO, Inc. (ASARCO)

Notice is hereby given that an exemption to the land disposal restrictions under the 1984 Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act has been granted to ASARCO, for the Class I injection wells located at Amarillo, Texas. As required by 40 CFR Part 148, the company has adequately demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Environmental Protection Agency by petition and supporting documentation that, to a reasonable degree of certainty, there will be no migration of hazardous constituents from the injection zone for as long as the waste remains hazardous. This final decision allows ASARCO, to inject specific restricted hazardous wastes identified in the exemption, into the Class I hazardous waste injection wells at the Amarillo, Texas facility, for as long as the basis for granting an approval of this exemption remains valid, under provisions of 40 CFR 148.24. As required by 40 CFR 124.10, a public notice was issued August 8, 1996. The public comment period ended on September 23, 1996. No comments were received. This decision constitutes final Agency action and there is no Administrative appeal.
