Title: NESHAP: Site Remediation Amendments--Response to Litigation 
Abstract: The Site Remediation regulation was promulgated on October 8, 2003. We were challenged by the Sierra Club on several provisions in the rule. The main issues involve exemptions to the rule's requirements for cleanups performed under Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) or Superfund authorities, and an exemption for units handling radioactive mixed waste. We anticipate that settlement negotiations will result in certain revisions to the rule’s requirements, possibly removing exemptions for certain sources thereby increasing the compliance costs of the final rule by up to $7.7 million due to an increase the number or sources that must comply with the rule.
