Publication ID: Fall 2010

Title: Withdrawal of Expansion of RCRA Comparable Fuels Exclusion
Abstract: EPA promulgated the withdrawal of the ECF (emission comparable fuel) exclusion on June 15, 2010. These are fuels produced from hazardous secondary materials which, when burned in industrial boilers under specified conditions, generate emissions that are comparable to emissions from burning fuel oil in those boilers. EPA withdrew the ECF conditional exclusion because ECF appears to be better regarded as being a discarded material and regulated as a hazardous waste. The exclusions for comparable fuel and synthesis gas fuel are not addressed or otherwise affected by this rule.
