Title: Proposed Regulatory Amendments on Recycling of Hazardous Wastes in Fertilizers | |
Abstract: This rulemaking is intended to revise the current RCRA regulations that apply to recycling of hazardous wastes in the manufacture of zinc fertilizers. Specifically, it is intended to establish a more consistent application of these recycling requirements to zinc fertilizer products, to establish a set of standards for contaminants in RCRA-regulated zinc fertilizers that are more appropriate to fertilizers and are protective of human health and the environment, and to specify more appropriate, protective conditions for management of zinc-bearing hazardous secondary materials prior to recycling. These regulatory revisions are expected to directly affect companies that manufacture zinc fertilizers from hazardous secondary materials, and is likely to benefit such manufacturers that are small businesses by removing certain regulatory disincentives to legitimate recycling activities. | |
