Title: Identification of Non-Hazardous Materials That Are Solid Wastes 
Abstract: The Agency is assessing whether certain non-hazardous secondary materials are or are not solid waste under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). This in turn will assist the Agency in developing certain standards under sections 112 and 129 of the Clean Air Act (CAA). If the material is considered a "solid waste," then the unit that burns the secondary material would be subject to CAA section 129 requirements. The meaning of "solid waste" as defined under RCRA is important because CAA section 129, which regulates emissions from sources that combust solid wastes, states that the term "solid waste" shall have the meaning "established by the Administrator [pursuant to RCRA]."
