Chaparral Steel Midlothian, Texas Leachate from Landfill No. 3,
Midlothian, L.P. storm water from the baghouse
area, and other K061 wastewaters
which have been pumped to tank
storage (at a maximum generation
of 2500 cubic yards or 500,000
gallons per calender year) (EPA
Hazardous Waste No. K061)
generated at Chaparral Steel
Midlothian, L.P., Midlothian,
Texas, and is managed as
nonhazardous solid waste after
February 23, 2000.
Chaparral Steel must implement a
testing program that meets the
following conditions for the
exclusion to be valid:
(1) Delisting Levels: All
concentrations for the
constituent total lead in the
approximately 2,500 cubic yards
(500,000 gallons) per calender
year of raw leachate from
Landfill No. 3, storm water from
the baghouse area, and other K061
wastewaters that is transferred
from the storage tank to
nonhazardous management must not
exceed 0.69 mg/l (ppm).
Constituents must be measured in
the waste by appropriate methods.
As applicable to the method-
defined parameters of concern,
analyses requiring the use of SW-
846 methods incorporated by
reference in 40 CFR 260.11 must
be used without substitution. As
applicable, the SW-846 methods
might include Methods 0010, 0011,
0020, 0023A, 0030, 0031, 0040,
0050, 0051, 0060, 0061, 1010A,
1020B, 1110A, 1310B, 1311, 1312,
1320, 1330A, 9010C, 9012B, 9040C,
9045D, 9060A, 9070A (uses EPA
Method 1664, Rev. A), 9071B, and
9095B.
(2) Waste Holding and Handling:
Chaparral Steel must store as
hazardous all leachate waste from
Landfill No. 3, storm water from
the bag house area, and other
K061 wastewaters until
verification testing as specified
in Condition (3), is completed
and valid analyses demonstrate
that condition (1) is satisfied.
If the levels of constituents
measured in the samples of the
waste do not exceed the levels
set forth in Condition (1), then
the waste is nonhazardous and may
be managed and disposed of in
accordance with all applicable
solid waste regulations. If
constituent levels in a sample
exceed the delisting levels set
in Condition (1), the waste
volume corresponding to this
sample must be treated until
delisting levels are met or
returned to the original storage
tank. Treatment is designated as
precipitation, flocculation, and
filtering in a wastewater
treatment system to remove metals
from the wastewater. Treatment
residuals precipitated will be
designated as a hazardous waste.
If the delisting level cannot be
met, then the waste must be
managed and disposed of in
accordance with subtitle C of
RCRA.
(3) Verification Testing
Requirements: Sample collection
and analyses, including quality
control procedures, must be
performed using appropriate
methods. As applicable to the
method-defined parameters of
concern, analyses requiring the
use of SW-846 methods
incorporated by reference in 40
CFR 260.11 must be used without
substitution. As applicable, the
SW-846 methods might include
Methods 0010, 0011, 0020, 0023A,
0030, 0031, 0040, 0050, 0051,
0060, 0061, 1010A, 1020B, 1110A,
1310B, 1311, 1312, 1320, 1330A,

9060A, 9070A (uses EPA Method
1664, Rev. A), 9071B, and 9095B.
Chaparral Steel must analyze one
composite sample from each batch
of untreated wastewater
transferred from the hazardous
waste storage tank to non-
hazardous waste management. Each
composited batch sample must be
analyzed, prior to non-hazardous
management of the waste in the
batch represented by that sample,
for the constituent lead as
listed in Condition (1).
Chaparral may treat the waste as
specified in Condition (2). If
EPA judges the treatment process
to be effective during the
operating conditions used during
the initial verification testing,
Chaparral Steel may replace the
testing requirement in Condition
(3)(A) with the testing
requirement in Condition (3)(B).
Chaparral must continue to test
as specified in (3)(A) until and
unless notified by EPA or
designated authority that testing
in Condition (3)(A) may be
replaced by Condition (3)(B).
(A) Initial Verification Testing:
Representative composite samples
from the first eight (8) full-
scale treated batches of
wastewater from the K061 leachate/
wastewater storage tank must be
analyzed for the constituent lead
as listed in Condition (1),
Chaparral must report to EPA the
operational and analytical test
data, including quality control
information, obtained from these
initial full scale treatment
batches within 90 days of the
eighth treatment batch.
(B) Subsequent Verification
Testing: Following notification
by EPA, Chaparral Steel may
substitute the testing conditions
in (3)(B) for (3)(A). Chaparral
Steel must analyze representative
composite samples from the
treated full scale batches on an
annual basis. If delisting levels
for any constituent listed in
Condition (1) are exceeded in the
annual sample, Chaparral must
reinstitute complete testing as
required in Condition (3)(A). As
stated in Condition (3) Chaparral
must continue to test all batches
of untreated waste to determine
if delisting criteria are met
before managing the wastewater
from the K061 tank as
nonhazardous.
(4) Changes in Operating
Conditions: If Chaparral Steel
significantly changes the
treatment process established
under Condition (3) (e.g., use of
new treatment agents), Chaparral
Steel must notify the Agency in
writing. After written approval
by EPA, Chaparral Steel may
handle the wastes generated as
non-hazardous, if the wastes meet
the delisting levels set in
Condition (1).
(5) Data Submittals: Records of
operating conditions and
analytical data from Condition
(3) must be compiled, summarized,
and maintained on site for a
minimum of five years. These
records and data must be
furnished upon request by EPA, or
the State of Texas, or both, and
be made available for inspection.
Failure to submit the required
data within the specified time
period or maintain the required
records on site for the specified
time will be considered by EPA,
at its discretion, sufficient
basis to reopen the exclusion as
described in Paragraph (6). All
data must be accompanied by a
signed copy of the following
certification statement to attest
to the truth and accuracy of the

section(s) of this document for
which I cannot personally verify
its (their) truth and accuracy, I
certify as the company official
having supervisory responsibility
for the persons who, acting under
my direct instructions, made the
verification that this
information is true, accurate and
complete.
In the event that any of this
information is determined by EPA
in its sole discretion to be
false, inaccurate or incomplete,
and upon conveyance of this fact
to the company, I recognize and

(6)(A) and any other information
received from any source, the
Regional Administrator or his
delegate will make a preliminary
determination as to whether the
reported information requires
Agency action to protect human
health or the environment.
Further action may include
suspending, or revoking the
exclusion, or other appropriate
response necessary to protect
human health and the environment.
(C) If the Regional Administrator
or his delegate determines that
the reported information does
require Agency action, the
Regional Administrator or his
delegate will notify the facility
in writing of the actions the
Regional Administrator or his
delegate believes are necessary
to protect human health and the
environment. The notice shall
include a statement of the
proposed action and a statement
providing the facility with an
opportunity to present
information as to why the
proposed Agency action is not
necessary. The facility shall
have 10 days from the date of the
Regional Administrator or
delegate's notice to present such
information.
(D) Following the receipt of
information from the facility
described in paragraph (6)(C) or
(if no information is presented
under paragraph (6)(C)) the
initial receipt of information
described in paragraph (5) or
(6)(A), the Regional
Administrator or his delegate
will issue a final written
determination describing the
Agency actions that are necessary

environment. Any required action
described in the Regional
Administrator or delegate's
determination shall become
effective immediately, unless the
Regional Administrator or his
delegate provides otherwise.
(7) Notification Requirements:
Chaparral Steel must provide a
one-time written notification to
any State Regulatory Agency to
which or through which the
delisted waste described above
will be transported for disposal
at least 60 days prior to the
commencement of such activity.
The one-time written notification
must be updated if the delisted
waste is shipped to a different
disposal facility. Failure to
provide such a notification will
result in a violation of the
delisting petition and a possible
revocation of the decision.
Conversion Horsham, Chemically Stabilized Electric Arc
Systems, Inc. Pennsylvania. Furnace Dust (CSEAFD) that is
generated by Conversion Systems,
Inc. (CSI) (using the Super
DetoxTM treatment process as
modified by CSI to treat EAFD
(EPA Hazardous Waste No. K061))
at the following sites and that
is disposed of in Subtitle D
landfills:
Northwestern Steel, Sterling,
Illinois after June 13, 1995.
CSI must implement a testing
program for each site that meets
the following conditions for the
exclusion to be valid:
(1) Verification Testing
Requirements: Sample collection
and analyses, including quality
control procedures, must be
performed using appropriate
methods. As applicable to the
method-defined parameters of
concern, analyses requiring the
use of SW-846 methods
incorporated by reference in 40
CFR 260.11 must be used without
substitution. As applicable, the
SW-846 methods might include
Methods 0010, 0011, 0020, 0023A,
0030, 0031, 0040, 0050, 0051,
0060, 0061, 1010A, 1020B, 1110A,
1310B, 1311, 1312, 1320, 1330A,
9010C, 9012B, 9040C, 9045D,
9060A, 9070A (uses EPA Method
1664, Rev. A), 9071B, and 9095B.
(A) Initial Verification Testing:
During the first 20 operating
days of full-scale operation of a
newly constructed Super DetoxTM
treatment facility, CSI must
analyze a minimum of four (4)
composite samples of CSEAFD
representative of the full 20-day
period. Composites must be
comprised of representative
samples collected from every
batch generated. The CSEAFD
samples must be analyzed for the
constituents listed in Condition
(3). CSI must report the
operational and analytical test
data, including quality control
information, obtained during this
initial period no later than 60
days after the generation of the
first batch of CSEAFD.
(B) Addition of New Super DetoxTM
Treatment Facilities to
Exclusion: If the Agency's review
of the data obtained during
initial verification testing
indicates that the CSEAFD
generated by a specific Super
DetoxTM treatment facility
consistently meets the delisting
levels specified in Condition
(3), the Agency will publish a
notice adding to this exclusion
the location of the new Super
DetoxTM treatment facility and
the name of the steel mill
contracting CSI's services. If
the Agency's review of the data
obtained during initial
verification testing indicates
that the CSEAFD generated by a
specific Super DetoxTM treatment
facility fails to consistently
meet the conditions of the
exclusion, the Agency will not
publish the notice adding the new
facility.
(C) Subsequent Verification
Testing: For the Sterling,
Illinois facility and any new
facility subsequently added to
CSI's conditional multiple-site
exclusion, CSI must collect and
analyze at least one composite
sample of CSEAFD each month. The
composite samples must be
composed of representative
samples collected from all
batches treated in each month.
These monthly representative
samples must be analyzed, prior
to the disposal of the CSEAFD,
for the constituents listed in
Condition (3). CSI may, at its
discretion, analyze composite
samples gathered more frequently
to demonstrate that smaller
batches of waste are
nonhazardous.
(2) Waste Holding and Handling:
CSI must store as hazardous all
CSEAFD generated until
verification testing as specified
in Conditions (1)(A) and (1)(C),
as appropriate, is completed and
valid analyses demonstrate that
Condition (3) is satisfied. If
the levels of constituents
measured in the samples of CSEAFD
do not exceed the levels set
forth in Condition (3), then the
CSEAFD is non-hazardous and may
be disposed of in Subtitle D
landfills. If constituent levels
in a sample exceed any of the
delisting levels set in Condition
(3), the CSEAFD generated during
the time period corresponding to
this sample must be retreated
until it meets these levels, or
managed and disposed of in
accordance with Subtitle C of
RCRA. CSEAFD generated by a new
CSI treatment facility must be
managed as a hazardous waste
prior to the addition of the name
and location of the facility to
the exclusion. After addition of
the new facility to the
exclusion, CSEAFD generated
during the verification testing
in Condition (1)(A) is also non-
hazardous, if the delisting
levels in Condition (3) are
satisfied.
(3) Delisting Levels: All
leachable concentrations for
those metals must not exceed the
following levels (ppm):
Antimony_0.06; arsenic_0.50;
barium_7.6; beryllium_0.010;
cadmium_0.050; chromium_0.33;
lead_0.15; mercury_0.009;
nickel_1; selenium_0.16;
silver_0.30; thallium_0.020;
vanadium_2; and zinc_70. Metal
concentrations must be measured
in the waste leachate by the
method specified in 40 CFR
261.24.
(4) Changes in Operating
Conditions: After initiating
subsequent testing as described
in Condition (1)(C), if CSI
significantly changes the
stabilization process established
under Condition (1) (e.g., use of
new stabilization reagents), CSI
must notify the Agency in
writing. After written approval
by EPA, CSI may handle CSEAFD
wastes generated from the new
process as non-hazardous, if the
wastes meet the delisting levels
set in Condition (3).
(5) Data Submittals: At least one
month prior to operation of a new
Super DetoxTM treatment facility,
CSI must notify, in writing, the
Chief of the Waste Identification
Branch (see address below) when
the Super DetoxTM treatment
facility is scheduled to be on-
line. The data obtained through
Condition (1)(A) must be
submitted to the Branch Chief of
the Waste Identification Branch,
OSW (Mail Code 5304), U.S. EPA,
1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW.,
Washington, DC 20460 within the
time period specified. Records of
operating conditions and
analytical data from Condition
(1) must be compiled, summarized,
and maintained on site for a
minimum of five years. These
records and data must be
furnished upon request by EPA, or
the State in which the CSI
facility is located, and made
available for inspection. Failure
to submit the required data
within the specified time period
or maintain the required records
on site for the specified time
will be considered by EPA, at its
discretion, sufficient basis to
revoke the exclusion to the
extent directed by EPA. All data
must be accompanied by a signed
copy of the following
certification statement to attest
to the truth and accuracy of the
data submitted:
