RCRA Compliance at Cleanup Sites: Waste Characterization & Listed Hazardous Waste Webinar

Slides: www.newmoa.org/events/docs/390_351/2019_10_24_Webinar_Waste_Characterization.pdf

The webinar covered what waste site cleanup staff and managers need to know about the definition of solid and hazardous waste and characteristic and listed hazardous wastes. It emphasized how critical waste determination is as the starting point to ensuring that a site cleanup complies with RCRA C requirements. Ross Bunnell, Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (CT DEEP) was the presenter. Mr. Bunnell has many years of experience in the RCRA program in Connecticut, having worked in RCRA permitting, enforcement, and most recently, policy development, education, and outreach. He included case studies and examples to illustrate key points in his presentation. In developing his presentation, he worked with colleagues from the other states in the Northeast to make sure the information applies to all of the states in the region. 

This was the first in a four-part series to take place over the fall of 2019 and winter 2020 and cover key RCRA compliance topics that can affect site cleanups.
