Full-Scale Incineration System Demonstration at the Naval Battalion Construction Center, Gulfport, Mississippi. Volume 8. Delisting

Abstract

Volume VIII documents the regulatory and technical lessons learned concerning disposition of soil after treatment. The report also documents the data collected in support of soil disposition. It explains EPA's use of the Vertical Horizontal Spread/Organic Leachate Model (VHS/OLM) to show the health risk of a hazardous waste site. Field operations and subsequent analyses were undertaken to support delisting of the soil, including the verification test burn, a RCRA trial burn, and data collected during routine operations. Conclusions are presented that can be drawn from the delisting process. It examines problems with EPA's Practical Quantitation Limits and VHS/OLM, the cost and level of effort, the technical complexity, the required concentrations needed for delisting, and the Air Force response to EPA's implied delisting denial. Six recommendations are offered to anyone considering submission of a delisting petition for a hazardous waste.
