Intended Audience:
Participants will learn shortcuts, such as Assumption Rules for
PCB concentrations, as well as the requirements, as amended, for inspecting,
marking, storing, and record keeping of PCBs and PCB Items. Participants will
also learn about the new disposal provisions for PCB remediation waste, PCB
bulk product waste, PCB/radioactive waste, and wastes from research and
development activities.
Course Description:
This course is an update of the previous DOE course on the
Management of Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs). On June 29, 1998, EPA issued
the 250-page PCB Disposal Amendments (63 FR 35384). The amendments include many
significant changes that will ease the compliance burden on the regulated
community in accordance with the initiative of Reinventing Environmental
Regulations. The course provides an overview of the PCB regulations with an
emphasis on PCB disposal. Participants will learn shortcuts, such as Assumption
Rules for PCB concentrations, as well as the requirements, as amended, for
inspecting, marking, storing, and recordkeeping of PCBs and PCB Items.
Participants will also learn about the new disposal provisions for PCB
remediation waste, PCB bulk product waste, PCB/radioactive waste, and wastes
from research and development activities. A copy of a Guidance Booklet on the
Storage and Disposal of PCB Waste will be provided. A quiz after each section
offers in-class opportunities to apply the knowledge acquired and to evaluate
student learning.
Learning modules include the following: Background PCB information
(physical, chemical, and toxicological properties), 40 CFR 761 Subpart A -
General (applicability, categorizing PCBs, establishing the PCB concentration,
and determining whether material is a PCB waste), 40 CFR 761 Subpart B -
Prohibitions and Authorizations (manufacture, processing, distribution in
commerce, and use; servicing, reclassification, and inspection), 40 CFR 761
Subpart C - Marking, 40 CFR 761 Subparts B and D - Storage for Reuse and
Storage for Disposal, 40 CFR 761 Subpart B - Burning Used Oil, 40 CFR 761
Subpart D - Disposal (general requirements, bulk PCB liquids, and PCB Items),
40 CFR 761.61 - PCB Remediation Waste, 40 CFR 761 Subpart D - PCB Bulk Product
Waste and Other Wastes, 40 CFR 761.79 - Decontamination, TSCA PCB Coordinated
Approvals, 40 CFR 761 Subparts J and K – Record keeping, Reporting, and
Notification
Comments:
PCB was designated by the Department of Energy Environmental
Training Partnership as the "best-in-class" course in the Advanced
TSCA topical Area.
