Coal Ash Ponds and Ash Disposal Issues Webinar - Part I - Hot Topic Hour January 13, 2011
Two very enlightening days of discussions on the CCR issue. The extended period for public comments on the proposed rule on Coal Combustion Residuals (CCR) (commonly referred to as coal ash) concluded on November 18, 2010. According to the speakers we can expect a final rule promulgated in 2011 or 2012. The big question is “Will the final rule classify CCR as special wastes subject to regulation under Subtitle C of RCRA (Resource Conservation and Recovery Act) when destined for disposal in landfills or surface impoundments (essentially hazardous waste) or as non-hazardous wastes regulated under Subtitle D of RCRA?” If EPA decides to classify CCR as “hazardous,” under Subtitle C, EPA would create federally enforceable requirements for ash management, including waste generation, transportation and disposal. If CCR is declared non hazardous, under Subtitle D, EPA would only mandate a set of minimum national standards and leave it up to state governments and citizen litigation to enforce them.

EPA Has the Ball by Tom Adams, American Coal Ash Association - Hot Topic Hour January 13, 2011
Tom Adams, Executive Director American Coal Ash Association (ACAA), explains that there is a wide range of opinion on what the impact of a hazardous waste regulation would be on the future of beneficial use of CCP. The agency believes it can exempt preferred beneficial uses from any hazardous waste regulations, and markets for those preferred beneficial uses will be unaffected, at the least, or flourish as generators will invest in technologies to make their CCP more attractive to the end users. In over eighteen months of discussions with CCP marketers, project owners, engineers and architects, contractors, material producers and other stakeholders, the ACAA has determined that the U.S. EPA is wrong in its prediction of market behavior. The stigma of association with hazardous waste regulations and potential liability exposure are primary concerns in the marketplace.
