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.
