1072. 3(b) 1072. 3(c)

• Completed hazardous and residual waste manifests for Department signature.

• Bill of Lading for non -hazardous waste and wastewater.

(c)Waste Management (Hazardous, Non -Hazardous, Residual, and Wastewater).
1.Samples.

• Collect representative samples of the coating debris generated by project activities. Collect samples under the observation of the Representative.

• Collect samples according to SW -846, "Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste - Physical/Chemical Methods." Describe the sampling methods in the Waste Handling Plan.

• For paint containing lead or other toxic metals, handle and treat the waste generated using steel abrasives as hazardous regardless of the TCLP results. Collect and analyze a minimum of one representative sample of the steel grit debris to identify the compos ition of the waste.

• Collect and have analyzed, a minimum of four representative samples of other waste streams (i.e., waste streams which do not contain steel abrasives). Use a random sampling technique to collect the samples.

• Complete the initial sampling of each waste stream immediately and send samples to the laboratory for analysis.

• Unless directed or required by state regulations or the waste recycling or disposal facility, once each waste stream is sampled, tested, and classified, additional sampling and analysis are not required for subsequent shipments unless the waste stream chan ges.

2.Testing.

2.a Laboratory. Direct the laboratory to test the waste according to 40 CFR 261, Appendix II, Method 1311 Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP), to determine if it is hazardous.

2.b TCLP. Analyze the samples from each waste stream by TCLP for all eight RCRA metals and other hazardous substances. If expendable abrasives are used, also analyze the samples for arsenic. When chemicals strippers are used, test liquids and sludge. Include pH to determine corrosivity.

3.Classification.

3.a RCRA Metals. Coating debris is classified as hazardous waste if the leachate contains any of the 8 RCRA metals or other hazardous substances in concentrations at or above the limits established in 40 CFR 261. The presence of these substances at lower concentrations cla ssifies the waste as residual.

Arsenic - 5.0 mg/L Barium - 100.0 mg/L Cadmium - 1.0 mg/L Chromium - 5.0 mg/L Lead - 5.0 mg/L Mercury - 0.2 mg/L Selenium - 1.0 mg/L Silver - 5.0 mg/L
