Terms used in this subpart are
defined in the Act, in § 63.2 of the
general provisions in subpart A of this
part, and in this section as follows:
Bag leak detection system means a
monitoring device for a fabric filter that
identifies an increase in particulate
matter emissions resulting from a

Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 231 / Thursday, December 1, 2011 / Rules and Regulations
Bonded product means mineral wool
to which a hazardous air pollutantbased binder (containing such
hazardous air pollutants as phenol or
formaldehyde) has been applied.
CO means, for the purposes of this
subpart, emissions of carbon monoxide
that serve as a surrogate for emissions of
carbonyl sulfide, a compound included
on the list of hazardous air pollutants in
section 112 of the Act.
Cupola means a large, water-cooled
metal vessel to which is charged a
mixture of fuel, rock and/or slag, and
additives. As the fuel is burned, the
charged mixture is heated to a molten
state for later processing to form mineral
wool.
Curing oven means a chamber in
which heat is used to thermoset a binder
on the mineral wool fiber used to make
bonded products.
Fabric filter means an air pollution
control device used to capture
particulate matter by filtering gas
streams through fabric bags. It also is
known as a baghouse.
Formaldehyde means, for the
purposes of this subpart, emissions of
formaldehyde that, in addition to being
a HAP itself, serve as a surrogate for
organic compounds included on the list
of hazardous air pollutants in section
112 of the Act, including but not limited
to phenol.
Hazardous air pollutant means any
air pollutant listed in or pursuant to
section 112(b) of the Act.
I means the owner or operator of a
mineral wool production facility.
Incinerator means an enclosed air
pollution control device that uses
controlled flame combustion to convert
combustible materials to
noncombustible gases.
Melt means raw materials, excluding
coke, that are charged into the cupola,
heated to a molten state, and discharged
to the fiber forming and collection
process.
Melt rate means the mass of molten
material discharged from a single cupola
over a specified time period.
Mineral wool means a fibrous glassy
substance made from natural rock (such
as basalt), blast furnace slag or other
slag, or a mixture of rock and slag. It
may be used as a thermal or acoustical
insulation material or in the making of
other products to provide structural
strength, sound absorbency, fire
resistance, or other required properties.
New source means any affected source
the construction or reconstruction of
which is commenced after May 8, 1997.
PM means, for the purposes of this
subpart, emissions of particulate matter
that serve as a surrogate for metals (in
particulate or volatile form) on the list

Hazardous Waste Management
System; Identification and Listing of
Hazardous Waste; Final Exclusion
Environmental Protection
Agency.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is granting a petition
submitted by ExxonMobil Refining and
Supply Company—Beaumont Refinery
(Beaumont Refinery) to exclude from
hazardous waste control (or delist) a
certain solid waste. This final rule
responds to the petition submitted by
Beaumont Refinery to delist to have
centrifuge solids generated from
treatment of Tank Bottoms from its
Lower Park Tank Farm excluded, or
delisted, from the definition of a
hazardous waste. The centrifuge solids
are derived from the management and
treatment of several F- and K-waste
codes. These waste codes are F037,
F038, K048, K049, K051, K052, K169,
and K170.
After careful analysis and evaluation
of comments submitted by the public,
the EPA has concluded that the
petitioned wastes are not hazardous
waste when disposed of in Subtitle D
landfills. This exclusion applies to the
centrifuge solids generated at Beaumont
Refinery’s Beaumont, Texas facility.
Accordingly, this final rule excludes the
petitioned waste from the requirements
of hazardous waste regulations under
the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act (RCRA) when disposed of
in Subtitle D landfills but imposes
testing conditions to ensure that the
future-generated wastes remain
qualified for delisting.
DATES: Effective Date: December 1, 2011.
ADDRESSES: The public docket for this
final rule is located at the U.S.

IV. Public Comments Received on the
Proposed Exclusion
A. Who submitted comments on the
proposed rule?
B. Comments and Responses
V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. Overview Information
A. What action is EPA finalizing?
The EPA is finalizing:
(1) The decision to grant Beaumont
Refinery’s petition to have its centrifuge
solids excluded, or delisted, from the
definition of a hazardous waste, subject
to certain continued verification and
monitoring conditions; and
(2) To use the Delisting Risk
Assessment Software to evaluate the
potential impact of the petitioned waste
on human health and the environment.
The Agency used this model to predict
the concentration of hazardous
constituents released from the
petitioned waste, once it is disposed.
After evaluating the petition, EPA
proposed and issued a direct final rule,
on October 1, 2010 to exclude the
