random assignment design, provides an
important test of whether intensive,
individualized support for teachers
improves their instructional practices
and ultimately student achievement. By
focusing on novice teachers, the study
has the potential to inform both teacher
induction policies and teacher
preparation programs. Examining the
impact of this intervention on novice
and early career teachers can also
inform the effectiveness of providing
individualized feedback as a model for
teacher professional development
programs. The study includes 12
districts and approximately 500 teachers
who will be participating in the study.

petition (petition) for exemption from
hazardous waste disposal restrictions of
the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act Class I Hazardous Waste
Injection for Occidental Chemical
Corporation (Occidental) under the 1984
Hazardous and Solid Waste
Amendments Occidental has adequately
demonstrated to the satisfaction of EPA
by the petition modification application
and supporting documentation that, to a
reasonable degree of certainty, there will
be no migration of hazardous
constituents from the injection zone for
as long as the waste remains hazardous.
The existing petition allows for the
subsurface disposal by Occidental of
specific restricted wastes via Class I
injection wells at Occidental’s Wichita,
Kansas facility and was approved by
EPA with an effective date of October
24, 2008. In its modification
application, Occidental requested that
the existing petition include Well
Number 11, a new well, as a
replacement for Well Number 4, which
was permanently plugged in 2008. This
action results in no change to the
volume of fluids to be injected.
This final decision allows the
underground injection by Occidental of
the specific restricted wastes identified
in the modified petition into injection
well Number 11 at the Wichita, Kansas
facility until December 31, 2020, unless
EPA moves to terminate this exemption.
Included in this approval is the
stipulation that Occidental acquires and
continues to maintain an approved
permit from the Kansas Department of
Health and Environment.
A public notice concerning the
Agency’s proposed action was issued on
December 12, 2016, and the public
comment period closed on January 25,
2017. In addition to soliciting written
comments regarding the Agency’s
proposed approval, EPA conducted a
public availability session and a formal
public hearing on January 11, 2017, at
the Haysville Learning Center in
Haysville, Kansas. No comments were
received during the comment period.
This decision constitutes a final Agency
action. There is no further
administrative process to appeal this
decision.
Dated: March 20, 2017.
