Thirty-Ninth Update of the Federal
Agency Hazardous Waste Compliance
Docket
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
Since 1988, the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
has maintained a Federal Agency
Hazardous Waste Compliance Docket
(‘‘Docket’’) under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act
(CERCLA). CERCLA requires EPA to
establish a Docket that contains certain
information reported to EPA by Federal
facilities that manage hazardous waste
or from which a reportable quantity of
hazardous substances has been released.
This notice identifies the Federal
facilities not previously listed on the
Docket and identifies Federal facilities
reported to EPA since the last update on
October 29, 2020. In addition to the list
of additions to the Docket, this notice
includes a section with revisions of the
previous Docket list and a section of
Federal facilities that are to be deleted
from the Docket. Thus, the revisions in
this update include two additions, zero
deletions, and zero corrections to the
Docket since the previous update.
DATES: This list is current as of March
31, 2021.

1.0 Introduction
Section 120(c) of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C.
9620(c), as amended by the Superfund
Amendments and Reauthorization Act
of 1986 (SARA), requires EPA to
establish the Federal Agency Hazardous
Waste Compliance Docket. The Docket
contains information on Federal
facilities that manage hazardous waste
and such information is submitted by
Federal agencies to EPA under sections
3005, 3010, and 3016 of the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA),
42 U.S.C. 6925, 6930, and 6937.
Additionally, the Docket contains
information on Federal facilities with a
reportable quantity of hazardous
substances that has been released and
such information is submitted by
Federal agencies to EPA under section
103 of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9603.
Specifically, RCRA section 3005
establishes a permitting system for
certain hazardous waste treatment,
storage, and disposal (TSD) facilities;
RCRA section 3010 requires waste
generators, transporters and TSD
facilities to notify EPA of their
hazardous waste activities; and RCRA
section 3016 requires Federal agencies
to submit biennially to EPA an
inventory of their Federal hazardous
waste facilities. CERCLA section 103(a)
requires the owner or operator of a
vessel or onshore or offshore facility to
notify the National Response Center
(NRC) of any spill or other release of a
hazardous substance that equals or
exceeds a reportable quantity (RQ), as
defined by CERCLA section 101.
Additionally, CERCLA section 103(c)
requires facilities that have ‘‘stored,
treated, or disposed of’’ hazardous
wastes and where there is ‘‘known,
suspected, or likely releases’’ of
hazardous substances to report their
activities to EPA.
CERCLA section 120(d) requires EPA
to take steps to assure that a Preliminary
Assessment (PA) be completed for those
sites identified in the Docket and that

the evaluation and listing of sites with
a PA be completed within a reasonable
time frame. The PA is designed to
provide information for EPA to consider
when evaluating the site for potential
response action or inclusion on the
National Priorities List (NPL).
The Docket serves three major
purposes: (1) To identify all Federal
facilities that must be evaluated to
determine whether they pose a threat to
human health and the environment
sufficient to warrant inclusion on the
National Priorities List (NPL); (2) to
compile and maintain the information
submitted to EPA on such facilities
under the provisions listed in section
120(c) of CERCLA; and (3) to provide a
mechanism to make the information
available to the public. Previous Docket
updates are available at https://
www.epa.gov/fedfac/previous-federalagency-hazardous-waste-compliancedocket-updates.
This notice provides some
background information on the Docket.
Additional information on the Docket
requirements and implementation are
found in the Docket Reference Manual,
Federal Agency Hazardous Waste
Compliance Docket found at https://
www.epa.gov/fedfac/docket-referencemanual-federal-agency-hazardouswaste-compliance-docket-interim-final
or obtained by calling the Regional
Docket Coordinators listed below. This
notice also provides changes to the list
of sites included on the Docket in three
areas: (1) Additions, (2) Deletions, and
(3) Corrections. Specifically, additions
are newly identified Federal facilities
that have been reported to EPA since the
last update and now are included on the
Docket; the deletions section lists
Federal facilities that EPA is deleting
from the Docket.1 The information
submitted to EPA on each Federal
facility is maintained in the Docket
repository located in the EPA Regional
office of the Region in which the
Federal facility is located; for a
description of the information required
under those provisions, see 53 FR 4280
(February 12, 1988). Each repository
contains the documents submitted to
EPA under the reporting provisions and
correspondence relevant to the reporting
provisions for each Federal facility.
In prior updates, information was also
provided regarding No Further
Remedial Action Planned (NFRAP)
status changes. However, information
on NFRAP and NPL status is no longer
being provided separately in the Docket
update as it is now available at: https://
www.epa.gov/fedfac/fedfacts or by

information for EPA to consider when
evaluating the site for potential response
action or listing on the NPL. This notice
includes two additions.
2.0
3.2 Deletions
There are no statutory or regulatory
provisions that address deletion of a
facility from the Docket. However, if a
facility is incorrectly included on the
Docket, it may be deleted from the
Docket. The criteria EPA uses in
deleting sites from the Docket include:
A facility for which there was an
incorrect report submitted for hazardous
waste activity under RCRA (e.g., 40 CFR
262.44); a facility that was not
Federally-owned or operated at the time
of the listing; a facility included more
than once (i.e., redundant listings); or
when multiple facilities are combined
under one listing. (See Docket Codes
(Reasons for Deletion of Facilities) for a
more refined list of the criteria EPA uses
for deleting sites from the Docket.)
Facilities being deleted no longer will
be subject to the requirements of
CERCLA section 120(d). This notice
includes zero deletions.

Revisions of the Previous Docket
This section includes a discussion of
the additions, deletions and corrections
to the list of Docket facilities since the
previous Docket update.
3.1
Additions
These Federal facilities are being
added primarily because of new
information obtained by EPA (for
example, recent reporting of a facility
pursuant to RCRA sections 3005, 3010,
or 3016 or CERCLA section 103).
CERCLA section 120, as amended by the
Defense Authorization Act of 1997,
specifies that EPA take steps to assure
that a Preliminary Assessment (PA) be
completed within a reasonable time
frame for those Federal facilities that are
included on the Docket. Among other
things, the PA is designed to provide

3.3 Corrections
Changes necessary to correct the
previous Docket are identified by both
EPA and Federal agencies. The
corrections section may include changes
in addresses or spelling, and corrections
of the recorded name and ownership of
a Federal facility. In addition, changes
in the names of Federal facilities may be
made to establish consistency in the
Docket or between the Superfund
Enterprise Management System (SEMS)
and the Docket. For the Federal facility
for which a correction is entered, the
original entry is as it appeared in
previous Docket updates. The corrected
update is shown directly below, for easy
comparison. This notice includes zero
corrections.
4.0 Process for Compiling the Updated
Docket
In compiling the newly reported
Federal facilities for the update being
published in this notice, EPA extracted
the names, addresses, and identification
numbers of facilities from four EPA
databases—the WebEOC, the Biennial
Inventory of Federal Agency Hazardous
Waste Activities, the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act
Information System (RCRAInfo), and
SEMS—that contain information about
Federal facilities submitted under the
four provisions listed in CERCLA
section 120(c).
EPA assures the quality of the
information on the Docket by
conducting extensive evaluation of the
E:\FR\FM\29APN1.SGM
29APN1
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 81 / Thursday, April 29, 2021 / Notices
current Docket list and contacts the
other Federal Agency (OFA) with the
information obtained from the databases
identified above to determine which
Federal facilities were, in fact, newly
reported and qualified for inclusion on
the update. EPA is also striving to
correct errors for Federal facilities that
were previously reported. For example,
state-owned or privately-owned
facilities that are not operated by the
Federal government may have been
included. Such problems are sometimes
caused by procedures historically used
to report and track Federal facilities
data. Representatives of Federal
agencies are asked to contact the EPA
HQ Docket Coordinator at the address
provided in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section of this
notice if revisions of this update
information are necessary.
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES
5.0
Facilities Not Included
Certain categories of facilities may not
be included on the Docket, such as: (1)
Federal facilities formerly owned by a
Federal agency that at the time of
consideration was not Federally-owned
or operated; (2) Federal facilities that are
small quantity generators (SQGs) that
have not, more than once per calendar
year, generated more than 1,000 kg of
hazardous waste in any single month;
(3) Federal facilities that are very small
quantity generators (VSQGs) that have
never generated more than 100 kg of
hazardous waste in any month; (4)
Federal facilities that are solely
hazardous waste transportation
facilities, as reported under RCRA
section 3010; and (5) Federal facilities
that have mixed mine or mill site
ownership.
An EPA policy issued in June 2003
provided guidance for a site-by-site
evaluation as to whether ‘‘mixed
ownership’’ mine or mill sites, typically
created as a result of activities
conducted pursuant to the General
Mining Law of 1872 and never reported
under section 103(a) of CERCLA, should
be included on the Docket. For purposes
of that policy, mixed ownership mine or
mill sites are those located partially on
private land and partially on public
land. This policy is found at https://
www.epa.gov/fedfac/policy-listingmixed-ownership-mine-or-mill-sitescreated-result-general-mining-law-1872.
The policy of not including these
facilities may change; facilities now
omitted may be added at some point if
EPA determines that they should be
included.

6.0 Facility NPL Status Reporting,
Including NFRAP Status
EPA tracks the NPL status of Federal
facilities listed on the Docket. An
updated list of the NPL status of all
Docket facilities, as well as their NFRAP
status, is available at https://
www.epa.gov/fedfac/fedfacts or by
contacting the EPA HQ Docket
Coordinator at the address provided in
the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT
section of this notice. In prior updates,
information regarding NFRAP status
changes was provided separately.
7.0 Information Contained on Docket
Listing
The information is provided in three
tables. The first table is a list of
additional Federal facilities that are
being added to the Docket. The second
table is a list of Federal facilities that are
being deleted from the Docket. The third
table is for corrections.
The Federal facilities listed in each
table are organized by the date reported.
Under each heading is listed the name
and address of the facility, the Federal
agency responsible for the facility, the
statutory provision(s) under which the
facility was reported to EPA, and a
code.2
The statutory provisions under which
a Federal facility is reported are listed
in a column titled ‘‘Reporting
Mechanism.’’ Applicable mechanisms
are listed for each Federal facility: For
example, Sections 3005, 3010, 3016,
103(c), or Other. ‘‘Other’’ has been
added as a reporting mechanism to
indicate those Federal facilities that
otherwise have been identified to have
releases or threat of releases of
hazardous substances. The National
Contingency Plan at 40 CFR 300.405
addresses discovery or notification,
outlines what constitutes discovery of a
hazardous substance release, and states
that a release may be discovered in
several ways, including: (1) A report
submitted in accordance with section
103(a) of CERCLA, i.e., reportable
quantities codified at 40 CFR 302; (2) a
report submitted to EPA in accordance
with section 103(c) of CERCLA; (3)
investigation by government authorities
conducted in accordance with section
104(e) of CERCLA or other statutory
authority; (4) notification of a release by
a Federal or state permit holder when
required by its permit; (5) inventory or
survey efforts or random or incidental
observation reported by government
agencies or the public; (6) submission of

been assigned a code that indicates a specific reason
for the addition or deletion. The code precedes this

preliminary assessment, in accordance
with section 105(d) of CERCLA; (7) a
report submitted in accordance with
section 311(b)(5) of the Clean Water Act;
and (8) other sources. As a policy
matter, EPA generally believes it is
appropriate for Federal facilities
identified through the CERCLA
discovery and notification process to be
included on the Docket.

that now make up the Docket and the
NPL and NFRAP status are available to
interested parties and can be obtained at

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
[FRL-10023-07-OLEM]
Thirty-Ninth Update of the Federal Agency Hazardous Waste
Compliance Docket
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Since 1988, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has
maintained a Federal Agency Hazardous Waste Compliance Docket
(``Docket'') under the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA). CERCLA requires EPA to
establish a Docket that contains certain information reported to EPA by
Federal facilities that manage hazardous waste or from which a
reportable quantity of hazardous substances has been released. This
notice identifies the Federal facilities not previously listed on the
Docket and identifies Federal facilities reported to EPA since the last
update on October 29, 2020. In addition to the list of additions to the
Docket, this notice includes a section with revisions of the previous
Docket list and a section of Federal facilities that are to be deleted
from the Docket. Thus, the revisions in this update include two
additions, zero deletions, and zero corrections to the Docket since the
previous update.
DATES: This list is current as of March 31, 2021.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Electronic versions of the Docket and
more information on its implementation can be obtained at https://www.epa.gov/fedfac/previous-federal-agency-hazardous-waste-compliance-docket-updates by clicking on the link for Cleanups at Federal
Facilities or by contacting Benjamin Simes ([email protected]),

1.0 Introduction
Section 120(c) of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9620(c), as amended by the
Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA), requires
EPA to establish the Federal Agency Hazardous Waste Compliance Docket.
The Docket contains information on Federal facilities that manage
hazardous waste and such information is submitted by Federal agencies
to EPA under sections 3005, 3010, and 3016 of the Resource Conservation
and Recovery Act (RCRA), 42 U.S.C. 6925, 6930, and 6937. Additionally,
the Docket contains information on Federal facilities with a reportable
quantity of hazardous substances that has been released and such
information is submitted by Federal agencies to EPA under section 103
of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9603. Specifically, RCRA section 3005 establishes
a permitting system for certain hazardous waste treatment, storage, and
disposal (TSD) facilities; RCRA section 3010 requires waste generators,
transporters and TSD facilities to notify EPA of their hazardous waste
activities; and RCRA section 3016 requires Federal agencies to submit
biennially to EPA an inventory of their Federal hazardous waste
facilities. CERCLA section 103(a) requires the owner or operator of a
vessel or onshore or offshore facility to notify the National Response
Center (NRC) of any spill or other release of a hazardous substance
that equals or exceeds a reportable quantity (RQ), as defined by CERCLA
section 101. Additionally, CERCLA section 103(c) requires facilities
that have ``stored, treated, or disposed of'' hazardous wastes and
where there is ``known, suspected, or likely releases'' of hazardous
substances to report their activities to EPA.
CERCLA section 120(d) requires EPA to take steps to assure that a
Preliminary Assessment (PA) be completed for those sites identified in
the Docket and that
[[Page 22660]]
the evaluation and listing of sites with a PA be completed within a
reasonable time frame. The PA is designed to provide information for
EPA to consider when evaluating the site for potential response action
or inclusion on the National Priorities List (NPL).
The Docket serves three major purposes: (1) To identify all Federal
facilities that must be evaluated to determine whether they pose a
threat to human health and the environment sufficient to warrant
inclusion on the National Priorities List (NPL); (2) to compile and
maintain the information submitted to EPA on such facilities under the
provisions listed in section 120(c) of CERCLA; and (3) to provide a
mechanism to make the information available to the public. Previous
Docket updates are available at https://www.epa.gov/fedfac/previous-federal-agency-hazardous-waste-compliance-docket-updates.
This notice provides some background information on the Docket.
Additional information on the Docket requirements and implementation
are found in the Docket Reference Manual, Federal Agency Hazardous
Waste Compliance Docket found at https://www.epa.gov/fedfac/docket-reference-manual-federal-agency-hazardous-waste-compliance-docket-interim-final or obtained by calling the Regional Docket Coordinators
listed below. This notice also provides changes to the list of sites
included on the Docket in three areas: (1) Additions, (2) Deletions,
and (3) Corrections. Specifically, additions are newly identified
Federal facilities that have been reported to EPA since the last update
and now are included on the Docket; the deletions section lists Federal
facilities that EPA is deleting from the Docket.\1\ The information
submitted to EPA on each Federal facility is maintained in the Docket
repository located in the EPA Regional office of the Region in which
the Federal facility is located; for a description of the information
required under those provisions, see 53 FR 4280 (February 12, 1988).
Each repository contains the documents submitted to EPA under the
reporting provisions and correspondence relevant to the reporting
provisions for each Federal facility.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ See Section 3.2 for the criteria for being deleted from the
Docket.

Further Remedial Action Planned (NFRAP) status changes. However,
information on NFRAP and NPL status is no longer being provided
separately in the Docket update as it is now available at: https://www.epa.gov/fedfac/fedfacts or by contacting the EPA HQ Docket
Coordinator at the address provided in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

3.0 Revisions of the Previous Docket
This section includes a discussion of the additions, deletions and
corrections to the list of Docket facilities since the previous Docket
update.
3.1 Additions
These Federal facilities are being added primarily because of new
information obtained by EPA (for example, recent reporting of a
facility pursuant to RCRA sections 3005, 3010, or 3016 or CERCLA
section 103). CERCLA section 120, as amended by the Defense
Authorization Act of 1997, specifies that EPA take steps to assure that
a Preliminary Assessment (PA) be completed within a reasonable time
frame for those Federal facilities that are included on the Docket.
Among other things, the PA is designed to provide information for EPA
to consider when evaluating the site for potential response action or
listing on the NPL. This notice includes two additions.
3.2 Deletions
There are no statutory or regulatory provisions that address
deletion of a facility from the Docket. However, if a facility is
incorrectly included on the Docket, it may be deleted from the Docket.
The criteria EPA uses in deleting sites from the Docket include: A
facility for which there was an incorrect report submitted for
hazardous waste activity under RCRA (e.g., 40 CFR 262.44); a facility
that was not Federally-owned or operated at the time of the listing; a
facility included more than once (i.e., redundant listings); or when
multiple facilities are combined under one listing. (See Docket Codes
(Reasons for Deletion of Facilities) for a more refined list of the
criteria EPA uses for deleting sites from the Docket.) Facilities being
deleted no longer will be subject to the requirements of CERCLA section
120(d). This notice includes zero deletions.
3.3 Corrections
Changes necessary to correct the previous Docket are identified by
both EPA and Federal agencies. The corrections section may include
changes in addresses or spelling, and corrections of the recorded name
and ownership of a Federal facility. In addition, changes in the names
of Federal facilities may be made to establish consistency in the
Docket or between the Superfund Enterprise Management System (SEMS) and
the Docket. For the Federal facility for which a correction is entered,
the original entry is as it appeared in previous Docket updates. The
corrected update is shown directly below, for easy comparison. This
notice includes zero corrections.
4.0 Process for Compiling the Updated Docket
In compiling the newly reported Federal facilities for the update
being published in this notice, EPA extracted the names, addresses, and
identification numbers of facilities from four EPA databases--the
WebEOC, the Biennial Inventory of Federal Agency Hazardous Waste
Activities, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Information
System (RCRAInfo), and SEMS--that contain information about Federal
facilities submitted under the four provisions listed in CERCLA section
120(c).
EPA assures the quality of the information on the Docket by
conducting extensive evaluation of the
[[Page 22661]]
current Docket list and contacts the other Federal Agency (OFA) with
the information obtained from the databases identified above to
determine which Federal facilities were, in fact, newly reported and
qualified for inclusion on the update. EPA is also striving to correct
errors for Federal facilities that were previously reported. For
example, state-owned or privately-owned facilities that are not
operated by the Federal government may have been included. Such
problems are sometimes caused by procedures historically used to report
and track Federal facilities data. Representatives of Federal agencies
are asked to contact the EPA HQ Docket Coordinator at the address
provided in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this notice
if revisions of this update information are necessary.
5.0 Facilities Not Included
Certain categories of facilities may not be included on the Docket,
such as: (1) Federal facilities formerly owned by a Federal agency that
at the time of consideration was not Federally-owned or operated; (2)
Federal facilities that are small quantity generators (SQGs) that have
not, more than once per calendar year, generated more than 1,000 kg of
hazardous waste in any single month; (3) Federal facilities that are
very small quantity generators (VSQGs) that have never generated more
than 100 kg of hazardous waste in any month; (4) Federal facilities
that are solely hazardous waste transportation facilities, as reported
under RCRA section 3010; and (5) Federal facilities that have mixed
mine or mill site ownership.
An EPA policy issued in June 2003 provided guidance for a site-by-
site evaluation as to whether ``mixed ownership'' mine or mill sites,
typically created as a result of activities conducted pursuant to the
General Mining Law of 1872 and never reported under section 103(a) of
CERCLA, should be included on the Docket. For purposes of that policy,
mixed ownership mine or mill sites are those located partially on
private land and partially on public land. This policy is found at
https://www.epa.gov/fedfac/policy-listing-mixed-ownership-mine-or-mill-sites-created-result-general-mining-law-1872. The policy of not
including these facilities may change; facilities now omitted may be
added at some point if EPA determines that they should be included.
6.0 Facility NPL Status Reporting, Including NFRAP Status
EPA tracks the NPL status of Federal facilities listed on the
Docket. An updated list of the NPL status of all Docket facilities, as
well as their NFRAP status, is available at https://www.epa.gov/fedfac/fedfacts or by contacting the EPA HQ Docket Coordinator at the address
provided in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this notice.
In prior updates, information regarding NFRAP status changes was
provided separately.
7.0 Information Contained on Docket Listing
The information is provided in three tables. The first table is a
list of additional Federal facilities that are being added to the
Docket. The second table is a list of Federal facilities that are being
deleted from the Docket. The third table is for corrections.
The Federal facilities listed in each table are organized by the
date reported. Under each heading is listed the name and address of the
facility, the Federal agency responsible for the facility, the
statutory provision(s) under which the facility was reported to EPA,
and a code.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ Each Federal facility listed in the update has been assigned
a code that indicates a specific reason for the addition or
deletion. The code precedes this list.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The statutory provisions under which a Federal facility is reported
are listed in a column titled ``Reporting Mechanism.'' Applicable
mechanisms are listed for each Federal facility: For example, Sections
3005, 3010, 3016, 103(c), or Other. ``Other'' has been added as a
reporting mechanism to indicate those Federal facilities that otherwise
have been identified to have releases or threat of releases of
hazardous substances. The National Contingency Plan at 40 CFR 300.405
addresses discovery or notification, outlines what constitutes
discovery of a hazardous substance release, and states that a release
may be discovered in several ways, including: (1) A report submitted in
accordance with section 103(a) of CERCLA, i.e., reportable quantities
codified at 40 CFR 302; (2) a report submitted to EPA in accordance
with section 103(c) of CERCLA; (3) investigation by government
authorities conducted in accordance with section 104(e) of CERCLA or
other statutory authority; (4) notification of a release by a Federal
or state permit holder when required by its permit; (5) inventory or
survey efforts or random or incidental observation reported by
government agencies or the public; (6) submission of a citizen petition
to EPA or the appropriate Federal facility requesting a preliminary
assessment, in accordance with section 105(d) of CERCLA; (7) a report
submitted in accordance with section 311(b)(5) of the Clean Water Act;
and (8) other sources. As a policy matter, EPA generally believes it is
appropriate for Federal facilities identified through the CERCLA
discovery and notification process to be included on the Docket.
The complete list of Federal facilities that now make up the Docket
and the NPL and NFRAP status are available to interested parties and
can be obtained at https://www.epa.gov/fedfac/fedfacts or by contacting
the EPA HQ Docket Coordinator at the address provided in the FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this notice. As of the date of
this notice, the total number of Federal facilities that appear on the
Docket is 2,382.
