Environmental Protection Agency June 20, 2006 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Under the Federal Advisory Committee Act, Public Law 92463, EPA gives notice of a public teleconference of the National Advisory Council for Environmental Policy and Technology (NACEPT). NACEPT provides advice to the EPA Administrator on a broad range of environmental policy, technology, and management issues. The Council is a panel of experts who represent diverse interests from academia, industry, non-governmental organizations, and local, state, and tribal governments. The purpose of this teleconference is to discuss and approve comments on EPA's Draft 2006-2011 Strategic Plan from a subset of the Council. A copy of the agenda for the meeting will be posted at https://www.epa.gov/ocem/nacept/cal-nacept.htm.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is removing its final rule to grant a petition submitted by Tokusen U.S.A, Inc. to exclude (or delist) a certain F006 filter cake generated by its Conway, Arkansas Plant from the lists of hazardous wastes. This rule removes the final rule published in 67 FR 79874 (December 31, 2002). The EPA has received data from the facility indicating that the waste currently generated is no longer representative of the waste for which the petition was submitted. EPA acknowledges these changes and has requested that Tokusen withdraw its petition. Tokusen may submit a new delisting petition for the waste stream at any time.
