The regulations required in a permit application for a hazardous waste management facility are provided in which regulation?

• A. 40 CFR Part 270
• B. 40 CFR Part 250
• C. 40 CFR Part 238
• D. 40 CFR 240

Answer: (A)

The permit requirements for a hazardous waste management facility are defined in the section that handles RCRA permits. This part specifies exactly what must be included in a permit application, how the application is reviewed, and the conditions the facility must meet to operate. A complete application typically describes the facility and its operations, the wastes managed, the design and operating standards, and plans for monitoring, contingency actions, closure, and financial assurance. Other parts cover different topics (such as offshore oil regulations or unrelated hazardous waste provisions) and do not provide the specific permit-application requirements for hazardous waste facilities.
