Pcb Bulk Product Waste Disposal
The reinterpretation allows building material i e substrate coated or serviced with pcb bulk product waste e g caulk paint mastics sealants at the time of disposal to be managed as a pcb bulk product waste even if the pcbs have migrated from the overlying bulk product waste into the substrate.
Pcb bulk product waste disposal. Pcb bulk product waste containing leaking ballasts must be managed for disposal by tsca pcb incinerator a tsca pcb landfill a rcra landfill an alternate tsca pcb disposal method a decontamination procedure pcb coordinated approval or a risk based approval.

O concrete adjacent to caulked or grouted joints o concrete wood or other substrate coated with a pcb containing paint o flooring materials including tiles and carpets coated with mastic adhesives sealants etc. Pcb bulk product waste is waste derived from products manufactured to contain pcbs in a non liquid state at 50 ppm or greater.
