OSTI ID:5284112
Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments (HSWA) requires the EPA to establish treatment standards for all listed and characteristic hazardous waste destined for land disposal according to a strict schedule. This portion of HSWA is known as the Land Disposal Restrictions (LDR). For wastes that are restricted, HSWA requires EPA to set concentration levels or methods of treatment, both of which are called treatment standards, that substantially diminish the toxicity of wastes or reduce the likelihood that hazardous constituents form waste will migrate from the disposal site.
