Questions and answers on the RCRA toxicity characteristic
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5915214
The EPA issued a final toxicity characteristic (TC) rule on March 29, 1990. The final rule establishes the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) as a replacement to the Extraction Procedure Toxicity Test (EP Tox) and an update to the existing TCLP. The rule also adds 25 organic chemicals to the existing list of 14 regulated toxicity characteristic waste constituents. The new TC fulfills the Congressional mandate which directed the EPA to examine and revise the EP Tox and to identify additional hazardous waste characteristics. This information brief provides questions and answers regarding the final TC.
