284-W Powerplant Wastewater stream-specific report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6238663
The proposed wastestream designation for the 284-W Powerplant Wastewater stream is that it is not a dangerous waste, pursuant to the Washington (State) Administrative Code (WAC) 173-303, Dangerous Waste Regulations. This proposed designation is based on applying both process knowledge and sample data to the WAC 173-303 requirements for the three types of dangerous waste: listed; criteria; and characteristic dangerous waste. The listed'' dangerous waste determination was made with process knowledge supplemented with sampling data; the criteria'' and characteristic'' dangerous waste determinations were made with sampling data. Process knowledge was based on Material Safety Data Sheets and knowledge of all chemical products stored or used in the 284-W Powerplant. The proposed designation is made using validated data from routine operations samples taken from October 1989 through March 1990. Samples of the other two waste contributing activities, blowdown and softener regeneration, were taken before implementation of a data validation procedure. These data are included in Appendix A to further support the proposed designation. 9 refs., 5 figs., 7 tabs.
