APPENDIX E<br />

which allows waste to be moved around the site without triggering RCRA LDRs or RCRA landfill<br />

minimum technology requirements.<br />

4.2.2 Special Waste Petroleum Soil Stockpiles<br />

Unless generated as part of a CERCLA response action, storage of PCS must be approved by the NMED<br />

SWB prior to generation of soil (20 NMAC 9.1). Soil piles must comply with the requirements for<br />

special waste in Section 2.3 of this plan and:<br />

4.2.3 PCBs<br />

Non-hazardous PCS may be stored onsite temporarily provided it is stored in a bermed area<br />

with an impermeable liner and protection from disbursement by wind.<br />

Non-hazardous PCS soil will not be stored for longer that 45 days, unless otherwise approved<br />

by the NMED SWB.<br />

Soil cannot contain free liquids and must pass the paint filter test.<br />

PCBs in concentrations greater than 50 parts per million (ppm) are regulated under TSCA. Management<br />

of all PCB waste material over 50 ppm is regulated by the TSCA Branch of EPA Region 6. PCB wastes<br />

over 50 ppm (excluding PCB bulk remediation waste) can only be stored onsite for 30 days unless they<br />

are stored in a facility that meets the requirements for storage facilities outlined in 40 CFR 761.65. PCB<br />

waste with concentrations less than 50 ppm must be stored in a facility approved by NMED. If a RCRA<br />

hazardous waste also contains PCB wastes over 50 ppm, the more stringent of the RCRA and TSCA<br />

regulations apply. Pursuant to 40 CFR, Part 761.61 and Part 761.65, PCB bulk remediation waste may be<br />

stored for up to 180-days.<br />

4.2.4 3.2.4 Asbestos<br />

Asbestos containing materials (ACM) is a NMED Special Waste and management and disposal of wastes<br />

containing asbestos shall be in accordance with 20 NMAC 9.1, Section 705.<br />

4.2.5 Hazardous Debris<br />

All debris must be evaluated on a project-specific basis to determine testing requirements. The<br />

evaluation will also determine if it is a hazardous debris or is contaminated with a listed hazardous waste,<br />

PCBs, or asbestos. Decontaminated or non-contaminated metal debris will be managed as scrap metal<br />

for recycling. Management of all debris will be addressed in project-specific addenda.<br />

4.3 Radioactive Wastes and Mixed Wastes<br />

Both IDW and remediation wastes may be categorized as radioactive waste if environmental restoration<br />

activities occur in an area known to contain radioactive materials. Radioactive waste will be segregated<br />

from other types of waste and placed in separate containers. Radioactive mixed waste will be further<br />

segregated from non-hazardous radioactive waste. Containers of radioactive and mixed waste will be<br />

maintained in controlled areas at all times and will be labeled on at least two sides (e.g., top and side)<br />

using magenta-on-yellow or black-on-yellow labels containing the words, ―Caution-Radioactive<br />

Material‖ and the trifoil radiation symbol. Radioactive mixed waste will also be marked to identify the<br />

chemical hazard of the waste. When full, containers will be transferred to the control of Kirtland AFB<br />
