OFF-SITE Locations

Part II, Off-Site Locations to Which Toxic Chemicals are... 

Most of the information required In Part I and all of the Information required In Part II of Form R can be filled In and photocopied and attached to each chemical-specific report. Part I must have an original signature on the certification statement and the trade secret designation must be entered as appropriate. You have the option to complete Part II for only the off-site locations that apply to the Individual chemical cited In the report g you can list all off-site locations that apply to all chemicals being reported and Include a photostatic copy of this Part II with each individual report. Part III must be completed separately for each chemical. Part IV provides additional space, if needed, to complete the information required by the preceding sections of the form. Include Part IV In your report, even it it Is blank. 

PART II. OFF-SITE LOCATIONS TO WHICH TOXIC CHEMICALS ARE TRANSFERRED IN WASTES... 

In this part of the form, you ara required to list all off-sIte locations to which you transfer wastes containing toxic chemicals. Do not list locations to which products containing toxic chemicals are shipped for sale or distribution in commerce or for further use. Also, do not list locations to which wastes containing chemicals are sold or sent for recovery, recycling, or reuse of the toxic chemicals. The information that you enter in this section relates to data you will report in Part III, Section 6. 

You may complete Part II for only the off-site locations that apply to the specific chemical cited in a particular report you can list all off-site locations that apply to all chemicals being reported and include a photostatic copy of Part II with each individual report. List only publicly owned treatment works (POTWs) and off-site treatment or disposal facilities. 

Enter in the spaces provided, the name and address of each location (other than POTWs) to which you ship or transfer wastes containing toxic chemicals. Do not include locations to which you ship the toxic chemical for recycle or reuse, tf you do not ship ortransfer wastes containing toxic chemicals to offsite locations, enter not applicable, NA in the off-site location name line of 2.1. Also enter the EPA Identification Number (RCRA I.D. Number) for each such location if known to you. This number may be found on the Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest, which is required by RCRA regulations. Also indicate in the space provided whether the location is owned or controlled by yourfacility or your parent company. If thefacility does not have a RCRA 1.0. number, enter not applicable, NA, in this space. 

If your lacility transfers toxic chemicals to more than six off-site locations, use additional copies of Part II. Cross through the printed numbers and write in numbers for these locations in ascending order (i.e., 2.7, 2.8). Check the box at the bottom of the page and indicate the number of additional pages of Pari II that are attached. 

In Part III, you are to identify the toxic chemical being reported. You must indicate the general uses and activities involving the chemical at your facility. In Part III, you will also enter quantitative data relating to releases of the chemical from the facility to air, water, and land. Quantities of the chemical transferred to off-site locations, identified in Part II, are also reported in this part. Any waste treatment information for onsite treatment of wastestreams containing the toxic chemical are also required to be reported on Part III. An optional section is included in this part that allows you to report waste minimization information associated with the chemical. 

Yourfacility receives toluene and naphthalene (both listed toxic chemicals) from an off-site location. You react the toluene with air to form benzoic acid and react the naphthalene with sulfuric acid, which forms phthalic acid and also produces sulfur dioxide fumes. Your facility processes toluene and naphthalene. Both are used as reactants to produce benzoic acid and phthalic acid, chemicals not on the section 313 list. 

Four predefined subcategories for reporting quantities released to land within the boundaries of the facility are provided. Do not report land disposal at off-site locations in this section. 

Zero Releases. If you have no releases of a toxic chemical to a particular medium, report either NA, not applicable, or 0, as appropriate. Report NA only when there is no possibility a release could occur to a specific media or off-site location. If a release to a specific media or off-site location could occur, but either no release occurred orthe annual aggregate release was less than 0.5 pounds, report zero. However, if you report zero releases, a basis of estimate must be provided in column B. For example, if hydrochloric acid is Involved in the facility processing activities but the facility neutralizes the wastestreams to a pH of 6-9, then the facility reports a 0 release for the chemical. If the facility has no underground injection well, it enters NA for that item on the form. If the facility does not landfill the acidic waste, it enters NA for landfills... 

On lines 6.2.1 through 6.2.3, report the amount of the chemical transferred to other off-site locations corresponding to those listed in Part II, Sections 2.1 through 2.6, including privately owned wastewater treatment facilities. In the block provided, enterthe numberfrom Part II, Section 2 corresponding to the off-site location to which the transfer is sent For example, if the transfer is sent to the location listed in Part II, Section 2 3. enter 3" in the block provided. (The first digit of this section number has been precoded.) If you need additional space, check the box at the bottom of Section 6 and use the Supplemental Information Sheet (Part IV, Section 6) to report those transfers. 

Enter one of the following codes to identify the type of treatment or disposal method used by the off-site location for the chemical being reported. You should use more than one line for a single location when the toxic chemical is subject to different disposal methods the same location code may be used more than once. You may have this information in your copy of EPA Form SO, Item S of the Annual/Biennial Hazardous Waste Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Report (RCRA). Applicable codes for Part III, Section 6(c) are as follows ...

The overall efficiency and effectiveness of LNAPL hydrocarbon recovery programs have also been impacted by other factors. These factors include limitations associated with LNAPL recovery from low-yielding formations, inability to gain access to optimal recovery and off-site locations, coproduced water-handling constraints, and economic constraints. 

As of March 2003, there were 26 spent fuel storage facilities in the United States located in 21 states. A total of about 160,000 spent fuel units containing about 45,000 short tons (41,000 metric tons) of radioactive waste were stored on-site at nuclear power plants and off-site at special storage areas. More than 97 percent of the wastes were still being held at on-site facilities the rest had been transported to off-site locations.
