RCRA REVISION CHECKLIST 134

Correction of Beryllium Powder (P015) Listing
59 FR 31551-31552
June 20, 1994
(RCRA Cluster IV, Non-HSWA provisions)

Note:  On April 22, 1988, EPA published a technical correction to the lists of hazardous wastes in 40 CFR 261.33(e) and (f) (Revision Checklist 46, 53 FR 13382).  In that notice, however, the word "dust" was inadvertently omitted from the P015 listing for "beryllium dust" in the 261.33(e) list of hazardous wastes.  In addition, it became apparent that the term "beryllim dust" is not used by the industry to describe this commerical chemical product; the actual term used by the industry is "beryllium powder".  This technical correction adds "powder" to the P015 hazardous waste listing for "beryllium" and makes conforming changes to the list of hazardous constituents in Part 261 Appendix VIII and to Table 2 in § 268.42(a).
