Jolly F. H. Dupre L. C. Peeler -Bartley ~ D. /Ganphinietz - CED j / F./Hart / * The present uncertainty on EPA regulations on solid waste is forcing us to delay development of a new landfill site at Chocolate Bayou. Our present plans are to stretch out the useful life of the existing site until expected EPA regulations are better defined. For this purpose, I am requesting that arrangements be made for outside disposal of any significant amounts of insulation containing over 1% asbestos. As you are aware, this material is classified as a Class I waste and requires special packaging and handling. Environmental Control should be contacted in advance to make arrangements for outside disposal. * RBM:fm P.S. I have written the Texas Department c: Water Resources requesting a waste code number for this material and should have an answer in one or two weeks.
