Dear Byron,
Thank you for meeting with IPC members earlier this week. Several of our members said that the meeting with you and Administrator Pruitt was the highlight of the week.
In advance of our w ritten comments for the May 15th docket, I wanted to provide you with some timely information about two of the issues we discussed, the negotiated rulemaking on TSCA reporting of byproducts, which starts on Tuesday May 9th, and the RCRA Hazardous Waste Generator Rule, for which there is a court order for June briefing.
Please find below and attached the meeting notice provided by EPA's facilitators, along w ith their situation report and our comments on the situation report. As we said during the meeting with you and the Administrator, we look forward to collaboration with the EPA and we are hopeful that after a proper vetting of this issue by the negotiating committee, a rule will be proposed and finalized that allows EPA and industry to better focus our resources.
Additionally, with regards to the November 2016 RCRA Hazardous Waste Generator rule also discussed during the meeting, we hope that EPA will speedily agree to putting the case in abeyance fo r a limited period of tim e to allow for settlement discussions. We are currently under court order to start briefing this case in June, but as we mentioned we would prefer to work with EPA to address our concerns. Agreeing to a abeyance will allow EPA and industry to avoid dedicating a lot of resources to briefing the court on an issue that potentially could be resolved through settlement.
Thank you in advance for your assistance, and please let me know if there is additional information that you need.
Sincerely,
Fern Abrams Director of Regulatory Affairs and Government Relations IPC- Association Connecting Electronics Industries 1331 Pennsylvania Avenue, Suite 910
