==================== Disposal Considerations ====================
Waste Disposal Methods:IF PROD BECOMES WASTE, IT DOES NOT MEET CRITERIA
OF HAZ WASTE AS DEFINED UNDER RCRA 40 CFR 261, SINCE IT DOES NOT
HAVE CHARACTS OF SUBPART C, NOR IS IT LISTED UNDER SUBPART D. AS
NON-HAZ LIQ WASTE, IT SHOULD BE SOLIDIFIED W/STABILIZING AGENTS
(SUCH AS SAND, FLY ASH/CEMENT) SO THAT NO FREE LIQ REMAIN S BEFORE
DISP TO INDUS WASTE LANDFILL. (SUP DAT)
