| Statutory Authority |
These modifications are made pursuant to the authority granted to the Solid and Hazardous Waste Commission in Section 30-20-109, C.R.S. |
| Description of Subjects/Issues |
The purpose of the amendments is to make changes to the solid waste regulations for conformance with 6 CCR 1007-1, Part 20 (the Part 20 TENORM Regulation) promulgated by the Board of Health in December 2020. The Part 20 TENORM Regulation affects any solid waste facility that manages, or potentially receives, non-exempt TENORM. In addition, the Part 20 Rule has sector-specific requirements for several types of solid waste facilities.
For the purpose of aligning with the Part 20 TENORM Regulation, several changes to the Solid Waste Regulations (6 CCR 1007-2, Part 1) are proposed. First, TENORM related definitions are added to Section 1.2. Second, Section 2.1.2 is amended such that all solid waste disposal sites and facilities required to have waste characterization plans will include waste screening provisions for TENORM constituents in those plans. Furthermore, for each type of solid waste facility addressed specifically in the Part 20 TENORM Regulation, the pertinent requirements from Part 20 are proposed for direct adoption in the Solid Waste Regulations. |
