Document Date: 1995-06-08
To: Cantwell
From: Slaughter
Organization of Recipient: Indiana Department of Environmental Management
Description: Discusses the EPA interpretation of enforceability of comments and notes in the regulations. Comments and notes are not legal requirements. Generators meeting the requirements of Section 262.34 need not comply with Section 265.17(a). Generators may be required to post a 'no smoking' sign in accordance with Section 265.31. Treatment, storage, and disposal facilities (TSDFs) must, at a minimum, post 'no smoking' signs wherever there is a hazard from ignitable or reactive waste, even if the facility has a tobacco-free environment.
