DOES THE RECENT CHANGE TO THE EPA’S LEGACY CCR RULE AFFECT YOUR PLANT?
On May 8, 2024, EPA finalized changes to the CCR regulations for inactive surface impoundments, referred to as “legacy CCR surface impoundments.” Within tailored compliance deadlines, owners and operators of legacy CCR surface impoundments must comply with all existing requirements applicable to inactive CCR surface impoundments at active facilities, except for the location restrictions and liner design criteria.
Wastewater management is unique to each site. With over 100 years of CCR expertise, UCC Environmental ensures that the multiple factors influencing flow rate, CCR composition, particle size distribution, as well as pH and heavy metal contaminants found in CCR surface impoundment wastewater are evaluated and tailored to meet the needs of your facility.
Wastewater Treatment requirements will continually change throughout the lifecycle of your pond closure project, requiring a predictable and agile solution to ensure full compliance and eliminate costly delays. With a comprehensive understanding of contaminant behaviors, wastewater chemistry, and treatment technologies – UCC Environmental provides technical solutions to meet these changing demands and provide peace of mind to our customers and their communities.
