RCRA Subtitle C Household Waste Exclusion 1. forego costly TCLP testing and 2. dispose of LBP debris in municipal solid waste landfills and other approved solid waste disposal facilities. This project will not only reduce exposure risks for an estimated 30 children in 12 homes in Boston, but has the potential to encourage more lead remediation throughout the nation, potentially resulting in thousands of children being spared from lead poisoning. EPA expects this project to increase national awareness of EPA’s policy clarification related to the regulatory status of residential LBP waste, dated July 31, 2000. Also, this project will stress the importance of partnership with the states and tribes and urges the use of best management, handling, storage and disposal practices that could increase the efficiency and safety of similar projects throughout the country.
