Which document states the facility's ability to treat, store, and dispose of hazardous waste?

• A. WAP
• B. Closure Plan
• C. Dirty Closure Plan
• D. Part A permit

Answer: (D)

Authorization to handle hazardous waste is defined in the Part A permit. This section of a RCRA permit lays out the facility’s allowed hazardous waste activities—treatment, storage, and disposal—and lists the specific waste types and management units the facility may operate. It is the formal statement of the facility’s capability to treat, store, and dispose of hazardous waste. Other documents serve different purposes: a Waste Analysis Plan explains how waste is characterized, a Closure Plan covers the steps to shut down the facility, and a Dirty Closure Plan isn’t a standard regulatory document for this purpose.
