In accordance with Louisiana Administrative Code Title 33, Chapter V, Sections 321.C.1.a.ii, 717.A.1.b, d, and e, Chemical Waste Management, Inc. (CWM), located in Carlyss, Louisiana is notifying you of a Class 1 Permit Modification to our Hazardous Waste Permit.  A Permit Modification Determination request was submitted to the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LaDEQ) on June 12, 2013.  After consideration by LaDEQ, it was determined that a Class 1 permit modification classification was appropriate.  The notification, herein, is being sent to all persons on the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality’s facility mailing list who have requested notification of hazardous waste-related activities at the CWM site and to pertinent units of state and local government.

The minor permit modification involved a slight change in operation of the enclosed bays of the facility’s 801 Building.  In addition to using the enclosed bays for mixing wastes for bio-treatment, the bays will also be used for solidifiying wastes for off-site incineration/thermal treatment.

The modification does not adversely change any hazardous waste operations at the CWM facility.

Copies of the permit modification described above are available for viewing at the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality; Office of Environmental Services – Permits Division; 602 North 5th Street; Baton Rouge, Louisiana; Telephone (225) 219-3010.
