standards for the Centralized Waste Treatment Category (formerly called 
Waste Treatment Phase I). The EPA intends to propose later this year, 
and this is the only public meeting that the Agency plans to sponsor 
prior to proposal. The meeting is intended to be a forum in which EPA 
can report on the status of the regulatory development and in which 
interested parties can provide information and ideas to the Agency on 
key technical, scientific, and other issues.

DATES: The public meeting will be held on March 8, 1994, from 9 a.m. to 
5 p.m.

ADDRESSES: The meeting will be held at the U.S. Geological Survey 
(USGS) National Center Auditorium, 12201 Sunrise Valley Drive, Reston,

operations are not included: thermal destruction, incineration, 
stabilization, fuel blending, or solvent recycling.
    The public meeting will include a discussion of the scope of the 
regulation, summary of industry information, preliminary plans for 
technology-based regulatory options, and general CWT issues. The 
meeting will not be recorded by a reporter or transcribed for inclusion 
in the record for the Centralized Waste Treatment Category rulemaking.
    Documents relating to the topics mentioned above and a more 
detailed agenda will be available at the meeting.
