Restrictions; Petition for Exemption--Class I Hazardous Waste Injection 
Dow Chemical Company (DOW), Magnolia, AR

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Notice of a Final Decision on a No Migration Petition.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that an exemption to the land disposal 
restrictions under the 1984 Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments to the 
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act have been granted to Dow 
Chemical Company (DOW) for a Class I injection well located at 
Magnolia, Arkansas. As required by 40 CFR Part 148, the company has 
adequately demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Environmental 
Protection Agency by the petition and supporting documentation that, to 
a reasonable degree of certainty, there will be no migration of 
hazardous constituents from the injection zone for as long as the waste 
remains hazardous. This final decision allows the underground injection 
by DOW, of the specific restricted hazardous wastes identified in this 
exemption, into Class I hazardous waste injection well DWD No. 1 at the 
Magnolia, Arkansas facility, until October 1, 2020, unless EPA moves to 
terminate this exemption under provisions of 40 CFR 148.24. Additional 
conditions included in this final decision may be reviewed by 
contacting the Region 6 Ground Water/UIC Section. As required by 40 CFR 
148.22(b) and 124.10, a public notice was issued July 29, 2010. The 
public comment period closed on September 13, 2010. No comments were 
received. This decision constitutes final Agency action and there is no 
Administrative appeal. This decision may be reviewed/appealed in 
compliance with the Administrative Procedure Act.

DATES: This action is effective as of September 22, 2010.
