ACTION: Notice of a final decision on a no migration petition 
reissuance.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that a reissuance of an exemption to 
the land disposal restrictions, under the 1984 Hazardous and Solid 
Waste Amendments to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, has 
been granted to Lyondell Chemical Company for three Class I hazardous 
waste injection wells at the Lyondell Channelview Plant located in 
Channelview, Texas.

DATES: This action was effective as of December 13, 2022.

ADDRESSES: Copies of the petition reissuance and all pertinent 
information relating thereto are on file at the following location:

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ian Ussery, Physical Scientist, Ground 
Water/UIC Section, EPA--Region 6, telephone (214) 665-6639.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As required by 40 CFR part 148, Lyondell has 
adequately demonstrated to the satisfaction of the EPA by the petition 
reissuance application 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 the 
Lyondell Channelview Plant, of the specific restricted hazardous wastes 
identified in this exemption reissuance, into Class I hazardous waste 
injection Wells WDW-148, WDW-162, and WDW-438 when it is drilled in the 
future, until December 31, 2050, 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 September 13, 2022. The public 
comment period closed on October 28, 2022. No comments were received. 
This decision constitutes final Agency action, and there is no 
Administrative appeal.

    Dated: April 17, 2023.
Charles W. Maguire,
Director, Water Division, Region 6.
