Dear Mr. Malaney:
This has reference to your letter dated March 30, 1981, addressed to
Mr. Tom Bradshaw# .Secretary of Transportation, which has been forwarded

The State of North Carolina has received interium authorization from

for containers, marking, storage and disposal of PCBs.
Any carrier providing for-hire transportation through or within the
State of North Carolina is required to register its operation with the
North Carolina Utilities Commission. This Division will furnish regis-
tration forms for the type of operation involved.
Fuel permits may be obtained from the North Carolina Department of
Revenue, Gasoline Tax Division, P.O. Box 25000, Raleigh, N. C. 27640,

Re: Request for general information and state manifest
requirements
1. Does your state require compliance with the RCRA manifest
system for transportation of PCBs as defined by the US EPA?
2. Does your state utilize a separate manifest applicable to
the transporation of PCBs?
Please provide copies of your state manifest used for RCRA
classified hazardous wastes. If your state has any additional
transportation permit requirements or special hauling regulations
please include these with your reply.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
?1~~
