Subject:Comments on Cumberland County HHW Permit Renewal, 26FH, DIN 28171
Hi Aaron:
The Solid Waste Section (SWS) completed a review of the permit amendment application (DIN 27975) for
Cumberland County Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Collection Facility, Permit Number 26FH-
HHW. The application was received on 06/16/2017. After reviewing the document, the SWS has several
comments on the application which are stated below:
- (Operational Plan - Facility Staffing on Page 1 of 15) ECOFLO is the current contractor for bulking,
over-packing, transporting and disposal/recycling of the collected HHW. Please provide a copy of the
contact agreement between Cumberland County and ECOFLO, Inc.
- (Operational Plan – Hospital on Page 14 of 15) The rout to the designated hospital is shown on Figure
3, please make the reference to the section.
The SWS currently allows the NC HHW Collection Facility to collect and temporarily store permitted
hazardous waste from conditionally exempt small quantity generators (CESQGs) as defined in 40 CFR 261.5.
However, hazardous waste (s) that collected from a CESQG shall be accounted for and reported separately from the
HHW. A copy of the report shall be sent annually to the Hazardous Waste Section of the NCDEQ Division of Waste
Management. If Cumberland County intends to use the facility to collect hazardous waste (s) from a CESQG (s)
within the county’s service area – Cumberland County, please add the waste management approaches to the revised
permit application. It is advised that the County may need to discuss this new business with ECOFLO, should the
changes result in increasing waste quantity or other concerns and consequently amending the existing contract deem
necessary.
Please contact me if you have any questions on the comment. Have a wonderful day.
