Abstract
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) publishes in the Federal Register periodic updates to the Federal Hazardous Waste regulations. If the updated regulations are considered by the EPA to be more stringent than existing regulations, DHEC is required to adopt them. If the EPA determines the updated regulations are less stringent than existing regulations, DHEC is not required to adopt them, but generally does to remain consistent with federal regulations. This is a summary of recent and planned revisions to the S.C. Hazardous Waste Management Regulations.
