EPA drops annual reports on dump sites reform
The EPA will replace mandatory annual waste fate reports with random spot checks of 10 percent of 50 000 to 60 000 generators and 11 000 storage facilities. Gary Dietrich says the 1980 requirement was not executed and data collection never occurred. The new plan uses a questionnaire backed by followups to sample hazardous waste data.
