| Description: | Aluminum chaff roving bundles could exhibit the reactivity characteristic (D003) for their propensity to release flammable hydrogen gas when they are exposed to moisture. The Part 268 land disposal restrictions (LDR) treatment standard for these wastes is deactivation, which is best achieved by washing them with an acidic solution (SUPERSEDED: treatment standard is deactivation and meet 268.48 standards, see 268.40). Compliance is evaluated based on the removal of the characteristic, not based on following a specified method of deactivation. |
