The National Association of Manufacturers appreciates the opportunity to provide comments on the Environmental Protection Agency's Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to address the management of used industrial containers.

Abstract

In response to growing concerns about environmental and public health issues at drum reconditioning sites, EPA is publishing an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) on the drum reconditioning industry. The purpose of the ANPRM is to engage stakeholders early in the process. EPA is hoping to obtain additional information on the industry as a whole, including waste management practices and more information about damage cases and their impact to nearby communities. The ANPRM will also provide an opportunity for stakeholders to comment on a range of potential ways of addressing these problems, including potential future regulatory changes, as well as suggest other alternatives for EPA to pursue in future rulemakings.
