Other Surface Impoundment
Surface impoundments include natural topographic depressions, man-made
excavations and diked areas that primarily are made of earthen materials
and which hold liquid wastes. These uncovered areas are commonly used to
volatilize and/or settle materials. Other surface impoundments are surface
impoundments other than those which are authorized under the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) to accept hazardous waste for
disposal. Data from Section 5.5.3B on the TRI Form R. Prior to reporting
year 2003, these amounts were included in Section 5.5.3(Surface
Impoundments).
