 PCB Technical Corrections Rule, 64 Fed. Reg. 33755 (June 24, 1999) 

The Environmental Protection Agency published in the Federal Register of June 29, 1998 a document amending the regulations affecting disposal of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). EPA has identified several technical errors in that document. This rule corrects those errors. In addition, this rule establishes procedures for requesting an approval for risk-based sampling, cleanup, storage, or disposal of PCB remediation waste, and for risk-based decontamination or sampling of decontaminated material, where those activities occur in more than one EPA Region.
