The main objectives of the Subtitle D Industrial Facility Telephone Screening Survey (1987) were to develop representative lists of facilities that managed Subtitle D wastes, including landfills, surface impoundments, land application units, and waste piles that are not regulated as hazardous waste handlers and to develop national and industry specific estimates of the number and amount of these facilities of Subtitle D waste that is managed. The sample population was drawn from 17 industry groups that were believed to generate the majority of Subtitle D waste. Data were collected over a period of 6 months, from November 1986 to April 1987. Data gathered in the Industrial Facility Survey was formulated into the report that follows. |
