biphenyls (PCBs), are regulated under the Toxic Substances
Control Act (TSCA). In North Dakota, PCBs are not considered to
be a hazardous waste. Regulations concerning PCBs may be found
in Title 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Chapter I,
Subchapter R, Part 761. North Dakota is not authorized to
implement these regulations, but has entered into a cooperative
agreement with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to
conduct inspections of facilities for proper disposal of PCB
wastes. A representative of the Hazardous Waste Program conducts
the inspection and prepares an inspection report which is sent
to EPA Region VIII for compliance evaluation and enforcement
actions. Some helpful documents and links follow: Code Of
