42 U.S.C. § 6937 — Inventory of Federal agency hazardous waste facilities

(a) Program requirement; submission; availability; contents. Each Federal agency^* must continually compile, publish, and submit to the Administrator^*—and to the State^* for a site in a State with an authorized hazardous-waste program—an inventory of each site the agency owns or operates, or formerly owned or operated, where hazardous waste^* is or was stored, treated, or disposed of. The inventory is due every two years beginning January 31, 1986, and must be public as section 6927(b) provides. Information already submitted under sections 9603, 6925, 6930, or this section need not be resubmitted, but the agency must update it with the latest available information. The inventory must include: (1) each pre-permit treatment^*, storage, or disposal^* site’s location; for a disposal site, its hydrogeology and withdrawal wells and surface water within one mile; (2) waste amount, nature, and toxicity information needed to determine possible health hazards; (3) known environmental contamination’s nature and extent, including monitoring data; (4) current status, including whether waste is currently treated, stored, or disposed of, when that stopped if applicable, and other current activity; (5) sites where waste was disposed of but environmental monitoring data is missing, with reasons; (6) completed or planned response actions at contaminated sites; (7) treatment, storage, or disposal techniques used; and (8) each site’s name, address, and responsible Federal agency as of preparation.
(b) EPA program. If the Administrator finds that an agency is not adequately providing information, the Administrator must notify its chief official. If within 90 days the agency has not begun an adequate program, the Administrator must run the inventory for that agency.
