Last week, the Environmental Daily Advisor discussed PCBs in light ballasts, proposed UST amendments and renewable fuels,and GHS.

Here's the Environmental Daily Advisor week in review.

What to Do with Old Lighting Ballasts--As you upgrade to energy-efficient lighting, you need to be aware that old lighting ballasts may contain now-banned polychlorinated biphenyls or chlorodiphenyls (PCBs. You may need to comply with the PCB requirements under the Toxic Substances and Control Act (TSCA).

What is EPA's rationale behind the inclusion of biodiesel- and ethanol-blended fuels in the Proposed Rule.

Compliance Options for Renewable Fuels Storage in Proposed UST Amendments--What changes are ahead for those who store ethanol- and biodiesel-blended fuels in underground storage tanks.
