The U.S. Department of Energy is holding a 60-day public comment period on a proposed Class 2 permit modification to the Hanford Dangerous Waste Permit, “Liquid Effluent Retention Facility and 200 Area Effluent Treatment Facility” chapter.

The comment period is from Dec. 15, 2020, through Feb. 13, 2021. A virtual public meeting will be held Jan. 21, 2021, at 5:30 p.m. PT. To participate via GoToWebinar, please follow the instructions below:
