(printed as 5/19/2006)CommentThank you for including the Bureau of Waste Management in your comments. The Conditions part 1. ask for K & O to send comments concerning NPDES requirements. The Bureau of Waste Management regulates Solid Waste Issues for the state of Kansas. We would like to include: any salvage activities shall comply with all state Solid Waste Statues and Regulations concerning the proper disposal of all railroad ties. We would like to see documentation of ALL Railroad Ties within the state. We are concern with the Illegal Disposal of Railroad Ties where contracters in the past have left hundreds if not thousands of railroad ties on private properties. These ties then become an environmental nuisance and we view this type of disposal as Illegal Dumping. We need to make it clear to all companies the proper management of railroad ties does not mean to find a landowner in the area to dispose of these ties. We are working with Union Pacific at this time cleaning up sites where contractors in the past have dumped thousands of railroad ties on private landowners and now they have become an environmental threat to the surrounding community. Requiring proper documentation to our Bureau will ensure this practice does not continue in the state of Kansas. The Bureau of Waste Management appreciates being a part of the Environmental Assessment's process. Please send any comments to: Bob Medina, Environmental Scientist,Bureau of Waste Management.Bob Medina · Topeka, Kansas
