  • 2024-27859 — Record of Decision for the Long-Term Management and Storage of Elemental Mercury and Designation of a Long-Term Management and Storage Facility
    Type:Notice
    Citation:89 FR 95189
    Reading Time:about 42 minutes

    The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has decided to designate Waste Control Specialists (WCS) in Andrews County, Texas, as the long-term management and storage facility for elemental mercury in the United States. This decision, part of the Mercury Export Ban Act of 2008 and its updates, aims to safely store up to 7,000 metric tons of mercury. Using an existing, permitted facility like WCS is seen as the most efficient solution to meet statutory responsibilities, avoid construction delays, and minimize costs. The designation allows DOE access and oversight, ensuring compliance with environmental and health safety standards.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. Department of Energy has picked a special place in Texas to safely keep a lot of mercury, which is a shiny, liquid metal that could be harmful if not stored correctly. They decided using this spot is faster and cheaper than building a new one.
