Sodium bicarbonate and sodium carbonate are not listed on the CERCLA list of
Hazardous Substances. Therefore, a "Reportable Quantity" (RQ) has not been
established for either compound. When spills of hazardous substances occur with a
quantity greater than the RQ, they are reportable to the applicable regulatory agencies.
Sodium bicarbonate and sodium carbonate are also not listed as SARA Extremely
Hazardous Substances (EHS) nor are they classified as SARA Toxic Chemicals (EPCRA
313). Thus, these solutions do not have Threshold Planning Quantities (TPQs), and a
release of these materials is not reportable in the Toxic Release inventory (TRI or Form
R) Report. Sodium bicarbonate and sodium carbonate wastes would not be defined as
hazardous wastes under RCRA. More information on these regulatory requirements is
provided in the preliminary Response Plan.
Sodium bicarbonate and sodium carbonate solutions are considered to be hazardous
chemicals under OSHA. Storage information for these solutions may also be reportable
under the SARA Title [I[, Tier [/Tier li program. These requirements are also discussed
in the preliminary Response Plan.
Although many of the common spill response regulations do not apply to sodium
bicarbonate and sodium carbonate solutions, all releases would be reportable to the
BLM. Furthermore, all releases would require immediate control and containment.
