How must I dispose of fluorescent light ballasts with PCBs in the potting material?
This depends on the concentration of PCBs in the potting material and whether the ballast contains an intact or non-intact PCB small capacitor. If the PCB concentration of the potting material is <50 ppm and the ballast contains either no PCB small capacitor or an intact and non-leaking PCB small capacitor, you can dispose of the ballast as municipal solid waste (see §761.60(b)(2)(ii)). If the PCB concentration of the potting material is $50 ppm and the ballast contains either no PCB small capacitor or an intact and non-leaking PCB small capacitor, you can dispose of the ballast as PCB bulk product waste in a TSCA incinerator, a TSCA/RCRA landfill, a facility permitted, licensed, or registered by a state as a municipal or non-municipal non-hazardous waste landfill, or by means of an approved destruction method, decontamination, or risk-based disposal method (see §761.62). Regardless of the PCB concentration of the potting material, you must dispose of ballasts containing non-intact or leaking capacitors as PCB bulk product waste in accordance with §761.62(a) or (c).
