Dockets

WIPP

What is a Docket?

A docket is a publicly accessible collection of documents that federal agencies use in making regulatory decisions.

What Dockets does EPA maintain on WIPP?

EPA maintains three dockets for the WIPP.

Docket A-92-56 contains information about the compliance criteria. (Contact us for more information about this docket.)
Docket A-93-02 contains information considered in making the WIPP certification decision.
Docket A-98-49 contains new information that EPA is reviewing to determine whether the certification should be modified, suspended, or revoked.

How can I use the materials in the WIPP dockets?

There are several options for reviewing or obtaining copies of docket materials:

Visit a WIPP docket location

EPA has established WIPP dockets at four locations--three informational docket sites in New Mexico and the official docket at EPA headquarters in Washington, D.C.

They are open to the public, and you can review and photocopy documents at all locations. Check with the individual docket locations about copying arrangements.

Request photocopies by mail from the official docket

The official docket will photocopy and send copies of materials to you upon request. The cost for this service will depend on the amount of material you request (small requests are generally free).

View selected docket materials on-line.

We have included the indices for the two certification dockets and selected materials here on the WIPP Web site. You can view them by clicking on these hyperlinks:
