DEQ to host public hearing on P. Kay Metal variance

December 6, 2024

BOISE – The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) is holding a public hearing on a variance from a hazardous waste treatment storage or disposal facility permit for P. Kay Metal Lewiston, LLC.

The public hearing on the variance renewal will be held on January 7, 2025, at 5:30 p.m. Pacific Time. The meeting will be held virtually via Microsoft Teams.

P. Kay Metal is a lead recycling operation that produces lead and lead alloys in bar and wire form for a variety of uses. The variance would allow the facility to receive shipments of lead-bearing hazardous secondary materials (HSM) for reclamation from states that use a uniform hazardous waste manifest as a shipping document without obtaining a hazardous waste permit. The variance does not authorize receipt of hazardous waste, only HSM.

The variance materials are available at DEQ’s State Office (1410 N. Hilton Street, Boise, Idaho 83706), Lewiston Regional Office (1118 F Street,
Lewiston, Idaho 83501), and on DEQ’s website. For more information, contact Bo Norton at (208) 373-0425 or Bo.Norton@deq.idaho.gov.
