Lighting Resources, Inc., Phoenix, AZ

A Polychlorinated Biphenyl (PCB) Storage and Processing Facility

Lighting Resources, Inc. (Lighting Resources) operates a polychlorinated biphenyl storage and processing facility located at 1522 East Victory Street, Suite 4 in Phoenix, Arizona. Lighting Resources manages the receipt, manifesting, storage, processing, transportation, and recordkeeping of waste containing PCBs.

EPA is conducting a thorough review of the permit application to determine if Lighting Resources satisfies the TSCA requirements for storage and decontamination of PCBs. In making the decision on whether to grant the permit renewal, EPA’s mission is to protect human health and the environment.
