CFR Citation: 40 CFR Part 271

FRL ID: [FRL-7482-2]

NOTICE: PROPOSED RULES

ACTION: Hazardous waste program authorizations:

DOCUMENT ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUBJECT CATEGORY: Hazardous Waste Management Program: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management Program Revisions for State of Texas

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before May 15, 2003.

DOCUMENT SUMMARY: The EPA (also, ``the Agency'' in this preamble) is proposing to grant final authorization to the hazardous waste program revisions submitted by the State of Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission for its hazardous waste program revisions, specifically, revisions needed to meet the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Clusters VII through X , which contain Federal rules promulgated between July 1, 1995 to June 30, 2000. In the ``Rules and
Regulations'section of this Federal Register (FR), EPA is authorizing the State's program revisions as an immediate final rule without prior proposal because the EPA views this action as noncontroversial and anticipates no adverse comments. The Agency has explained the reasons for this authorization in the preamble to the immediate final rule. If EPA does not receive adverse written comments, the immediate final rule will become effective and the Agency will not take further action on this proposal. If EPA receives adverse written comments, a second Federal Register document will be published before the time the immediate final rule takes effect. The second document may withdraw the immediate final rule or identify the issues raised, respond to the comments and affirm that the immediate final rule will take effect as scheduled. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time.

SUMMARY: Texas,
