NOTICE: PROPOSED RULES

ACTION: Hazardous waste program authorizations:

DOCUMENT ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUBJECT CATEGORY: West Virginia: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management Program Revision

DATES: Send your written comments by November 14, 2003.

DOCUMENT SUMMARY: West Virginia has applied to EPA for final authorization of the changes to its hazardous waste program under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). EPA proposes to grant final authorization to West Virginia. In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal Register, EPA is authorizing the changes by an immediate final rule. EPA did not make a proposal prior to the immediate final rule because we believe this action is not controversial and do not expect comments that oppose it. We have explained the reasons for this authorization in the preamble to the immediate final rule. Unless we receive written comments which oppose this authorization during the comment period, the immediate final rule will become effective on the date it establishes, and we will not take further action on this proposal. However, if we receive comments that oppose this action, or portions thereof, we will withdraw the relevant portions of the immediate final rule, and they will not take effect. We will then respond to public comments in a later final rule based on this proposal. You may not have another opportunity for comment. If you want to comment on this action, you must do so at this time.

SUMMARY: West Virginia,


SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

For additional information, please see the immediate final rule published in the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal Register.
