NOTICE: PROPOSED RULES

ACTION: State Hazardous Waste Management Program:

DOCUMENT ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUBJECT CATEGORY: Alabama: Proposed Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management Program Revision

DATES: Comments must be received on or before May 2, 2008.

DOCUMENT SUMMARY: Alabama 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 Alabama. 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 of the immediate final rule. Unless we get 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. If we receive comments that oppose this action, we will withdraw the immediate final rule and it will not take effect. We will respond to public comments in a later final rule based on this proposal. You may not have another opportunity for comment.

SUMMARY: Alabama,
