RD&D permits are only available in states with approved MSWLF permit programs which have been modified to incorporate RD&D permit authority. While States are not required to seek approval for this new provision, those States that are interested in providing RD&D permits to owners and operators of MSWLFs must seek approval from U.S. EPA before issuing such permits. Approval procedures for new provisions of 40 CFR Part 258 are outlined in 40 CFR 239.12. Illinois MSWLF permit program was approved on January 3, 1994 (59 FR 86). On September 21, 2005, Illinois applied for approval of its RD&D permit provisions. Illinois submitted its rules under R05–1 for review. On November 23, 2005, EPA published a Notice of proposed determination of adequacy of Illinois RD&D permit requirements (70 FR 70841). The notice provided a public comment period that ended on December 23, 2005. No comments were received during the comment period. Today’s final action determines that Illinois RD&D permit provisions as defined under Illinois rule R05–1 are adequate to ensure compliance with the Federal criteria as defined at 40 CFR 258.4. Authority: This action is issued under the authority of section 2002, 4005 and 4010(c) of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 6912, 6945 and 6949(a). Dated: January 13, 2006.

Frequency of Response: Recordkeeping; One-time reporting requirement; Third party disclosure. Total Annual Burden: 76,000 hours. Total Annual Cost: $12,000,000. Privacy Impact Assessment: No. Needs and Uses: The equipment authorization procedure requires that equipment manufacturers or equipment suppliers test a product to ensure compliance with technical standards for limiting radio frequency emissions and include a declaration of compliance (DoC) with the standards in the literature furnished with the equipment. This statement of conformity and supporting technical data would be made available to the FCC by the responsible party, at the request of the FCC. Further, the FCC will permit personal computers to be authorized based on tests and approval of their individual components, without further testing of the completed assembly. Testing and documentation of compliance aids in controlling potential interference to radio communications. The data may be used for investigating complaints of harmful interference; to determine that the equipment marketed complies with the applicable FCC Rules; and to insure that the operation of the equipment is consistent with the initially documented test results.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Background

    On March 22, 2004, U.S. EPA issued a final rule amending the 
municipal solid waste landfill criteria in 40 CFR part 258 to allow for 
research, development and demonstration (RD&D) permits (69 FR 13242). 
This rule allows for variances from specified criteria for a limited 
period of time, to be implemented through state-issued RD&D permits. 
RD&D permits are only available in states with approved MSWLF permit 
programs which have been modified to incorporate RD&D permit authority. 
While States are not required to seek approval for this new provision, 
those States that are interested in providing RD&D permits to owners 
and operators of MSWLFs must seek approval from U.S. EPA before issuing 
such permits. Approval procedures for new provisions of 40 CFR Part 258 
are outlined in 40 CFR 239.12.
    Illinois MSWLF permit program was approved on January 3, 1994 (59 
FR 86). On September 21, 2005, Illinois applied for approval of its 
RD&D permit provisions. Illinois submitted its rules under R05-1 for 
review. On November 23, 2005, EPA published a Notice of proposed 
determination of adequacy of Illinois RD&D permit requirements (70 FR 
70841). The notice provided a public comment period that ended on 
December 23, 2005. No comments were received during the comment period. 
Today's final action determines that Illinois RD&D permit provisions as 
defined under Illinois rule R05-1 are adequate to ensure compliance 
with the Federal criteria as defined at 40 CFR 258.4.

    Authority: This action is issued under the authority of section 
2002, 4005 and 4010(c) of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, as amended, 
42 U.S.C. 6912, 6945 and 6949(a).
