Washington: Final Authorization of
State Hazardous Waste Management
Program Revisions
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
Washington has applied to
EPA for final authorization of certain
changes to its hazardous waste
management program under the
Resource Conservation and Recovery
Act, as amended, (RCRA). On June 18,
2010, EPA published a proposed rule to
authorize the changes and opened a
public comment period under Docket ID
No. EPA–R10–RCRA–2010–0251. The
comment period closed on July 19,
2010. EPA has decided that the
revisions to the Washington hazardous
waste management program satisfy all of
the requirements necessary to qualify
for final authorization and EPA is
authorizing these revisions to
Washington’s authorized hazardous
waste management program in this
Final rule.
DATES: Effective Date: Final
authorization for the revisions to the
hazardous waste management program
in Washington shall be effective at 1
p.m. EST on July 28, 2010.
ADDRESSES: EPA established a docket
for this action under Docket ID No.
EPA–R10–RCRA–2010–0251. All
documents in the docket are available
electronically on the Web site https://
www.regulations.gov. A hard copy of the
authorization revision application is
also available for viewing, during
normal business hours at the U.S.

SUMMARY:
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:21 Jul 27, 2010
Jkt 220001
A. Why are revisions to State programs
necessary?
States which have received final
authorization from EPA under RCRA
section 3006(b), 42 U.S.C. 6926(b), must
maintain a hazardous waste
management program that is equivalent
to, consistent with, and no less stringent
than the Federal program. As the
Federal program changes, States must
change their programs and ask EPA to
authorize the changes. Changes to State
programs may be necessary when
Federal or State statutory or regulatory
authority is modified or when certain
other changes occur. Most commonly,
States must change their programs
because of changes to EPA’s regulations
in Title 40 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) parts 124, 260
through 266, 268, 270, 273, and 279.
B. What decisions have we made in this
rule?
EPA has made a final determination
that Washington’s application to revise
its authorized program meets all of the
statutory and regulatory requirements
established by RCRA. Therefore, we are
granting Washington final authorization
to operate its hazardous waste
management program for the changes
described in its revised program
application. Washington will have
responsibility for permitting treatment,
storage, and disposal facilities (TSDFs)
within its borders, except in Indian
country (18 U.S.C. 1151), and for
carrying out the aspects of the RCRA
program described in its revised
program application, subject to the
limitations of the Hazardous and Solid
Waste Amendments of 1984 (HSWA).
New Federal requirements and
prohibitions imposed by Federal
regulations that EPA promulgates under
the authority of HSWA, which are more
stringent than existing requirements,
take effect in authorized States before
the State is authorized for these
PO 00000
Frm 00080
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
requirements. Thus, EPA will
implement those requirements and
prohibitions in Washington, including
issuing permits, until the State is
granted authorization to do so.
C. What is the effect of this
authorization decision?
The effect of this action is that a
facility in Washington subject to RCRA
will have to comply with the authorized
State requirements instead of the
corresponding Federal requirements in
order to comply with RCRA.
Additionally, such persons will have to
comply with any applicable Federal
requirements, such as, HSWA
regulations issued by EPA for which the
State has not received authorization,
and RCRA requirements that are not
supplanted by authorized State-issued
requirements. Washington has
enforcement responsibilities under its
State hazardous waste management
program for violations of its currently
authorized program and will have
enforcement responsibilities for the
revisions which are the subject of this
final rule. EPA continues to have
independent enforcement authority
under RCRA sections 3007, 3008, 3013,
and 7003, which include,, among
others, authority to:
• Conduct inspections; require
monitoring, tests, analyses, or reports;
• Enforce RCRA requirements;
suspend, terminate, modify or revoke
permits; and
• Take enforcement actions regardless
of whether the State has taken its own
actions.
This action to approve these revisions
would not impose additional
requirements on the regulated
community because the regulations for
which Washington will be authorized
are already effective under State law
and are not changed by the act of
authorization.
D. What were the comments on EPA’s
proposed rule?
On June 18, 2010 (75 FR 34674), EPA
published a proposed rule to grant
authorization of changes to
Washington’s hazardous waste
management program subject to public
comment. The public comment period
opened on June 18, 2010 and ended on
July 19, 2010. The Agency did not
receive any comments on the proposed
rule.
E. What has Washington previously
been authorized for?
Washington initially received final
authorization on January 30, 1986,
effective January 31, 1986 (51 FR 3782),
to implement the State’s dangerous

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 144 / Wednesday, July 28, 2010 / Rules and Regulations
waste management program. EPA
granted authorization for changes to
Washington’s program on September 22,
1987, effective on November 23, 1987
(52 FR 35556); August 17, 1990,
effective October 16, 1990 (55 FR
33695); November 4, 1994, effective
November 4, 1994 (59 FR 55322);
February 29, 1996, effective April 29,
1996 (61 FR 7736); September 22, 1998,
effective October 22, 1998 (63 FR
50531); October 12, 1999, effective
January 11, 2000 (64 FR 55142); April
11, 2002, effective April 11, 2002 (67 FR
17636); April 14, 2006, effective June
13, 2006 (71 FR 19442) and on October
30, 2006 effective December 29, 2006
(71 FR 63253).
F. What changes are we authorizing
with this action?
On May 18, 2010, Washington
submitted a hazardous waste
management program revision
application seeking authorization of its
changes in accordance with 40 CFR
271.21. On May 28, 2010 we determined
that Washington’s program revision
application was complete. EPA has
determined that Washington’s
hazardous waste management program
revisions, as described in the State’s
44145
authorization revision application dated
May 18, 2010 satisfy the requirements
necessary to qualify for final
authorization. The following program
changes as identified in Table 1 and
Table 2 below will be authorized with
this action. The State is authorized for
those federal rules as published in 40
CFR parts 260 through 265, 268, 270,
and 279 that the State incorporated by
reference as of July 1, 2007, unless
otherwise noted; and all of the
referenced analogous State authorities
were legally adopted and effective State
rules as of July 31, 2009.

sroberts on DSKD5P82C1PROD with RULES
G. Where are the revised State rules
different from the Federal rules?
This section does not discuss all the
program differences, because in most
instances Washington writes its own
version of the Federal hazardous waste
rules. This section highlights those more
notable differences between the revised
State rules and the Federal rules. The
State regulations that EPA is authorizing
are located in Tables 1 and 2 above, and
by viewing the Docket. There are certain
portions of the Federal program which
are not delegable to the States because
of the Federal government’s special role
in foreign policy matters and because of
national concerns that arise with certain
decisions. For example, EPA does not
delegate import/export functions. Under
RCRA regulations found in 40 CFR part
262, EPA will continue to implement
requirements for import/export
functions. However, the State rules
found at WAC 173–303–230 reference
EPA’s export and import requirements
and the State has amended these
references to include those changes
promulgated in the Federal rule
‘‘Corrections to Errors in the Code of
Federal Regulation, (71 FR 40254,
7/14/06)’’.
The State did not adopt the Federal
Methods Innovation Rule (70 FR 34537,
6/14/05) which amended a variety of
testing and monitoring requirements
found in RCRA and removed from the
Federal regulations a requirement to use
the methods found in ‘‘EPA’s Test
Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste,
Physical/Chemical Methods,’’ also
known as ‘‘SW–846’’ in conducting
various testing and monitoring. The
State retained the RCRA-related
sampling and analysis requirement to
use the testing methods found in ‘‘SW–
846,’’ and EPA considers these changes
to be state-initiated changes within the
scope of Ecology’s existing
authorization that are consistent with
and no less stringent than the Federal
program. (Note: The State does have an
existing state-only petition process for
VerDate Mar<15>2010

deviating from ‘‘SW–846’’ for equivalent
testing methods, found at WAC 173–
303–110(5) which is not part of its stateonly rule and isn’t part of the federallyauthorized program. Additionally, in
Table 2, above, those State citations
identified with an asterisk (*) indicate
those state provisions where ‘‘SW–846’’
testing methods must be used.)
The State’s definition of ‘‘Designated
facility’’, found at WAC 173–303–040, is
equivalent to the Federal definition,
found at 40 CFR 260.10, with the
exception of one broader in scope
phrase that is a state-only requirement.
The broader in scope phrase that is not
authorized is: ‘‘The following are
designated facilities only for receipt of
State-only waste; they cannot receive
federal hazardous waste from off-site:
Facilities operating under WAC 173–
303–500(2)(c).’’
States are allowed to seek
authorization for more stringent
requirements than the Federal program.
EPA has the authority to authorize and
enforce those parts of a State’s program
EPA finds to be more stringent than the
Federal program. The State revised its
previous federally authorized mercurycontaining equipment requirements
with the adoption of the Federal Rule
for Mercury-Containing Equipment
Universal Waste (70 FR 45508, 8/5/06).
The State’s revised mercury-containing
equipment universal waste rule is more
stringent than the Federal rule as the
State regulates lamps at a lower
accumulation limit than the Federal
rule. Specifically, the State’s definitions
of small and large quantity handlers of
universal waste found at WAC 173–
303–040 are more stringent than the
Federal definitions found at 40 CFR
273.9; and the State’s large quantity
handlers of universal waste notification
standards found at WAC 173–303–
573(19)(b)(v) are more stringent than the
Federal notification standards found at
40 CFR 273.32(b)(5). Additionally, the
State adopted some portions of the
Federal Burden Reduction Initiative
Rule (70 FR 16862, 4/4/06). The State’s
PO 00000
Frm 00086
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
rule retains many of the Federal
requirements that were reduced by the
Federal Burden Reduction Initiative
Rule, and as a result those requirements
retained by the State are more stringent
than their Federal counterparts. The
State’s definitions of ‘‘Cathode ray tubes
(CRT) and CRT collector’’ found at WAC
173–303–040 are more stringent than
the Federal CRT definitions found at 40
CFR 260.10, because the State defines a
CRT to mean all categories of CRTs
(intact, used and broken) and requires
that all CRTs be managed (WAC 173–
303–071(3)(oo)(i)–(iv)) under the same
standards used in the federal program
for used and broken CRTs (40 CFR
261.39).
H. Who handles permits after this
authorization takes effect?
After authorization, Washington will
continue to issue permits for all the
provisions for which it is authorized
and will administer the permits it
issues. If EPA issued permits prior to
authorizing Washington for these
revisions, these permits would continue
in force according to the terms of such
permits until the effective date of the
State’s issuance or denial of a State
hazardous waste management permit, at
which time, EPA would modify the
existing EPA permit to expire at an
earlier date, terminate the existing EPA
permit for cause, or allow the existing
EPA permit to otherwise expire by its
terms, except for those facilities located
in Indian Country. EPA will not issue
any new permits, permit components, or
new portions of permits for the
provisions listed in Section G after the
effective date of this authorization. EPA
will continue to implement and issue
permits for HSWA requirements for
which Washington is not yet authorized.
I. What is codification and is EPA
codifying Washington’s hazardous
waste program as authorized in this
final rule?
Codification is the process of placing
the State’s statutes and regulations that
E:\FR\FM\28JYR1.SGM
28JYR1
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 144 / Wednesday, July 28, 2010 / Rules and Regulations
comprise the State’s authorized
hazardous waste program into the Code
of Federal Regulations. This is done by
referencing the authorized State rules in
40 CFR part 272. EPA is reserving the
amendment of 40 CFR part 272, subpart
WW for this authorization of
Washington’s program revisions until a
later date.
J. How does today’s action affect Indian
Country (18 U.S.C. 1151) in
Washington?
EPA’s decision to authorize the
Washington hazardous waste
management program does not include
any land that is, or becomes after the
date of authorization, ‘‘Indian Country,’’
as defined in 18 U.S.C. 1151, with the
exception of the non-trust lands within
the exterior boundaries of the Puyallup
Indian Reservation (also referred to as
the ‘‘1873 Survey Area’’ or ‘‘Survey
Area’’) located in Tacoma, Washington.
EPA retains jurisdiction over ‘‘Indian
Country’’. Effective October 22, 1998 (63
FR 50531, 9/22/98) the State of
Washington was authorized to
implement the State’s federallyauthorized hazardous waste
management program on the non-trust
lands within the 1873 Survey Area of
the Puyallup Indian Reservation. The
authorization did not extend to trust
lands within the reservation. EPA
retains its authority to implement RCRA
on trust lands and over Indians and
Indian activities within the 1873 Survey
Area.

K. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
This final rule revises the State of
Washington’s authorized hazardous
waste management program pursuant to
section 3006 of RCRA and imposes no
requirements other than those currently
imposed by State law. This final rule
complies with applicable executive
orders and statutory provisions as
follows:
1. Executive Order 12866
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR
51735, October 4, 1993), the Agency
must determine whether the regulatory
action is ‘‘significant’’, and therefore
subject to OMB review and the
requirements of the Executive Order.
The Executive Order defines ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ as one that is likely to
result in a rule that may: (1) Have an
annual effect on the economy of $100
million or more, or adversely affect in
a material way, the economy, a sector of
the economy, productivity, competition,
jobs, the environment, public health or
safety, or State, local, or tribal
governments or communities; (2) create
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:21 Jul 27, 2010
Jkt 220001
a serious inconsistency or otherwise
interfere with an action taken or
planned by another agency; (3)
materially alter the budgetary impact of
entitlements, grants, user fees, or loan
programs, or the rights and obligations
of recipients thereof; or (4) raise novel
legal or policy issues arising out of legal
mandates, the President’s priorities, or
the principles set forth in the Executive
Order. EPA has determined that this
final rule is not a ‘‘significant regulatory
action’’ under the terms of Executive
Order 12866 and is therefore not subject
to OMB review.
2. Paperwork Reduction Act
This action does not impose an
information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction
Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., because this
final rule does not establish or modify
any information or recordkeeping
requirements for the regulated
community and only seeks to authorize
the pre-existing requirements under
State law and imposes no additional
requirements beyond those imposed by
State law. Burden means the total time,
effort, or financial resources expended
by persons to generate, maintain, retain,
or disclose or provide information to or
for a Federal agency. This includes the
time needed to review instructions;
develop, acquire, install, and utilize
technology and systems for the purposes
of collecting, validating, and verifying
information, processing, and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information; adjust the
existing ways to comply with any
previously applicable instructions and
requirements; train personnel to be able
to respond to a collection of
information; search data sources;
complete and review the collection of
information; and transmit or otherwise
disclose the information. An Agency
may not conduct or sponsor, and a
person is not required to respond to, a
collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number. The OMB control numbers for
EPA’s regulations in Title 40 of the CFR
are listed in 40 CFR part 9.
3. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
generally requires Federal agencies to
prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis
of any rule subject to notice and
comment rulemaking requirements
under the Administrative Procedure Act
or any other statute unless the agency
certifies that the rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
Small entities include small businesses,
small organizations, and small
PO 00000
Frm 00087
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
44151
governmental jurisdictions. For
purposes of assessing the impacts of
today’s final rule on small entities,
small entity is defined as: (1) A small
business defined by the Small Business
Administration’s size regulations at 13
CFR Part 121.201; (2) a small
governmental jurisdiction that is a
government of a city, county, town,
school district, or special district with a
population of less than 50,000; and (3)
a small organization that is any not-forprofit enterprise which is independently
owned and operated and is not
dominant in its field. I certify that this
final rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities because the
final rule will only have the effect of
authorizing pre-existing requirements
under State law and imposes no
additional requirements beyond those
imposed by State law.
4. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
Title II of the Unfunded Mandates
Reform Act (UMRA) of 1995 (Pub. L.
104–4) establishes requirements for
Federal agencies to assess the effects of
their regulatory actions on State, local,
and tribal governments and the private
sector. Under section 202 of the UMRA,
EPA generally must prepare a written
Statement, including a cost-benefit
analysis, for proposed and final rules
with ‘‘Federal mandates’’ that may result
in expenditures and final rules with
‘‘Federal mandates’’ that may result in
expenditures to State, local, and tribal
governments, in the aggregate, or to the
private sector, of $100 million or more
in any one year. Before promulgating an
EPA rule for which a written Statement
is needed section 205 of the UMRA
generally requires EPA to identify and
consider a reasonable number of
regulatory alternatives and adopt the
least costly, most cost-effective or least
burdensome alternative that achieves
the objectives of the rule. The
provisions of section 205 do not apply
when they are inconsistent with
applicable law. Moreover, section 205
allows EPA to adopt an alternative other
than the least costly, most cost-effective,
or least burdensome alternative if the
Administrator publishes with the rule
an explanation why the alternative was
not adopted. Before EPA establishes any
regulatory requirements that may
significantly or uniquely affect small
governments, including tribal
governments, it must have developed
under section 203 of the UMRA a small
government agency plan. The plan must
provide for notifying potentially
affected small governments, enabling
officials of affected small governments
to have meaningful and timely input in
E:\FR\FM\28JYR1.SGM
28JYR1
44152
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 144 / Wednesday, July 28, 2010 / Rules and Regulations
the development of EPA regulatory
proposals with significant Federal
intergovernmental mandates, and
informing, educating, and advising
small governments on compliance with
the regulatory requirements. Today’s
final rule contains no Federal mandates
(under the regulatory provisions of Title
II of the UMRA) for State, local, or tribal
governments or the private sector. It
imposes no new enforceable duty on
any State, local or tribal governments or
the private sector. Similarly, EPA has
also determined that this final rule
contains no regulatory requirements that
might significantly or uniquely affect
small government entities. Thus, today’s
final rule is not subject to the
requirements of sections 202 and 203 of
the UMRA.
5. Executive Order 13132: Federalism
This final rule does not have
Federalism implications. It will not
have substantial direct effects on the
States, on the relationship between the
national government and the States, or
on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among various levels of
government, as specified in Executive
Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10,
1999). This final rule authorizes preexisting State rules. Therefore,
Executive Order 13132 does not apply
to this final rule.
6. Executive Order 13175: Consultation
and Coordination With Indian Tribal
Governments
Executive Order 13175, entitled
‘‘Consultation and Coordination with
Indian Tribal Governments’’ (59 FR
22951, November 9, 2000), requires EPA
to develop an accountable process to
ensure ‘‘meaningful and timely input by
tribal officials in the development of
regulatory policies that have tribal
implications.’’ This final rule does not
have tribal implications, as specified in
Executive Order 13175 because EPA
retains its authority over Indian
Country. Therefore, Executive Order
13175 does not apply to this final rule.
sroberts on DSKD5P82C1PROD with RULES
7. Executive Order 13045: Protection of
Children From Environmental Health
and Safety Risks
EPA interprets Executive Order 13045
(62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997) as
applying only to those regulatory
actions that concern health or safety
risks, such that the analysis required
under section 5–501 of the Executive
Order has the potential to influence the
regulation. This action is not subject to
Executive Order 13045 because it
approves a State program.
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:21 Jul 27, 2010
Jkt 220001
8. Executive Order 13211: Actions That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use
This final rule is not subject to
Executive Order 13211, ‘‘Actions
Concerning Regulations that
Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use’’ (66 FR 28355, May
22, 2001) because it is not a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ as defined under
Executive Order 12866.
9. National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act
Section 12(d) of the National
Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act of 1995 (‘‘NTTAA’’), Public Law
104–113, section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272),
directs EPA to use voluntary consensus
standards in its regulatory activities
unless to do so would be inconsistent
with applicable law or otherwise
impractical. Voluntary consensus
standards are technical standards (e.g.,
materials specifications, test methods,
sampling procedures, and business
practices) that are developed or adopted
by voluntary consensus bodies. The
NTTAA directs EPA to provide
Congress, through OMB, explanations
when the Agency decides not to use
available and applicable voluntary
consensus standards. This final
rulemaking does not involve technical
standards. Therefore, EPA is not
considering the use of any voluntary
consensus standards.
10. Executive Order 12898: Federal
Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and Low
Income Populations
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629,
February 16, 1994) establishes Federal
executive policy on environmental
justice. Its main provision directs
Federal agencies, to the greatest extent
practicable and permitted by law, to
make environmental justice part of their
mission by identifying and addressing,
as appropriate, disproportionately high
and adverse human health or
environmental effects of their programs,
policies, and activities on minority
populations and low-income
populations in the United States. EPA
has determined that this final rule will
not have disproportionately high and
adverse human health or environmental
effects on minority or low-income
populations. This final rule does not
affect the level of protection provided to
human health or the environment
because this rule authorizes pre-existing
State rules which are equivalent to, and
no less stringent than existing Federal
requirements.

Washington: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste
Management Program Revisions
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Washington has applied to EPA for final authorization of
certain changes to its hazardous waste management program under the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended, (RCRA). On June 18,
2010, EPA published a proposed rule to authorize the changes and opened
a public comment period under Docket ID No. EPA-R10-RCRA-2010-0251. The
comment period closed on July 19, 2010. EPA has decided that the
revisions to the Washington hazardous waste management program satisfy
all of the requirements necessary to qualify for final authorization
and EPA is authorizing these revisions to Washington's authorized
hazardous waste management program in this Final rule.
DATES: Effective Date: Final authorization for the revisions to the
hazardous waste management program in Washington shall be effective at
1 p.m. EST on July 28, 2010.
ADDRESSES: EPA established a docket for this action under Docket ID No.
EPA-R10-RCRA-2010-0251. All documents in the docket are available
electronically on the Web site https://www.regulations.gov. A hard copy
of the authorization revision application is also available for
viewing, during normal business hours at the U.S. Environmental

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Why are revisions to State programs necessary?
States which have received final authorization from EPA under RCRA
section 3006(b), 42 U.S.C. 6926(b), must maintain a hazardous waste
management program that is equivalent to, consistent with, and no less
stringent than the Federal program. As the Federal program changes,
States must change their programs and ask EPA to authorize the changes.
Changes to State programs may be necessary when Federal or State
statutory or regulatory authority is modified or when certain other
changes occur. Most commonly, States must change their programs because
of changes to EPA's regulations in Title 40 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) parts 124, 260 through 266, 268, 270, 273, and 279.
B. What decisions have we made in this rule?
EPA has made a final determination that Washington's application to
revise its authorized program meets all of the statutory and regulatory
requirements established by RCRA. Therefore, we are granting Washington
final authorization to operate its hazardous waste management program
for the changes described in its revised program application.
Washington will have responsibility for permitting treatment, storage,
and disposal facilities (TSDFs) within its borders, except in Indian
country (18 U.S.C. 1151), and for carrying out the aspects of the RCRA
program described in its revised program application, subject to the
limitations of the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984 (HSWA).
New Federal requirements and prohibitions imposed by Federal
regulations that EPA promulgates under the authority of HSWA, which are
more stringent than existing requirements, take effect in authorized
States before the State is authorized for these requirements. Thus, EPA
will implement those requirements and prohibitions in Washington,
including issuing permits, until the State is granted authorization to
do so.
C. What is the effect of this authorization decision?
The effect of this action is that a facility in Washington subject
to RCRA will have to comply with the authorized State requirements
instead of the corresponding Federal requirements in order to comply
with RCRA. Additionally, such persons will have to comply with any
applicable Federal requirements, such as, HSWA regulations issued by
EPA for which the State has not received authorization, and RCRA
requirements that are not supplanted by authorized State-issued
requirements. Washington has enforcement responsibilities under its
State hazardous waste management program for violations of its
currently authorized program and will have enforcement responsibilities
for the revisions which are the subject of this final rule. EPA
continues to have independent enforcement authority under RCRA sections
3007, 3008, 3013, and 7003, which include,, among others, authority to:
Conduct inspections; require monitoring, tests, analyses,
or reports;
Enforce RCRA requirements; suspend, terminate, modify or
revoke permits; and
Take enforcement actions regardless of whether the State
has taken its own actions.
This action to approve these revisions would not impose additional
requirements on the regulated community because the regulations for
which Washington will be authorized are already effective under State
law and are not changed by the act of authorization.
D. What were the comments on EPA's proposed rule?
On June 18, 2010 (75 FR 34674), EPA published a proposed rule to
grant authorization of changes to Washington's hazardous waste
management program subject to public comment. The public comment period
opened on June 18, 2010 and ended on July 19, 2010. The Agency did not
receive any comments on the proposed rule.
E. What has Washington previously been authorized for?
Washington initially received final authorization on January 30,
1986, effective January 31, 1986 (51 FR 3782), to implement the State's
dangerous
[[Page 44145]]
waste management program. EPA granted authorization for changes to
Washington's program on September 22, 1987, effective on November 23,
1987 (52 FR 35556); August 17, 1990, effective October 16, 1990 (55 FR
33695); November 4, 1994, effective November 4, 1994 (59 FR 55322);
February 29, 1996, effective April 29, 1996 (61 FR 7736); September 22,
1998, effective October 22, 1998 (63 FR 50531); October 12, 1999,
effective January 11, 2000 (64 FR 55142); April 11, 2002, effective
April 11, 2002 (67 FR 17636); April 14, 2006, effective June 13, 2006
(71 FR 19442) and on October 30, 2006 effective December 29, 2006 (71
FR 63253).
F. What changes are we authorizing with this action?
On May 18, 2010, Washington submitted a hazardous waste management
program revision application seeking authorization of its changes in
accordance with 40 CFR 271.21. On May 28, 2010 we determined that
Washington's program revision application was complete. EPA has
determined that Washington's hazardous waste management program
revisions, as described in the State's authorization revision
application dated May 18, 2010 satisfy the requirements necessary to
qualify for final authorization. The following program changes as
identified in Table 1 and Table 2 below will be authorized with this
action. The State is authorized for those federal rules as published in
40 CFR parts 260 through 265, 268, 270, and 279 that the State
incorporated by reference as of July 1, 2007, unless otherwise noted;
and all of the referenced analogous State authorities were legally
adopted and effective State rules as of July 31, 2009.
