(ii) The state must not use a low flow
value below which numeric noncarcinogen and carcinogen human
health criteria can be exceeded that is
less stringent than the harmonic mean
flow for waters suitable for the
establishment of low flow return

Harmonic mean flow is a long-term
mean flow value calculated by dividing
the number of daily flows analyzed by
the sum of the reciprocals of those daily
flows.
(iii) If the state does not have such a
low flow value for numeric criteria, then
none will apply and the criteria in
paragraph (b) of this section herein
apply at all flows.

Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
The State of Louisiana has
applied to the Environmental Protection
Agency (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 the State of Louisiana.
In the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section
of this Federal Register, EPA is
authorizing the changes by direct final
rule. EPA did not make a proposal prior
to the direct 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 direct final rule. Unless
we get written comments which oppose
this authorization during the comment
period, the direct final rule will become
effective 60 days after publication and
we will not take further action on this
proposal. If we receive comments that
oppose this action, we will withdraw
the direct final rule and it 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.
