a substitute. For many end-uses, the end
users have been able to rely on product
manufacturers’ compliance with the
SNAP listings. EPA may consider how
it should address the heavier burden
that might fall on end users, who in
some cases may be less familiar with
EPA’s regulations, in cases where
product manufacturers may be making
some products that an end user still
using an ODS may not be able to
purchase and use. EPA may also
consider whether that heavier burden
means that EPA should not apply the
regulations to those end users.
• Whether EPA should clarify when
the replacement of an ODS occurs: e.g.,
on a facility-by-facility basis, or on a
product-by-product basis. EPA may also
consider whether to propose
recordkeeping and reporting
requirements to document when a user
has transitioned to using a non-ODS.
This list of considerations is not
intended to be exhaustive, but rather
provides an indication of the areas of
initial thinking. The court also
mentioned other possible approaches to
regulation that the Agency could
consider on remand. These include
whether EPA may be able to use
‘‘retroactive disapproval’’ to revise an
earlier determination where faced with
new developments or in light of
reconsideration of the relevant facts. In
addition, the court mentioned other
authorities EPA could consider to
regulate substitutes for class I and class
II ODS, such as the Toxic Substances
Control Act (TSCA) and a number of
CAA authorities, including the National
Ambient Air Quality Standards
(NAAQS) program, the Hazardous Air
Pollutants (HAP) program, the
Prevention of Significant Deterioration
(PSD) program, and emission standards
for motor vehicles. EPA would be
interested in any thoughts stakeholders
may have on the viability and
desirability of these approaches.
EPA appreciates there is interest from
a wide variety of stakeholders in the
development of a rule to address the
court’s decision on remand. Therefore,
as an initial step, and as provided in
more detail in the section below, EPA is
providing notice of a stakeholder
meeting. The purpose of sharing the
Agency’s preliminary considerations at
this time is to provide a more specific
roadmap to facilitate and focus the
further input of our individual
stakeholders. By laying out
considerations raised by the court
remand and its near-term plans, EPA
seeks to work with stakeholders to
continue to gather and exchange
information that can assist the Agency
as it begins to develop a proposed rule

New York: Incorporation by Reference
of State Hazardous Waste Management
Program
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Direct final rule.
AGENCY:
The Solid Waste Disposal Act,
as amended, commonly referred to as
the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act (RCRA), allows the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
to authorize States to operate their
hazardous waste management programs
in lieu of the Federal program. EPA uses
the regulations entitled ‘‘Approved State
Hazardous Waste Management
Programs’’ to provide notice of the
authorization status of State programs
and to incorporate by reference those
provisions of the State regulations that
will be subject to EPA’s inspection and
enforcement. This rule does not
incorporate by reference the New York
hazardous waste statutes. The rule
codifies in the regulations the prior
approval of New York’s hazardous
waste management program and
incorporates by reference authorized
provisions of the State’s regulations.
DATES: This regulation is effective June
26, 2018, unless EPA receives adverse
written comment on this regulation by
the close of business May 29, 2018. If
EPA receives such comments, it will
publish a timely withdrawal of this
direct final rule in the Federal Register
informing the public that this rule will
not take effect. The Director of the
Federal Register approves this
incorporation by reference as of June 26,
2018 in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a)
and 1 CFR part 51.
