Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 89 / Tuesday, May 8, 2018 / Notices
implement permit programs to ensure
that MSWLFs and non-municipal, nonhazardous waste disposal units that
receive household hazardous waste or
CESQG hazardous waste are in
compliance with the revised criteria for
the design and operation of nonmunicipal, non-hazardous waste
disposal units under 40 CFR part 257,
subpart B and MSWLFs under 40 CFR
part 258. (40 CFR part 257, subpart B
and 40 CFR part 258 are henceforth
referred to as the ‘‘revised federal
criteria’’.) Section 4005(c) of RCRA
further mandates the EPA Administrator
to determine the adequacy of state
permit programs to ensure owner and/
or operator compliance with the revised
federal criteria. A state program that is
deemed adequate to ensure compliance
may afford flexibility to owners or
operators in the approaches they use to
meet federal requirements, significantly
reducing the burden associated with
compliance.
In response to the statutory
requirement in § 4005(c), EPA
developed 40 CFR part 239, commonly
referred to as the State Implementation
Rule (SIR). The SIR describes the state
application and EPA review procedures
and defines the elements of an adequate
state permit program.
The collection of information from the
state during the permit program
adequacy determination process allows
EPA to evaluate whether a program for
which approval is requested is
appropriate in structure and authority to
ensure owner or operator compliance
with the revised federal criteria. The SIR
does not require the use of a particular
application form. Section 239.3 of the
SIR, however, requires that all state
applications contain the following five
components:
(1) A transmittal letter requesting
permit program approval.
(2) A narrative description of the state
permit program, including a
demonstration that the state’s standards
for non-municipal, non-hazardous waste
disposal units that receive CESQG
hazardous waste are technically
comparable to the Part 257, Subpart B
criteria and/or that its MSWLF
standards are technically comparable to
the Part 258 criteria.
(3) A legal certification demonstrating
that the state has the authority to carry
out the program.
(4) Copies of state laws, regulations,
and guidance that the state believes
demonstrate program adequacy.
(5) Copies of relevant state-tribal
agreements if the state has negotiated
with a tribe for the implementation of a
permit program for non-municipal, nonhazardous waste disposal units that

receive CESQG hazardous waste and/or
MSWLFs on tribal lands.
The EPA Administrator has delegated
the authority to make determinations of
adequacy, as contained in the statute, to
the EPA Regional Administrator. The
appropriate EPA Regional Office,
therefore, will use the information
provided by each state to determine
whether the state’s permit program
satisfies the statutory test reflected in
the requirements of 40 CFR part 239. In
all cases, the information will be
analyzed to determine the adequacy of
the state’s permit program for ensuring
compliance with the federal revised
criteria.
