Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 246 / Wednesday, December 26, 2018 / Rules and Regulations ‘‘the facility embodies all of the aspects of sham recycling that the 1989 Lowrance Memo [RO 11426], and both the 2008 and 2015 DSW rulemakings were intended to prohibit.’’ EPA responds to this comment as follows: Issues regarding individual facilities are beyond the scope of this rulemaking. The purpose of the proposed rulemaking published at 83 FR 45061, September 5, 2018, was not to evaluate recycling activities at particular facilities or VRF variance applications. The Louisiana proposed rulemaking addresses regulations that the state adopted and EPA reviewed. EPA concluded that the state regulations, except for the court vacated provisions, are equivalent and consistent with the federal RCRA Subtitle C program, as amended through April 17, 2015. EPA reiterates that the Agency determined the Louisiana VRE standard is broader in scope than the federal regulations and, accordingly, did not propose to authorize the State of Louisiana for the VRE standard. C. Final Action Based on the comments received in response to the proposed authorization of the State of Louisiana hazardous waste program, EPA’s responses to the comments, and consideration of the administrative record, EPA is granting final authorization of the state’s program, except for the VRE and other state provisions which are broader in scope than federal rules and remain unaffected by the vacaturs ordered by the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, on July 7, 2017, as modified on March 6, 2018. EPA retains its authority under RCRA sections 3007, 3008, 3013 and 7003 which include, among others, authority to: (1) Take enforcement actions regardless of whether the state has taken its own action, (2) enforce RCRA requirements and suspend or revoke permits; and (3) perform inspections, and require monitoring, tests, analyses or reports. amozie on DSK3GDR082PROD with RULES D. What is codification and is the EPA codifying Louisiana’s hazardous waste program as authorized in this rule? Codification is the process of placing the State’s statutes and regulations that comprise the State’s authorized hazardous waste program into the CFR. We do this by referencing the authorized State rules in 40 CFR part 272. We reserve the amendment of 40 CFR part 272 subpart T for this authorization of Louisiana’s program changes until a later date. In this authorization application, the EPA is VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:56 Dec 21, 2018 Jkt 247001 not codifying the rules documented in this Federal Register notice. E. Administrative Requirements This final authorization revises Louisiana’s authorized hazardous waste management program pursuant to RCRA section 3006 and imposes no requirements other than those currently imposed by state law. For further information on how this authorization complies with applicable executive orders and statutory provisions, please see the proposed rulemaking published in the Federal Register (83 FR 45061, September 5, 2018).
