that peak season trips have a similar
mail mix to regular transportation for
the same quarter.’’ Id. at 8. However, the
Postal Service advises that this is not
necessarily so because ‘‘peak season
transportation is used to supplement the
regular transportation network during
peak season[.]’’ Id. Thus, the Postal
Service asserts that ‘‘sampling of peak
season trips provides visibility into the
peak season trip mail mix’’ and offers ‘‘a
more accurate estimation of the cost
distribution of peak contract costs.’’ Id.
at 8–9.
According to the Postal Service, for
FY 2022 Quarter One, there were $356
million of accrued costs relating to peak
season highway contracts, of which
$346 million were volume variable. Id.
at 9. If Proposal Six is implemented, the
Postal Service advises that ‘‘these costs
would be shifted out of the regular
transportation cost pools and into a
separate peak season cost pool.’’ Id.
Further, the Postal Service states that
‘‘[t]he costs would mainly shift to
competitive domestic products’’ as
detailed in Table 2 (in public and nonpublic versions). Id.

Florida: Final Authorization of State
Hazardous Waste Management
Program Revisions
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is proposing to authorize
changes to Florida’s hazardous waste
program under the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).
These changes were outlined in an
application to the EPA and correspond
to certain Federal rules promulgated
between July 1, 1987 through June 30,
2020. The EPA reviewed Florida’s
application and has determined that
these changes satisfy all requirements
needed to qualify for final authorization.
Therefore, in the ‘‘Rules and
Regulations’’ section of this Federal
Register, we are authorizing Florida for
these changes as a direct final action
without a prior proposed rule. If we
receive no adverse comment, we will
not take further action on this proposed
rule.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before October 6, 2022.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments,
identified by Docket ID No. EPA–R04–
RCRA–2022–0259, at https://
www.regulations.gov. Follow the online
instructions for submitting comments.
Once submitted, comments cannot be
edited or removed from
www.regulations.gov. The EPA may
publish any comment received to its
public docket. Do not submit
electronically any information you
consider to be Confidential Business
Information (CBI) or other information
whose disclosure is restricted by statute.
Multimedia submissions (audio, video,
etc.) must be accompanied by a written
comment. The written comment is
considered the official comment and
should include discussion of all points
you wish to make. The EPA will
generally not consider comments or
comment contents located outside of the
primary submission (i.e., on the web,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
document proposes to act on Florida’s
changes to its hazardous waste
management program under the
Resource Conservation and Recovery
Act (RCRA), as amended. We have
published a direct final action
authorizing these changes in the ‘‘Rules
and Regulations’’ section of this issue of
the Federal Register because we view
this as a noncontroversial action and
anticipate no adverse comment. We
have explained our reasons for this
action in the preamble to the direct final
action.
If we receive no adverse comment, we
will not take further action on this
proposed rule. If we receive adverse
comment, we will withdraw the direct
final action and it will not take effect.
We would then address all public
comments in a subsequent final action
and base any further decision on the
authorization of the State program
changes after considering all comments
received during the comment period.
We do not intend to institute a second
comment period on this action. Any
parties interested in commenting must
do so at this time. For further

Designation of Perfluorooctanoic Acid
(PFOA) and Perfluorooctanesulfonic
Acid (PFOS) as CERCLA Hazardous
Substances
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
Under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act of
1980, as amended (‘‘CERCLA’’ or
‘‘Superfund’’), the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA or the Agency)
is proposing to designate
perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and
perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS),
including their salts and structural
isomers, as hazardous substances.
CERCLA authorizes the Administrator
to promulgate regulations designating as
hazardous substances such elements,
compounds, mixtures, solutions, and
substances which, when released into
the environment, may present
substantial danger to the public health
or welfare or the environment. Such a
designation would ultimately facilitate
cleanup of contaminated sites and
reduce human exposure to these
‘‘forever’’ chemicals.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before November 7, 2022. Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act, comments on
the information collection provisions
are best assured of consideration if the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) receives a copy of your
comments on or before October 6, 2022.
