SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    On March 22, 2004, the EPA issued a final rule amending the 
Municipal Solid Waste Landfill (MSWLF) criteria in the Code of Federal 
Regulations (CFR) at 40 CFR part 258 to allow for Research, Development 
and Demonstration (RD&D) permits (69 FR 13242). That rule allows for 
variances from specified criteria for a limited period of time, to be 
implemented through state-issued RD&D permits. RD&D permits are 
available only in states with approved MSWLF permit programs that have 
been modified to incorporate RD&D permit authority.
    While states are not required to adopt this provision, those states 
that are interested in providing RD&D permits to owners and operators 
of MSWLFs must seek approval from the EPA before issuing such permits. 
Approval procedures for new provisions of 40 CFR part 258 are outlined 
in 40 CFR 239.12.
    On September 21, 1993, the EPA published a final rule approving 
Idaho's MSWLF permit program (65 FR 453). On September 14, 2023, the 
Idaho Department of Environmental Quality applied for approval of its 
RD&D permit provisions, codified at Idaho Code 39-7421, Idaho Solid 
Waste Facilities Act.

II. Decision

    After a thorough review of Idaho's revision package, the EPA 
determined that Idaho's RD&D permit provisions, as set out in Idaho 
Code 39-7421, Idaho Solid Waste Facilities Act, are adequate to ensure 
compliance with the Federal criteria as set out in 40 CFR 258.4.
    Authority:This action is issued under the authority of sections 
2002, 4005 and 4010(c) of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, as amended, 42 
U.S.C. 6912, 6945 and 6949(a).
