Approval and Promulgation of Plans for Designated Facilities; New Jersey; Delegation of Authority
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving a request from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) for delegation of authority to implement and enforce the following three Federal plans: Municipal Solid Waste Landfills (MSW Landfills); Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerators (HMIWI); and Small Municipal Waste Combustion Units (Small MWC). On November 8, 1999, August 15, 2000 and January 31, 2003 respectively, EPA promulgated the Federal plans for MSW Landfills, HMIWI and Small MWCs to fulfill the requirements of sections 111(d)/129 of the Clean Air Act (CAA). The Federal plans impose emission limits and control requirements for existing affected facilities located in areas not covered by an approved and currently effective State plan. On May 15, 2006, NJDEP signed Memorandums of Agreement (MOAs) which act as the mechanism for the transfer of EPA authority to NJDEP. The intended effect is to approve MOAs that define the policies, responsibilities, and procedures by which the Federal plans for MSW Landfills, HMIWI and Small MWCs will be administered on behalf of EPA by NJDEP. EPA proposed approval of NJDEP's delegation request on August 31, 2006.

NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION
The Department of Defense (DoD), Department of Energy (DOE), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) are announcing for public comment the availability of a draft document, entitled the ``Multi-Agency Radiation Survey and Assessment of Materials and Equipment Manual'' (MARSAME). MARSAME provides information on planning, conducting, evaluating, and documenting radiological surveys for demonstrating compliance with measurable action levels. MARSAME, when finalized, will be a multi- agency consensus document. The agencies are seeking public comment in order to receive feedback from the widest range of interested parties and to ensure that all information relevant to developing the document is received. The agencies will review public comments received on the draft MARSAME as well as comments from a concurrent, independent, scientific peer review. Suggested changes will be incorporated, where appropriate, in response to those comments.
