Delaware: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management 
Program Revisions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to grant final authorization to the hazardous 
waste program revisions submitted by Delaware. In the final rules 
section of this Federal Register, EPA is authorizing the State's 
program revisions as an immediate final rule without prior proposal 
because EPA views this action as noncontroversial and anticipates no 
adverse comments. A detailed rationale for the authorization is set 
forth in the immediate final rule. If no adverse written comments are 
received on this action, the immediate final rule will become effective 
and no further activity will occur in relation to this proposal. If an 
adverse comment is received EPA will publish either (1) a withdrawal of 
the immediate final decision or (2) a document containing a response to 
comments which either affirms that the immediate final decision takes 
effect or reverses the decision. Any parties interested in commenting 
on this action should do so at this time.

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before September 17, 
1998.
