[FRL-6161-1]


Hazardous Waste Management Program: Final Authorization of State 
Hazardous Waste Management Program for Oklahoma

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve Oklahoma Department of Environment 
Quality's (ODEQ) Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. Cluster V 
Hazardous Waste Program final authorization revisions. In the rules 
section of this Federal Register ( FR), the EPA is approving the 
State's request as an immediate final rule without prior proposal 
because EPA views this action as noncontroversial and anticipates no 
adverse comments. A detailed rationale for approving the State's 
request is set forth in the immediate final rule. If no adverse written 
comments are received in response to that immediate final rule, no 
further activity is contemplated in relation to this proposed rule. If 
EPA receives adverse written comments, a second FR document will be 
published before the time the immediate final rule takes effect. The 
second document may withdraw the immediate final rule or identify the 
issues raised, respond to the comments and affirm that the immediate 
final rule will take effect as scheduled. Any parties interested in 
commenting on this action should do so at this time.

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before October 22, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Written comments referring to Docket Number OK98-2 may be 
mailed to Alima Patterson, Region 6 Authorization Coordinator, Grants
