Commonwealth of Massachusetts for revisions to its hazardous waste
program under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA)
published in the Federal Register of February 24, 1999 (64 FR 9110).
The notice proposes to approve Massachusetts for final authorization
for provisions of the Universal Waste Rule (UWR) and the Toxicity

anticipate granting any further extensions of this comment period.
