40 CFR Part 271

[FRL-7228-6]


Nevada: 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 the Nevada Department of 
Environmental Protection. 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, the immediate 
final rule will become effective and no further activity will occur in 
relation to this proposal. If EPA receives adverse written comments, 
EPA will withdraw the immediate final rule before its effective date by 
publishing a notice of withdrawal in the Federal Register. EPA will 
then respond to public comments in a later final rule based on this 
proposal. EPA may not provide further opportunity for comment. Any 
parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this 
time.

DATES: Written comments on this proposed rule must be received on or 
before July 12, 2002.
