ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Parts 239 and 258

[FRL-7811-1]


Adequacy of Minnesota Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Program

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: This action proposes to approve Minnesota solid waste permit 
requirements pursuant to RCRA Section 4005 and imposes no federal 
requirements. In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal 
Register, EPA is approving Minnesota's RD&D permit requirements by an 
Immediate Final Rule. EPA did not make a proposal prior to the 
Immediate Final Rule because we believe this action is not 
controversial and do not expect comments that oppose it. We have 
explained the reasons for this approval in the preamble to the 
Immediate Final Rule. Unless we receive written comments which oppose 
this approval during the comment period, the Immediate Final Rule will 
become effective on the date it establishes, and we will not take 
further action on this proposal. If we receive comments that oppose 
this action, we will withdraw the Immediate Final Rule, and it will not 
take effect. We will then respond to public comments in a later Final 
Rule based on this proposal. You will not have another opportunity for 
comment. If you want to comment on this action, you must do so at this 
time.

DATES: Send your written comments by October 12, 2004.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be sent to Donna Twickler, Waste 
Management Branch (Mail Code: DW-8J), U.S. EPA Region 5, 77 West 
Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604. Comments may also be 
submitted electronically through the Internet to: 
[email protected]. See SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION for file formats 
for electronic submittals. Documents pertaining to this notice can be 
viewed and copied during regular business hours at the EPA Region 5
