Delaware: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management 
Program Revisions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: Delaware has applied to EPA for final authorization of 
revisions to its hazardous waste program under the Resource 
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). EPA proposes to grant final 
authorization to Delaware. In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of 
this Federal Register, EPA is authorizing the revisions 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 
authorization in the preamble to the immediate final rule. Unless we 
receive written comments that oppose this authorization 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. However, if we receive comments that oppose this action, or 
portions thereof, we will withdraw the relevant portions of the 
immediate final rule, and they will not take effect. We will then 
respond to public comments in a later final rule based on this 
proposal. You may 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 November 8, 2004.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by FRL-7825-5 by one of the 
following methods:
    1. Federal eRulemaking Portal: http://www.regulations.gov. Follow 
the on-line instructions for submitting comments.

Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103-2029, Phone number: (215) 814-5254.
    Instructions: Direct your comments to FRL-7825-5. EPA's policy is 
that all comments received will be included in the public file without 
change, including any personal information provided, unless the comment 
includes information claimed to be Confidential Business Information 
(CBI) or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. 
Do not submit information that you consider to be CBI or otherwise 
protected through http://www.regulations.gov or e-mail. The federal 
http://www.regulations.gov Web site is an ``anonymous access'' system, 
which means EPA will not know your identity or contact information 
unless you provide it in the body of your comment. If you send an e-
mail comment directly to EPA without going through http://www.regulations.gov, your e-mail address will be automatically captured 
and included as part of the comment that is placed in the public file 
and made available on the Internet. If you submit an electronic 
comment, EPA recommends that you include your name and other contact 
information in the body of your comment and with any disk or CD-ROM you 
submit. If EPA cannot read your comment due to technical difficulties 
and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA may not be able to 
consider your comment. Electronic files should avoid the use of special 
characters, any form of encryption, and be free of any defects or 
viruses.
