40 CFR Part 272

[FRL-9293-8]


Wisconsin: Incorporation by Reference of Approved State Hazardous 
Waste Management Program

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to codify in the regulations entitled ``Approved 
State Hazardous Waste Management Programs,'' Wisconsin's authorized 
hazardous waste program. EPA will incorporate by reference into the 
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) those provisions of the State 
regulations that are authorized and that the EPA will enforce under the 
Solid Waste Disposal Act, commonly referred to as the Resource 
Conversation and Recovery Act (RCRA).

DATES: Send written comments by June 8, 2011.

ADDRESSES: Send written comments to Jean Gromnicki, U.S. EPA, Region 5, 
77 West Jackson Boulevard, Mail Code LR-8J, Chicago, Illinois 60604. 
You may also submit comments electronically or through hand delivery/
courier; please follow the detailed instructions in the ADDRESSES 
section of the immediate final rule which is located in the Rules 
section of this Federal Register.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jean Gromnicki, U.S. EPA, Region 5, 77 
West Jackson Boulevard, Mail Code LR-8J, Chicago, Illinois 60604, 
[email protected], (312) 886-6162.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of 
this Federal Register, EPA is codifying and incorporating by reference 
the State's hazardous waste program as an immediate final rule. EPA did 
not make a proposal prior to the immediate final rule because we 
believe these actions are not controversial and do not expect comments 
that oppose them. We have explained the reasons for this codification 
and incorporation by reference in the preamble to the immediate final 
rule. If we do not get written comments which oppose this incorporation 
by reference 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 get comments that oppose these 
actions, 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 may not have another opportunity for 
comment. If you want to comment on this action, you must do so at this 
time. For additional information, please see the immediate final rule 
published in the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal 
Register.

    Authority: This action is issued under the authority of sections 
2002(a), 3006 and 7004(b) of the Solid Waste and Disposal Act, as 
amended, 42 U.S.C. 6912(a), 6926, 6974(b).

    Dated: March 24, 2011.
Susan Hedman,
Regional Administrator, Region 5.
