ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 271
[EPA-R03-RCRA-2013-0571; FRL-9903-07-Region 3]
West Virginia: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste
Management Program Revisions
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: West Virginia 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 West Virginia. 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.
