40 CFR Part 271
[FRL-6427-1]
North Carolina: 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 for the
hazardous waste program revisions submitted by North Carolina. In the
``Rules and Regulations'' 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. The Agency has
explained the reasons for this authorization in the preamble to the
immediate final rule. If EPA does not receive adverse written comments,
the immediate final rule will become effective and the Agency will not
take further action on this proposal. If EPA receives adverse written
comments, EPA will withdraw the immediate final rule and it will not
take effect. EPA will then address 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 must
do so at this time.
DATES: Written comments must be received on or before September 24,
1999.
ADDRESSES: Mail written comments to Narindar Kumar, Chief, RCRA
Programs Branch, Waste Management Division, U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, The Sam Nunn Atlanta Federal Center, 61 Forsyth
