[FRL-5025-4]
Oregon; Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management
Program Revisions
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Immediate final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Oregon has applied for final authorization of revisions to its
hazardous waste program under the Resource Conservation and Recovery
Act (RCRA). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has reviewed
Oregon's application and has made a decision, subject to public review
and comment, that Oregon's hazardous waste program revision satisfies
all of the requirements necessary to qualify for final authorization.
Thus, EPA intends to approve Oregon's hazardous waste program
revisions. Oregon's application for program revision is available for
public review and comment.
DATES: Final authorization for Oregon shall be effective on October 4,
1994 unless EPA publishes a prior Federal Register action withdrawing
this immediate final rule. All comments on Oregon's program revision
application must be received by the close of business on September 14,
1994.
ADDRESSES: Copies of Oregon's program revision application are
available during the business hours of 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the
following addresses for inspection and copying: Oregon Department of
Environmental Quality, Waste Management and Clean-up Division, Eighth
Floor, 811 S.W. Sixth Avenue, Portland, Oregon 97204 (503) 229-6534;
U.S. EPA Region 10, Library, 1200 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, Washington
98101 (206) 553-1289. Written comments should be sent to Renee Dagseth,
HW-107, EPA, 1200 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, Washington, 98101, (206) 553-
1889.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Renee Dagseth at the above address and
phone number.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
States with final authorization under Section 3006(b) of the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (``RCRA or ``the Act''), 42
U.S.C. 6926(b), have a continuing obligation to maintain a hazardous
waste program that is equivalent to, consistent with, and no less
stringent than the Federal hazardous waste program. In addition, as an
interim measure, the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984
(Public Law 98-616, November 8, 1984, hereinafter ``HSWA'') allows
States to revise their programs to become substantially equivalent
instead of equivalent to RCRA requirements promulgated under HSWA
authority. States exercising the latter option receive ``interim
authorization'' for the HSWA requirements under Section 3006(g) of
RCRA, 42 U.S.C. 6926(g), and later apply for final authorization for
the HSWA requirements.
Revisions to State hazardous waste programs are necessary when
Federal or State statutory or regulatory authority is modified or when
certain other changes occur. Most commonly, State program revisions are
necessitated by changes to EPA's regulations in 40 CFR Parts 260-266,
268, 124 and 270.
B. Oregon
Oregon initially received final authorization for its base RCRA
program on January 30, 1986. Oregon received authorization for
revisions to its program on May 29, 1990. On July 1, 1994, Oregon
submitted a program revision application for additional program
approvals. Today, Oregon is seeking approval of its program revision in
accordance with 40 CFR 271.21(b)(4).
EPA has reviewed Oregon's application, and has made an immediate
final decision that Oregon's hazardous waste program revision satisfies
all of the requirements necessary to qualify for final authorization.
Consequently, EPA intends to grant Oregon final authorization for the
additional program modifications. The public may submit written
comments on EPA's immediate final decision up until September 14, 1994.
Copies of Oregon's application for program revision are available for
inspection and copying at the locations indicated in the ``Addresses''
section of this notice.
Approval of Oregon's program revision shall become effective in
sixty (60) days unless adverse comments pertaining to the State's
program revisions are received during the public comment period. If an
adverse comment is received, EPA will publish either (1) a withdrawal
of the immediate final decision or (2) a notice containing a response
to comments which either affirms that the immediate final decision
takes effect or reverses the decision.
Oregon's revision application includes the majority of HSWA and
non-HSWA federal provisions promulgated before July 1, 1993. The more
substantive changes included in this revision application are: the
Mining Waste Rules, the Land Disposal Restriction Rules, the Used Oil
Rule, and the Permit Modification Rule. Oregon is applying for
authorization for the following Federal hazardous waste regulations:

\1\The rules referenced are in the Oregon Administrative Rules. State authorities: ORS 183.355, as amended in
1991; ORS 466.020, as amended in 1989; ORS 466.086, enacted in 1987, and OAR 166-510-010, effective 1993.
Some portions of Oregon's revised program are broader in scope than
the federal program, and thus are not federally enforceable. The
broader in scope rules are OAR Chapter 340: 100-011, 101-033, 102-044,
102-070, 104-075, 105-013, 105-014, 105-040, 105-041, 105-051, 111-020,
111-030, and 111-037. Broader information requirements characterize
100-011, 102-070, 105-013, and 105-014 (in some cases the last two
rules may be more stringent depending on the type of information
required). State-only siting standards make 105-040, 105-041, and 120-
001 broader. Permit conditions are modified under 105-051. State-only
hazardous wastes are added by 101-033. Small quantity generators must
comply with large quantity generator requirements under 102-044. Non-
RCRA permitted recycling facilities are required to comply to provide
biennial report information by 104-075 (in some cases this rule may be
more stringent depending on the information required). Oregon's used
oil rule adds regulated and prohibited activities to the Federal rule
in 111-020 and 111-030. Used oil generators are allowed to transport
oil in leased vehicles under 111-037.
EPA will administer the enforcement, modification, revocation,
reissuance, and termination of portions of joint State/EPA permits for
which the State is not yet authorized until such time that the State is
granted authorization. Oregon is not seeking authorization to operate
on Indian lands.
C. Decision
I conclude that Oregon's application for program revision meets all
of the statutory and regulatory requirements established by RCRA.
Accordingly, Oregon is granted final authorization to operate its
hazardous waste program as revised.
Oregon now has responsibility for permitting treatment, storage,
and disposal facilities within its borders and carrying out the aspects
of the RCRA program described in its revised program application,
subject to the limitations of HSWA. Oregon also has primary enforcement
responsibilities, although EPA retains the right to conduct inspections
under Section 3007 of RCRA and to take enforcement actions under
Sections 3008, 3013, and 7003 of RCRA.
Compliance with Executive Order 12866
The Office of Management and Budget has exempted this rule from the
requirements of Section 6 of Executive Order 12866.
Certification under the Regulatory Flexibility Act
Pursuant to the provisions of 4 U.S.C. 605(b), I hereby certify
that this authorization will not have a significant economic impact on
a substantial number of small entities. This authorization effectively
suspends the applicability of certain Federal regulations in favor of
Oregon's program, thereby eliminating duplicative requirements for
handlers of hazardous waste in the State. It does not impose any new
burdens on small entities. This rule, therefore, does not require a
regulatory flexibility analysis.
