SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Extension of Comment Period 

On October 19, 2010 (75 FR 64412), 

MSHA published a proposed rule, 

Lowering Miners’ Exposure to 

Respirable Coal Mine Dust, Including 

Continuous Personal Dust Monitors. In 

response to requests from interested 

parties, MSHA is extending the 

comment period from February 28, 

2011, to May 2, 2011. In support of their 

requests, commenters noted the 

comprehensive, extensive nature of the 

proposal. All comments and supporting 

documentation must be received or 

postmarked by May 2, 2011. 

Request for Comments 

MSHA solicits comments from the 

mining community on all aspects of the 

proposed rule. 

MSHA is interested in commenters’ 

views on what actions should be taken 

by MSHA and the mine operator when 

a single shift respirable dust sample 

meets or exceeds the Excessive 

Concentration Value (ECV). In this 

situation, if operators use a CPDM, what 

alternative actions to those contained in 

the proposed rule would you suggest 

that MSHA and the operator take? 

MSHA is particularly interested in 

alternatives to those in the proposal and 

how such alternatives would be 

protective of miners. 

Clarification 

A commenter at the first public 

hearing suggested that the timeframe for 

miners’ review of the Continuous 

Personal Dust Monitor (CPDM) 

Performance Plan be expanded. For 

clarification, MSHA, in developing the 

proposed rule, relied on the timeframe 

and process in the existing requirements 

for mine ventilation plans. In the 

proposal, MSHA did not intend to 

change the existing timeframe and 

process and stated that the proposed 

rule is consistent with ventilation plan 

requirements and would allow miners’ 

representatives the opportunity to 

meaningfully participate in the process. 

Dated: January 10, 2011. 

Joseph A. Main, 

Assistant Secretary of Labor for Mine Safety 

and Health.

Minnesota: Final Authorization of State 

Hazardous Waste Management 

Program Revision 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: Minnesota has applied to EPA 

for final authorization of the changes to 

its hazardous waste program under the 

Resource Conservation and Recovery 

Act (RCRA). EPA has reviewed

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Why are revisions to State programs 

necessary? 

States which have received final 

authorization from EPA under RCRA 

section 3006(b), 42 U.S.C. 6926(b), must 

maintain a hazardous waste program 

that is equivalent to, consistent with, 

and no less stringent than the Federal 

program. As the Federal program 

changes, States must change their 

programs and request EPA to authorize 

the changes. Changes to State programs 

may be necessary when Federal or State 

statutory or regulatory authority is 

modified or when certain other changes 

occur. Most commonly, States must 

change their programs because of 

changes to EPA’s regulations in 40 Code 

of Federal Regulations (CFR) parts 124, 

260 through 266, 268, 270, 273 and 279. 

B. What decisions have we made in this 

rule? 

We conclude that Minnesota’s 

application to revise its authorized 

program meets all of the statutory and 

regulatory requirements established by 

RCRA. Therefore, we propose to grant 

Minnesota final authorization to operate 

its hazardous waste program with the 

changes described in the authorization 

application. Minnesota has 

responsibility for permitting treatment, 

storage, and disposal facilities (TSDFs) 

within its borders (except in Indian 

Country) and for carrying out the 

aspects of the RCRA program described 

in its revised program application, 

subject to the limitations of the 

Hazardous and Solid Waste 

Amendments of 1984 (HSWA). New 

Federal requirements and prohibitions 

imposed by Federal regulations that 

EPA promulgates under the authority of 

HSWA take effect in authorized States 

before they are authorized for the 

requirements. Thus, EPA will 

implement those requirements and 

prohibitions in Minnesota, including 

issuing permits, until the State is 

granted authorization to do so. 

C. What is the effect of this 

authorization decision? 

The effect of this decision, once 

finalized, is that a facility in Minnesota 

subject to RCRA would have to comply 

with the authorized State requirements 

instead of the equivalent Federal 

requirements in order to comply with 

RCRA. Minnesota has enforcement 

responsibilities under its State 

hazardous waste program for RCRA 

violations, but EPA retains its authority 

under RCRA sections 3007, 3008, 3013, 

and 7003, which include, among others, 

authority to: 

1. Do inspections, and require 

monitoring, tests, analyses or reports; 

and 

1. Enforce RCRA requirements and 

suspend or revoke permits. 

This action will not impose additional 

requirements on the regulated 

community because the regulations for 

which Minnesota is being authorized 

are already effective, and will not be 

changed by EPA’s final action. 

D. What happens if EPA receives 

adverse comments on this action? 

If EPA receives adverse comments on 

this authorization, we will address all 

public comments in a later Federal 

Register. You may not have another 

opportunity to comment. If you want to 

comment on this authorization, you 

must do so at this time. 

E. What has Minnesota previously been 

authorized for? 

Minnesota initially received Final 

(base) authorization on January 28, 

1985, effective February 11, 1985 (50 FR 

3756) to implement the RCRA 

hazardous waste management program. 

We granted authorization for changes to 

Minnesota’s program on July 20, 1987, 

effective September 18, 1987 (52 FR 

27199); on April 24, 1989, effective June 

23, 1989 (54 FR 16361) amended June 

28, 1989 (54 FR 27170); on June 15, 

1990, effective August 14, 1990 (55 FR 

24232); on June 24, 1991, effective 

August 23, 1991 (56 FR 28709); on 

March 19, 1992, effective May 18, 1992 

(57 FR 9501); on March 17, 1993, 

effective May 17, 1993 (58 FR 14321); 

on January 20, 1994, effective March 21, 

1994 (59 FR 2998); and on May 25, 

2000, effective August 23, 2000 (65 FR 

33774). Minnesota also received 

authorization for the U.S. Filter 

Recovery Services Project XL on May 

22, 2001, effective May 22, 2001 (66 FR 

28085), and for the Joint Powers 

Agreement with Hennepin County on 

October 23, 2008 (73 FR 63074), 

effective October 23, 2008. 

F. What changes are we proposing with 

today’s action? 

On June 2, 2010, Minnesota submitted 

a final complete program revision 

application, seeking authorization of 

their changes in accordance with 40 

CFR 271.21. We are now proposing to 

authorize, subject to receipt of written 

comments that oppose this action, 

Minnesota’s hazardous waste program 

revision. We propose to grant Minnesota 

final authorization for the following 

program changes:

G. Which revised State rules are 

different from the Federal rules? 

Minnesota has excluded the nondelegable Federal requirements at 40 

CFR 268.5, 268.6, 268.42(b), 268.44, and 

270.3. EPA will continue to implement 

those requirements. In this action, 

Minnesota has chosen to remain more 

stringent in the Hazardous Remediation 

Waste Management Requirements, 

(Checklist 175 above) by choosing not to 

adopt 40 CFR 270.79 through 270.230 

which allow for Remedial Action Plans 

(RAP). The RAP is considered to be less 

stringent. Minnesota is more stringent in 

checklist 108, as it does not recognize 

the list of excluded processes, nor does 

it have provision to waive the double 

liner requirement in 40 CFR 265.301(d). 

In rule revision (Checklist) 118, 

Minnesota does not allow any liquids in 

landfills even as provided for in 40 CFR 

264.314. In rule revision (Checklist) 142, 

Minnesota does not contain a provision 

to add a Universal Waste under 40 CFR 

273.80 or 260.23.

2624 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 10 / Friday, January 14, 2011 / Proposed Rules 

H. Who handles permits after the 

authorization takes effect? 

Minnesota will issue permits for all 

the provisions for which it is authorized 

and will administer the permits it 

issues. EPA will continue to administer 

any RCRA hazardous waste permits or 

portions of permits which we issued 

prior to the effective date of this 

authorization until they expire or are 

terminated. We will not issue any more 

new permits or new portions of permits 

for the provisions listed in the Table 

above after the effective date of this 

authorization. EPA will continue to 

implement and issue permits for HSWA 

requirements for which Minnesota is 

not yet authorized. 

I. How does today’s action affect Indian 

Country (18 U.S.C. 1151) in Minnesota? 

Minnesota is not authorized to carry 

out its hazardous waste program in 

‘‘Indian Country,’’ as defined in 18 

U.S.C. 1151. Indian Country includes: 

1. All lands within the exterior 

boundaries of Indian Reservations 

within or abutting the State of 

Minnesota, including: 

a. Bois Forte Indian Reservation 

b. Fond Du Lac Indian Reservation 

c. Grand Portage Indian Reservation 

d. Leech Lake Indian Reservation 

e. Lower Sioux Indian Reservation 

f. Mille Lacs Indian Reservation 

g. Prairie Island Indian Reservation 

h. Red Lake Indian Reservation 

i. Shakopee Mdewankanton Indian 

Reservation 

j. Upper Sioux Indian Reservation 

k. White Earth Indian Reservation 

2. Any land held in trust by the U.S. 

for an Indian tribe; and 

3. Any other land, whether on or off 

an Indian reservation that qualifies as 

Indian Country. 

Therefore, EPA retains the authority to 

implement and administer the RCRA 

program in Indian Country. 

J. What is codification and is EPA 

codifying Minnesota’s hazardous waste 

program as authorized in this rule? 

Codification is the process of placing 

the State’s statutes and regulations that 

comprise the State’s authorized 

hazardous waste program into the Code 

of Federal Regulations. We do this by 

referencing the authorized State rules in 

40 CFR part 272. Minnesota’s rules, up 

to and including those revised June 7, 

1991, as corrected August 19, 1991, 

have previously been codified through 

incorporation by reference effective 

February 4, 1992 (57 FR 4162) . 

K. Statutory and Executive Order 

Reviews 

This proposed rule only authorizes 

hazardous waste requirements pursuant 

to RCRA 3006 and imposes no 

requirements other than those imposed 

by State law (see SUPPLEMENTARY

INFORMATION, Section A. Why are 

Revisions to State Programs Necessary?). 

Therefore this rule complies with 

applicable executive orders and 

statutory provisions as follows: 

1. Executive Order 18266: Regulatory 

Planning Review 

The Office of Management and Budget 

has exempted this rule from its review 

under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 

51735, October 4, 1993). 

2. Paperwork Reduction Act 

This rule does not impose an 

information collection burden under the 

provisions of the Paperwork Reduction 

Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). 

3. Regulatory Flexibility Act 

This rule authorizes State 

requirements for the purpose of RCRA 

3006 and imposes no additional 

requirements beyond those required by 

State law. Accordingly, I certify that this 

rule will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 

et seq.). 

4. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

Because this rule approves preexisting requirements under state law 

and does not impose any additional 

enforceable duty beyond that required 

by state law, it does not contain any 

unfunded mandate or significantly or 

uniquely affect small governments, as 

described in the Unfunded Mandates 

Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–4). 

5. Executive Order 13132: Federalism 

Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, 

August 10, 1999) does not apply to this 

rule because it will not have federalism 

implications (i.e., substantial direct 

effects on the States, on the relationship 

between the national government and 

the States, or on the distribution of 

power and responsibilities among the 

various levels of government). 

6. Executive Order 13175: Consultation 

and Coordination With Indian Tribal 

Governments 

Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, 

November 9, 2000) does not apply to 

this rule because it will not have tribal 

implications (i.e., substantial direct 

effects on one or more Indian tribes, or 

on the relationship between the Federal 

Government and Indian tribes, or on the 

distribution of power and 

responsibilities between the Federal 

Government and Indian tribes.) 

7. Executive Order 13045: Protection of 

Children From Environmental Health 

and Safety Risks 

This rule is not subject to Executive 

Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 

1997), because it is not economically 

significant as defined in Executive 

Order 12866 and because the EPA does 

not have reason to believe the 

environmental health or safety risks 

addressed by this action present a 

disproportionate risk to children. 

8. Executive Order 13211: Actions That 

Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 

Distribution, or Use 

This rule is not subject to Executive 

Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 

2001), because it is not a significant 

regulatory action as defined in 

Executive Order 12866. 

9. National Technology Transfer 

Advancement Act 

EPA approves State programs as long 

as they meet criteria required by RCRA, 

so it would be inconsistent with 

applicable law for EPA, in its review of 

a State program, to require the use of 

any particular voluntary consensus 

standard in place of another standard 

that meets requirements of RCRA. Thus, 

the requirements of section 12(d) of the 

National Technology Transfer and 

Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 

272 note) do not apply to this rule. 

10. Executive Order 12988 

As required by section 3 of Executive 

Order 12988 (61 FR 4729, February 7, 

1996), in issuing this rule, EPA has 

taken the necessary steps to eliminate 

drafting errors and ambiguity, minimize 

potential litigation, and provide a clear 

legal standard for affected conduct. 

11. Executive Order 12630: Evaluation 

of Risk and Avoidance of Unanticipated

12. Executive Order 12898: Federal 

Actions To Address Environmental 

Justice in Minority Populations and Low 

Income Populations 

Because this rule proposes 

authorization of pre-existing State rules 

and imposes no additional requirements 

beyond those imposed by State law and 

there are no anticipated significant 

adverse human health or environmental 

effects, the rule is not subject to 

Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, 

February 16, 1994). 

13. Congressional Review Act 

EPA will submit a report containing 

this rule and other information required 

by the Congressional Review Act (5 

U.S.C. 801 et seq.) to the U.S. Senate, 

the U.S. House of Representatives, and 

the Comptroller General of the United 

States prior to publication in the 

Federal Register. A major rule cannot 

take effect until 60 days after it is 

published in the Federal Register. This 

action is not a ‘‘major rule’’ as defined 

by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
