Connecticut: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste 
Management Program Revisions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: Today's action finalizes EPA's decision to grant authorization 
to the State of Connecticut for certain revisions to its hazardous 
waste program under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). 
The revisions consist of State regulations which update the State's 
program to meet Federal requirements through January 1, 2001. The 
revisions cover the EPA RCRA Clusters Non-HSWA VI, HSWA I, HSWA II, and 
RCRA I through XI, and include such important rules as Corrective 
Action, land disposal restrictions, toxicity characteristic amendments, 
burning hazardous waste in boilers and industrial furnaces, recycled 
used oil, universal wastes, and the expanded RCRA public participation 
rule. EPA is granting final authorization to Connecticut for these 
revisions to its hazardous waste program. EPA has determined that these 
State regulations meet the requirements for authorization as set forth 
in the RCRA statute and EPA's regulations.

DATES: The approval of Connecticut's program revisions are effective 
without further notice as of September 28, 2004.

ADDRESSES: Dockets which relate to today's final rule that contain 
copies of the State of Connecticut's revision application and the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Why Are Revisions to State Programs Necessary?

    States with final authorization under section 3006(b) of RCRA, 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. As the Federal 
hazardous waste program changes, the States must revise their programs 
and apply for authorization of the revisions. Revisions to State 
hazardous waste programs may be necessary when Federal or State 
statutory or regulatory authority is modified or when certain other 
changes occur. Most commonly, States must revise 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 Has Connecticut Previously Been Authorized for Under RCRA?

    The State of Connecticut received Final Authorization on December 
17, 1990, effective December 31, 1990 (55 FR 51707), to implement its 
base hazardous waste management program. This previously authorized 
program generally tracks Federal hazardous waste requirements through 
July 1, 1989.

C. What Were the Comments and Responses to EPA's Proposal?

    EPA proposed to authorize the revisions to the Connecticut program 
at 69 FR 40568 (July 6, 2004). EPA received written comments from two 
commenters during the public comment period on EPA's proposed rule. 
Today's action responds to those comments and publishes EPA's final 
determination granting Connecticut final authorization for its program 
revisions. EPA would like to thank the commenters for their interest in 
this action. The issues raised by the commenters are summarized and 
responded to below. For the reasons explained below, EPA was not 
persuaded by the comments to reconsider the authorization of this 
Connecticut RCRA program update.

1. Comments From Klancko & Klancko of Woodbridge, Connecticut

    This commenter submitted comments opposing EPA's proposed action. 
The commenter has concerns relating to the way the Connecticut 
Department of Environmental Protection (CTDEP) implements its hazardous 
waste program, as summarized below:
    Comment #1: The commenter opposes the State spending resources to 
create its own regulations, but, rather, suggests the money would be 
better spent by the State adopting and enforcing the existing Federal 
hazardous waste regulations. The commenter suggests that having State 
requirements that differ from Federal ones may cause confusion among 
the regulated community.
    EPA's Response: The Resource and Recovery Act (RCRA) mandates that 
in order for State hazardous waste programs to be authorized, they must 
be equivalent, consistent and no less stringent than the Federal 
program. There is nothing under this authority than prohibits a State 
from enacting laws or adopting regulations that are more stringent than 
the Federal hazardous waste program. Under State and Federal law, it is 
a State's prerogative to do so. This flexibility allows States to adapt 
programs to address specific needs or concerns in a given State which 
may result in more stringent requirements. The rules relating to this 
authorization have been subject to Connecticut's public notice and 
rulemaking procedures which gave fair notice regarding what the State 
regulations require. Raising State issues to EPA only after a State has 
adopted its rules at the State level is unfair to the State. This 
Federal authorization action is not the appropriate forum for this 
comment.
    Comment #2: Relating to CTDEP's approach to compliance, the 
commenter believes there is more emphasis on using enforcement to 
achieve compliance rather than outreach and education which would 
foster improved, longer lasting compliance,

[[Page 57843]]

particularly with small businesses. According to the commenter, this 
kind of approach promotes a polarized, disharmonious enforcement 
environment which adds to financial and operational burdens, and, thus, 
contributes to a declining manufacturing base in the State. Also, the 
commenter suggests the CTDEP is more concerned with the issuance of 
enforcement actions and levying fines than improvements in the 
environment, especially as it relates to those who are resource 
challenged, and that improvements in Connecticut's environment, 
according to data provided by the Connecticut Council on Environmental 
Quality, have been marginal at best.
    EPA Response: Pursuant to the requirements for State authorized 
programs, i.e., 40 CFR 271.15 and 40 CFR 271.16, the CTDEP has the 
necessary compliance monitoring and enforcement components for an 
authorized State hazardous waste regulatory program. Also, as described 
in CTDEP's Program Description, its hazardous waste compliance program 
includes education and outreach regarding safe waste management and new 
and existing regulations as well as pollution prevention activities. As 
agreed to in the Memorandum of Agreement between EPA and the CTDEP, 
Connecticut must ensure that compliance monitoring activities and 
priorities shall be consistent with all applicable Federal requirements 
and with the State's Program Description and will be negotiated in the 
PPA (Performance Partnership Agreement) with EPA. The EPA disagrees 
with the commenter's criticisms of the Connecticut program. In 
addition, the current rulemaking involves authorizing an update to the 
Connecticut program. Not authorizing the update would in no way address 
the commenter's concerns, but would simply mean that for purposes of 
Federal enforcement, the Connecticut program would remain out of date.
    Comment #3: In conclusion, the commenter urges EPA to reconsider 
the authorization of Connecticut's hazardous waste program at this time 
and suggests EPA meet with various stakeholders to determine a better 
approach to meet the ``global'' needs of Connecticut and EPA's mandate 
and responsibility, emphasizing that consistency with Federal 
regulation would be a major step in this direction.
    EPA Response: See ``EPA response'' to comment <greek-i>1 and 
<greek-i>2 above. Also, Connecticut has established a Commissioner's 
Advisory Subcommittee, which includes consultants, attorneys, 
environmental interest groups, and members of the regulated community, 
to provide input during the development of the proposed revisions. In 
addition, as referenced in EPA's proposed rule for the Connecticut 
authorization, EPA and the CTDEP conducted an informational meeting on 
July 21, 2004, in order to address questions the public may have had 
relating to this action.

2. Comments From Safe Food and Fertilizer of Quincy, Washington

    This organization filed a comment letter objecting to the proposed 
authorization of the updated Connecticut RCRA regulations for the 
following reasons.
    Comment #1: The commenter states that there has not been an 
adequate review of the State regulations because the ``Express RCRA 
Authorization Process'' has been used by the State and EPA. The 
commenter states that 40 CFR 271.7 requires that there be a review by 
the State Attorney General's Office of each State regulation to 
determine if it is consistent with State statutes and that this was not 
done in this case.
    EPA Response: Actually, each State regulation has been carefully 
reviewed in accordance with Sec.  271.7. The Attorney General's 
Statement (page 1) submitted as part of the State's application for 
authorization certifies that the State has the statutory authority to 
``carry out the hazardous waste program set forth in the application.'' 
This Statement was submitted following a review by that Office of all 
of the State regulations which determined (as reflected in the 
certification) that they all are consistent with the State statutes. In 
addition, the Attorney General's Statement is accompanied by a 
Statutory Checklist which lists the statutory authority on which the 
different kinds of State regulations are based. For example, under 
section XVII, item 1, the Checklist explains that the State Department 
of Environmental Protection (DEP) has the statutory authority pursuant 
to C.G.S. sections 22a-6(a) and 22a-449(c) to grant variances and 
exemptions that are no less stringent than allowed by the EPA in the 
Federal RCRA program. Finally, under C.G.S. section 4-169, no 
regulation can take effect in Connecticut until the regulation has been 
reviewed and approved by the Attorney General's Office. This State-law 
mandated review of the regulations also occurred in this case.
    The only way in which this process has been ``expedited'' is that 
the EPA has not required that the State statutory authority be 
separately listed for each of the State regulations, but rather has 
accepted the determinations by the Attorney General that certain groups 
of regulations all are supported by the same statutory authority. For 
example, the EPA has not required the State to list C.G.S. sections 
22a-6(a) and 22a-449(c) next to each exemption that is being adopted, 
but rather has allowed the Attorney General to certify that those 
provisions support all of the exemptions that are being adopted. This 
in no way has reduced the thoroughness with which the regulations have 
been reviewed by the State Attorney General (or by EPA), but rather has 
simply avoided duplication and saved paper.
    Comment #2: The commenter also states that the updated State 
regulations (22a-449(c)-106) incorporate by reference Federal 
regulations (40 CFR 266.20) which allow ``the use of hazardous waste as 
fertilizer,'' and that this violates a State statute (22a-209f) which 
specifies that the DEP Commissioner may issue general permits covering 
the beneficial use of solid wastes but that such permits shall not 
apply to the reuse of hazardous wastes.
    EPA Response: First, the EPA does not have regulations which allow 
``the use of hazardous waste as fertilizer.'' Rather, the EPA 
regulations allow (subject to strict standards) the use of certain 
fertilizers which have been produced as a result of the recycling of 
hazardous wastes.
    Second, the updated State regulations do not incorporate by 
reference the EPA regulation (40 CFR 266.20(d)(1)) allowing for the use 
of zinc fertilizers produced from hazardous wastes. This exemption was 
adopted by the EPA on July 24, 2002. The updated State regulations 
incorporate EPA requirements through January 1, 2001, and thus do not 
incorporate this exemption. Thus, there is no need for the EPA to 
address in this rulemaking whether the 40 CFR 266.20(d)(1) exemption 
would be consistent with Connecticut statutory requirements. The EPA 
suggests that the commenter raise any concerns it has about Connecticut 
adopting this rule only if and when Connecticut proposes in a State 
rulemaking to adopt the rule. Raising the issue now is premature, and 
raising State law issues to EPA only after a State has adopted the 
exemption at the State level would be unfair to the State.
    The updated State regulations do continue to incorporate by 
reference the EPA regulations (in 40 CFR 266.20) which allow ``use 
constituting disposal'' of products made from hazardous wastes, if the 
hazardous wastes first have been treated to the point of

[[Page 57844]]

meeting all applicable treatment standards in 40 CFR part 268. This 
includes allowing use of fertilizers made from hazardous wastes, if 
they have first been treated to the point of meeting those standards. 
However, this exemption was first adopted by the State in 1989 and 
authorized by the EPA in 1990. While the updated State regulations 
incorporate updated clarifying language, they make no substantive 
change. Thus whether or not Connecticut may allow products made from 
hazardous wastes to be utilized as fertilizers is not a part of the 
current rulemaking. It is far too late for the commenter to challenge 
the State's decision in 1989 to adopt the EPA regulations regarding 
``use constituting disposal.''
    Although the issue is not part of this rulemaking, the EPA notes 
that it seems clear that the State does have the statutory authority to 
allow the use of recycled materials as fertilizer. In particular, 
C.G.S. section 22a-449(c) specifies that the DEP Commissioner may adopt 
``such regulations as he deems necessary to carry out the intent of * * 
* Subtitle C of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act * * *'' The 
regulations regarding ``use constituting disposal'' are a part of the 
Federal RCRA program, which the statute gives the DEP the power to 
implement. Moreover, C.G.S. 22a-209f does not prohibit the use of 
recycled materials. It simply specifies that general permits issued 
under the State's solid waste program may not be used to cover 
hazardous wastes. When adopting the ``use constituting disposal'' 
regulations, the DEP did not violate this provision since it did not 
issue any general permits. Indeed, it should be noted that under the 
use constituting disposal regulations, all applicable individual permit 
requirements continue to apply to the companies which recycle the 
hazardous wastes.
    Comment 3: The commenter also objects to the State adopting the 
``Bevill exemption'' and asserts that this exemption is not authorized 
by any State statute.
    EPA Response: The ``Bevill exemption'' in 40 CFR 261.4(b)(7) was 
adopted by Connecticut in 1989 and the State regulations were 
authorized by the EPA in 1990. It is again too late for these decisions 
to be challenged. The EPA notes, however, that it seems clear that the 
State has the statutory authority to adopt this exemption under C.G.S. 
section 22a-449(c). The commenter notes that there are specific State 
statutes creating exemptions and approved disposal methods for wood 
wastes and waste sands from casting metals, but that no such similar 
statutes exist for Bevill wastes or for hazardous wastes recycled to 
make fertilizers. However, the absence of a statute that creates a 
specific exemption for Bevill wastes or for fertilizers does not mean 
that the DEP lacks the authority to adopt these Federal RCRA program 
provisions, since the DEP has been granted the general statutory 
authority to implement the Federal RCRA program.
    In this program update, the State has adopted the provisions in 40 
CFR 266.112 which restrict the use of the Bevill exemption. The 
commenter has not shown any reason why the EPA should not authorize 
this more environmentally protective provision. If the EPA was to deny 
authorization of this revision, this would simply mean that for 
purposes of Federal enforcement, the older less protective requirements 
would remain in place. The EPA is approving this revision because it 
tracks the current more protective Federal requirements relating to the 
Bevill exemption.

D. What Decisions Does the EPA Make in This Rule?

    We believe that the State of Connecticut's application to revise 
its authorized program meets all of the statutory and regulatory 
requirements established by RCRA. Therefore, we grant Connecticut Final 
authorization to operate its hazardous waste program with the changes 
described in the authorization application.

E. What Changes Is the EPA Authorizing With Today's Action?

Table 3 in the Program Description and including changes that the State 
has made to its base program regulations that were authorized in 1990.
    The specific State regulations that the EPA is proposing to 
authorize are listed in the table below. State provisions listed as 
``analogous'' may be equivalent or may be more stringent/go beyond the 
Federal regulations. The Federal requirements in the table are 
identified by reference to the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). The 
following abbreviation is used in defining corresponding state 
authority: R.C.S.A. (Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies). Note 
that the table below has been slightly revised from the table in the 
proposed rulemaking due to ongoing State and Federal legal review.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes:
 
 1. Various State regulations are being authorized even though they are
  listed opposite ``none'' in the description of the corresponding
  Federal requirements, because the State regulations either are
  equivalent to the Federal regulations overall (e.g., add clarifying
  language) or because the State regulations add more stringent
  requirements which are becoming part of the federally enforceable RCRA
  program.
2. In addition to authorizing the particular State regulations listed
  above, the EPA is authorizing the various State regulations which
  generally incorporate Federal requirements by reference, namely
  R.C.S.A. 22a-449(c)-100(b)(1), 22a-449(c)-101(a)(1), 22a-449(c)-
  102(a)(1), 22a-449(c)-103(a)(1), 22a-449(c)-104(a)(1), 22a-449(c)-
  105(a)(1), 22a-449(c)-106(a)(1), 22a-449(c)-108(a)(1), 22a-449(c)-
  110(a)(1), 22a-449(c)-113(a)(1), and 22a-449(c)-119(a)(1). Many of
  these regulations were previously authorized insofar as they
  incorporated Federal requirements through July 1, 1989. The EPA now is
  authorizing all of these regulations in order to include in the
  authorized Connecticut program Federal requirements through January 1,
  2001.
3. In addition to the regulations listed in the tables above and in
  footnotes 2 and 3 above, there are various state regulations to which
  the State has made minor editorial, error correction or similar
  changes, or to which the State has changed the regulation number
  (redesignated), as described in the footnotes to the State Regulatory
  Checklists (in the docket). The EPA also is authorizing these minor
  changes.
4. The authorization of new State regulations and regulation changes is
  in addition to the previous authorization of State regulations, which
  have not changed and remain part of the authorized program.

    Following review of the Connecticut regulations, the EPA has 
determined that they are equivalent to, no less stringent than and 
consistent with the Federal program. The reasons for these 
determinations are set forth in the Administrative Docket, which is 
available for public review. Many of the State regulations incorporate 
Federal

[[Page 57856]]

requirements by reference and are virtually identical. In some cases, 
the State regulations add clarifying language, and the EPA considers 
the clarifications to be equivalent to the Federal regulations. 
Finally, there are some State regulations which are more stringent 
than, broader in scope than, or different but equivalent to the Federal 
regulations, as described in the Program Description and summarized 
below.

F. How Are the State Rules Different From the Federal Rules?

    The most significant differences between the authorized State rules 
and the Federal rules are summarized below. It should be noted that 
this summary does not describe every difference, or every detail 
regarding the differences that are described. Members of the regulated 
community are advised to read the complete regulations to ensure that 
they understand all of the requirements with which they will need to 
comply.

1. More Stringent Provisions

    There are aspects of the Connecticut program which are more 
stringent than the Federal program. All of these more stringent 
requirements are becoming part of the federally enforceable RCRA 
program when authorized by the EPA, and must be complied with in 
addition to the State requirements which track the minimum Federal 
requirements. These more stringent requirements include the following, 
which are more fully described in the Program Description:

--Additional registration, reporting and other requirements for 
hazardous waste recyclers;
--Additional specifications regarding when to make hazardous waste 
determinations;
--Additional waste handling and other requirements for large quantity 
generators, small quantity generators and conditionally exempt small 
quantity generators. Note also that the State more stringently defines 
who may qualify to be small quantity generators or conditionally exempt 
small quantity generators (e.g., anyone accumulating more than 1,000 kg 
of hazardous waste is a large quantity generator in Connecticut vs. the 
federal accumulation limit is 6,000 kg);
--Additional requirements regarding manifests;
--Additional requirements regarding transporter temporary storage and 
personnel training;
--Additional requirements regarding management of lead acid batteries;
--Additional requirements regarding Boilers and Industrial Furnaces. 
Note, also, that Connecticut did not incorporate by reference 40 CFR 
266.100(b), which replaced the standards applicable to BIFs in 40 CFR 
part 266, subpart H with the Maximum Achievable Control Technology 
requirements of 40 CFR part 63, subpart EEE, and thus Connecticut 
continues to require following the more stringent part 266, subpart H 
standards;
--Prohibition of the underground injection of hazardous waste;
--Additional groundwater monitoring requirements for interim status 
facilities;
--Additional requirements for permitted facilities;
--Additional requirements for used oil.

2. Broader-in-Scope Provisions

    There also are aspects of the Connecticut program which are broader 
in scope than the Federal program. The State requirements which are 
broader in scope are not considered to be part of the federally 
enforceable RCRA program. However, they are fully enforceable under 
State law and must be complied with by sources within Connecticut. 
These broader-in-scope requirements include the following, which are 
more fully described in the Program Description:

--While the EPA generally does not regulate the recycling process 
itself, and exempts some recyclable materials from all RCRA regulation, 
the CTDEP Commissioner may impose additional requirements on persons 
engaging in recycling activities, including those recycling activities 
and recyclable materials that would otherwise be exempt from 
regulation. Such additional requirements will generally involve matters 
beyond the scope of EPA's regulations;
--Connecticut regulates certain recyclable materials that are exempt 
from RCRA regulation under the Federal regulations, including scrap 
metals meeting the characteristics of ignitability or reactivity, and 
commercial chemical products when accumulated speculatively;
--Connecticut requires hazardous waste transporters to obtain State 
permits and prohibits generators from offering hazardous wastes to any 
transporters who do not have permits;
--In addition to the federally enforceable RCRA permitting 
requirements, Conn. Gen. Stat. 22a-454 requires persons engaged in 
certain additional activities to obtain permits (e.g., facilities in 
the business of collecting, storing, or treating used oil);
--Connecticut law requires approval by the Connecticut Siting Council 
for hazardous waste facilities;
--Connecticut has established fees for hazardous waste permits and 
certain status changes;
--Connecticut expanded the definition of ``used oil'' to include oil 
that has not been used but is no longer suitable for the services for 
which it was manufactured due to the presence of impurities or a loss 
of original properties. This expanded definition results in the 
regulation under the State's used oil program of some additional oils 
which would not be regulated in the Federal used oil program. Also, 
some of these oils are not characteristically hazardous and thus would 
not be regulated as fully regulated hazardous wastes in the Federal 
RCRA program. (This expanded definition also allows for the regulation 
of some additional oils which are characteristically hazardous, under 
the used oil program rather than under the full RCRA program.)

3. Different but Equivalent Provisions

    There also are some Connecticut regulations which differ from, but 
have been determined to be equivalent to, the Federal regulations. 
These authorized State regulations are becoming part of the federally 
enforceable RCRA program. These different but equivalent requirements 
include some requirements related to Corrective Action described in the 
next section, and also the following:

--In addition to batteries, pesticides, thermostats and mercury-
containing lamps included in the Federal universal waste rule, 
Connecticut added used electronics (including CRTs) to the State's 
universal waste rule;
--Under Federal regulations, K174 wastes are not classified as 
hazardous wastes if certain requirements are met. Connecticut 
classifies K174 wastes as hazardous wastes but excludes these wastes 
from certain hazardous waste requirements provided certain requirements 
are met. While Connecticut's approach is different, the State's 
requirements for these wastes are equivalent to the Federal 
requirements;
--Connecticut modified the Federal provisions for rebutting the 
presumption that used oil has been mixed with F001 or F002 wastes in 
order to incorporate a long-standing EPA policy interpretation.

[[Page 57857]]

G. What Is the Connecticut Corrective Action Program That Is Being 
Authorized?

    As part of this program update, the State is assuming 
responsibility for operating the Federal Corrective Action program. The 
authorized program covers all Treatment Storage and Disposal Facilities 
(TSDFs) subject to 40 CFR 264.101, which includes (i) active facilities 
which need permits to conduct ongoing treatment, storage or disposal, 
and (ii) interim status land disposal facilities which have been 
required to seek post closure permits under the EPA regulations.
    The State regulations incorporate 40 CFR 264.101 by reference with 
certain more stringent changes and thus meet the Federal Corrective 
Action requirements with respect to all facilities which have been or 
will be permitted. In addition, the State has adopted regulations 
(R.C.S.A. 22a-449(c)-105(h) and 22a-449(c)-110(a)(2)(RR)) which will 
accelerate Corrective Action at the interim status land disposal 
facilities, prior to permitting. Under these regulations, all of the 
interim status land disposal facilities have been required to submit 
Environmental Condition Assessment Forms (ECAFs) to the CTDEP. 
Following review by the CTDEP of the ECAFs, the regulations require 
that Corrective Action occur either under the direct supervision of the 
CTDEP or under the direction of a Licensed Environmental Professional 
(LEP). Whether sites are remediated under the direction of the CTDEP or 
under the direction of a LEP, the regulations specify that there will 
be a review of the remediation by the CTDEP prior to any determination 
that remediation is complete. Sites will remain in interim status until 
there is such a completeness determination. The regulations further 
provide for opportunities for public comment for all sites both at the 
time of remedy selection and prior to any completeness determination.
    The State's regulations also recognize that some sites have or will 
undertake Corrective Action pursuant to Connecticut General Statutes 
sections 22a-134 to 22a-134e (the ``Transfer Act''). Corrective Action 
at such sites will be subject to the same requirements for CTDEP review 
(including review of LEP determinations) and the same public comment 
procedures as specified above.
    The EPA believes that the State program is ``equivalent'' to the 
EPA Corrective Action program, for the reasons explained below, and 
further explained in the January 30, 2002, Memorandum entitled 
``Connecticut Corrective Action Regulations'' by EPA Assistant Regional 
Counsel Jeffry Fowley (in the docket). The EPA regulations contemplate 
that Corrective Action will occur at sites subject to 40 CFR 264.101, 
pursuant to permits (or orders). Under the State program, permits 
similarly will be issued to active facilities and ultimately to some 
interim status facilities requiring long-term operation and maintenance 
(e.g., closed landfills). While other interim status facilities may 
satisfy their closure obligations at regulated units and achieve full 
remediation pursuant to the State regulations and the Transfer Act 
prior to being issued post closure permits, and thus may never need to 
be issued post closure permits, this involves an acceleration of effort 
which is environmentally beneficial. The EPA believes that the State's 
approach--of having the State agency review whether Corrective Action 
is complete, after Corrective Action has been carried out under the 
State regulations and the Transfer Act (sometimes under the direction 
of a LEP)--is equivalent to the EPA approach of carrying out Corrective 
Action under the direction of the EPA through a permit. Also, the 
opportunities for public comment required by the State regulations are 
equivalent to the public comment procedures applicable to EPA permits. 
Finally, the State has the needed enforcement authority to ensure that 
Corrective Action is promptly and fully carried out at sites subject to 
the State regulations and Transfer Act.
    In determining whether remediation is complete, the State and EPA 
will utilize the Connecticut Remediation Standard Regulations (RSRs), 
R.C.S.A. 22a-133k-1 et seq., as their primary tool. The EPA believes 
that the State's approach meets the Federal (40 CFR 264.101) 
requirement for protection of human health and the environment for the 
reasons explained below, and further explained in the June 2, 2004, 
Memorandum entitled ``CT Remediation Standard Regulations'' by David 
Lim, CT State Coordinator, EPA RCRA Corrective Action Section (in the 
docket). The RSRs contain numeric standards for the remediation of soil 
and groundwater which generally are at least as protective as what 
would be achieved through site-specific assessments in EPA directed 
cleanups. For those rare situations where the general standards of the 
RSRs might not be sufficient, the RSRs contain ``Omnibus'' provisions 
(sections 22a-133k-2(i) and 22a-133k-3(i)) that allow the State to 
require additional measures. In the Memorandum of Agreement, the EPA 
and CTDEP have identified particular situations in which this Omnibus 
authority will be used at Corrective Action sites.
    In addition to the sites subject to 40 CFR 264.101, there are other 
sites in Connecticut subject to Corrective Action under RCRA section 
3008(h). These are former non-land disposal facilities (mostly 
container storage areas and tanks) which may no longer need permits. 
However, under the Federal Corrective Action program, as permit 
applicants initially, these facilities acquired site-wide Corrective 
Action obligations that must be met. The EPA has not established a 
mechanism for authorizing States to administer the Corrective Action 
program for such sites. However, in the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA), 
the EPA and CTDEP have agreed on a coordinated approach to avoid 
duplication of effort with respect to such sites. In particular, the 
EPA and CTDEP expect that many of these sites will undertake Corrective 
Action under the Transfer Act. The CTDEP has agreed in the MOA to 
utilize the same governmental review and public comment procedures with 
respect to these non-land disposal facilities as it follows for the 
land disposal facilities. As also specified in the MOA, the EPA will 
retain all of its statutory enforcement authority with respect to the 
non-land disposal facilities, just as it retains its statutory 
enforcement authority even with respect to the sites subject to the 
formal authorization. However, the EPA generally does not anticipate 
taking enforcement action against non-land disposal facilities which 
promptly and fully carry out Corrective Action pursuant to the Transfer 
Act, just as the EPA generally does not anticipate taking enforcement 
action against land disposal facilities which promptly and fully carry 
out Corrective Action pursuant to the State regulations described above 
and the Transfer Act. This agreement entered into by the EPA and CTDEP 
to avoid duplication of effort is further described in the MOA. While 
the statements in the MOA (and in this Federal Register notice) do not 
create any legal rights or defenses, the EPA hopes that the agreed upon 
coordination between the EPA and the CTDEP will foster site cleanups 
using a One-Cleanup approach.
    It is the long-term goal of the EPA and CTDEP that the CTDEP will 
be the lead overseeing agency for all sites subject to Corrective 
Action in Connecticut. However, the EPA will continue to be the lead 
agency for certain sites for a variety of reasons that could include

[[Page 57858]]

maximizing the Federal and State resources available to oversee the 
program, implementing special initiatives such as achieving 
environmental indicators or enhancing enforcement. Further, the EPA and 
CTDEP will at times provide technical and/or logistical support to one 
another.

H. What Is the Effect of This Authorization Decision?

    At the Federal level, the effect of this authorization decision is 
that entities in Connecticut subject to RCRA will be able to comply 
with the authorized State requirements instead of the Federal 
requirements, with respect to the matters covered by the authorized 
State requirements, in order to comply with RCRA. However, there will 
continue to be a dual Federal RCRA program in Connecticut for the few 
HSWA rules (adopted since January 1, 2001) for which the state is not 
presently seeking authorization, and for any self-implementing HSWA 
statutory requirements for which the State has not adopted regulations 
(e.g., RCRA section 3005(j), 42 U.S.C. 6925(j)). RCRA was amended by 
the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments (``HSWA'') in 1984. Section 
3006(g) of RCRA, 42 U.S.C. 6906(g), provides that when the EPA 
promulgates new regulatory requirements pursuant to HSWA, the EPA shall 
directly carry out these requirements in states authorized to 
administer the underlying base hazardous waste program, until the 
states are authorized to administer these new requirements. The EPA has 
established a few new regulatory requirements pursuant to HSWA which 
are not yet proposed to be authorized to be administered by 
Connecticut. Regulated entities will need to comply with these HSWA 
requirements as set out in the Federal regulations and statute in 
addition to authorized State program requirements. A complete list of 
HSWA requirements is set out in 40 CFR 271.1, Tables 1 and 2.

I. Who Handles Permits After the Authorization Takes Effect?

    With respect to TSDF permitting, Connecticut will continue to issue 
permits for all the provisions for which it is authorized and will 
administer the permits it issues. The EPA will continue to administer 
any RCRA hazardous waste permits or portions of permits it has issued. 
The EPA also will continue to issue permits or portions of permits 
covering HSWA requirements for which Connecticut is not authorized.

J. How Will Today's Action Affect Indian Country in Connecticut?

    Connecticut is not authorized to carry out its hazardous waste 
program in Indian country within the State (lands of the Mohegan Nation 
and the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation). Today's action will have no 
effect on Indian country. The EPA will continue to implement and 
administer the RCRA program in these lands.

K. What Is Codification and Will EPA Codify Connecticut's Hazardous 
Waste Program as Authorized in This Rule?

    The EPA is authorizing but not codifying the enumerated revisions 
to the Connecticut program. 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. The EPA 
does this by referencing the authorized State rules in 40 CFR part 272. 
The EPA reserves the amendment of 40 CFR part 272, subpart H for the 
codification of Connecticut's program until a later date.

L. Administrative Requirements

    The EPA has examined the effects of the State authorization 
decision discussed above and reached the conclusions set out below.
    The Office of Management and Budget has exempted this action from 
the requirements of Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 
1993), and therefore this action is not subject to review by OMB.
    This action authorizes State requirements for the purpose of RCRA 
3006 and imposes no additional requirements beyond those imposed by 
State law. Accordingly, the EPA certifies that this action 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.).
    Because this action authorizes pre-existing 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 (Public Law 104-4). For the 
same reason, this action also does not significantly or uniquely affect 
the communities of tribal governments, as specified by Executive Order 
13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). This action will not have 
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, as 
specified in Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999), 
because it merely authorizes State requirements as part of the State 
RCRA hazardous waste program without altering the relationship or the 
distribution of power and responsibilities established by RCRA.
    This action also is not subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 
19885, April 23, 1997), because it is not economically significant and 
it does not make decisions based on environmental health or safety 
risks. This rule is not subject to Executive Order 13211, ``Actions 
Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 
Distribution, or Use'' (66 FR 28355 (May 22, 2001)) because it is not a 
significant regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.
    Under RCRA 3006(b), EPA grants a State's application for 
authorization as long as the State meets the criteria required by RCRA. 
It would thus be inconsistent with applicable law for EPA, when it 
reviews a State authorization application, to require the use of any 
particular voluntary consensus standard in place of another standard 
that otherwise satisfies the 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.
    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. 
EPA also has complied with Executive Order 12630 (53 F.R. 8859, March 
15, 1988) by examining the takings implications of the rule in 
accordance with the Attorney General's Supplemental Guidelines for the 
Evaluation of Risk and Avoidance of Unanticipated Takings issued under 
the Executive Order.
    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the 
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally 
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating 
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule, 
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the 
United States. EPA is submitting a report containing this document and 
other required information 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

[[Page 57859]]

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 in 
5 U.S.C. 804(2). This action will be effective immediately upon today's 
publication in the Federal Register.
    This rule does not impose any information collection burden under 
the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 
et seq.).
