Louisiana: Final Authorization of StateInitiated Changes and Incorporation by 

Reference of Approved State 

Hazardous Waste Management 

Program 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Direct final rule. 

SUMMARY: During a review of 

Louisiana’s regulations, the EPA 

identified a variety of State-initiated 

changes to its hazardous waste program 

under the Resource Conservation and 

Recovery Act (RCRA). We have 

determined that these changes are minor 

and satisfy all requirements needed to 

qualify for Final authorization and are 

authorizing the State-initiated changes 

through this direct Final action. In 

addition, this document corrects 

technical errors made in various Federal 

Register authorization documents for 

Louisiana. 

The Solid Waste Disposal Act, as 

amended, commonly referred to as the 

Resource Conservation and Recovery 

Act (RCRA), allows the Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA) to authorize 

States to operate their hazardous waste 

management programs in lieu of the 

Federal program. The EPA uses the 

regulations entitled ‘‘Approved State 

Hazardous Waste Management 

Programs’’ to provide notice of the 

authorization status of State programs 

and to incorporate by reference those 

provisions of the State statutes and 

regulations that will be subject to the 

EPA’s inspection and enforcement. The 

rule codifies in the regulations the prior 

approval of Louisiana’s hazardous waste 

management program and incorporates 

by reference authorized provisions of 

the State’s statutes and regulations. 

DATES: This regulation is effective 

October 4, 2010, unless the EPA 

receives adverse written comment on 

this regulation by the close of business 

September 7, 2010. If the EPA receives 

such comments, it will publish a timely 

withdrawal of this direct final rule in 

the Federal Register informing the 

public that this rule will not take effect. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approves this incorporation by reference 

as of October 4, 2010 in accordance with 

5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR part 51.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Authorization of State-Initiated 

Changes 

A. Why are revisions to State programs 

necessary? 

States which have received Final 

authorization from the 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 

hazardous waste program. As the 

Federal program changes, the States 

must change their programs and ask the 

EPA to authorize the changes. Changes 

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 

change their programs because of 

changes to the EPA’s regulations in 40 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) parts 

124, 260 through 268, 270, 273 and 279. 

States can also initiate their own 

changes to their hazardous waste 

program and these changes must then be 

authorized. 

B. What decisions have we made in this 

rule? 

We conclude that Louisiana’s 

revisions to its authorized program meet 

all of the statutory and regulatory 

requirements established by RCRA. We 

found that the State-initiated changes 

make Louisiana’s rules more clear or 

conform more closely to the Federal 

equivalents and are so minor in nature 

that a formal application is unnecessary. 

Therefore, we grant Louisiana final 

authorization to operate its hazardous

47224 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 150 / Thursday, August 5, 2010 / Rules and Regulations 

waste program with the changes 

described in the table at Section G 

below. Louisiana has responsibility for 

permitting Treatment, Storage, and 

Disposal Facilities (TSDFs) within its 

borders (except in Indian Country) and 

for carrying out all authorized aspects of 

the RCRA program, 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, 

the EPA will implement those 

requirements and prohibitions in 

Louisiana, 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 is that a 

facility in Louisiana subject to RCRA 

will now have to comply with the 

authorized State requirements instead of 

the equivalent Federal requirements in 

order to comply with RCRA. Louisiana 

has enforcement responsibilities under 

its State hazardous waste program for 

violations of such program, but the EPA 

retains its authority under RCRA 

sections 3007, 3008, 3013, and 7003, 

which include, among others, authority 

to: 

• Do inspections, and require 

monitoring, tests, analyses, or reports; 

• Enforce RCRA requirements and 

suspend or revoke permits; and 

• Take enforcement actions regardless 

of whether the State has taken its own 

actions. 

This action does not impose 

additional requirements on the 

regulated community because the 

statutes and regulations for which 

Louisiana is being authorized by this 

direct final action are already effective 

and are not changed by this action. 

D. Why wasn’t there a proposed rule 

before this rule? 

The EPA did not publish a proposal 

before this rule because we view this as 

a routine program change and do not 

expect comments that oppose this 

approval. We are providing an 

opportunity for public comment now. In 

addition to this rule, in the Proposed 

Rules section of this Federal Register 

we are publishing a separate document 

that proposes to authorize the State 

program changes. 

E. What happens if EPA receives 

comments that oppose this action? 

If the EPA receives comments that 

oppose this authorization or the 

incorporation-by-reference of the State 

program, we will withdraw this rule by 

publishing a timely document in the 

Federal Register before the rule 

becomes effective. The EPA will base 

any further decision on the 

authorization of the State program 

changes, or the incorporation-byreference, on the proposal mentioned in 

the previous paragraph. We will then 

address all public comments in a later 

final rule. If you want to comment on 

this authorization and incorporation-byreference, you must do so at this time. 

If we receive comments that oppose 

only the authorization of a particular 

change to the State hazardous waste 

program or the incorporation-byreference of the State program, we may 

withdraw only that part of this rule, but 

the authorization of the program 

changes or the incorporation-byreference of the State program that the 

comments do not oppose will become 

effective on the date specified above. 

The Federal Register withdrawal 

document will specify which part of the 

authorization or incorporation-byreference of the State program will 

become effective and which part is 

being withdrawn. 

F. For what has Louisiana previously 

been authorized? 

The State of Louisiana initially 

received final authorization on January 

24, 1985, effective February 7, 1985 (see 

50 FR 3348), to implement its Base 

Hazardous Waste Management Program. 

Louisiana received authorization for 

revisions to its program effective 

January 29, 1990 (54 FR 48889), October 

25, 1991 (56 FR 41958) as corrected 

October 15, 1991 (56 FR 51762); January 

23, 1995 (59 FR 55368) as corrected 

April 11, 1995 (60 FR 18360); March 8, 

1995 (59 FR 66200); January 2, 1996 (60 

FR 53704 and 60 FR 53707); June 11, 

1996 (61 FR 13777), March 16, 1998 (62 

FR 67572), December 22, 1998 (63 FR 

56830), October 25, 1999 (64 FR 46302), 

November 1, 1999 (64 FR 48099), April 

28, 2000 (65 FR 10411), March 5, 2001 

(66 FR 23), February 9, 2004 (68 FR 

6852), August 9, 2005 (70 FR 33852), 

January 12, 2007 (71 FR 66118), and 

October 15, 2007 (72 FR 45905). 

G. What changes are we authorizing 

with this action? 

The State has made amendments to 

the provisions listed in the table which 

follows. These amendments clarify the 

State’s regulations and make the State’s 

regulations more internally consistent. 

The State’s laws and regulations, as 

amended by these provisions, provide 

authority which remains equivalent to 

and no less stringent than the Federal 

laws and regulations. These Stateinitiated changes satisfy the 

requirements of 40 CFR 271.21(a). We 

are granting Louisiana final 

authorization to carry out the following 

provisions of the State’s program in lieu 

of the Federal program. These 

provisions are analogous to the 

indicated RCRA statutory provisions or 

RCRA regulations found at 40 CFR as of 

July 1, 2005. The Louisiana provisions 

are from the Louisiana Administrative 

Code (LAC), Title 33, Part V effective 

December 31, 2006 (except as noted 

below).

H. Who handles permits after the 

authorization takes effect? 

This authorization does not affect the 

status of State permits and those permits 

issued by the EPA because no new 

substantive requirements are a part of 

these revisions. 

I. How does this action affect Indian 

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

Louisiana is not authorized to carry 

out its Hazardous Waste Program in 

Indian Country within the State. This 

authority remains with EPA. Therefore, 

this action has no effect in Indian 

Country. 

II. Technical Corrections 

The following technical corrections 

are made to various Louisiana 

authorization Federal Register 

documents. There are two types of 

corrections being made. The first type 

includes additions or corrections to the 

list of citations for checklist entries that 

were actually included in the published 

Federal Register documents. These are 

presented in order of the entry number 

and associated checklist followed by a 

brief description of the correction being 

made. The second type of correction is 

the addition of entire checklist entries 

for Federal rules which were 

inadvertently omitted from the original 

authorization tables.

III. Incorporation-by-Reference 

A. What is codification? 

Codification is the process of placing 

a State’s statutes and regulations that 

comprise the State’s authorized 

hazardous waste management program 

into the Code of Federal Regulations 

(CFR). Section 3006(b) of RCRA, as 

amended, allows the Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA) to authorize 

State hazardous waste management 

programs to operate in lieu of the 

Federal hazardous waste management 

regulatory program. The EPA codifies its 

authorization of State programs in 40 

CFR part 272 and incorporates by 

reference State statutes and regulations 

that the EPA will enforce under sections 

3007 and 3008 of RCRA and any other 

applicable statutory provisions. 

The incorporation by reference of 

State authorized programs in the CFR 


wwoods2 on DSK1DXX6B1PROD with RULES_PART 1
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 150 / Thursday, August 5, 2010 / Rules and Regulations 47231 

should substantially enhance the 

public’s ability to discern the current 

status of the authorized State program 

and State requirements that can be 

Federally enforced. This effort provides 

clear notice to the public of the scope 

of the authorized program in each State. 

B. What is the history of codification of 

Louisiana’s hazardous waste 

management program? 

The EPA incorporated by reference 

Louisiana’s then authorized hazardous 

waste program effective March 16, 1998 

(62 FR 67578). In this document, the 

EPA is revising Subpart T of 40 CFR 

part 272 to include the authorization 

revision actions effective March 16, 

1998 (62 FR 67572), December 22, 1998 

(63 FR 56830), October 25, 1999 (64 FR 

46302), November 1, 1999 (64 FR 

48099), April 28, 2000 (65 FR 10411), 

March 5, 2001 (66 FR 23), February 9, 

2004 (68 FR 6852), August 9, 2005 (70 

FR 33852), January 12, 2007 (71 FR 

66118), and October 15, 2007 (72 FR 

45905). 

C. What codification decisions have we 

made in this rule? 

The purpose of this Federal Register 

document is to codify Louisiana’s base 

hazardous waste management program 

and its revisions to that program. The 

EPA provided notices and opportunity 

for comments on the Agency’s decisions 

to authorize the Louisiana program, and 

the EPA is not now reopening the 

decisions, nor requesting comments, on 

the Louisiana authorizations as 

published in the Federal Register 

notices specified in Section I.F of this 

document. 

This document incorporates by 

reference Louisiana’s hazardous waste 

statutes and regulations and clarifies 

which of these provisions are included 

in the authorized and federally 

enforceable program. By codifying 

Louisiana’s authorized program and by 

amending the Code of Federal 

Regulations, the public will be more 

easily able to discern the status of 

federally approved requirements of the 

Louisiana hazardous waste management 

program. 

The EPA is incorporating by reference 

the Louisiana authorized hazardous 

waste program in subpart T of 40 CFR 

part 272. Section 272.951 incorporates 

by reference Louisiana’s authorized 

hazardous waste statutes and 

regulations. Section 272.951 also 

references the statutory provisions 

(including procedural and enforcement 

provisions) which provide the legal 

basis for the State’s implementation of 

the hazardous waste management 

program, the Memorandum of 

Agreement, the Attorney General’s 

Statements and the Program 

Description, which are approved as part 

of the hazardous waste management 

program under Subtitle C of RCRA. 

D. What is the effect of Louisiana’s 

codification on enforcement? 

The EPA retains its authority under 

statutory provisions, including but not 

limited to, RCRA sections 3007, 3008, 

3013 and 7003, and other applicable 

statutory and regulatory provisions to 

undertake inspections and enforcement 

actions and to issue orders in authorized 

States. With respect to these actions, the 

EPA will rely on Federal sanctions, 

Federal inspection authorities, and 

Federal procedures rather than any 

authorized State analogues to these 

provisions. Therefore, the EPA is not 

incorporating by reference such 

particular, approved Louisiana 

procedural and enforcement authorities. 

Section 272.951(c)(2) of 40 CFR lists the 

statutory provisions which provide the 

legal basis for the State’s 

implementation of the hazardous waste 

management program, as well as those 

procedural and enforcement authorities 

that are part of the State’s approved 

program, but these are not incorporated 

by reference. 

E. What State provisions are not part of 

the codification? 

The public needs to be aware that 

some provisions of Louisiana’s 

hazardous waste management program 

are not part of the federally authorized 

State program. These non-authorized 

provisions include: 

(1) Provisions that are not part of the 

RCRA subtitle C program because they 

are ‘‘broader in scope’’ than RCRA 

subtitle C (see 40 CFR 271.1(i)); 

(2) Federal rules adopted by Louisiana 

but for which the State is not 

authorized; 

(3) Unauthorized amendments to 

authorized State provisions; and 

(4) Other new unauthorized State 

requirements. 

State provisions that are ‘‘broader in 

scope’’ than the Federal program are not 

part of the RCRA authorized program 

and the EPA will not enforce them. 

Therefore, they are not incorporated by 

reference in 40 CFR part 272. For 

reference and clarity, 40 CFR 

272.951(c)(3) lists the Louisiana 

regulatory provisions which are 

‘‘broader in scope’’ than the Federal 

program and which are not part of the 

authorized program being incorporated 

by reference. ‘‘Broader in scope’’ 

provisions cannot be enforced by the 

EPA; the State, however, may enforce 

such provisions under State law. 

Additionally, Louisiana’s hazardous 

waste regulations include amendments 

which have not been authorized by the 

EPA. Since the EPA cannot enforce a 

State’s requirements which have not 

been reviewed and authorized in 

accordance with RCRA section 3006 and 

40 CFR part 271, it is important to be 

precise in delineating the scope of a 

State’s authorized hazardous waste 

program. Regulatory provisions that 

have not been authorized by the EPA 

include amendments to previously 

authorized State regulations as well as 

certain Federal rules and new State 

requirements. 

Federal rules Louisiana has adopted 

but is not authorized for include those 

published in the Federal Register on 

August 8, 1986 (51 FR 28664); December 

1, 1987 (52 FR 45788); April 12, 1996 

(61 FR 16290), August 5, 2005 (70 FR 

45508), and July 28, 2006 (71 FR 42928). 

In those instances where Louisiana has 

made unauthorized amendments to 

previously authorized sections of State 

code, the EPA is identifying in 40 CFR 

272.951(c)(4) any regulations which, 

while adopted by the State and 

incorporated by reference, include 

language not authorized by the EPA. 

Those unauthorized portions of the 

State regulations are not federally 

enforceable. Thus, notwithstanding the 

language in Louisiana hazardous waste 

regulations incorporated by reference at 

40 CFR 272.951(c)(1), the EPA will only 

enforce those portions of the State 

regulations that are actually authorized 

by the EPA. For the convenience of the 

regulated community, the actual State 

regulatory text authorized by the EPA 

for the citations listed at 272.951(c)(4) 

(i.e., without the unauthorized 

amendments) is compiled as a separate 

document, Addendum to the EPA 

Approved Louisiana Regulatory 

Requirements Applicable to the 

Hazardous Waste Management 

Program, October 2007. This document 

is available from EPA Region 6, Sixth 

Floor, 1445 Ross Avenue, Dallas, Texas 

75202–2733, Phone number: (214) 665– 

8533, and also Louisiana Department of 

Environmental Quality, 602 N. Fifth 

Street, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70884– 

2178, phone number (225) 219–3559. 

State regulations that are not 

incorporated by reference in this rule at 

40 CFR 272.951(c)(1), or that are not 

listed in 40 CFR 272.951(c)(2) (‘‘legal 

basis for the State’s implementation of 

the hazardous waste management 

program’’), 40 CFR 272.951(c)(3) 

(‘‘broader in scope’’) or 40 CFR 

272.951(c)(4) (‘‘unauthorized state 

amendments’’), are considered new 

unauthorized State requirements. These 


wwoods2 on DSK1DXX6B1PROD with RULES_PART 1
47232 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 150 / Thursday, August 5, 2010 / Rules and Regulations 

requirements are not federally 

enforceable. 

With respect to any requirement 

pursuant to the Hazardous and Solid 

Waste Amendments of 1984 (HSWA) for 

which the State has not yet been 

authorized, the EPA will continue to 

enforce the Federal HSWA standards 

until the State is authorized for these 

provisions. 

F. What will be the effect of Federal 

HSWA requirements on the 

codification? 

The EPA is not amending 40 CFR part 

272 to include HSWA requirements and 

prohibitions that are implemented by 

the EPA. Section 3006(g) of RCRA 

provides that any HSWA requirement or 

prohibition (including implementing 

regulations) takes effect in authorized 

and not authorized States at the same 

time. A HSWA requirement or 

prohibition supersedes any less 

stringent or inconsistent State provision 

which may have been previously 

authorized by the EPA (50 FR 28702, 

July 15, 1985). The EPA has the 

authority to implement HSWA 

requirements in all States, including 

authorized States, until the States 

become authorized for such requirement 

or prohibition. Authorized States are 

required to revise their programs to 

adopt the HSWA requirements and 

prohibitions, and then to seek 

authorization for those revisions 

pursuant to 40 CFR part 271. 

Instead of amending the 40 CFR part 

272 every time a new HSWA provision 

takes effect under the authority of RCRA 

section 3006(g), the EPA will wait until 

the State receives authorization for its 

analog to the new HSWA provision 

before amending the State’s 40 CFR part 

272 incorporation by reference. Until 

then, persons wanting to know whether 

a HSWA requirement or prohibition is 

in effect should refer to 40 CFR 271.1(j), 

as amended, which lists each such 

provision. 

Some existing State requirements may 

be similar to the HSWA requirement 

implemented by the EPA. However, 

until the EPA authorizes those State 

requirements, the EPA can only enforce 

the HSWA requirements and not the 

State analogs. The EPA will not codify 

those State requirements until the State 

receives authorization for those 

requirements. 

Statutory and Executive Order Reviews 

The Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) 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 rule 

incorporates by reference Louisiana’s 

authorized hazardous waste 

management regulations and imposes 

no additional requirements beyond 

those imposed by State law. 

Accordingly, I certify 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 

rule merely incorporates by reference 

certain existing State hazardous waste 

management program requirements 

which the EPA already approved under 

40 CFR part 271, and with which 

regulated entities must already comply, 

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). 

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 

incorporates by reference existing 

authorized State hazardous waste 

management program requirements 

without altering the relationship or the 

distribution of power and 

responsibilities established by RCRA. 

This action also does not have tribal 

implications within the meaning of 

Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, 

November 6, 2000). 

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. 

The requirements being codified are 

the result of Louisiana’s voluntary 

participation in the EPA’s State program 

authorization process under RCRA 

Subtitle C. 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, 

the EPA has taken the necessary steps 

to eliminate drafting errors and 

ambiguity, minimize potential litigation, 

and provide a clear legal standard for 

affected conduct. The EPA has complied 

with Executive Order 12630 (53 FR 

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. 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.). 

The Congressional Review Act, 5 

U.S.C. 801 et seq., as amended 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. The EPA will 

submit 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 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). This action will be 

effective October 4, 2010.

(4) Unauthorized State Amendments. 

(i) The State’s adoption of the NonHSWA Federal rule listed in the

Louisiana has also adopted but is not 

authorized to implement the HSWA 

rules that are listed in the Table in lieu 

of the EPA. The EPA will enforce the 

Federal HSWA standards for which 

Louisiana is not authorized until the 

State receives specific authorization 

from EPA.

These changes were made as part of the 

same state amendment effective 

December 20, 2005. As noted in the 

table above, Louisiana is not authorized 

for the August 5, 2005 Federal final rule, 

however, EPA does recognize Consumer

(iii) The following authorized 

provisions of the Louisiana regulations 

include amendments published in the 

Louisiana Register that are not approved 

by EPA. Such unauthorized 

amendments are not part of the State’s 

authorized program and are, therefore, 

not federally enforceable. Thus, 

notwithstanding the language in the 

Louisiana hazardous waste regulations 

incorporated by reference at paragraph 

(c)(1)(i) of this section, EPA will enforce 

the State provisions that are actually 

authorized by EPA. The effective dates 

of the State’s authorized provisions are
