Colorado: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management 
Program Revisions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The state of Colorado has applied to EPA for final 
authorization of changes to its hazardous waste program under the 
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). EPA proposes to grant 
final authorization to the hazardous waste program changes submitted by 
the state of Colorado. In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this 
Federal Register, EPA is authorizing the changes in an immediate final 
rule. EPA did not propose the rule prior to issuing the immediate final 
rule because the Agency believes this action is not controversial and 
does not expect comments that oppose it. We have explained the reasons 
for this authorization in the preamble to the immediate final rule. 
Unless we receive written comments that oppose this authorization 
during the comment period, the immediate final rule will become 
effective on the date it establishes, and EPA will not take further 
action on this proposal. If the Agency receives comments that oppose 
this action, EPA will publish a document in the Federal Register 
withdrawing this rule before it takes effect. EPA will then address 
public comments in a later final rule based on this proposal. Any 
parties interested in commenting on this action must do so at this 
time. EPA may not provide further opportunity for comment.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before September 11, 2009.

    Instructions: Direct your comments to Docket ID No. EPA-R08-RCRA-
2009-0341. EPA's policy is that all comments received will be included 
in the public docket without change, including any personal information 
provided, unless the comment includes information claimed to be 
Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information, the 
disclosure of which is restricted by statute. Do not submit information 
that you consider to be CBI or otherwise protected through http://www.regulations.gov, or e-mail. The federal Web site http://www.regulations.gov is an ``anonymous access'' system, which means EPA 
will not know your identity or contact information unless you provide 
it in the body of your comment. If you e-mail your comment directly to 
EPA rather than going through http://www.regulations.gov, your e-mail 
address will be automatically captured and included as part of the 
comment that is placed in the public docket and made available on the 
Internet. If you submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you 
include your name and other contact information in the body of your 
comment and with any disk or CD-ROM you submit. If EPA cannot read your 
comment due to technical difficulties, and cannot contact you for 
clarification, EPA may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic 
files should avoid the use of special characters or any form of 
encryption, and be free of any defects or viruses. For additional 
information about EPA's public docket, visit the EPA Docket Center 
homepage at http://www.epa.gov/epahome/dockets.htm.
    Docket: All documents in the docket are listed in the http://www.regulations.gov index. Although listed in the index, some 
information may not be publicly available, e.g., CBI or other 
information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain other 
material, such as copyrighted material, will be publicly available only 
in hard copy. Publicly available docket materials are available either 
electronically through http://www.regulations.gov or in hard copy from 
9 a.m. to 4 a.m. at: EPA Region 8, 1595 Wynkoop Street, Denver, 
Colorado, contact: Christina Cosentini, phone number (303) 312-6231, or
