Arkansas: Final Authorization of StateInitiated Changes and Incorporation by 

Reference of State Hazardous Waste 

Management Program 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: During a review of Arkansas’ 

regulations, the Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA) identified a 

variety of State-initiated changes to 

Arkansas’ hazardous waste program 

under the Resource Conservation and 

Recovery Act (RCRA), as amended, for 

which the State had not previously 

sought authorization. EPA proposes to 

authorize the State for the program 

changes. In addition, EPA proposes to 

codify in the regulations entitled 

‘‘Approved State Hazardous Waste 

Management Programs’’, Arkansas’ 

authorized hazardous waste program. 

The EPA will incorporate by reference 

into the Code of Federal Regulations 

(CFR) those provisions of the State 

regulations that are authorized and that 

EPA will enforce under RCRA. 

DATES: Send written comments by 

February 29, 2016. 

ADDRESSES: Submit any comments 

identified by Docket ID No. EPA–R06– 

RCRA–2015–0661 by one of the 

following methods:

Instructions: Do not submit 

information that you consider to be CBI 

or otherwise protected through 

regulations.gov, or email. Direct your 

comment to Docket No. EPA–R06– 

RCRA–2015–0661. The Federal 

regulations.gov Web site is an

comment directly to the EPA without 

going through regulations.gov, your 

email address will be automatically

comment that is placed in the public 

docket and made available on the 

Internet. If you submit an electronic 

comment, the 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 the EPA cannot read your 

comment due to technical difficulties 

and cannot contact you for clarification, 

the EPA may not be able to consider 

your comment. Electronic files should 

avoid the use of special characters, any 

form of encryption, and be free of any

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the 

‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of this 

Federal Register, EPA is authorizing the 

changes by direct final rule. EPA did not 

make a proposal prior to the direct final 

rule because we believe this action is 

not controversial and do not expect 

comments that oppose it. We have 

explained the reasons for this 

authorization in the preamble to the 

direct final rule. Unless we get written 

comments which oppose this 

authorization during the comment 

period, the direct final rule will become 

effective 60 days after publication and 

we will not take further action on this 

proposal. If we receive comments that 

oppose this action, we will withdraw 

the direct final rule and it will not take 

effect. We will then respond to public 

comments in a later final rule based on 

this proposal. You may not have another 

opportunity for comment. If you want to 

comment on this action, you must do so 

at this time. 

The purpose of this Federal Register 

document is to codify Arkansas’ base 

hazardous waste management program 

and its revisions to that program 

through RCRA Cluster XXI (see 79 FR 

64678 October 31, 2014). The EPA 

provided notices and opportunity for 

comments on the Agency’s decisions to 

authorize the Arkansas program, and the 

EPA is not now reopening the decisions, 

nor requesting comments, on the 

Arkansas authorizations as published in 

FR notices specified in Section I.F of the 

direct final rule FR document. 

This document incorporates by 

reference Arkansas’ hazardous waste 

statutes and regulations and clarifies 

which of these provisions are included 

in the authorized and federally 

enforceable program. By codifying 

Arkansas’ 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 

Arkansas hazardous waste management 

program.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For 

clarification of content, contact Mr. Cy 

Greenidge, Program Analyst, Office of 

Government-wide Policy, at 202–219–

(MVCB), 1800 F Street NW., 

Washington, DC 20405, 202–501–4755, 

for information pertaining to status or 

publication schedules. Please cite FTR 

Case 2015–303. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Background 

The FTR currently lists official travel 

expenses and classes of employees that 

are exempt from the mandatory use of 

the Government contractor-issued travel 

charge card. See FTR sections 301–51.2 

and 301–70.704. GSA has determined 

that these exemptions should be 

updated in order for agencies to 

maximize travel charge card rebates. 

This proposed rule emphasizes the need 

for agencies to maximize travel charge 

card rebates by increasing the use of the 

travel charge card. Additionally, this 

proposed rule updates the list of 

exemptions to the mandatory use of the 

Government contractor-issued travel 

charge card, with the goal being to 

increase the issuance and appropriate 

use of travel charge cards for employees 

on official travel. 

B. Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 

Executive Orders (E.O.s) 12866 and 

13563 direct agencies to assess all costs 

and benefits of available regulatory 

alternatives, and if regulation is 

necessary, to select regulatory 

approaches that maximize net benefits 

(including potential economic, 

environmental, public health and safety 

effects, distributive impacts, and 

equity). E.O. 13563 emphasizes the 

importance of quantifying both costs 

and benefits, of reducing costs, of 

harmonizing rules, and of promoting 

flexibility. This proposed rule is not a 

significant regulatory action, and 

therefore, was not subject to review 

under Section 6(b) of E.O. 12866, 

Regulatory Planning and Review, dated 

September 30, 1993. 

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act 

This proposed rule would not have a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities 

within the meaning of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq. This 

proposed rule is also exempt from the 

Administrative Procedure Act pursuant 

to 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(2) because it applies 

to agency management or personnel. 

D. Paperwork Reduction Act 

The Paperwork Reduction Act does 

not apply because the proposed changes 

to the FTR do not impose recordkeeping 

or information collection requirements, 

or the collection of information from 

offerors, contractors, or members of the 

public that require the approval of the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) under 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.
