U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY, REGION 10 SEATTLE, WASHINGTON NOTICE OF PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD The EPA Region 10 is proposing to approve a correction to the State of Oregon’s federally authorized RCRA Hazardous Waste Management Program. On January 7 , 2010, EPA published a final rule, under docket EPA - R10 - RCRA 2009 - 0766, granting final authorization for changes the State of Oregon made to its federally authorized RCRA Hazardous Waste Management Program. These authorized changes included, among others, the federal Recycled Used Oil Management Standards; Clarification rule, promulgated on July 30, 2003. During a post - authorization review of the State of Oregon’s regulations, EPA identified that the Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR), related to the federal used oil management requirements (OAR 340 - 100 - 0002), had not been updated to include the adoption of the federal Recycled Used Oil Management Standards; Clarification rule. Therefore, the State did not have an effective state rule and EPA inaccurately referenced this rule in the State’s Final Authorization Action published and effective on January 7, 2010. This action will correct the State of Oregon’s federally authorized program, by removing the inaccurate authorization reference to the federal Recycled Used Oil Management Standards; Clarification rule. The public may submit written comments on this correction during the public comment period which ends 30 days after the date of the publication of both the proposed and direct final rules in the Federal Register. We expect the Federal Register to be published on or about December 9, 2010. Comments may be submitted by one of the following methods:  On line to: www.regulations.gov - Follow the on - l ine instructions for submitting comments.  E - mail to: Kocourek.Nina@epa.gov  Or post - mail to: Nina Kocourek, Mail Stop AWT - 122, U.S. EPA Region 10, Suite 900, 1200 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, WA 98101 - 1128 You may examine the supporting documents online at www.regulations.gov under Docket Number EPA - R10 - RCRA - 2009 - 0947 for this correction. Alternatively, these documents are also available for viewing and copying Monday through Friday, during normal business hours, at the following locations: U.S. EPA, Region 10, Suite 900, 1200 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, WA 98101, contact: Nina Kocourek, phone number (206) 553 - 6502; and the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality, 811 SW Sixth Avenue, Portland, Oregon 97204, contact: David Livengood at (503) 229 - 5 181 . This is a noncontroversial action and EPA does not anticipate any adverse comments on this correction. If EPA receives written adverse comments, during the public comment period, EPA will withdraw the direct final rule and will address all public comments in a subsequent final rule. For additional information, see the proposed and direct final rules which are located in the Rules section of the Federal Register . This notice is issued under the authority of sections 2002 ( a), 3006, and 7004 (b) of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 6912 (a), 6926, and 6974 (b). /s/ December 1, 2010
