Approval and Promulgation of Plans 

for Designated Facilities; New Jersey; 

Delegation of Authority 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a 

request from the New Jersey Department 

of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) for 

the delegation of authority to implement 

and enforce the Federal Plan 

Requirements for Municipal Solid 

Waste (MSW) landfills that commenced 

construction on or before July 17, 2014, 

and have not been modified or 

reconstructed since July 17, 2014 

(Federal Plan). On November 21, 2023, 

the NJDEP Assistant Commissioner 

signed a memorandum of agreement 

(MoA) concerning the delegation of 

authority of the Federal Plan to NJDEP 

by the EPA. Subsequently, on November 

28, 2023, the MoA became effective 

upon the EPA Region 2 Administrator’s 

signature. The Federal plan addresses 

the implementation and enforcement of 

the emission guidelines applicable to 

existing MSW landfills located in areas 

not covered by an approved and 

currently effective state plan. The 

Federal plan imposes emission limits 

and other control requirements for 

existing affected MSW landfills which 

will reduce designated pollutants. The 

purpose of this delegation is to transfer 

primary implementation and 

enforcement responsibilities from the 

EPA to NJDEP for existing sources of 

MSW landfills. This document informs 

the public of the MoA, provides a copy 

of the signed document, and proposes to 

amend regulatory text. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

received on or before March 21, 2024.

received to its public docket. Do not 

submit electronically any information 

you consider to be CUI or other 

information whose disclosure is 

restricted by statute. Multimedia 

submissions (audio, video, etc.) must be
