2 These regulations implement HSWA only to the extent that they apply to tank systems owned or operatedby small quantity generators, establish leak detection requirements for all new underground tank systems, and establish permitting standards for underground tank systems that cannotbe entered for inspection. They also implement RCRA insofar as they apply to certain other tank systems. It is recommended that States seekprogrammodification for the rules promulgatedunder both RCRA authority andHSWA authority by the deadline for the non-HSWA Cluster III (July 1, 1988). See technical corrections ofAugust 15, 1986 (51 FR29430).
