[EPA-R04-RCRA-2024-0451; FRL-12278-02-R4]

Tennessee: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste 
Management Program Revisions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: Tennessee has applied to the Environmental Protection Agency 
(EPA) for final authorization of changes to its hazardous waste program 
under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), as amended. 
The EPA has reviewed Tennessee's application and has determined, 
subject to public comment, that these changes satisfy all requirements 
needed to qualify for final authorization. Therefore, in the ``Rules 
and Regulations'' section of this Federal Register, we are authorizing 
Tennessee for these changes as a final action without a prior proposed 
rule. If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action 
on this proposed rule.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before December 20, 2024.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R04-
RCRA-2024-0451, at https://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online 
instructions for submitting comments. Once submitted, comments cannot 
be edited or removed from www.regulations.gov. The EPA may publish any 
comment received to its public docket. Do not submit electronically any 
information you consider to be Confidential Business Information (CBI) 
or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. 
Multimedia submissions (audio, video, etc.) must be accompanied by a 
written

comment. The written comment is considered the official comment and 
should include discussion of all points you wish to make. The EPA will 
generally not consider comments or comment contents located outside of 
the primary submission (i.e., on the web, cloud, or other file sharing 
system). For additional submission methods, the full EPA public comment 
policy, information about CBI or multimedia submissions, and general

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document proposes to take action on 
Tennessee's changes to its hazardous waste management program under the 
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), as amended. We have 
published a final action authorizing these changes in the ``Rules and 
Regulations'' section of this Federal Register because we view this as 
a noncontroversial action and anticipate no adverse comment. We have 
explained our reasons for this action in the preamble to the final 
action.
    If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action 
on this proposed rule. If we receive adverse comment, we will either 
withdraw the final action, or issue a notice containing a response to 
comments that either reverses the decision or affirms that the final 
action will take effect. In the event that the final action is 
withdrawn, we would address all public comments in a subsequent final 
action and make any further decision on the authorization of the State 
program changes after considering all comments received during the 
comment period.
    We do not intend to institute a second comment period on this 
action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time. 
For further information, please see the information provided in the 
ADDRESSES section of this document.

    Dated: November 6, 2024.
Jeaneanne Gettle,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region 4.
