21210 Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 83 / Monday, May 1, 1995 / Notices

to approve all of the Campo Band’s

program if draft regulatory requirements

submitted to EPA with its April 18,

1994 application addendum were

adopted before EPA’s final

determination. In addition, EPA noted

that before EPA could grant partial or

full program approval, the Campo Band

had to reaffirm the February 13, 1994

promulgation of emergency regulations

submitted with its final application. On

June 13, 1994, EPA received the final,

adopted revisions to the Campo Band’s

MSWLF permit program. In addition, as

explained under Category I above, EPA

received amendments to the Tribal

Environmental Policy Act of 1990 made

in response to comments received by

EPA during the public comment period.

After reviewing these revisions, and

after thorough consideration of the

public comments, I conclude that the

Campo Band’s application for adequacy

determination meets all of the statutory

and regulatory requirements established

by RCRA. Accordingly, the Campo Band

is granted a determination of adequacy

for all portions of its municipal solid

waste permit program.

Section 4005(a) of RCRA provides that

citizens may use the citizen suit

provisions of section 7002 of RCRA to

enforce the Federal MSWLF Criteria in

40 CFR part 258 independent of any

state/tribal enforcement program. As

EPA explained in the preamble to the

final MSWLF Criteria, EPA expects that

any owner or operator complying with

provisions in a state/tribal program

approved by EPA should be considered

to be in compliance with the Federal

Criteria. See 56 FR 50978, 50995

(October 9, 1991).

Today’s action takes effect on the date

of publication. EPA has good cause

under section 553(d) of the

Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C.

553(d), to put this action into effect less

than 30 days after publication in the

Federal Register. All of the

requirements and obligations in the

Tribe’s program are already in effect as

a matter of tribal law. Today’s action is

a determination that these requirements

ensure compliance with the Federal

Criteria in 40 CFR part 258 and does not

impose any new requirements with

which the regulated community must

begin to comply, nor do the Campo

Band’s requirements become

enforceable by EPA as federal law.

Consequently, it is not necessary to give

notice prior to making its approval

effective.

Compliance With Executive Order

12866

The Office of Management and Budget

has exempted this notice from the

requirements of section 6 of Executive

Order 12866.

Certification Under the Regulatory

Flexibility Act

Pursuant to the provisions of 5 U.S.C.

605(b), I hereby certify that approval of

the tribal MSWLF permit program will

not have a significant economic impact

on a substantial number of small

entities. It does not impose any new

burdens on small entities. This notice,

therefore, does not require a regulatory

flexibility analysis.

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

Under section 202 of the Unfunded

Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (the Act),

Pub. L. 104–4, which was signed into

law on March 22, 1995, EPA generally

must prepare a written statement for

rules with Federal mandates that may

result in estimated costs to State, local,

and tribal governments in the aggregate,

or to the private sector, of $100 million

or more in any one year. When such a

statement is required for EPA rules,

under section 205 of the Act EPA must

identify and consider alternatives,

including the least costly, most costeffective or least burdensome alternative

that achieves the objectives of the rule.

EPA must select that alternative, unless

the Administrator explains in the final

rule why it was not selected or it is

inconsistent with law. Before EPA

establishes regulatory requirements that

may significantly or uniquely affect

small governments, including tribal

governments, it must develop under

section 203 of the Act a small

government agency plan. The plan must

provide for notifying potentially

affected small governments, giving them

meaningful and timely input in the

development of EPA regulatory

proposals with significant Federal

intergovernmental mandates, and

informing, educating, and advising them

on compliance with the regulatory

requirements.

The Act generally excludes from the

definition of a ‘‘Federal

intergovernmental mandate’’ (in

sections 202, 203, and 205) duties that

arise from participation in a voluntary

Federal program. The Campo Band’s

request for approval of a MSWLF

program is voluntary and imposes no

Federal intergovernmental mandate

within the meaning of the Act. Rather,

by having its MSWLF program

approved, the Tribe will be able to

implement the RCRA Subtitle D

program over landfills within its

jurisdiction, and to exercise the

flexibility allowed in the rules to

conform landfill requirements to sitespecific conditions.

In any event, the Agency does not

believe that approval of the Tribe’s

program would result in estimated costs

of $100 million or more to State, local,

and tribal governments in the aggregate,

or to the private sector, in any one year;

this is due to the small size of the

Tribe’s program, and the additional

flexibility that the Tribe can exercise.

Thus, today’s notice is not subject to the

written statement requirements in

sections 202 and 205 of the Act.

As to section 203 of the Act, the

approval of the Tribal program will not

significantly or uniquely affect small

governments other than the applicant,

the Campo Band. As to the applicant,

the Tribe has received notice of the

requirements of an approved program,

has had meaningful and timely input

into the development of the program

requirements, and is fully informed as

to compliance with the approved

program. Thus, any applicable

requirements of section 203 of the Act

have been satisfied.

Authority: This notice is issued under the

authority of sections 2002, 4005 and 4010(c)

of the Solid Waste Disposal Act as amended;

Dated: April 12, 1995.

of the Board’s Regulation Y (12 CFR

under section 4(c)(8) of the Bank

Holding Company Act (12 U.S.C.

1843(c)(8)) and § 225.21(a) of Regulation

Y (12 CFR 225.21(a)) to commence or to

Governors. Interested persons may

express their views in writing on the

question whether consummation of the

proposal can ‘‘reasonably be expected to

produce benefits to the public, such as

greater convenience, increased

competition, or gains in efficiency, that

outweigh possible adverse effects, such

as undue concentration of resources,

decreased or unfair competition,

conflicts of interests, or unsound

banking practices.’’ Any request for a

hearing on this question must be

accompanied by a statement of the

reasons a written presentation would

not suffice in lieu of a hearing,

identifying specifically any questions of

fact that are in dispute, summarizing the

evidence that would be presented at a

hearing, and indicating how the party

commenting would be aggrieved by

approval of the proposal.
