29712 Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 106 / Friday, June 1, 2001 / Rules and Regulations

VII. Regulatory Assessment

Requirements

This final rule establishes a tolerance

under FFDCA section 408(d) in

response to a petition submitted to the

Agency. The Office of Management and

Budget (OMB) has exempted these types

of actions from review under Executive

Order 12866, entitled Regulatory

Planning and Review (58 FR 51735,

October 4, 1993). This final rule does

not contain any information collections

subject to OMB approval under the

Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), 44

U.S.C. 3501 et seq., or impose any

enforceable duty or contain any

unfunded mandate as described under

Title II of the Unfunded Mandates

Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Public

Law 104–4). Nor does it require any

special considerations under Executive

Order 12898, entitled Federal Actions to

Address Environmental Justice in

Minority Populations and Low-Income

Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16,

1994); or OMB review or any Agency

action under Executive Order 13045,

entitled Protection of Children from

Environmental Health Risks and Safety

Risks (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997).

This action does not involve any

technical standards that would require

Agency consideration of voluntary

consensus standards pursuant to section

12(d) of the National Technology

Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995

(NTTAA), Public Law 104–113, section

12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note). Since

tolerances and exemptions that are

established on the basis of a petition

under FFDCA section 408(d), such as

the tolerance in this final rule, do not

require the issuance of a proposed rule,

the requirements of the Regulatory

Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et

seq.) do not apply. In addition, the

Agency has determined that this action

will not have a substantial direct effect

on States, on the relationship between

the national government and the States,

or on the distribution of power and

responsibilities among the various

levels of government, as specified in

Executive Order 13132, entitled

Federalism(64 FR 43255, August 10,

1999). Executive Order 13132 requires

EPA to develop an accountable process

to ensure ‘‘meaningful and timely input

by State and local officials in the

development of regulatory policies that

have federalism implications.’’ ‘‘Policies

that have federalism implications’’ is

defined in the Executive Order to

include regulations that have

‘‘substantial direct effects on the States,

on the relationship between the national

government and the States, or on the

distribution of power and

responsibilities among the various

levels of government.’’ This final rule

directly regulates growers, food

processors, food handlers and food

retailers, not States. This action does not

alter the relationships or distribution of

power and responsibilities established

by Congress in the preemption

provisions of FFDCA section 408(n)(4).

For these same reasons, the Agency has

determined that this rule does not have

any tribal implications as described in

Executive Order 13175, entitled

Consultation and Coordination with

Indian Tribal Governments (65 FR

67249, November 6, 2000). Executive

Order 13175, requires EPA to develop

an accountable process to ensure

meaningful and timely input by tribal

officials in the development of

regulatory policies that have tribal

implications. Policies that have tribal

implications is defined in the Executive

Order to include regulations that have

substantial direct effects on one or more

Indian Tribes, on the relationship

between the Federal government and

the Indian tribes, or on the distribution

of power and responsibilities between

the Federal government and Indian

tribes. This rule will not have

substantial direct effects on tribal

governments, on the relationship

between the Federal government and

Indian tribes, as specified in Executive

Order 13175. Thus, Executive Order

13175 does not apply to this rule.

VIII. Submission to Congress and the

Comptroller General

The Congressional Review Act, 5

U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the Small

Business Regulatory Enforcement

Fairness Act of 1996, generally provides

that before a rule may take effect, the

agency promulgating the rule must

submit a rule report, which includes a

copy of the rule, to each House of the

Congress and to the Comptroller General

of the United States. EPA will submit a

report containing this rule and other

required information to the U.S. Senate,

the U.S. House of Representatives, and

the Comptroller General of the United

States prior to publication of this final

rule in the Federal Register. This final

rule is not a ‘‘major rule’’ as defined by

5 U.S.C. 804(2).

[FRL–6938–8]

Maryland: Final Authorization of State

Hazardous Waste Management

Program Revisions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Immediate final rule.

SUMMARY: The State of Maryland (State)

has applied to EPA for Final

authorization of changes to its

hazardous waste program under the

Resource Conservation and Recovery

Act (RCRA). EPA has determined that

these changes satisfy all requirements

needed to qualify for Final

authorization, and is authorizing the

State’s changes through this immediate

final action. EPA is publishing this rule

to authorize the changes without a prior

proposal because we view this as a

routine program change and do not

expect comments that oppose it. Unless

we get written comments which oppose

this authorization during the comment

period, the decision to authorize

Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 106 / Friday, June 1, 2001 / Rules and Regulations 29713

Maryland’s changes to its hazardous

waste program will take effect as

provided below. If we get comments

that oppose this action, or portions

thereof, we will publish a document in

the Federal Register withdrawing this

rule, or portions thereof, before it takes

effect, and a separate document in the

proposed rules section of this Federal

Register will serve as a proposal to

authorize the changes.

DATES: This Final authorization will

become effective on July 31, 2001,

unless EPA receives adverse written

comment by July 2, 2001. If EPA

receives such comment, it will publish

a timely withdrawal of this immediate

final rule in the Federal Register and

inform the public that this authorization

will not take effect.

ADDRESSES: Send written comments to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Why Are Revisions to State

Programs Necessary?

States which have received Final

authorization from EPA under RCRA

section 3006(b), 42 U.S.C. 6926(b), must

maintain a hazardous waste program

that is equivalent to, consistent with,

and no less stringent than the Federal

program. As the Federal program

changes, States must change their

programs and ask EPA to authorize the

changes. Changes to State programs may

be necessary when Federal or State

statutory or regulatory authority is

modified or when certain other changes

occur. Most commonly, States must

change their programs because of

changes to EPA’s regulations in 40 Code

of Federal Regulations (CFR) parts 124,

260 through 266, 268, 270, 273 and 279.

B. What Decisions Have We Made in

This Rule?

EPA concludes that Maryland’s

application to revise its authorized

program meets all of the statutory and

regulatory requirements established by

RCRA. Therefore, we grant Maryland

Final authorization to operate its

hazardous waste program with the

changes described in the authorization

application. Maryland has responsibility

for permitting treatment, storage, and

disposal facilities (TSDFs) within its

borders and for carrying out the aspects

of the RCRA program described in its

revised program application, subject to

the limitations of the Hazardous and

Solid Waste Amendments of 1984

(HSWA). New Federal requirements and

prohibitions imposed by Federal

regulations that EPA promulgates under

the authority of HSWA take effect in

authorized States before they are

authorized for the requirements. Thus,

EPA will implement those requirements

and prohibitions in Maryland, including

issuing permits, until the State is

granted authorization to do so.

C. What Is the Effect of Today’s

Authorization Decision?

The effect of this decision is that a

facility in Maryland subject to RCRA

will have to comply with the authorized

State requirements instead of the

equivalent Federal requirements in

order to comply with RCRA. Maryland

has enforcement responsibilities under

its state hazardous waste program for

violations of such program, but EPA

retains authority under RCRA sections

3007, 3008, 3013, and 7003, which

include, among others, authority to:

• Do inspections, and require

monitoring, tests, analyses or reports;

• Enforce RCRA requirements and

suspend or revoke permits; and

• Take enforcement actions regardless

of whether the State has taken its own

actions.

This action does not impose

additional requirements on the

regulated community because the

regulations for which Maryland is being

authorized by today’s action are already

effective, and are not changed by today’s

action.

D. Why Wasn’t There a Proposed Rule

Before Today’s Rule?

EPA did not publish a proposal before

today’s rule because we view this as a

routine program change and do not

expect comments that oppose this

approval. We are providing an

opportunity for public comment now. In

addition to this rule, in the proposed

rules section of today’s Federal Register

we are publishing a separate document

that proposes to authorize the State

program changes. If EPA receives

comments which oppose this

authorization, or portion(s) thereof, that

document will serve as a proposal to

authorize such changes.

E. What Happens if EPA Receives

Comments That Oppose This Action?

If EPA receives comments that oppose

this authorization, we will withdraw

this rule by publishing a document in

the Federal Register before the rule

becomes effective. EPA will base any

further decision on the authorization of

the State’s program changes on the

proposal mentioned in the previous

paragraph. We will then address all

public comments in a later final rule.

You may not have another opportunity

to comment. If you want to comment on

this authorization, you must do so at

this time.

If EPA receives comments that oppose

only the authorization of a particular

change to the State hazardous waste

program, we may withdraw that part of

this rule, but the authorization of the

program changes that the comments do

not oppose will become effective on the

date specified above. The Federal

Register withdrawal document will

specify which part of the authorization

will become effective, and which part is

being withdrawn.

F. What Has Maryland Previously Been

Authorized for?

Title 7, Subtitle 2 of the HealthEnvironmental Article of the Annotated

Code of Maryland, as amended through

1984, authorized the Department of

Health and Mental Hygiene (DHMH) to

‘‘adopt rules and regulations to carry out

the provisions of this subtitle’’ and to

‘‘administer and enforce this subtitle

and the rules, regulations, and orders

adopted or issued under this subtitle.’’

The DHMH promulgated regulations to

implement Subtitle 2 in Chapters

10.51.01 through 10.51.07 of the Code of

Maryland Regulations. The State

received Final authorization from EPA

to implement its base hazardous waste

program effective February 11, 1985 (50

FR 3511; January 25, 1985).

The statutory provisions concerning

hazardous waste management were

shifted without renumbering to the

newly created Environment Article of

the Annotated Code of Maryland in

1987. At that time, the responsibilities

for adopting rules and regulations, and

for administering and enforcing Subtitle

2, were transferred to the newly created

Maryland Department of the

Environment (MDE). Since Maryland’s

base program authorization, the State

29714 Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 106 / Friday, June 1, 2001 / Rules and Regulations

has made numerous changes to its

regulations. Most notably, in 1989 the

regulations were recodified in Chapters

26.13.01 through 26.13.10 of the Code of

Maryland Regulations with conforming

changes to internal references and some

renumbering of provisions in Chapters

26.13.02 and 26.13.05. MDE’s latest

regulatory revisions took effect on

October 16, 2000.

G. What Changes Are We Authorizing

With Today’s Action?

On December 21, 2000, Maryland

submitted a final, complete program

revision application seeking

authorization of its changes in

accordance with 40 CFR 271.21. EPA

Region III worked closely with the State

to develop the authorization package.

Therefore, EPA’s comments relative to

the State’s legal authority to carry out

aspects of the Federal program for

which the State is seeking authorization,

the scope and coverage of activities

regulated, and the State’s procedures,

including the criteria for permit

reviews, public participation and

enforcement capabilities, were

addressed before the submission of the

final application by the State. Maryland

also solicited public comments on its

proposed regulations before they were

adopted.

Maryland’s program revision

application includes statutory and

regulatory changes to the State’s

authorized hazardous waste program,

including the adoption of interim status

regulations, the adoption of changes to

the Federal hazardous waste regulations

addressed by selected Revision

Checklists listed in the following table,

and the adoption of State-initiated

changes. The State’s statutory references

are to the Environment Article, Title 7,

Subtitle 2 of the Annotated Code of

Maryland (1996 Repl. Vol., 1999 Cumul.

Supp.). The regulatory references are to

Title 26, Subtitle 13 of the Code of

Maryland Regulations (COMAR),

Chapters 01 through 07, and Chapter 10,

as amended effective October 16, 2000.

We now make an immediate final

decision, subject to receipt of written

comments that oppose this action, that

Maryland’s hazardous waste program

revision satisfies all of the requirements

necessary to qualify for Final

authorization. Therefore, we grant

Maryland Final authorization for the

following program changes:

2. State-Initiated Changes

Maryland’s program revision

application includes State-initiated

changes that are not directly related to

any of the Revision Checklists in the

previous table. All the State-initiated

changes are either (1) related to the

adoption of a provision at 26.13.01.05

that makes conforming and clarification

changes to the State’s adoption by

reference of Federal regulations and

statutes, (2) related to general

renumbering with conforming changes

that do not impact equivalency, or (3)

related to the extension of the maximum

duration of a permit from three to five

years. The State-initiated changes

include the following provisions of the

State’s program: COMAR 26.13.01.05B,

26.13.01.05C, 26.13.07.02E,

26.13.07.02–1 through 26.13.07.02–10,

and 26.13.07.06A.

H. Where Are the Revised State Rules

Different From the Federal Rules?

EPA considers several Maryland

requirements to be more stringent than

the Federal requirements. These

requirements are part of the State’s

authorized program and are Federally

enforceable. The specific more stringent

provisions are noted in the above table

and in Maryland’s authorization

application and include, but are not

limited to, the following:

1. Unlike the Federal program,

Maryland does not have reduced

requirements for generators who

generate 100 kg to 1000 kg of hazardous

waste in a calendar month. In addition,

the State has more stringent

requirements for generators using tanks

for accumulation.

2. Maryland subjects transporters of

recyclable materials utilized for

precious metal recovery to full

regulation as transporters under

COMAR 26.13.04.

3. Maryland does not allow the

financial test or corporate guarantee in

40 CFR 264.143(f), 264.145(f),

265.143(e), or 265.145(e) to be used to

establish financial assurance for closure

or post-closure care.

4. Maryland does not allow materials

contaminated with a waste identified

solely on the basis of ignitability to be

used for road treatment or dust

suppression unlike the Federal program.

5. Maryland has a complete ban on

the disposal of bulk or noncontainerized waste containing free

liquids in landfills.

6. Maryland prohibits underground

injection of hazardous waste at COMAR

26.13.05.19 and 26.13.06.27.

7. Maryland provides for two

classifications of permit modifications

rather than the three categories in the

Federal regulations. For similar levels of

permit modifications, the State requires

a higher degree of public involvement

and agency approval.

A number of Maryland’s regulations

are not being authorized by today’s

actions. A full description of the State’s

provisions that MDE is not being

authorized for can be found in the

State’s application. Some of these

provisions include, but are not limited

to, the following:

1. Maryland has adopted rules

addressing the wood preserving listings

(F032, F034, and F035) at COMAR

26.13.02.04A(9), .16A, .16C, .23, and

.24, as well as the requirements for drip

pads at COMAR 26.13.01.03B(16–1);

26.13.03.05E(1)(b)(iii) & .05E(1)(l);

26.13.05.10A(5) & .17–1 through 17–4;

26.13.06.26; and 26.13.07.02–11.

However, Maryland is not seeking

authorization at this time for these

regulations.

2. Maryland has adopted rules

addressing the dioxin listings (F020,

F021, F022, F023, F026, F027, and

F028) at COMAR 26.13.02.05E(6)(a),

.15E(1), .16A, .19, .23, and .24, as well

as special requirements for facilities

handling these wastes at COMAR

26.13.05.09H(5), .11K, .12J, .13N, .14P &

.16F(1)(b); COMAR 26.13.06.01A(6),

.23C & .24B(1); and COMAR

26.13.07.02–4B(17), .02–5B(10), .02–

7B(7) & .02–8B(8). Again, Maryland is

not seeking authorization at this time for

these regulations.

Maryland’s regulations contain

several requirements that go beyond the

scope of the Federal program, and thus

are not part of the program being

authorized by today’s action. EPA

cannot enforce these requirements

which are broader in scope, although

compliance with these provisions is

required by Maryland law. Such

provisions include, but are not limited

to the following:

1. Maryland has chosen to specifically

list as hazardous waste materials that

are not listed in the Federal regulations.

These wastes are identified with the

following waste codes: K067, K068,

K122, K133, K134, K991, K992, K993,

K994, K995, K996, K997, K998, K999,

M001, MT01, MX01, MD01, and MD02.

2. Maryland does not have an analog

to the Federal provision at 40 CFR

261.6(a)(3)(vii) which exempts from

regulation coke and coal tar waste

(K087) from the iron and steel industries

when it is recycled.

3. The State operates a certification

program for hazardous waste haulers,

drivers domiciled in Maryland, and

vehicles.

I. Who Handles Permits After the

Authorization Takes Effect?

After authorization, Maryland will

issue permits covering all the provisions

for which it is authorized and will

administer the permits it issues. EPA

will continue to administer any RCRA

hazardous waste permits or portions of

permits which we issued prior to the

effective date of this authorization until

the timing and process for effective

transfer to the State are mutually agreed

upon. Until such time as formal transfer

of EPA permit responsibility to the State

occurs and EPA terminates its permit,

EPA and the State agree to coordinate

the administration of permits in order to

maintain consistency. We will not issue

any more new permits or new portions

of permits for the provisions listed in

the Chart above after the effective date

of this authorization. EPA will continue

to implement and issue permits for

HSWA requirements for which

Maryland is not yet authorized.

29722 Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 106 / Friday, June 1, 2001 / Rules and Regulations

J. How Does Today’s Action Affect

Indian Country (18 U.S.C. 115) in

Maryland?

Maryland is not seeking authority to

operate the program on Indian lands,

since there are no Federally-recognized

Indian Lands in the State.

K. What Is Codification and Is EPA

Codifying Maryland’s Hazardous Waste

Program as Authorized in This Rule?

Codification is the process of placing

the State’s statutes and regulations that

comprise the State’s authorized

hazardous waste program into the Code

of Federal Regulations. We do this by

referencing the authorized State rules in

40 CFR part 272. We reserve the

amendment of 40 CFR 272, subpart V,

for this authorization of Maryland’s

program changes until a later date.

L. Administrative Requirements

The Office of Management and Budget

has exempted this action from the

requirements of Executive Order 12866

(58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), and,

therefore, this action is not subject to

review by OMB. This action authorizes

state requirements for the purpose of

RCRA 3006 and imposes no additional

requirements beyond those imposed by

state law. Accordingly, I certify that this

action will not have a significant

economic impact on a substantial

number of small entities under the

Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601

et seq.). Because this action authorizes

pre-existing requirements under state

law and does not impose any additional

enforceable duty beyond that required

by state law, it does not contain any

unfunded mandate or significantly or

uniquely affect small governments, as

described in the Unfunded Mandates

Reform Act of 1995 (Public Law 104–4).

For the same reason, this action also

does not significantly or uniquely affect

the communities of tribal governments,

as specified by Executive Order 13084

(63 FR 27655, May 10, 1998). This

action will not have substantial direct

effects on the States, on the relationship

between the national government and

the States, or on the distribution of

power and responsibilities among the

various levels of government, as

specified in Executive Order 13132 (64

FR 43255, August 10, 1999), because it

merely authorizes state requirements as

part of the State RCRA hazardous waste

program without altering the

relationship or the distribution of power

and responsibilities established by

RCRA. This action also is not subject to

Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885,

April 23, 1997), because it is not

economically significant and it does not

make decisions based on environmental

health or safety risks.

Under RCRA 3006(b), EPA grants a

State’s application for authorization as

long as the State meets the criteria

required by RCRA. It would thus be

inconsistent with applicable law for

EPA, when it reviews a State

authorization application, to require the

use of any particular voluntary

consensus standard in place of another

standard that otherwise satisfies the

requirements of RCRA. Thus, the

requirements of section 12(d) of the

National Technology Transfer and

Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C.

272 note) do not apply. As required by

section 3 of Executive Order 12988 (61

F.R. 4729, February 7, 1996), in issuing

this rule, EPA has taken the necessary

steps to eliminate drafting errors and

ambiguity, minimize potential litigation,

and provide a clear legal standard for

affected conduct. EPA has complied

with Executive Order 12630 (53 F.R.

8859, March 15, 1988) by examining the

takings implications of the rule in

accordance with the Attorney General’s

‘‘Supplemental Guidelines for the

Evaluation of Risk and Avoidance of

Unanticipated Takings’’ issued under

the executive order. This rule does not

impose an information collection

burden under the provisions of the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44

U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).

The Congressional Review Act, 5

U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the Small

Business Regulatory Enforcement

Fairness Act of 1996, generally provides

that before a rule may take effect, the

agency promulgating the rule must

submit a rule report, which includes a

copy of the rule, to each House of the

Congress and to the Comptroller General

of the United States. EPA will submit a

report containing this document and

other required information to the U.S.

Senate, the U.S. House of

Representatives, and the Comptroller

General of the United States prior to

publication in the Federal Register. A

major rule cannot take effect until 60

days after it is published in the Federal

Register. This action is not a ‘‘major

rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2). This

action will be effective July 31, 2001.

[WT Docket No. 99–327, FCC 01–151]

24 GHz Service; Licensing and

Operation

AGENCY: Federal Communications

Commission.

ACTION: Final rule; petitions for

reconsideration.

SUMMARY: This document responds to

two petitions for reconsideration of a

previous decision to license the 24 GHz

band by Economic Area (EA). Both

petitions asked us to consider licensing

the 24.25–24.45 GHz and 25.05–25.25

GHz band (24 GHz band) by smaller

geographic areas, such as Metropolitan

Statistical Areas (MSA) and Rural

Statistical Areas (RSA). In this

document we deny these petitions

because we believe that licensing the 24

GHz band by EA not only offers

economies of scale, but also serves a

wider range of entities, including both

large and small service providers. We

further believe that our adoption of a

three-tiered approach to bidding credits

will enable small entities to participate

in the auction. Also, we believe that our

partitioning and disaggregation rules

will further assist small and rural

entities. This document terminates this

proceeding.
