[EPA-R01-UST-2022-0269; FRL-9580-01-R1]


Connecticut: Final Approval of State Underground Storage Tank 
Program Revisions, Codification, and Incorporation by Reference

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA 
or Act), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to 
approve revisions to the State of Connecticut's Underground Storage 
Tank (UST) program submitted by the Connecticut Department of Energy 
and Environmental Protection (CT DEEP). This action is based on EPA's 
determination that these revisions satisfy all requirements needed for 
program approval. This action also proposes to codify EPA's approval of 
Connecticut's State program and to incorporate by reference those 
provisions of the State regulations that we have determined meet the 
requirements for approval. The provisions will be subject to EPA's 
inspection and enforcement authorities under sections 9005 and 9006 of 
RCRA subtitle I and other applicable statutory and regulatory 
provisions.
