Texas: Final Authorization of State 

Hazardous Waste Management 

Program Revisions 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The State of Texas has 

applied to EPA for final authorization of 

the changes to its hazardous waste 

program under the Resource 

Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). 

EPA proposes to grant final 

authorization to the State of Texas. In 

the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of 

this Federal Register, EPA is 

authorizing the changes by an 

immediate final rule. EPA did not make 

a proposal prior to the immediate final 

rule because we believe this action is 

not controversial and do not expect 

comments that oppose it. We have 

explained the reasons for this 

authorization in the preamble to the 

immediate final rule. Unless we get 

written comments which oppose this 

authorization during the comment 

period, the immediate final rule will 

become effective on the date it 

establishes, and we will not take further 

action on this proposal. If we receive 

comments that oppose this action, we 

will withdraw the immediate final rule 

and it will not take effect. We will then 

respond to public comments in a later 

final rule based on this proposal. You 

may not have another opportunity for 

comment. If you want to comment on 

this action, you must do so at this time. 

DATES: Send your written comments by 

June 12, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: Send written comments to 

Alima Patterson, Region 6, Regional 

Authorization Coordinator, (6PD–O), 

Multimedia Planning and Permitting 

Division, at the address shown below.
