[EPA-R03-RCRA-2014-0407; FRL-9965-86-Region 3]


Delaware: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management 
Program Revisions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: Delaware has applied to the United States Environmental 
Protection Agency (EPA) for final authorization of revisions to its 
hazardous waste program under the Resource Conservation and Recovery 
Act (RCRA). EPA proposes to grant final authorization to Delaware. In 
the Rules and Regulations section of this issue of the Federal 
Register, EPA is authorizing the revisions by a direct final rule. We 
have explained the reasons for this authorization in the preamble to 
the direct final rule. Unless EPA receives written comments that oppose 
this authorization during the comment period, the direct final rule 
will become effective on the date it establishes, and EPA will not take 
further action on this proposal.

DATES: Send your written comments by September 11, 2017.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R03-
RCRA-2014-0407, at http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online 
instructions for submitting comments. Once submitted, comments cannot 
be edited or removed from 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 guidance on making effective comments, please visit http://www2.epa.gov/dockets/commenting-epa-dockets.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of 
this issue of the Federal Register, EPA is authorizing the revisions by 
a direct final rule. EPA did not make a proposal prior to the direct 
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 of the direct final rule. Unless EPA 
receives adverse written comments that oppose this authorization during 
the comment period, the direct final

[[Page 37397]]

rule will become effective on the date it establishes, and EPA will not 
take further action on this proposal. If EPA receives comments that 
oppose this action, we will withdraw the Direct Final Rule, and it will 
not take effect. EPA will then respond to public comments in a later 
final rule based on this proposal and after consideration of all 
comments. You may not have another opportunity for comment. If you want 
to comment on this action, you must do so at this time. For additional 
information, please see the direct final rule published in the ``Rules 
and Regulations'' section of this issue of the Federal Register.

    Dated: July 27, 2017.

Acting Regional Administrator, U.S. EPA Region III.
