Colorado: Final Approval of State Underground Storage Tank 
Program Revisions and Codification

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 Colorado's Underground Storage Tank 
(UST) Program submitted by the State. This action is based on the EPA's 
determination that the State's revisions satisfy all requirements for 
UST program approval. This action also proposes to codify Colorado's 
state program, as revised by Colorado and approved by the EPA, and to 
incorporate by reference the State regulations that we have determined 
meet the requirements for approval. The State's federally authorized 
and codified UST program, as revised pursuant to this action, will 
remain subject to the EPA's inspection and enforcement authorities 
under sections 9005 and 9006 of RCRA Subtitle I and other applicable 
statutory and regulatory provisions.
