[EPA-R04-RCRA-2014-0710; FRL-9921-91-Region 4]

Georgia: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management 
Program Revisions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: Georgia has applied to the Environmental Protection Agency 
(EPA) for final authorization of changes to its hazardous waste program 
under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). These changes 
correspond to certain Federal rules promulgated between July 1, 2007 
and June 30, 2011 (also known as RCRA Clusters XVIII through XXI). With 
this proposed rule, EPA is proposing to grant final authorization to 
Georgia for these changes.

DATES: Comments must be received in writing by February 25, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Along with this proposed rule, EPA is 
publishing an immediate final rule in the ``Rules and Regulations'' 
section of today's Federal Register pursuant to which EPA is 
authorizing these changes. EPA did not issue a proposed rule before 
today because EPA believes this action is not controversial and does 
not expect comments that oppose it. EPA has explained the reasons for 
this authorization in the direct final rule. Unless EPA receives 
written comments that oppose this authorization during the comment 
period, the direct final rule in today's Federal Register 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, EPA 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 proposed rule. You may not have another opportunity to 
comment on these State program changes. If you want to comment on this 
action, you must do so at this time. For additional information, please 
see the immediate final rule published in the ``Rules and Regulations'' 
section of today's Federal Register.

    Dated: January 13, 2015.

Regional Administrator Region 4.
