Abstract
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to authorize changes to Florida's hazardous waste program under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). These changes were outlined in an application to the EPA and correspond to certain Federal rules promulgated between July 1, 1987 through June 30, 2020. The EPA reviewed Florida's application and has determined that these changes satisfy all requirements needed to qualify for final authorization. Therefore, in the "Rules and Regulations" section of this Federal Register, we are authorizing Florida for these changes as a direct final action without a prior proposed rule. If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action on this proposed rule.

Florida: Final Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management
Program Revisions
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to
authorize changes to Florida's hazardous waste program under the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). These changes were
outlined in an application to the EPA and correspond to certain Federal
rules promulgated between July 1, 1987 through June 30, 2020. The EPA
reviewed Florida's application and has determined that these changes
satisfy all requirements needed to qualify for final authorization.
Therefore, in the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal
Register, we are authorizing Florida for these changes as a direct
final action without a prior proposed rule. If we receive no adverse
comment, we will not take further action on this proposed rule.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document proposes to act on Florida's
changes to its hazardous waste management program under the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), as amended. We have published a
direct final action authorizing these changes in the ``Rules and
Regulations'' section of this issue of the Federal Register because we
view this as a noncontroversial action and anticipate no adverse
comment. We have explained our reasons for this action in the preamble
to the direct final action.
If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action
on this proposed rule. If we receive adverse comment, we will withdraw
the direct final action and it will not take effect. We would then
address all public comments in a subsequent final action and base any
further decision on the authorization of the State program changes
after considering all comments received during the comment period.
We do not intend to institute a second comment period on this
action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time.
