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. You can examine copies of the
