Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 107 / Monday, June 7, 2021 / Proposed Rules
report. The EPAs written approval of the completion report shall be considered approval of the modified treatability envelope pursuant to Condition 1b.
C. Miscellaneous Changes and Updates The EPA is also proposing to make several minor changes to address typographical errors, amend section numbering to reflect addition of a new condition, and to amend selected references to treatability envelopes in Tables C1 and C2 that may be updated to accommodate WTP DFLAW
effluent waste stream to include the phrase as amended. The EPA is also correcting certain references to Tables C1 and C2 to properly characterize their function as defining inorganic and organic treatability envelope data.

IV. When would the EPA finalize the proposed delisting modification?
40 CFR 260.20c requires the EPA to provide notice and an opportunity for comment before granting or denying a final exclusion. Thus, the EPA will not make a final decision or grant an exclusion until it has addressed all timely public comments on todays proposal, including any at public hearings.
Since this proposed rule is limited to technical amendments that apply to future activities, and is limited to a specific process and waste stream at the Hanford Site, the regulated community does not need a six-month period to come into compliance in accordance with section 3010b of RCRA, as amended by the Federal Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984.
V. How will this Action affect states?
Because the EPA is proposing to issue this exclusion under the federal RCRA
delisting regulations, only states subject to federal RCRA delisting provisions will be affected. This exclusion may not be effective in states which have received authorization from the EPA to make their own delisting decisions.
The EPA allows states to impose their own non-RCRA regulatory requirements that are more stringent than the EPAs, under section 3009 of RCRA. These more stringent requirements may include a provision that prohibits a federally issued exclusion from taking effect in the state. We urge petitioners to contact their state regulatory authorities to establish the status of their wastes under their respective state laws.
The EPA has also authorized some states to administer a delisting program in place of the federal program, that is, to make state delisting decisions.

Therefore, this exclusion does not apply in those authorized states. If the Petitioner manages the waste in any state with delisting authorization, the Petitioner must obtain delisting authorization or other determination from the receiving state before it can manage the waste as nonhazardous in that state.
While Washington State has received final authorization to implement most of its dangerous waste program regulations in lieu of the federal program, including the listing and identification of listed waste codes associated with the petitioned wastes, it has not been authorized to implement its delisting regulations program in lieu of the federal program. The EPA notes that Washington State has provisions in the Washington Administrative Code WAC 1733039103 similar to the federal provisions upon which this delisting is based. These provisions are in effect as a matter of state law. Thus, the Petitioner must seek approval from Washington State at the state level in addition to this proposed delisting.
