Indiana: Incorporation by Reference of Approved State Hazardous Waste Management Program

Under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended (RCRA), the EPA may grant States Final Authorization to operate their hazardous waste management programs in lieu of the Federal program. EPA uses part 272 of Title 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) to provide notice of the authorization status of State programs and to incorporate by reference those provisions of the State statutes and regulations that are part of the authorized State program. The purpose of this action is to codify Indiana's authorized hazardous waste program in 40 CFR part 272. This rule incorporates by reference provisions of Indiana's hazardous waste statutes and regulations and clarifies which of these provisions are authorized and federally enforceable. Unless adverse written comments are received during the comment period, the EPA's decision to incorporate by reference Indiana's authorized hazardous waste program will take effect as provided.
