## Abstract

In Federal Register documents of February 3, 1993 and March 31, 1994, the Commonwealth of Virginia received Federal determinations of partial program adequacy for its Municipal Solid Waste Landfill permit program under section 4005 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). This section requires states to develop and implement permit programs that ensure that Municipal Solid Waste Landfills (MSWLF) which may receive hazardous household waste or small quantity generator waste are obligated to comply with the revised Federal MSWLF Criteria. Initially, Virginia submitted to EPA for approval relevant regulations that corresponded to all sections of 40 CFR part 258 except for Subpart G, Financial Assurance Criteria. On November 21, 2001, the Commonwealth of Virginia adopted financial assurance regulations for MSWLFs and on January 21, 2003 submitted these regulations to EPA for approval. Subject to the opportunity for public review and comment, this notice approves Virginia's financial assurance regulations.
