Abstract
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts has applied for Final Authorization of a revision to its hazardous waste program under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). Massachusetts' revision addresses the Satellite Accumulation Rule contained in Non-HSWA Cluster I. This optional rule was promulgated on December 20, 1984 and amended the hazardous waste rules to allow accumulation of waste at satellite areas at the generator's facility. The specific provisions relating to the Satellite Accumulation Rule for which Massachusetts is seeking authorization are listed in the table in section B of this document. The EPA has reviewed The Commonwealth of Massachusetts' application and determined that its hazardous waste program revisions relating to the Satellite Accumulation Rule satisfy all of the requirements necessary to qualify for final authorization. Unless adverse written comments are received during the review and comment period, EPA's decision to authorize Massachusetts' hazardous waste program revision will take effect as provided below.
