Hawaii: Proposed Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management Program Revisions

Hawaii has applied to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for final authorization of certain changes to its hazardous waste program under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended (RCRA). These changes correspond to certain federal rules promulgated between May 26, 1998 and June 30, 2016 (also known as RCRA Checklist 167 and Clusters IX through XXIV) plus several changes initiated by the State. EPA has reviewed Hawaii's application with regards to federal requirements and is proposing to authorize the changes. The EPA seeks public comment prior to taking final action.
