{"abstract":"The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or the Agency) is taking Direct Final action on a number of technical changes that correct or clarify several parts of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) hazardous waste regulations that relate to hazardous waste identification, manifesting, the hazardous waste generator requirements, standards for owners and operators of hazardous waste treatment, storage and disposal facilities, standards for the management of specific types of hazardous waste and specific types of hazardous waste management facilities, the land disposal restrictions program, and the hazardous waste permit program. These changes correct existing errors in the hazardous waste regulations that have occurred over time in numerous final rules published in the Federal Register, such as typographical errors, incorrect or outdated citations, and omissions. Some of the corrections are necessary to make conforming changes to all appropriate parts of the RCRA hazardous waste regulations for new rules that have since been promulgated. In addition, these changes clarify existing parts of the hazardous waste regulatory program and update references to Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations that have changed since the publication of various RCRA hazardous waste final rules.","action":"Direct final rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY","name":"Environmental Protection Agency","id":145,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/environmental-protection-agency","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/145","parent_id":null,"slug":"environmental-protection-agency"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2010/03/18/2010-5700.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":260,"title":40},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":261,"title":40},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":262,"title":40},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":263,"title":40},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":264,"title":40},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":265,"title":40},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":266,"title":40},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":268,"title":40},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":270,"title":40}],"citation":"75 FR 12989","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2010-05-03","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"This Direct Final Rule is effective on June 16, 2010 without further notice unless EPA receives adverse comments by May 3, 2010.
