Washington: Proposed Authorization of State Hazardous Waste 
Management Program Revisions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule; reopening of the comment period.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is reopening the 
comment period for a proposed rulemaking to authorize a revision to the 
State of Washington's federally authorized hazardous waste management 
program pursuant to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), 
as amended. The EPA has reviewed Washington's application, and we have 
determined that these changes satisfy all requirements needed to 
qualify for final authorization and are proposing to authorize the 
State's changes. EPA is reopening the public comment period until 
October 25, 2017.

DATES: This comment period is for the proposed rule published on July 
13, 2017 (82 FR 32305). All comments received on or before October 25, 
2017 will be entered into the public record and considered by the EPA 
before final action is taken on this proposed rule.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R10-
RCRA-2017-0285, at https://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online 
instructions for submitting comments. Once submitted, comments cannot 
be edited or removed from Regulations.gov. The EPA may publish any 
comment received to its public docket. Do not submit electronically any 
information you consider to be Confidential Business Information (CBI) 
or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. 
Multimedia submissions (audio, video, etc.) must be accompanied by a 
written comment. The written comment is considered the official comment 
and should include discussion of all points you wish to make. The EPA 
will generally not consider comments or comment contents located 
outside of the primary submission (i.e. on the web, cloud, or other 
file sharing system). For additional submission methods, the full EPA 
public comment policy, information about CBI or multimedia submissions,
