Adequacy of New Hampshire Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Permit Program

This action approves a modification to New Hampshire's approved municipal solid waste landfill (MSWLF) program. The approved modification allows the State to issue Research, Development, and Demonstration (RD&D) Permits to owners and operators of MSWLF in accordance with its State law. On March 22, 2004, EPA issued final regulations allowing research, development, and demonstration (RD&D) permits to be issued to certain municipal solid waste landfills by approved states. On June 28, 2010 New Hampshire submitted an application to EPA Region 1 seeking Federal approval of its RD&D requirements. After thorough review EPA Region 1 is determining that New Hampshire's RD&D permit requirements are adequate through this direct final action.
