Texas; Full Program Adequacy Determination of State Municipal Solid Waste Permit Program

Section 4005(c)(1)(B) of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), as amended by the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments (HSWA) of 1984, requires States to develop and implement permit programs to ensure that municipal solid waste landfills (MSWLFs) which may receive household hazardous waste or conditionally exempt small quantity generator waste, comply with the revised Federal MSWLF Criteria (40 CFR part 258). Section 4005(c)(1)(C)of RCRA requires the (EPA) to determine whether States have ``adequate'' permit programs for MSWLFs, but does not mandate issuance of a rule for such determinations. Texas applied for a determination of adequacy under section 4005 of RCRA. The EPA reviewed Texas' application and made a tentative determination subject to public review and comment, that Texas' MSWLF permit program is adequate to ensure compliance with the revised MSWLF criteria.
