Idaho: Proposed Authorization of State Hazardous Waste Management 
Program Revision Extension of Comment Period

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule; extension of comment period.

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

SUMMARY: In the Federal Register of September 30, 2008, EPA announced 
that Idaho has applied to EPA for final authorization of certain 
changes to its hazardous waste program under the Resource Conservation 
and Recovery Act, as amended (RCRA). EPA has reviewed Idaho's 
application, has preliminarily determined that these changes satisfy 
all requirements needed to qualify for final authorization, and is 
proposing to authorize the State's changes. This is an administrative 
extension of the public comment period for this proposed rule. The 
public comment period for this proposed rule has been extended from 
October 30, 2008 to November 20, 2008.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be submitted on or before 
November 20, 2008.

RCRA-2008-0588, by one of the following methods:

    Instructions: Direct your comments to Docket ID No. EPA-R10-RCRA-
2008-0588. EPA's policy is that all comments received will be included 
in the public docket without change and may be made available online at 
http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information 
provided, unless the comment includes information claimed to be 
Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information whose 
disclosure is restricted by statute. Do not submit information that you 
consider to be CBI or otherwise protected through http://
www.regulations.gov, or e-mail. The http://www.regulations.gov Web site 
is an ``anonymous access'' system, which means EPA will not know your 
identity or contact information unless you provide it in the body of 
your comment. If you send an e-mail comment directly to EPA without 
going through http://www.regulations.gov, your e-mail address will be 
automatically captured and included as part of the comment that is 
placed in the public docket and made available on the Internet. If you 
submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you include your name 
and other contact information in the body of your comment and with any 
disk or CD-ROM you submit. If EPA cannot read your comment due to 
technical difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA 
may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic files should avoid 
the use of special characters or any form of encryption, and be free of 
any defects or viruses. For additional information about EPA's public 
docket, visit the EPA Docket Center homepage at http://www.epa.gov/
