Sec.  255.41  Procedure for revision.



    The procedure for revising regional identifications or agency 

responsibilities should be specified by the notification.

    (a) The State should review and, if appropriate, revise or modify 

the identification of regions and the responsibilities of local and 

regional agencies at intervals of less than 3 years. Review and 

modification should include, but not be limited to, the following areas:

    (1) Whether new regions should be identified, or whether present 

boundaries should be modified.

    (2) Whether responsibilities of an agency should be expanded or 

reduced due to changes in the needs for solid waste functions in the 

region.

    (b) Revisions or adjustments to the State plan may require minor 

boundary or agency changes from time to time. The appropriate EPA 

Regional Administrator should be notified of such revisions by the State 

solid waste agency.

    (c) Major revisions or adjustments in agencies or boundaries should 

be made in consultation with local officials and be subject to the same 

procedures used in the original identification process. Notification of 

such revisions should be submitted with State plan updates.
