Sec.  256.05  Annual work program.



    (a) The annual work program submitted for financial assistance under 

section 4008(a)(1) and described in the grant regulations (40 CFR part 

35) shall be reviewed by the Administrator in order to determine whether 

the State plan is being implemented by the State.

    (b) The Administrator and the State shall agree on the contents of 

the annual work program. The Administrator will consider State 

initiatives and priorities, in light of the goals of the Act, in 

determining annual work programs for each State. The annual work program 

represents a State's obligation incurred by acceptance of financial 

assistance.

    (c) Annual guidance for the development of State work programs will 

be issued by EPA. While this guidance will establish annual national 

priorities, flexibility will be provided in order to accommodate 

differing State priorities.

    (d) The following documents developed under the State plan shall be 

included by reference in the annual work program:

    (1) Substate solid waste management plans,

    (2) Plans for the development of facilities and services, including 

hazardous waste management facilities and services, and

    (3) Evidence of actions or steps taken to close or upgrade open 

dumps.

    (e) The annual work program shall allocate the distribution of 

Federal funds to agencies responsible for the development and 

implementation of the State plan.
