AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: EPA Region 1 proposes to approve New Hampshire's modification
of its approved Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Program. 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Rules section of this Federal
Register, EPA is approving New Hampshire's Research Development and
Demonstration (RD&D) permit program through a direct final rule without
prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial
action and anticipates no adverse comments to this action. Unless we
get written adverse comments which oppose this approval during the
comment period, the direct final rule will become effective on the date
it establishes, and we will not take further action on this proposal.
If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be
withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a
subsequent final rule. EPA will not institute a second comment period
on this action. Any parties interested in commenting on this action
should do so at this time. For additional information, see the direct
rule which is located in the Rules section of this Federal Register.
Dated: August 16, 2010.

Acting Regional Administrator, EPA New England, Region 1.
