  • 2024-28140 — Nebraska: Final Approval of State Underground Storage Tank Program Revisions, Codification, and Incorporation by Reference
    Type:Rule
    Citation:89 FR 97550
    Reading Time:about 35 minutes

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has approved revisions to Nebraska's Underground Storage Tank (UST) program under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. These revisions ensure that Nebraska's program remains as strict as federal standards and will now be federally enforceable, though they don't add new requirements for the state's regulated community. The approval process involved Nebraska submitting a comprehensive application detailing its program and enforcement mechanisms. The revised program will become effective on February 7, 2025, unless adverse comments are submitted by January 8, 2025. If any opposing comments are received, the EPA may withdraw the rule to address those concerns.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA has said yes to Nebraska’s new rules about how people keep gas tanks underground, making sure they’re just as safe as the country's main rules. If nobody complains by January 8, these rules will be used starting February 7 next year, but if someone finds a problem, they will look at it again.

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has approved changes to Indiana's Underground Storage Tank (UST) program, ensuring it aligns with federal requirements. These revisions, which satisfy federal standards, include both more stringent state measures and broader state coverage. Indiana's UST regulations are now enforceable at the federal level, though certain state-specific provisions are implemented independently. The action also clarifies that these changes do not affect areas recognized as Indian country.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA has agreed that Indiana's new rules for keeping underground tanks safe and not leaking are good and match national rules, but these rules don't apply to land where Native American tribes live.

  • 2020-24240 — Arkansas: Final Approval of State Underground Storage Tank Program Revisions and Incorporation by Reference
    Type:Rule
    Citation:86 FR 977
    Reading Time:about 30 minutes

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has given final approval to revisions of Arkansas's Underground Storage Tank (UST) program. This approval means that Arkansas's UST program meets federal requirements and regulations, making it enforceable by the EPA. The EPA codified this approval to enhance public understanding of the program and ensure that state-approved regulations align with federal standards. However, certain provisions of Arkansas’s UST program, which are broader in scope than federal requirements, are not federally enforceable.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA has checked and approved Arkansas's way of managing underground tanks that might leak dangerous stuff. This means they agree it follows the important rules, but Arkansas has some extra rules that only Arkansas cares about, not the whole country.
