        <RULE_TITLE>Liquids in Landfills: Proposed Rulemaking to Grant a Petition</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On November 18, 1992, the Agency promulgated a final rule on liquids in landfills. That rule satisfied a statutory requirement in the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) as amended by the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984 regarding the landfill disposal of containerized liquids. Specifically, the statute required EPA to issue a rule that prohibited the disposal in hazardous waste landfills of liquids that have been absorbed in materials that biodegrade. This proposed rulemaking, which provides increased flexibility to the regulated community, would add an additional test to demonstrate that a sorbent is non-biodegradable. ^PEPA is promulgating this amendment as a direct final rule without prior proposal because EPA views this as minor technical modification that merely broadens the scope of the testing. A detailed rationale for the amendment is set forth in the direct final rule. If no adverse comments are received in response to that direct final rule, no further activity is contemplated in relation to this propose rule. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on the proposed rule. EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action.]]></ABSTRACT>
