Residential, Commercial, and Institutional Solid Waste
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Direct Final Rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency is revising Guidelines for
the Storage and Collection of Residential, Commercial, and
Institutional Solid Waste to incorporate by reference new voluntary
consensus standards from the American National Standards Institute
(ANSI). We are making these revisions in response to a petition for
rulemaking from the Waste Equipment Technology Association who
requested that we update the references to ANSI standards. This
revision assures that the Guidelines include references to the most
current national safety standards.
DATES: This final action will become effective on March 17, 2000 unless
EPA receives adverse comment by January 18, 2000. If we receive adverse
comment, we will publish a withdrawal of this direct final rule in the
Federal Register informing the public that the rule will not take
effect. The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation
by reference of the publications listed in rule March 17, 2000.

K. Submission to Congress and General Accounting Office
I. Under What Authority is EPA Promulgating This Rule?
The Agency is promulgating this rule under the authority of
Sections 1008(a)(3), 2002(a)(1), and 4004(a) of the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), as amended, 42 USC 6907(a)(3),
6912(a)(1), and 6944(a).
II. What is the Background for This Rule?
EPA promulgated the Part 243--Guidelines for the Storage and
Collection of Residential, Commercial, and Institutional Solid Waste in
1976. In 40 CFR 243.202-1(d), these guidelines referenced safety
standards that had been established as consensus standards. The
reference was to American National Standards Institute (ANSI ) standard
Z245.1--Safety Standards for Refuse Collection Equipment.
ANSI's current policy is to revise each standard every five years.
This means that the safety standards referenced in 40 CFR 243.202-1(d)
have been revised since 1976.
The original safety standard referenced in the 1976 guideline has
been expanded in scope. In 1976, ANSI Z245.1 covered the following
types of collection equipment;
(1) Rear-loading compaction equipment,
(2) Side-loading compaction equipment,
(3) Front-loading compaction equipment,
(4) Tilt-frame equipment,
(5) Hoist-type equipment,
(6) Satellite vehicles,
(7) Special collection compaction equipment, and
(8) Stationary compaction equipment.
Now Z245.1 has evolved into the following series of four separate
standards.
(1) Z245.1--Mobile Refuse Collection and Compaction Equipment--
Safety Requirements;
a. Front-loading equipment,
b. Rear-loading equipment,
c. Satellite vehicles
d. Side-loading equipment,
e. Tilt-frame and hoist-type equipment,
f. Mechanized container collecting vehicles,
g. Recycling vehicles, and
h. Transfer trailers;
(2) Z245.2--Stationary Compactors--Safety Requirements;
(3) Z245.3--Waste Containers--Safety Requirements; and
(4) Z245.6--Waste Containers--Compatibility Dimensions.
In today's rule, EPA is revising the Part 243 guidelines to
incorporate the above four standards. Each type of equipment covered in
the original guideline is still covered in these revisions. In
addition, EPA has added voluntary consensus standards for waste
containers which did not exist at the time of the original rulemaking.
The waste container standards were added because waste containers
are an integral part of most waste collection systems.
The petitioners also requested that balers be included in this
regulation. Although they are an important part of some waste
collection systems, they are not an integral part of many waste
collection systems and they were not included in the original
regulation. There may also be some question whether balers should be
considered part of a waste collection system. Therefore, EPA is not
including standards for balers in this rule.
III. What Does This Rule Do?
Overview of This Rule
This rule changes three sections; Secs. 243.100, 243.200-1, and
243.202-1. The changes are made through incorporation by reference. All
of the changes are made in the ``Requirements'' sections of the
guideline. ``Requirements'' are minimum levels of performance that
solid waste collection operations are required to meet. These
guidelines are mandatory for Federal agencies and recommended to State,
interstate, regional, and local governments for their activities.
Specific Changes
The changes to Sec. 243.100 paragraphs (c) and (g) update
references to an Executive Order. The current regulations refer to
Executive Order 11752. That Executive Order has been replaced by
Executive Order 12088. Today's rule changes the text to refer to the
new Executive Order 12088.
The changes to Sec. 243.200-1 add a new paragraph (e). The new
paragraph (e) adds the Safety Requirements and Compatibility Dimensions
to the Waste Containers requirement of the guidelines. These guidelines
address requirements for waste containers used for storage of solid
waste and for materials that have been separated for the purpose of
recycling.
The changes to Sec. 243.202-1 update the safety requirements for
both mobile equipment and stationary compactors. The safety
requirements for mobile equipment are updated from the 1976 standards
to new standards finalized in 1992. The safety requirements for
stationary compactors are updated from
[[Page 70604]]
the 1976 standards to new standards finalized in 1997. The safety
requirements are applicable to many types of solid waste collection
vehicles and to stationary compactors.
Why EPA Is Making These Changes
We are making these changes at the request of Waste Equipment
Technology Association to modify the ANSI standards because we believe
the newer standards have a number of improved safety provisions. For
example, the updated standards require the use of grab handles, riding
steps, and slip resistant surfaces on loading platforms. Therefore, we
believe, that if the industry follows these new standards, the accident
rate for solid waste collection industry should be reduced. These
features should reduce risks both to people who collect solid waste as
well as to the general public.
IV. How Does This Rule Comply With Applicable Statutes and
Executive Orders?
A. Executive Order 12866 (OMB Review)
Under Executive Order 12866, EPA must determine whether a
regulatory action is significant and therefore subject to OMB review
and the other provisions of the Executive Order. A significant
regulatory action is defined by Executive Order 12866 as one that may:
(1) Have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more or
adversely affect in a material way the economy, a sector of the
economy, productivity, competition, jobs, the environment, public
health or safety, or State, local, or tribal governments or
communities; (2) Create a serious inconsistency or otherwise interfere
with an action taken or planned by another agency; (3) Materially alter
the budgetary impact of entitlements, grants, user fees, or loan
programs or rights and obligations or recipients thereof; or (4) Raise
novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal mandates, the
President's priorities, or the principles set forth in Executive Order
12866.
We have determined that this rule is not a significant regulatory
action under the terms of Executive Order 12866 and is therefore not
subject to OMB review.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), as amended
by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996
(SBREFA), generally requires an agency to prepare, and make available
for public comment, a regulatory flexibility analysis that describes
the impact of a proposed or final rule on small entities (i.e., small
businesses, small organizations, and small governmental jurisdictions).
However, no regulatory flexibility analysis is required if the head of
an agency certifies the rule will not have a significant adverse impact
on a substantial number of small entities.
SBREFA amended the Regulatory Flexibility Act to require Federal
agencies to provide a statement of the factual basis for certifying
that a rule will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities. The following discussion explains
EPA's determination.
The effect of this rule is to encourage purchasers of waste
containers and solid waste collection vehicles to procure equipment
that meets current industry voluntary consensus standards for safety.
The rule contains recommendations, not requirements, to State and local
governments; therefore, it does not impose new burdens on small
entities. Additionally, it is the Agency's understanding that all new
solid waste collection equipment meets the current ANSI standards. As a
result, this rule does not impose new burdens on small entities.
Therefore, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 605b, I hereby certify that this rule
will not have a significant adverse impact on a substantial number of
small entities. Hence, this rule does not require a regulatory
flexibility analysis.
C. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), Public
Law 104-4, establishes requirements for Federal agencies to assess the
effects of regulatory actions on State, local, and Tribal governments,
and the private sector. Under Section 202 of the UMRA, EPA generally
must prepare a written statement, including a cost-benefit analysis,
for proposed and final rules with ``Federal mandates'' that may result
in expenditures to State, local, and tribal governments, in the
aggregate, or to the private sector, of $100 million or more in any one
year. Before promulgating an EPA rule for which a written statement is
needed, Section 205 of the UMRA generally requires EPA to identify and
consider a reasonable number of alternatives and adopt the least
costly, most cost effective or least burdensome alternative that
achieves the objective of the rule. The provisions of Section 205 do
not apply when they are inconsistent with applicable law. Moreover,
Section 205 allows EPA to adopt an alternative other than the least
costly, most cost-effective or least burdensome alternative if the
Administrator publishes with the final rule an explanation why that
alternative was not adopted. Before EPA establishes any regulatory
requirements that may significantly or uniquely affect small
governments, including tribal governments, it must have developed under
Section 203 of the UMRA a small government agency plan. The plan must
provide for notifying potentially affected small governments, enabling
officials of affected small governments to have meaningful and timely
input in the development of EPA regulatory proposals with significant
Federal intergovernmental mandates, and informing, educating, and
advising small governments on compliance with the regulatory
requirements.
EPA's analysis of compliance with the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
of 1995 found that this rule imposes no enforceable duty on any State,
local or tribal governments or the private sector. Thus, today's rule
is not subject to the requirements of sections 202 and 205 of UMRA.
States are encouraged to participate in the development of voluntary
consensus standards such as the ones referenced in this rule.
D. Paperwork Reduction Act
Today's rule is in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq. We found that no information is being collected
from the States, Federal Agencies, or industry for the existing rule
and today's revision would not require the collection of any additional
information. Therefore, we do not need to prepare an Information
Collection Request (ICR).
E. Executive Order 13132 (Federalism)
Executive Order 13132, entitled ``Federalism'' (64 FR 43255, August
10, 1999), requires EPA to develop an accountable process to ensure
``meaningful and timely input by State and local officials in the
development of regulatory policies that have federalism implications.''
``Policies that have federalism implications'' is defined in the
Executive Order to include regulations that have ``substantial direct
effects on the States, on the relationship between the national
government and the States, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various levels of government.'' Under
Executive Order 13132, EPA may not issue a regulation that has
federalism implications, that imposes substantial direct compliance
costs, and that is not required by statute, unless the Federal
government provides the funds necessary to pay the direct compliance
costs incurred by State and local governments, or EPA consults with
State and local officials early in the process of developing the
proposed regulation. EPA also may not issue a
[[Page 70605]]
regulation that has federalism implications and that preempts State law
unless the Agency consults with State and local officials early in the
process of developing the proposed regulation.
If EPA complies by consulting, Executive Order 13132 requires EPA
to provide to the Office of Management and Budget (OM), in a separately
identified section of the preamble to the rule, a federalism summary
impact statement (FSIS). The FSIS must include a description of the
extent of EPA's prior consultation with State and local officials, a
summary of the nature of their concerns and the agency's position
supporting the need to issue the regulation, and a statement of the
extent to which the concerns of State and local officials have been
met. Also, when EPA transmits a draft final rule with federalism
implications to OMB for review pursuant to Executive Order 12866, EPA
must include a certification from the agency's Federalism Official
stating that EPA has met the requirements of Executive Order 13132 in a
meaningful and timely manner.
This final rule will not have substantial direct effects on the
States, on the relationship between the national government and the
States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the
various levels of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132.
``This is so because the incorporation of these revised ANSI standards
into the Part 243 guidelines imposes no mandate on states or local
governments. Instead, we provide the Part 243 guidelines only as
recommendations for states, interstate, regional, and local
governments. Part 243 sets forth requirements only for federal
agencies. See 40 CFR section 243.100(c).'' Thus, the requirements of
section 6 of the Executive Order do not apply to this rule.
F. Executive Order 13084: Consultation and Coordination with Indian
Tribal Governments
Under Executive Order 13084, EPA may not issue a regulation that is
not required by statute, that significantly or uniquely affects the
communities of Indian tribal governments, and that imposes substantial
direct compliance costs on those communities, unless the Federal
government provides the funds necessary to pay the direct compliance
costs incurred by the tribal governments, or EPA consults with those
governments. If EPA complies by consulting, Executive Order 13084
requires EPA to provide to the Office of Management and Budget, in a
separately identified section of the preamble to the rule, a
description of the extent of EPA's prior consultation with
representatives of affected tribal governments, a summary of the nature
of their concerns, and a statement supporting the need to issue the
regulation. In addition, Executive Order 13084 requires EPA to develop
an effective process permitting elected officials and other
representatives of Indian tribal governments ``to provide meaningful
and timely input in the development of regulatory policies on matters
that significantly or uniquely affect their communities.''
Today's rule change does not significantly or uniquely affect the
communities of Indian tribal governments. The impact of these revisions
on tribal governments is minimal and no different than any other
governmental entity affected. These revisions do not require any new
mandates for the tribes, but merely update existing voluntary
standards. Accordingly, the requirements of section 3(b) of Executive
Order 13084 do not apply to this rule.
G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental
Health Risks and Safety Risks
Executive Order 13045, ``Protection of Children from Environmental
Health Risks and Safety Risks'' (applies to any rule that: (1) is
determined to be ``economically significant'' as defined under E.O.
12866, and (2) concerns an environmental health or safety risk that EPA
has reason to believe may have a disproportionate effect on children.
If the regulatory action meets both criteria, the Agency must evaluate
the environmental health or safety effects of the planned rule on
children, and explain why the planned regulation is preferable to other
potentially effective and reasonably feasible alternatives considered
by the Agency.
This rule is not subject to E.O. 13045 because it is not an
economically significant rule as defined by E.O. 12866, and because it
does not affect decisions involving the environmental health or safety
risks to children.
H. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995
Under Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act (NTTAA), EPA is required to use voluntary consensus
standards in its regulatory activities unless to do so would be
inconsistent with applicable law or otherwise impractical.
This direct final rule complies with the requirements of the NTTAA
because it utilizes voluntary consensus standards developed by the
American National Standards Institute (ANSI). The ANSI is a voluntary
consensus standards-setting body under the NTTAA.
I. Executive Order 12898: Environmental Justice
Under Executive Order 12898, ``Federal Actions to Address
Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income
Populations,'' as well as through EPA's April 1995, ``Environmental
Justice Strategy, OSWER Environmental Justice Task Force Action Agenda
Report,'' and National Environmental Justice Advisory Council, EPA has
undertaken to incorporate environmental justice into its policies and
programs. EPA is committed to addressing environmental justice
concerns, and is assuming a leadership role in environmental justice
initiatives to enhance environmental quality for all residents of the
United States. The Agency's goals are to ensure that no segment of the
population, regardless of race, color, national origin, or income,
bears disproportionately high and adverse human health and
environmental effects as a result of EPA's policies, programs, and
activities, and all people live in clean and sustainable communities.
The Agency believes that today's rule change revising voluntary
consensus standards into guidelines for waste containers and solid
waste collection vehicles will not have an adverse environmental or
economic impact on any minority or low-income group, or on any other
type of affected community since these standards will not significantly
affect the location of any solid waste collection facility. These are
updated safety standards to assure minimal safety requirements for
waste collection equipment.
J. Executive Order 12088 (Compliance of Federal Agencies With the Solid
Waste Disposal Act)
Executive Order 12088 requires each head of a Federal Agency to
comply with standards issued under several laws, including the Solid
Waste Disposal Act. Executive Order 12088 revoked an older Executive
Order 11752. Part 243 included two outdated references to Executive
Order 11752 at Secs. 243.100 (c) and (g). Today's rule replaced the old
references to Executive Order 11752 with Executive Order 12088.
K. Submission to Congress and General Accounting Office
The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
[[Page 70606]]
Fairness Act of 1996, generally provides that before a rule may take
effect, the agency promulgating the rule must submit a rule report,
which includes a copy of the rule, to each House of the Congress and to
the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report
containing this rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate,
the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the
United States prior to publication of the rule in the Federal Register.
A Major rule cannot take effect until 60 days after it is published in
the Federal Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by
5 U.S.C. 804(2). This rule will be effective March 17, 2000, unless EPA
receives adverse comment by January 18, 2000.
