🇬🇧 English

The EPA is asking for final public comments before renewing an existing paperwork approval tied to the RCRA definition of solid waste. The notice does not change waste rules by itself; it extends the agency’s authority to collect information connected to those rules through an Office of Management and Budget review. Businesses and facilities that handle regulated solid or hazardous waste may be affected if they already submit records or reports under this information collection. Comments are due by July 22, 2026, through EPA’s docket or OMB’s review portal.
