Where is the Solvent-Contaminated Wipes Final Rule in Effect?
This map shows which states have adopted the 2013 Solvent-contaminated Wipes final rule and which states have been authorized by EPA to implement it. New rules go into effect in a state when a state adopts them into state law. When EPA authorizes a state for a new rule, EPA reviews the new state regulations subsequent to adoption to ensure they are equally as stringent as, or more stringent than the federal regulations. EPA authorizes states through a final rule and can then enforce authorized state rules. See the State Authorization page for further information about the State Authorization program.
State adoption of the 2013 Solvent-Contaminated Wipes final rule is optional because the rule is less stringent than the previous regulations under RCRA. The 2013 Solvent-Contaminated final rule went into effect immediately in states, territories, and Tribal land that are not RCRA-authorized, including Iowa and Alaska.
Underneath the map is a table with the state adoption and authorization information displayed on the map, and links to the state or federal regulations.
