| E8-8961 | Navajo Nation; Underground Injection Control (UIC) Program; Proposed Primacy Approval and Minor Revisions | Proposed Rule | The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve an application from the Navajo Nation ("Tribe") under Section 1425 of the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) for primary enforcement responsibility (or "primacy") for the underground injection control (UIC) program for Class II (oil and gas-related) injection wells located: within the exterior boundaries of the formal Navajo Reservation, including the three satellite reservations (Alamo, Canoncito and Ramah), but excluding the former Bennett Freeze Area, the Four Corners Power Plant and the Navajo Generating Station; and on Navajo Nation tribal trust and allotted lands outside the exterior boundaries of the formal Navajo Reservation. (These areas are collectively referred to hereinafter as "areas covered by the Tribe's Primacy Application.") EPA would continue to administer its SDWA UIC program for any Class I, III, IV, and V wells on Navajo Indian lands (defined as Indian country in EPA UIC regulations; see definition of "Indian lands"). EPA is also proposing minor revisions to regulations that are not specific to the Navajo Nation's application. EPA requests public comment on this proposed rule, the Navajo Nation's application, and EPA's supporting documentation, and will consider all comments received within the public comment period before taking final action. | 2008-04-24 | 2008 | 4 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2008/04/24/E8-8961/navajo-nation-underground-injection-control-uic-program-proposed-primacy-approval-and-minor | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2008-04-24/pdf/E8-8961.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve an application from the Navajo Nation ("Tribe") under Section 1425 of the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) for primary enforcement responsibility (or "primacy") for the underground... |
