     Attached please find the memorandum from Jack McGraw
requesting an extra copy of those Policy Directives that are
appropriate for State distribution.  We are not capturing all
the policy-related documents in the OSWER Policy Directives
system.  Therefore, I'd like to take this opportunity to clarify
the procedures.

     I understand that complying with the system can be some-
what burdensome, therefore my staff has developed some step-
by-step procedures to assist you in meeting the requirements
of the Policy Directives System.  These procedures are found
in attachment #2.  I've also attached many copies of a handout
on the Policy Directives System which you can pass around.

     In addition, OPMS has a new Policy Directives Coordinator,
Jennifer Barker, who handles all OSW documents entering the
OSWER Policy Directives System.  If you have any questions,
you can call Thea McManus or Jennifer Barker at 382-4646 or
475-9350, respectively.

FRCM:     36CK/W. McGraw
          /Deputy Assistant Administrator

TO:     /OSWER Office Directors
     As you roay recall fron our meeting with ASTSWMO last October, ASTSWMO
requested that OSWER Headquarters provide the States with copies of all
final policy and procedural guidance documents.  We agreed that Headquarters
would provide the States with appropriate documents.  The purpose of this
is to inform you of the mechanisn which we will use to meet this cormidnent.

     Currently, all policy and procedural guidance requires an OSWER
Directives number and form.  To accommodate the State distribution, this
form has been revised to allow you to indicate when a document should be
provided by Headquarters to the States.  A copy of the revised form is
attached/ and a supply will be provided to your Office Directives Coordinators.
The originator of a document should check the appropriate box to indicate
if the document should be provided to the States.  If a document is to be
sent to the States by Headquarters, the originator must provide tHe OSWER
Directives system with 13 instead of 12 copies of the document.  We will
send the extra copy to Cincinnati where State distribution will be handled.

     Since all policy and procedural documents must be entered in the
OSWER Directives System, this procedure will allow the most efficient and
expedient mechanism to ensure that the States are receiving information
which they need to manage our programs.  If you have any questions,
please contact Sherry Fielding at 382-4483 or Margie Russell at 475-8800.

          COMPLYING WITH THE OSWER POLICY DIRECTIVES SYSTEM
 I.  DOCUMENTS TO BE INCLUDED IN SYSTEM

    A.  Description:

            An OSWER directive is a document which mandates action
       for Regional personnel.  This may include OSWER-originated
       written communications that provide program or management
       policy, clarification of existing policy, procedural guide-
       lines, program guidance, delegations and redelegations of
       authority,  and OSWER-specific expansions of Agencywide
       administrative directives.

    B.  Items:

           1. Guidance Documents
           2. Technical Resource Documents
           3. Regulatory Interpretation/Implementation Documents
              (RILs, PIGs,  RSIs, etc.)
           4. Mandates for  action
           5. Procedural material
           6. Programmatic  guidance materials
           7. Expansions to Agencywide administrative directives
           8. Informational material designated as having the
              impact of a directive
           9. Any communication that provides policy, including
              precedent-setting determinations

II.  INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO  COMPLETE THE REQUIRED FORMS

            Once the originator (i.e., the person who prepares or
       writes a directive)  of a document has determined whether or
       not it should be included in the Directives System,  (s)he is
       responsible for completing the following steps.

       A.  Develop the document to the appropriate level of  draft
          before entering it into the Directives System.

           1. Precedent-Setting letters, Memoranda, or short policy
              statements which are not expected to be circulated
              outside the respective division for review or concurrence
              must be entered into the system before final
              concurrence/signature.

-------
                               -2-
    2.  Guidances and other documents of substantial length,
       and/or documents which are expected to be widely
       circulated for review and comment,  and/or which may be
       expected to undergo revisions must  be entered into the
       system before being circulated outside the originating
       office for review.

B. Complete in full the OSWER Policy Directives System
   Initiation Request Form (see attached).  Each number listed
   below corresponds to the same number on the Initiation
   Request form.

    1.  The Directive Number is given by the OSW Directives
       Coordinator

    2.  Originator's
         a. name
         b. mail code
         c. office and branch
         d. telephone number

    3.  Complete title of document (no abbreviations please)

    4.  Summary of directive

    5.  Keywords (See attachment of official keywords.)

    6.  If a directive updates other documents in the system,
       it should be annotated here and under REFERENCE of the
       Cover Sheet.

    7.  Draft level:  If a document is final, then it is not
       necessary to complete this section.  Whereas directives
       not in the final stages of issuance must be assigned a
       draft classification.  The classification allows the
       user of the directive to identify the degree of finality
       and to alert users regarding the necessary additional •
       clearances.  The classification must appear along with
       the word "DRAFT," on each page of a directive.

            A. Draft Level A -
                  A document which is signed by the AA or DAA,
                  but is awaiting other approval, such as OMB
                  or the Administrator and is significant in
                  that it has been issued by the highest level
                  of OSWER.
            B. Draft Level B -
                  A document signed by an Office Director,
                  but is awaiting AA/DAA approval and is
                  distributed with the intent that it will
                  be utilized prior to the AA's signature.
            C. Draft Level C -
                  A document transmitted only for review and/
                  or comment by an Office Director or the
                  AA/DAA and is not transmitted to be followed
                  as guidance.  Schedules should be in place
                  for finalizing the document.

-------
                          -3-
            D.  Draft Level D -
                  This is to indicate that a directive on a
                  particular subject is  currently being prepared.
                  It alerts users of the system that a particular
                  policy or guidance document is being developed.
                  Such advance notice may prevent duplication
                  of effort.

    8.  Distribution to States by Headquarters:   Mark "Yes" if
       the document contains information/knowledge that States
       need to  successfully implement the national hazardous
       waste program.   If this is marked "Yes," the
       originating office must submit 15 copies of the
       document instead of 14.  OSWER will send the extra copy
       copy to  Cincinnati where copies will be  made and
       distributed to every state.

    9.  The OSW  Directives Coordinator will sign here once all
       necessary steps have been completed.

   10.  Type in  the name and title of the Approving Official
       and the  date of approval.  The individual who signs a
       directive assumes responsibility for its content and
       impact on other offices.  As a rule, directives which
       affect the operations, approach,  or workload of the
       Regions  must be signed by the AA-OSWER.   However,
       there are occasions when it may be appropriate for an
       Office Director to sign memoranda to Regional Waste
       Management Division Directors.  Nevertheless, all
       communications with the Regional Division Directors as
       a group  must be signed at a level no lower than the
       Office Director.  The officials who may  approve OSWER
       directives are:

          1. Assistant Administrator (all directives)
          2. Deputy Assistant Administrator (all directives
             except some delegations of authority);
          3. Office Directors (requests for comment on draft
             guidance/policy directives and other matters
             delegated by the AA and authorized by Agency
             delegations rules).

C. Complete in  full the OSWER Policy Directives System
   Cover Sheet  (see attached).

          1. The Directive Number is given by the OSW
             Directives Coordinator
          2. Complete title of document (no abbreviations
             please)
          3. Date document was approved
          4. Date document becomes effective (Draft documents
             do not have an Effective Date).

-------
                                -4-
                5.  Final or  Draft:   Choose only  one.   If  the  word
                   "DRAFT" is printed on  the document, or is  part
                   of  the  title,  than marking  "FINAL"  is  inconsistent,
                   If  "DRAFT" is  marked,  a Status  Level must  be given
                   also.
                6.  STATUS:   Only  Draft documents need  this  marked.
                            Choose  the appropriate  level.
               .7.  REFERENCE:   Directives which  update versions of
                               documents  in the  system should be
                               annotated  here.

      D.  Take  ONE copy of  both  the  DOCUMENT and  COVER  SHEET,  and
         TWO copies of the INITIATION REQUEST  FORM to  the OSW Policy
         Directives Coordinator (Jennifer Barker),  who will provide
         the appropriate OSWER  Policy Directive  Classification
         Number.

         The OSWER  Policy  Directives NUMBER must be entered:

                1.  On  both copies of the  INITIATION REQUEST FORM;
                2.  On  the  COVER SHEET;
                3.  On  the  upper right-hand corner  of EACH PAGE of
                   the document;
                4.  On  the  upper right-hand corner  of any  transmittal
                   memorandum accompanying the document.

         The originator of the  document will attach one copy  of the
         INITIATION REQUEST  FORM to the document.   (The OSW Policy
         Directives Coordinator will retain the  other  copy of the
         initiation request  form and the  cover sheet.)

      E.  Send  the document (with attached initiation request
         form) forward for reviews, comments,  concurrences  and
         final signature.

      F.  Forward the signed  original document  and  14/15 copies
         (see  Part  II, Section  B, #8) to  the OSW Policy Directives
         Coordinator after the  document has received final approval
         and signature. The original will be  returned to the
         originator.  (OPMS  can provide xeroxing services,  if
         necessary.)

III.  UPDATING  POLICY DIRECTIVES

          If a document that entered the  OSWER Policy  Directives
     System as a draft is  later revised and becomes a  final,  it  is
     the  originator's  responsibility to  inform the OSW Policy
     Directives Coordinator  of  that change.

          The  originator  needs  to follow  the  same  steps as if
     entering  the system with  a new document:   complete a new
     cover sheet and initiation request  form.   Generally, everything
     will remain the same  on the forms  except  the  draft status.
     Copies of the  revised document, initiation  request  form, and
     cover sheet must  be  submitted  to  the Directives Coordinator.

-------
                               -5-
         If the new edition of  a document  supercedes  the old
    edition/  the new edition will receive  a  new Policy Directive
    Classification number.   On  the other hand,  if  the new edition
    supplements (but does  not supercede) a document,  then it will
    not  receive a new Policy Directive Classification number.
IV.  OTHER OSW PUBLICATION/DISTRIBUTION CONSIDERATIONS

         The originator should consider other related issues to
    any documents  entering the OSWER Policy Directives System.

         1.   Should this document be distributed through NTIS?
