ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 62

[Docket No. ID-03-0001; FRL-6583-7]


Approval and Promulgation of State Plans for Designated
Facilities and Pollutants: Oregon; Negative Declaration

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve the Clean Air Act (CAA), Sections
111(d) and 129 negative declaration submitted by the Oregon Department
of Environmental Quality on October 20, 1998, and November 6, 1998.
This negative declaration adequately certifies that there are no
Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerators (HMIWI) located within
its boundaries.
    In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the EPA is
approving Oregon's negative declaration as a direct final rule without
prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial
action and anticipates no relevant adverse comments. A detailed
rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final rule. If no
relevant adverse comments are received in response to this action, EPA
will not take action on this rule. If the EPA receives relevant adverse
comments, EPA will withdraw the direct final rule and it will not take
effect. EPA will then address all public comments received in a
subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. The EPA will not
institute a second comment period on this action.

DATES: Written comments must be received by May 22, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to: Catherine Woo, US
EPA, Region X, Office of Air Quality (OAQ-107), 1200 Sixth Avenue,
Seattle, WA 98101.
    Copies of the State negative declaration are available for public
review during normal business hours at the following locations. Persons
wanting to examine these documents should make an appointment with the
appropriate office at least 24 hours before the day of the visit.

Environmental Protection Agency, Region X, Office of Air Quality, 1200
