40 CFR Part 62
[AZ,CA,HI,NV-066-MSWb; FRL-7123-1]
Approval and Promulgation of State Plans for Designated
Facilities and Pollutants: Negative Declarations; Municipal Waste
Combustion; Arizona; California; Hawaii; Nevada
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve the small Municipal Waste
Combustion (MWC) units section 111(d) plan negative declarations
submitted by the States of Arizona, California, Hawaii, and Nevada.
These negative declarations certify that small MWC units subject to the
requirements of sections 111(d) and 129 of the Clean Air Act do not
exist in these States.
In the Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving
each State's negative declaration as a direct final rule without prior
proposal because the Agency views this as noncontroversial and
anticipates no relevant adverse comments to this action. 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, no
further activity is contemplated in relation to this action. If EPA
receives relevant adverse comments, the direct final rule will be
withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a
subsequent final rulemaking based on this proposed action. EPA will not
institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties
interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time.
DATES: Comments must be received in writing by January 28, 2002.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Andrew Steckel, U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, Rulemaking Office (AIR-4),
Air Division, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 94105-3901.
Copies of the documents relevant to this proposed rule are
available for public inspection at EPA's Region IX office during normal
business hours.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mae Wang, U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne Street (AIR-4), San
Francisco, CA 94105-3901, Telephone: (415) 947-4124.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: See the information provided in the direct
final action which is located in the Rules section of this Federal
Register.
Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.
Dated: December 6, 2001.
