ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[IN94-1b; FRL-6477-1]
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plan; Indiana
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve Indiana's State Plan to control
air pollutants from Municipal Waste Combustors (MWC), submitted on
September 30, 1999. The State Plan adopts the Federal Emissions
Guidelines applicable to existing MWCs with capacity to combust more
than 250 tons per day of municipal solid waste.
In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the EPA is
approving the State's request as a direct final rule without prior
proposal because EPA views this action as noncontroversial and
anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for approving the
State's request is set forth in the direct final rule. The direct final
rule will become effective without further notice unless the Agency
receives relevant adverse written comment on this action. Should the
Agency receive such comment, it will publish a final rule informing the
public that the direct final rule will not take effect and such public
comment received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on
this proposed rule. If no adverse written comments are received, the
direct final rule will take effect on the date stated in that document
and no further activity will be taken on this proposed rule. EPA does
not plan to institute a second comment period on this action. Any
parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this
time.
DATES: Written comments must be received on or before December 20,
1999.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be mailed to: J. Elmer Bortzer,
Chief, Regulation Development Section, Air Programs Branch (AR-18J),
Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, 77 West Jackson Boulevard,
Chicago, Illinois 60604.
Copies of the State submittal are available for inspection at:
Regulation Development Section, Air Programs Branch (AR-18J),
Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, 77 West Jackson Boulevard,
Chicago, Illinois 60604.
