ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
[FRL-6480-8]
Acid Rain Program: Draft Acid Rain compliance Plans
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of draft nitrogen oxides compliance plans.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency is issuing draft nitrogen
oxides (NOX) compliance plans in accordance with the Acid
Rain Program regulations (40 CFR parts 72 and 76). Because the Agency
does not anticipate receiving adverse comments, the draft
NOX compliance plans are also being issued as a direct final
action in the notice of final NOX compliance plans published
elsewhere in today's Federal Register.
DATES: Comments on the draft NOX compliance plans proposed
by this action must be received on or before December 29, 1999.
ADDRESSES: Administrative Records. The administrative record for the
NOX compliance plans, except information protected as
confidential, may be viewed during normal operating hours at U.S. EPA
Region 4, 100 Alabama Street SW, Atlanta, GA 30303.
Comments. Send comments, requests for public hearings, and requests
to receive notice of future actions concerning NOX
compliance plans to Winston A. Smith, Director, Air, Pesticides, and
Toxics Management Division (address above).
Submit all comments in duplicate, the commenter's name, address,
and telephone number, and the commenter's interest in the matter and
affiliation, if any, to the owners and operators of all units covered
by the draft NOX compliance plans. All timely comments
[[Page 66633]]
will be considered, except those pertaining to standard provisions
under 40 CFR 72.9 and issues not relevant to the draft NOX
compliance plans.
Hearings. To request a public hearing on the draft NOX
compliance plans, submit a written request stating the issues proposed
to be raised in the hearing and explaining how a hearing will
contribute to the decision-making process. EPA may schedule a hearing
if EPA finds that it will contribute to the decision-making process by
clarifying significant issues affecting the draft NOX
compliance plans.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jenny Jachim, U.S. EPA Region 4, (404)
562-9126.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: If no significant, adverse comments are
timely received, no further activity is contemplated in relation to the
draft NOX compliance plans and the NOX compliance
plans issued as a direct final action in the notice of final
NOX compliance plans published elsewhere in today's Federal
Register will automatically become final on the date specified in that
notice. If significant, adverse comments are timely received on a draft
NOX compliance plan, the relevant NOX compliance
plan in the notice of final NOX compliance plans will be
withdrawn. Because the Agency will not institute a second comment
period on this notice of draft NOX compliance plans, any
parties interested in commenting should do so during this comment
period.
For further information and a detailed description of the
NOX compliance plans, see the information provided in the
notice of final NOX compliance plans elsewhere in today's
Federal Register.
Dated: November 18, 1999.
Larry F. Kertcher,
Acting Director, Clean Air Markets Division, Office of Atmospheric
Programs, Office of Air and Radiation.
