ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 63
[FRL-6514-4]
Section 112(l) Proposal of the State of Florida's Rule Adjustment
to the National Perchloroethylene Air Emission Standards for Dry
Cleaning Facilities
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to
approve the adjustment of the ``National Perchloroethylene Air Emission
Standards for Dry Cleaning Facilities,'' (PERC) National Emission
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP), delegated to the
Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). This PERC NESHAP
delegated to the State of Florida is approved through the section
112(l) procedures outlined in 40 CFR 63.92 and 63.91 of section 112 of
the Clean Air Act as amended in 1990. On April 9, 1999, the State of
Florida submitted a request for adjustment to the requirements of 40
CFR 63.10(b)5. The requested adjustment by FDEP would allow the
periodic startup, shutdown, and malfunction reports in 40 CFR
63.10(d)(5) of the General Provisions, to be retained on site at area
source PERC NESHAP affected facilities instead of submitting them to
the delegated agency. EPA has reviewed this 112(l) adjustment request
and determined that the FDEP has satisfied the necessary criteria of a
complete submittal as specified in 63.92 and 63.91.
In the Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is
approving the section 112(l) adjustment of Florida's delegated PERC
NESHAP as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency
views this as a noncontroversial action and anticipates no adverse
comments. A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the
direct final rule. If no adverse comments are received in response to
this action, no further activity is contemplated. If EPA receives
adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all
public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule
based on this proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second
comment period on this document. Any parties interested in commenting
on this document should do so at this time.
DATES: Written comments must be received on or before January 27, 2000.
ADDRESSES: All comments should be addressed to: Leonardo Ceron, U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4, Air and Radiation Technology
Branch, Atlanta Federal Center, 61 Forsyth Street, SW, Atlanta, Georgia
30303; ceron.leonardo@epamail.epa.gov. Copies of Florida's original
submittal and accompanying documentation are available for public
review during normal business hours, at the address listed above.
