ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 60
[FRL-4841-4]
Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources, Supplemental
Delegation of Authority to Knox County, TN
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Delegation of authority.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On May 5, 1993, the Knox County Department of Air Pollution
Control requested that EPA delegate authority for implementation and
enforcement of an additional category of New Source Performance
Standards (NSPS). Since EPA's review of Knox County's pertinent laws,
rules, and regulations showed them to be adequate for the
implementation and enforcement of this Federal standard, the Agency has
made the delegation as requested.
EFFECTIVE DATE: The effective date of the delegation of authority is
May 28, 1993.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the request for delegation of authority and EPA's
letter of delegation are available for public inspection during normal
business hours at the following locations:
Environmental Protection Agency, Region IV, Air Programs Branch, 345
Courtland Street, Atlanta, Georgia 30365.
Knox County Department of Air Pollution Control, City-County Building,
Room 459, 400 West Main Avenue, Knoxville, Tennessee 37902.
Effective immediately, all requests, applications, reports and
other correspondence required pursuant to the newly delegated standard
should not be submitted to the Region IV office, but should instead be
submitted to the following address:
Knox County Department of Air Pollution Control, City-County Building,
Room 459, 400 West Main Avenue, Knoxville, Tennessee 37902.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Randy Terry, Regulatory Planning and
Development Section, Air Programs Branch, United States Environmental
Protection Agency, Region IV, 345 Courtland Street NE., Atlanta,
Georgia 30365, (404) 347-2864.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 301, in conjunction with sections
110 and 111(c)(1) of the Clean Air Act as amended November 15, 1990,
authorizes EPA to delegate authority to implement and enforce the
standards set out in 40 CFR part 60, New Source Performance Standards
(NSPS).
On May 20, 1977, EPA initially delegated the authority for
implementation and enforcement of the NSPS programs to Knox County. A
subsequent delegation followed on December 13, 1985, in which Knox
County requested an update of its delegation of authority for
previously delegated NSPS regulations. On May 5, 1993, Knox County
requested a delegation of authority for implementation and enforcement
of the following NSPS category found in 40 CFR part 60.
1. Standard of Performance for Calciners and Dryers in Mineral
Industries, as specified in 40 CFR part 60, subpart UUU, as amended at
57 FR 44496 (September 28, 1992), as adopted April 29, 1993.
After a thorough review of the request, the Regional Administrator
determined that such a delegation was appropriate for this source
category with the conditions set forth in the original delegation
letter of May 20, 1977. Knox County sources subject to the requirements
of this subpart will now be under the jurisdiction of Knox County.
Action
Since review of the pertinent Knox County laws, rules, and
regulations showed them to be adequate for the implementation and
enforcement of the aforementioned category of NSPS, the EPA hereby
notifies the public that it has delegated the authority for the source
category listed above on May 28, 1993.
The Office of Management and Budget has exempted this rule from the
requirements of section 6 of Executive Order 12866.
Authority: This document is issued under the authority of
sections 101, 110, 111, 112, and 301 of the Clean Air Act, as
Amended (42 U.S.C. 7401, 7410, 7411, 7412, and 7601).
Dated: February 3, 1994.
Patrick M. Tobin,
Acting Regional Administrator.
