40 CFR Part 63
[AD-FRL-5182-5]
RIN 2060-AC19
National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for
Source Categories: Organic Hazardous Air Pollutants From the Synthetic
Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry and Other Processes Subject to
the Negotiated Regulation for Equipment Leaks
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This action proposes to correct errors and clarify regulatory
text of the ``National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants
for Source Categories: Organic Hazardous Air Pollutants from the
Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry and Other Processes
Subject to the Negotiated Regulation for Equipment Leaks,'' which was
issued as a final rule on April 22, 1994 and June 6, 1994. This rule is
commonly known as the Hazardous Organic NESHAP or the HON. Because the
revisions merely correct errors and clarify regulatory text the Agency
does not anticipate receiving adverse comments. Consequently the
revisions are also being issued as a direct final rule in the final
rules section of this Federal Register. If no significant adverse
comments are timely received, no further action will be taken with
respect to this proposal and the direct final rule will become final on
the date provided in that action.
DATES: Comments. Comments must be received on or before May 10, 1995,
unless a hearing is requested by April 20, 1995. If a hearing is
requested, written comments must be received by May 25, 1995.
Public Hearing. Anyone requesting a public hearing must contact the
EPA no later than April 20, 1995. If a hearing is held, it will take
place on April 25, 1995, beginning at 10:00 a.m.
ADDRESSES: Comments. Comments should be submitted (in duplicate, if
possible) to: Air and Radiation Docket and Information Center (6102),
Attention Docket Number A-90-20 (see docket section below), room M-
1500, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 401 M Street, SW,
Washington, D.C. 20460. The EPA requests that a separate copy also be
sent to the contact person listed below.
Public Hearing. If a public hearing is held, it will be held at the
EPA's Office of Administration Auditorium, Research Triangle Park,
North Carolina. Persons interested in attending the hearing or wishing
to present oral testimony should notify Mrs. Kim Teal, U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, Research Triangle Park, N.C. 27711,
telephone (919) 541-5580.
Docket. Dockets No. A-90-20 and A-89-10, containing the supporting
information for the original NESHAP and this action, are available for
public inspection and copying between 8:00 a.m. and 5:30 p.m., Monday
through Friday, at the EPA's Air and Radiation Docket and Information
Center, Waterside Mall, room M-1500, first floor, 401 M Street SW,
Washington, DC 20460, or by calling (202) 260-7548 or 260 -7549. A
reasonable fee may be charged for copying.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dr. Janet S. Meyer, Emission Standards
Division (MD-13), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Air
Quality Planning and Standards, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina
27711, telephone number (919) 541-5254.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: If no significant, adverse comments are
timely received, no further activity is contemplated in relation to
this proposed rule and the direct final rule in the final rules section
of this Federal Register will automatically go into effect on the date
specified in that rule. If significant adverse comments are timely
received on any provision, that provision of the direct final rule will
be withdrawn and all public comment received on that provision will be
addressed in a subsequent final rule based on the relevant portions of
this proposed rule. Because the Agency will not institute a second
comment period on this proposed rule, any parties interested in
commenting should do so during this comment period.
For further supplemental information, the detailed rationale, and
the rule provisions, see the information provided in the direct final
rule in the [[Page 18079]] final rules section of this Federal
Register.
Executive Order 12866 Review
The HON rule promulgated on April 22, 1994 was considered
``significant'' under Executive Order 12866 and a regulatory impact
analysis (RIA) was prepared. Today's proposed revisions clarify the
rule and do not add any additional control requirements. The EPA
believes that these revisions would have a negligible impact on the
results of the RIA and the change is considered to be within the
uncertainty of the analysis.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 requires the identification
of potentially adverse impacts of Federal regulations upon small
business entities. The Act specifically requires the completion of a
Regulatory Flexibility Analysis in those instances where small business
impacts are possible. Because this rulemaking imposes no adverse
economic impacts, a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis has not been
prepared.
