ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[NC-043-1-9618b; FRL-5609-2]
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plan, North Carolina:
Approval of Cape Industries, Air Permit No. 130R17
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On August 17, 1989, the State of North Carolina issued to Cape
Industries, located in Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina,
air permit number 130R11, which set the sulfur dioxide emission limit
at 2.3 pounds per million British Thermal Units (BTU). The State then
submitted this permit to EPA on September 21, 1989, for approval as a
revision to the State implementation plan (SIP). Air permit number
130R11 expired on October 1, 1991, and was subsequently replaced by the
current Cape Industries air permit number 130R17 in December 29, 1994.
Upon review of the permit, EPA finds that the designated limit for Cape
Industries is adequate to protect the ambient standard and approves
this permit. In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the
EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as a direct final rule
without prior proposal because the EPA views this as a noncontroversial
revision amendment 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 that direct final rule, no
further activity is contemplated in relation to this proposed rule. If
EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn
and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent
final 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: To be considered, comments must be received by October 21, 1996.
ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to Mr.
Randy Terry at the EPA Regional Office listed below.
Copies of the documents relative to this action are available for
