ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 62
[CA 013-MSWb; FRL-6440-1]
Approval and Promulgation of State Plans for Designated
Facilities and Pollutants: California
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve the California State Plan for
implementing the emissions guidelines applicable to existing municipal
solid waste (MSW) landfills. The Plan was submitted by the California
Air Resources Board (CARB) for the State of California to satisfy
requirements of section 111(d) of the Federal Clean Air Act. In the
Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the
California State Plan as a direct final rule without prior proposal
because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial action and
anticipates that it will not receive any significant, material, and
adverse comments. A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in
the direct final rule. If no significant, material, and adverse
comments are received in response to this action, no further activity
is contemplated in relation to this proposed rule. If EPA receives
relevant adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and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. EPA will not institute a second
comment period on this action.
DATES: Comments must be received in writing by October 25, 1999.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Andrew Steckel,
Rulemaking Office (AIR-4), Air Division, U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 94105-3901.
Copies of the documents relevant to this proposed rule are
available for public inspection at EPA's Region IX office during normal
business hours. Copies of the submitted State Plan are also available
for inspection at the following location: California Air Resources
Board, Stationary Source Division, Rule Evaluation Section, 2020 ``L''
Street, Sacramento, CA 95812.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Patricia A. Bowlin, (AIR-4), Air
Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne
Street, San Francisco, CA 94105-3901, Telephone: (415) 744-1188.

Register.
