ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY 40 CFR Part 63

EPA-R01-OAR-2010-1080; A-1-FRL-9311-1

Approval of the Clean Air Act, Section 112(l), Authority for

Hazardous Air Pollutants: Perchloroethylene Air Emission Standards for

Dry Cleaning Facilities: State of Maine Department of Environmental

Protection

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve Maine Department of Environmental

Protection's (``ME DEP'') request to implement and enforce the amended

Chapter 125 Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaner Regulation as a partial substitution for the amended National Emissions Standards for Hazardous

Air Pollutants for Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning Facilities (``Dry

Cleaning NESHAP''), as it applies to area sources. This approval would make the ME DEP's amended rule federally enforceable. Major sources and dry cleaners installed in a residence between July 13, 2006 and June 24, 2009 would remain subject to the Federal Dry Cleaning NESHAP.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Final Rules Section of this Federal

Register, EPA is approving the State of Maine's Section 112(l) submittal as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the

Agency views this as a noncontroversial submittal 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 rule, 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 If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. EPA will not institute a second comment period. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time. Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on an amendment, paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those provisions of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment.

For additional information, see the direct final rule which is located in the Rules Section of this Federal Register.

Dated: May 13, 2011.

Ira W. Leighton,

Acting Regional Administrator, EPA New England.
