Approval and Promulgation of State Plan for Designated Facilities and Pollutants; Florida: Emissions Guidelines for Small Municipal Waste Combustion Units

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the Clean Air Act (CAA) section 111(d)/129 State Plan submitted by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (Florida DEP) for the State of Florida on November 29, 2001, and subsequently updated on March 11, 2005. The State Plan is for implementing and enforcing the Emissions Guidelines applicable to existing Small Municipal Waste Combustion (SMWC) units. The State Plan was submitted by Florida DEP to satisfy CAA requirements. In the Rules Section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving Florida's State Plan revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial plan and anticipates no adverse comments. A

If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. The EPA will not institute a second comment period on this rule. Any parties interested in commenting on this document should do so at this time.
