Section 112(l) Proposal of the State of Florida's Rule Adjustment to the National Perchloroethylene Air Emission Standards for Dry Cleaning Facilities

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve the adjustment of the ``National Perchloroethylene Air Emission Standards for Dry Cleaning Facilities,'' (PERC) National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP), delegated to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). This PERC NESHAP delegated to the State of Florida is approved through the section 112(l) procedures outlined in 40 CFR 63.92 and 63.91 of section 112 of the Clean Air Act as amended in 1990. On April 9, 1999, the State of Florida submitted a request for adjustment to the requirements of 40 CFR 63.10(b)5. The requested adjustment by FDEP would allow the periodic startup, shutdown, and malfunction reports in 40 CFR 63.10(d)(5) of the General Provisions, to be retained on site at area source PERC NESHAP affected facilities instead of submitting them to the delegated agency. EPA has reviewed this 112(l) adjustment request and determined that the FDEP has satisfied the necessary criteria of a complete submittal as specified in 63.92 and 63.91.

In the Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the section 112(l) adjustment of Florida's delegated PERC NESHAP as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial action 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, 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 If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. 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: Written comments must be received on or before January 27, 2000.

ADDRESSES: All comments should be addressed to: Leonardo Ceron, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4, Air and Radiation Technology Branch, Atlanta Federal Center, 61 Forsyth Street, SW, Atlanta, Georgia 30303; ceron.leonardo@epamail. epa.gov. Copies of Florida's original submittal and accompanying documentation are available for public review during normal business hours, at the address listed above.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Leonardo Ceron, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4, Air and Radiation Technology Branch, Atlanta Federal Center, 61 Forsyth Street S.W., Atlanta, GA 30303, Phone: (404) 562-9129; ceron.leonardo@epamail.epa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: For additional information, see the direct final rule which is published in the Rules section of this Federal Register.

Dated: December 3, 1999. A. Stanley Meiburg, Acting Regional Administrator, Region 4.
