existing Municipal Solid Waste Landfills. The Plan was submitted by the 
South Carolina DHEC to satisfy certain Federal Clean Air Act 
requirements. In the Final Rules Section of this Federal Register, EPA 
is approving the South Carolina State Plan submittal as a direct final 
rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a 
noncontroversial submittal 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 and incorporated by 
reference herein. If no significant, material, and adverse comments are 
received in response to this proposed 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public 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 rule based on 
this proposed rule. EPA will not institute a second comment period on 
this action.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by 
September 23, 1999.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Gregory Crawford at 
the EPA Regional Office listed below. Copies of the documents relevant 
to this proposed rule are available for public inspection during normal 
business hours at the following locations. The interested persons 
wanting to examine these documents should make an appointment with the
