ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 62

[TN-219-2-200008b; FRL-6539-5]


Approval and Promulgation of State Plans for Designated 
Facilities and Pollutants; Tennessee; Approval of 111(d) Plan for 
Municipal Solid Waste Landfills in Chattanooga-Hamilton County

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the section 111(d) Plan for 
Chattanooga-Hamilton County submitted by the State of Tennessee, 
through the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC) 
on April 26, 1999, for implementing and enforcing the Emissions 
Guidelines applicable to existing Municipal Solid Waste Landfills. The 
Plan was submitted by the Tennessee DEC to satisfy certain Federal 
Clean Air Act requirements. In the Final Rules section of this Federal 
Register, the EPA is approving the Chattanooga-Hamilton County Plan 
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, 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all 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 March 24, 2000.

ADDRESSES: All comments should be addressed to: Allison Humphris at the 
EPA, Region 4 Air Planning Branch, 61 Forsyth Street, SW, Atlanta, 
Georgia 30303.

addresses for inspection during normal business hours:
