Designated Facilities and Pollutants; West Virginia; Control of 
Emissions From Existing Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerators

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve the West Virginia hospital/
medical/infectious waste incinerator (HMIWI) 111(d)/129 plan submitted 
on August 18, 1999 by the West Virginia Division of Environmental 
Protection (WV DEP), and the subsequent plan amendment of April 19, 
2000. The plan establishes emission limitations for existing HMIWIs, 
and provides for the implementation and enforcement of those 
limitations. In the final rules section of today's Federal Register, 
EPA is approving the plan. A detailed rationale for the approval is set 
forth in the direct final rule. If no adverse comments are received in 
response to that rule, no further activity is contemplated in relation 
to this rule. If EPA receives relevant 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final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be 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 rule. 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: Comments must be received in writing by July 13, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Makeba A. Morris, Chief, Technical 
Assessment Branch, Mailcode 3AP22, Environmental Protection Agency, 
Region III, 1650 Arch Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103-2029.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: James B. Topsale at (215) 814-2190, or 
by e-mail at [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: See the information provided in the direct 
final rule, of the same title, which is located in the rules section of 
the Federal Register.
