ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 62

[CA-035-MSWb; FRL-7058-6]


Approval and Promulgation of State Plans for Designated 
Facilities and Pollutants: California

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a revision to the California State 
Plan for implementing the emissions guidelines applicable to existing 
municipal solid waste landfills. The revision to the State Plan was 
submitted by the California Air Resources Board for the State of 
California to satisfy requirements of section 111(d) of the Federal 
Clean Air Act. In the Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA 
is approving the revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal 
because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial action 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. If no significant, material, and adverse 
comments are received in response to this action, no further activity 
is contemplated in relation to this proposed 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relevant adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and 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 proposed rule. EPA will not institute a second 
comment period on this action.

DATES: Comments must be received in writing by October 22, 2001.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Andrew Steckel, 
Rulemaking Office (AIR-4), Air Division, U.S. Environmental Protection 
Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne
