40 CFR Part 62

[NV-AM-NMI-103-NEGDECb; FRL-7572-6]


Approval and Promulgation of State Air Quality Plans for 
Designated Facilities and Pollutants; Control of Emissions From 
Existing Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerator Units; Control 
of Emissions From Existing Large Municipal Waste Combustors; Nevada;

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve the negative declarations 
submitted by air pollution control agencies in Nevada, American Samoa, 
and Northern Mariana Islands. Each negative declaration certifies that 
certain combustion units, which are subject to the requirements of 
sections 111(d) and 129 of the Clean Air Act, do not exist within the 
relevant agency's air pollution control jurisdiction.

DATES: Comments must be received in writing by November 10, 2003.

ADDRESSES: Mail comments to Andrew Steckel, Rulemaking Office Chief 
(AIR-4), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IX, 75 Hawthorne 
Street, San Francisco, CA 94105-3901, or e-mail to 
[email protected], or submit comments at http://www.regulations.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mae Wang, EPA Region IX, (415) 947-
4124, [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposal addresses Clean Air Act 
section 111(d)/129 negative declarations submitted by air pollution 
control agencies in Nevada, American Samoa, and Northern Mariana 
Islands certifying that certain types of combustion units do not exist 
within their air pollution control jurisdictions. For further 
information, please see the information provided in the direct final 
action, with the same title, that is located in the ``Rules and 
Regulations'' section of this Federal Register publication. If no 
adverse comments are received in response to this action, no further 
activity will be 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direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received 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. EPA will not institute a second comment period. Any parties 
interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time. 
Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on an amendment, 
paragraph, or section of this rule and if that provision may be severed 
from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those provisions 
of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment.

    Dated: September 25, 2003.
Deborah Jordan,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region IX.
