[EPA-R05-OAR-2008-0952; FRL-8687-9]

 
Direct Final Approval of Revised Municipal Waste Combustor State 
Plan for Designated Facilities and Pollutants: Indiana

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

[[Page 38955]]

SUMMARY: EPA is approving revisions to Indiana's State Plan to control 
air pollutants from large Municipal Waste Combustors (MWC). The Indiana 
Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) submitted the State Plan 
on August 24, 2007. The revisions are consistent with Emission 
Guideline (EG) amendments promulgated by EPA on May 10, 2006. This 
approval means that EPA finds that the State Plan amendments meet 
applicable Clean Air Act (Act) requirements for large MWCs for which 
construction commenced on or before September 20, 1994. Once effective, 
this approval also makes the amended State Plan Federally enforceable.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before August 7, 2008.

OAR-2008-0952, by one of the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Rules section of this Federal 
Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP 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 rule, 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direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received 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. 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. For 
additional information, see the direct final rule which is located in 
the Rules section of this Federal Register.

    Dated: June 24, 2008.

Acting Regional Administrator, Region 5.
