ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 62

[FL-79-9918b; FRL-6352-6]

Approval and Promulgation of State Plans for Designated

Facilities and Pollutants: Florida

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the section 111(d) Plan submitted by

the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) for the State

of Florida on October 28, 1998, for implementing and enforcing the

Emissions Guidelines applicable to existing Municipal Solid Waste

Landfills. The Plan was submitted by the Florida DEP to satisfy certain

Federal Clean Air Act requirements. In the Final Rules section of this

Federal Register, EPA is approving the Florida State Plan submittal as

a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views

this as a noncontroversial submittal 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 and

incorporated herein. 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 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public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 on this proposed rule must be received in writing by

July 6, 1999.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Joey Levasseur at

the EPA Regional Office listed below. Copies of the documents relevant

to this proposed rule are available for public inspection during normal

business hours at the following locations. The interested persons

wanting to examine these documents should make an appointment with the
