40 CFR Part 62

[KY 111-9914b; FRL-6325-9]

Approval and Promulgation of State Plans for Designated

Facilities and Pollutants: Kentucky

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

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

the Kentucky Division for Air Quality (DAQ) for the Commonwealth of

Kentucky on December 3, 1998, for implementing and enforcing the

Emissions Guidelines applicable to existing Municipal Solid Waste

Landfills. The Plan was submitted by the Kentucky DAQ to satisfy

certain Federal Clean Air Act requirements. In the Final Rules Section

of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the Kentucky 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. If no significant, material, and adverse comments are received in

response to this rule, 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final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be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 must be received in writing by May 20, 1999.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Karla McCorkle 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

appropriate office at least 24 hours before the day of the visit.
