ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 63
[EPA-R01-OAR-2010-1080; A-1-FRL-9311-1]
Approval of the Clean Air Act, Section 112(l), Authority for
Hazardous Air Pollutants: Perchloroethylene Air Emission Standards for
Dry Cleaning Facilities: State of Maine Department of Environmental
Protection
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve Maine Department of Environmental
Protection's (``ME DEP'') request to implement and enforce the amended
Chapter 125 Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaner Regulation as a partial
substitution for the amended National Emissions Standards for Hazardous
Air Pollutants for Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning Facilities (``Dry
Cleaning NESHAP''), as it applies to area sources. This approval would
make the ME DEP's amended rule federally enforceable. Major sources and
dry cleaners installed in a residence between July 13, 2006 and June
24, 2009 would remain subject to the Federal Dry Cleaning NESHAP.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Final Rules Section of this Federal
Register, EPA is approving the State of Maine's Section 112(l)
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 action 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receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and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: May 13, 2011.

Acting Regional Administrator, EPA New England.
