40 CFR Part 62
[EPA-R05-OAR-2013-0372; FRL-9820-9]
Proposal for Sewage Sludge Incinerators State Plan for Designated
Facilities and Pollutants; Indiana
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve, through direct final rulemaking,
Indiana's State Plan to control air pollutants from Sewage Sludge
Incinerators (SSI). The Indiana Department of Environmental Management
submitted the State Plan on February 27, 2013, following the required
public process. The State Plan is consistent with the Emission
Guidelines promulgated by EPA on March 21, 2011. This approval means
that EPA finds that the State Plan meets applicable Clean Air Act
requirements for subject SSI units. Once effective, this approval also
makes the State Plan Federally enforceable.
DATES: Comments must be received on or before July 11, 2013.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Rules section of this Federal
Register, EPA is approving the State's 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direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received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: May 28, 2013.
