SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 16, 1995, the Director of Wayne 
County, Michigan's Air Quality Management Division, requested a 
determination on the applicability of the New Source Performance 
Standards for New Stationary Sources (NSPS) to a ``waste-to-energy'' 
conversion project proposed by the Central Wayne Energy Limited 
Partnership for the municipal waste combustor facility located in 
Dearborn Heights, Michigan. After requesting and receiving additional 
clarifying information, EPA responded to Wayne County's request by 
means of a letter dated October 11, 1996. EPA determined that each of 
the MWC units at the facility will become subject to the NSPS for 
municipal waste combustors (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart Eb, as promulgated 
on December 19, 1995). This determination was based on the NSPS and 
emissions guidelines that were published in the Federal Register on 
December 19, 1995, and codified at 40 CFR Part 60, Subparts Eb and Cb, 
respectively.
    In addition to the publication of this action, EPA is placing a 
copy of this determination on its Technology Transfer Network (TTN) 
bulletin board service.
