NOTICE: PROPOSED RULES
ACTION: Air pollutants, hazardous; national emission standards:
DOCUMENT ACTION: Proposed rule.
SUBJECT CATEGORY: Approval of Section 112(l) Authority for Hazardous Air Pollutants; Equivalency by Permit Provisions; National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants From the Pulp and Paper Industry; State of North Carolina
DATES: Written comments must be received on or before May 12, 2004.
DOCUMENT SUMMARY: On August 26, 2003, the EPA published in the Federal Register
a direct final rule to approve the North Carolina Department of
Environment and Natural Resources (NC DENR) equivalency by permit
program, pursuant to section 112(l) of the Clean Air Act, to implement
and enforce State permit terms and conditions that substitute for the
National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants from the Pulp
and Paper Industry and the National Emission Standards for Hazardous
Air Pollutants for Chemical Recovery Combustion Sources at Kraft, Soda,
Sulfite and StandAlone Semichemical Pulp Mills, for the International
Paper Riegelwood mill in Riegelwood, North Carolina. Today's action is
taken to amend the approval of NC DENR's section 112(l) authority for
hazardous air pollutants, equivalency by permit provisions, in order to
extend its coverage to include the following four mills: International
Paper Roanoke Rapids mill in Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina; Blue Ridge
Paper Products in Canton, North Carolina; Weyerhaeuser New Bern
facility in New Bern, North Carolina; and the Weyerhaeuser Plymouth
facility in Plymouth, North Carolina. In the Rules section of this
Federal Register, EPA is granting NC DENR the authority to implement
and enforce alternative requirements in the form of title V permit
terms and conditions for the additional four North Carolina mills,
after EPA has approved the state's alternative requirements. A detailed
rationale for this approval is set forth in the final rule amendment.
If no significant, material, and adverse comments are received in response to this rule, no further activity is
[[Page 19140]]
contemplated. If EPA receives adverse comments, the final rule
amendment will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be
addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this rule. The EPA will
not institute a second comment period on this document. Any parties
interested in commenting on this document should do so at this time.
SUMMARY: Pulp and paper industry,
