National Perchloroethylene Air Emission Standards for Dry Cleaning Facilities Technology Review; 
Correction  
TITLE: National Perchloroethylene Air Emission Standards for Dry Cleaning Facilities Technology 
Review; Correction  
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)  
ACTION: Proposed rule; correction  
SUMMARY: On 27 December 2021, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed 
amendments to the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for dry 
cleaning facilities using perchloroethylene (PCE) as the cleaning solvent (PCE Dry Cleaning NESHAP). 
The proposed amendments addres sed the results of the technology review for the PCE Dry Cleaning 
NESHAP, in accordance with section 112 of the Clean Air Act (CAA). This action is being issued to 
correct a typographical error which stated that we would hold a virtual public hearing if an yone 
contacted us requesting a public hearing on or before 11 January 2022 (i.e., 15 days after publication 
of the proposed rule). However, that same notice also said that if requested, the virtual hearing 
would be held on 11 January 2022. Logistically, we  cannot have the same date for both actions 
because we need to know several days ahead of time whether stakeholders request a hearing so 
that we have sufficient time to plan accordingly and make all the necessary arrangements. For most 
proposed rules, the EPA states that if anyone contacts us requesting a public hearing on or before a 
date five days after publication of the proposed rule, that the EPA will hold such public hearing on a 
date 15 days after publication of such rule. To correct this error, in t his correction notice, EPA states 
that if anyone contacts us requesting a public hearing on or before 10 January 2022 the virtual 
hearing will be held on 20 January 2022. As described below, several other dates regarding the 
preparations for such hearing a nd the deadline for submitting public comments have also been 
revised accordingly.  
 
DATES: Comments on the proposed rule that was published in the Federal Register on 27 December 
2021 (86 FR 73207) must be received on or before 22 February 2022.  
 
Public hearing: If anyone contacts the EPA  requesting a public hearing on or before 10 January, EPA 
will hold a virtual public hearing on 20 January 2022.  
See SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION in this 5 January 2022 Proposed rule; correction  for information 
on requesting and registering for a public hearing.
