(c) Plan means a plan under section 111(d) of the Act which establishes emission standards for designated pollutants from designated facilities and provides for the implementation and enforcement of such emission standards. (d) Applicable plan means the plan, or most recent revision thereof, which has been approved under §60.27(b) or promulgated under §60.27(d). (e) Emission guideline means a guideline set forth in subpart C of this part, or in a final guideline document published under §60.22(a), which reflect s the degree of emission reduction achievable through the application of the best system of emissi on reduction which (taking into account the cost of such reduction) the Administrator has determined has been adequately demonstrated for designated facilities. (f) Emission standard means a legally enforceable regulation setti ng forth an allowable rate of emissions into the atmosphere, establishing an allowance system, or prescribing equipment specifications for control of air pollution emissions. (g) Compliance schedule means a legally enforceable schedule specifying a date or dates by which a source or category of sources must comply with specific emission standa rds contained in a plan or with any increments of progress to achieve such compliance. (h) Increments of progress means steps to achieve compliance which must be taken by an owner or operator of a designated facility, including: (1) Submittal of a final control plan for the designated facility to the appropriate air pollution control agency; (2) Awarding of contracts for emission control system s or for process modifications, or issuance of orders for the purchase of component parts to ac complish emission control or process modification; (3) Initiation of on-site construction or installati on of emission control equipment or process change; (4) Completion of on-site construction or installati on of emission control equipment or process change; and(5) Final compliance.

- holding requirement. §60.22 Publication of guideline documents, emissi on guidelines, and final compliance times. (a) Concurrently upon or after proposal of standard s of performance for the control of a designated pollutant from affected facilities, the Administrator will publish a draft guideline document containing information pertinent to control of the designated pollutant form designated facilities. Notice of the availability of the draft guideline document will be published in the Federal Register and public comments on its contents will be invited. After consideration of public comments and upon or after promulgation of standards of performance for control of a designated pollutant from affected facilities, a final guideline document will be published and notice of its availability will be published in theFederal Register. (b) Guideline documents published under this section will provide information for the development of State plans, such as: (1) Information concerning known or suspected endange rment of public health or welfare caused, or contributed to, by the designated pollutant. (2) A description of systems of emission reduction wh ich, in the judgment of the Administrator, have been adequately demonstrated. (3) Information on the degree of emission reduction wh ich is achievable with each system, together with information on the costs and environmental effects of applying each system to designated facilities.

(b) If no designated facility is located within a State, th e State shall submit a letter of certification to that effect to the Administrator within the time specified in paragraph (a) of this section. Such certification shall exempt the State from the requirements of this subpart for that designated pollutant. (c)(1) Except as provided in paragraphs (c)(2) and (c)( 3) of this section, the State shall, prior to the adoption of any plan or revision thereof, conduct one or more public hearings within the State on such plan or plan revision. (2) No hearing shall be required for any change to an increment of progress in an approved compliance schedule unless the change is likely to cause the facility to be unable to comply with the final compliance date in the schedule. (3) No hearing shall be required on an emission standard in effect prior to the effective date of this subpart if it was adopted after a public hearing and is at least as stringent as the corresponding emission guideline specified in the applicable guideline document published under §60.22(a). (d) Any hearing required by paragraph (c) of this se ction shall be held only after reasonable notice. Notice shall be given at least 30 days prior to the date of such hearing and shall include: (1) Notification to the public by prominently advertis ing the date, time, and place of such hearing in each region affected; (2) Availability, at the time of public announcement, of each proposed plan or revision thereof for public inspection in at least one location in each region to which it will apply; (3) Notification to the Administrator; (4) Notification to each local air pollution control agency in each region to which the plan or revision will apply; and (5) In the case of an interstate region, notification to any other State included in the region.

The Administrator may impose such conditions on his approval as he deems necessary. Procedures approved under this section shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of this su bpart regarding procedures for public hearings. §60.24 Emission standards and compliance schedules. (a) Each plan shall include emission standards and compliance schedules. (b)(1) Emission standards shall either be based on an allowance system or prescribe allowable rates of emissions except when it is clearly impracticable. Such cases will be identified in the guideline documents issued under §60.22. Where emission standa rds prescribing equipment specifications are established, the plan shall, to the degree possi ble, set forth the emission reductions achievable by implementation of such specifications, and may perm it compliance by the use of equipment determined by the State to be equivalent to that prescribed. (2) Test methods and procedures for determining compliance with the emission standards shall be specified in the plan. Methods other than those specif ied in appendix A to this part may be specified in the plan if shown to be equivalent or alternative methods as defined in §60.2 (t) and (u). (3) Emission standards shall apply to all designated facilities within the State. A plan may contain emission standards adopted by local jurisdictions provided that the standards are enforceable by the State. (c) Except as provided in paragraph (f) of this section, where th e Administrator has determined that a designated pollutant may cause or contribute to en dangerment of public health, emission standards shall be no less stringent than the corresponding emission gui deline(s) specified in subpart C of this part, and final compliance shall be required as expeditiously as practicable but no later than the compliance times specified in subpart C of this part. (d) Where the Administrator has determined that a designated pollutant may cause or contribute to endangerment of public welfare but that adverse eff ects on public health have not been demonstrated, States may balance the emission guidelines, complia nce times, and other information provided in the applicable guideline document against other f actors of public concern in establishing emission standards, compliance schedules, and variances. Appr opriate consideration shall be given to the factors specified in §60.22(b) and to information presented at the public hearing(s) conducted under §60.23(c). (e)(1) Any compliance schedule extending more than 12 months from the date required for submittal of the plan must include legally enforceable increments of progress to achieve compliance for each designated facility or category of facilities. Unless otherwise spec ified in the applicable subpart, increments of progress must include, where prac ticable, each increment of progress specified in §60.21(h) and must include such additional increments of progress as may be necessary to permit close and effective supervision of progress toward final compliance. (2) A plan may provide that compliance schedules for individual sources or cate gories of sources will be formulated after plan submittal. Any such schedule shall be the subject of a public hearing held according to §60.23 and shall be submitted to the Admini strator within 60 days after the date of adoption of the schedule but in no case later than the date prescribed for submittal of the first semiannual report required by §60.25(e).
