Dear Dr. Hedman: DAN WYANT DIRECTOR



### SUBJECT: Supplement to Michigan State Implementation Plan (SIP) Submittal of Revisions to Part 4 Rules

On February 14, 2014, the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) submitted the promulgated revisions to "Part 4. Emission Limitations and ProhibitionsSulfur-Bearing Compounds" rules for the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (USEPA's) review and approval for inclusion in the Michigan SIP. The MDEQ also requested that certain portions of the Wayne County Ordinance, as amended, be removed from the SIP as they are being replaced by the amended Part 4 rules.

As indicated in the submittal, one of the rules promulgated was R 336.1401 a of the Michigan Air Pollution Control Rules. The rule states, in part:
(c) "Used oil" means any fuel that is produced from used oil, as defined in R 299.91 09(p).

R 299.91 09(p) of the Michigan Hazardous Waste Management Rules states:
(p) "Used oil" means any oil which has been refined from crude oil, or any synthetic oil, which has been used and which as a result of the use, is contaminated by physical or chemical impurities.

The USEPA correctly pointed out in a conversation with the·MDE0's·Air Quality Division (AQD) on May 13, 2014, that R 299.9109(p) is not part of Michigan's existing SIP.

We request that this document be accepted as a supplement to our original submittal of February 14, 2014. We also request that R 299.9109(p) be approved by the USEPA into the Michigan SIP. An opportunity for public comment and hearing was provided for during the promulgation of R299.9109(p) as partof'alargenule package that became effective on September 11, 2000. Enclosed is documentation to demonstrate that the rule underwent appropriate public notification before promulgation.

Agency Contact The Department of Environmental Quality (Department) contact person for the proposed revisions of the administrative rules promulgated pursuant to Part 111, Hazardous Waste Management, of Michigan's Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451,
as amended (Act 451 ), is Ms. Ronda 

### L. Slayer, Environmental Engineering Specialist, Waste Management Division (WMD). Ms. Slayer may be reached at 517-373-9548, or by facsimile at 517-373-4797.

Purpose of Proposed Revisions to the Administrative Rules On October 30, 1986, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) granted final authorization to Michigan to administer the state's hazardous waste management program (state program) in lieu of the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) hazardous waste management program (RCRA program). The dynamic nature of the RCRA program and the state's desire to maintain a quality state program require that the Department continually revise Part 111 of Act 451 and the administrative rules promulgated pursuant thereto. Once adopted, the proposed revisions.contained·in this administrative rules package will represent the seventh amendment to the administrative rules since Michigan received base program authorization.

The purpose of the proposed revisions to the administrative rules is to:

Maintain federal authorization to administer the state program in lieu of the RCRA program.
Improve .the overall quality of the rules, both in terms of clarification of existing requirements and areas of program coverage.

Reduce the regulatory barriers to the regulated community.

Incorporate revisions resulting from the enactment of Act 138 of 1998, Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, regarding hazardous waste transporters.

Contents of Proposed Revisions to the Administrative Rules General information regarding the content·of the proposed administrative rules package is provided in the Background Section of this report. This section segregates the proposed revisions according to those revisions that are being made pursuant to RCRA program changes and are necessary to maintain authorization, and those revisions that are being initiated by the state and are not specifically required by the U.S. EPA. A more detailed discussion of the proposed revisions is provided in the Summary, Rationale, and Effect of Change Section of this report. Those areas ofthe rules,that have been significantly modified since the last draft of the proposed rules package are noted in this section. A copy of the proposed administrative rules package in strike/cap format is provided in Appendix A. To assist persons in reviewing the package, the revisions based on federal changes are denoted by shadowed text while revisions based on state recommendations are denoted by outlined text.

Public Participation ProcessThe administrative rules promulgation process involves many steps. A major component of the promulgation process is public participation. A general overview of both the informal and formal public participation activities conducted to date is provided below.

Informal Public Participation In accordance with Executive Order (E.O.) 1995-6, a Request for Rulemaking was filed with the Office of Regulatory Reform (ORR) prior to proceeding further with the informal public participation process. The Request for Regulatory Reform was approved on January 29, 1999. The Department prepared one draft of the proposed administrative rules package and solicited comment internally from staff with expertise in various areas of the state program, and from the U.S. EPA, Region.5. All of the comments received as part of these initial reviews were evaluated and the necessary revisions incorporated into a new proposed administrative rules package. Notification of the availability of the proposed administrative rules package for review and comment was provided to persons on the WMD's Hazardous Waste Management Program Short List {Short List) on April28, 1999. The Short List is composed of approximately 60 persons that represent major hazardous waste management facilities in Michigan and other interested parties, including trade associations, major consulting firms, and environmental groups. Staff and the U.S. EPA also reviewed the proposed administrative rules package in conjunction with the Short List distribution. The informal comment period ended on June 2, 1999. A list of those persons that provided comment during the Short List distribution is included in Appendix B. After the close of the informal comment period, the Department reviewed all of the comments received, revised the proposed administrative rules package accordingly, and prepared this administrative rules report in an effort to assist those persons reviewing the package in conjunction with the formal public participation process.

Formal Public Participation Following the completion of the informal public participation process, the formal public participation process was initiated. As part of the formal public participation process, the proposed administrative rules·packagewas reviewed by staff internally, the U.S. EPA, the Legislative Service Bureau (LSB), and the ORR. On October 14, 1999, the Department provided written notification to persons on the WMD's Hazardous Waste Management Program Long List (Long List) of the availability of the proposed administrative rules package and the associated administrative rules report, the opportunity to comment, and the upcoming public hearing. The Long List is composed of approximately 400 persons interested in the state program. The proposed administrative rules package, Notice of Public Hearing, and Small Business Economic Impact Statement (see Appendix C) were published in the Michigan Register on October 31, 1999. On October 25, 1999, the Department prepared and executed a Regulatory Impact Statement for the ORR in accordance with E.O. 1995-6.

In conjunction with the referenced reviews, the Department scheduled a public hearing to solicit comment on the proposed administrative rules package. Notice of the public hearing was published in the Department calendar on October 25, 1999. The Notice of Public Hearing was published in the following newspapers on November 1, 1999, with the exception of the Zone 8 Detroit News/Free Press -Detroit area only which was published on November 3, 1999:

The Flint Journal; The Grand Rapids Press; The Lansing State Journal; The Marquette Mining Journal; and The Zone 8 Detroit News/Free Press

The formal public comment period ended on December 17, 1999. The names, affiliations, and addresses of those persons outside of the Department who attended the public hearing and/or submitted written comments are included in Appendix D.

Following the close of the formal public comment period, all comments received during the comment period were evaluated and the necessary revisions inco[porated into a new proposed administrative rules package and administrative rules report, as appropriate. Additionally, the Department prepared a Responsiveness Summary which outlines all of the substantive comments received and the Department responses thereto. A copy of the Responsiveness Summary is included in Appendix E.

Formal ApprovalsThe proposed administrative rules package was submitted to the LSB and the ORR for formal certification. The package was formally certified by the LSB on May 30, 2000, and by the ORR

on June 19, 2000.

Proposed Rules·More Stringent Than Federal Regulations The proposed administrative rules package contains some provisions which are more stringent than similar federal regulations. The provisions cover several general topic areas.

The basis of the above referenced provisions is protection of human health and the environment. The proposed revisions are necessary to provide needed clarification of existing administrative rules, to improve the overall quality of the administrative rules, and to provide consistency with other state law. In many instances, the Department has proposed revisions to existing state requirements that are already more stringent than existing federal requirements. A detailed discussion of the proposed revisions is provided in the Summary, Rationale, and Effect of Change Section of this report.

Disbursement Per Headlee Constitutional Amendment, 1979 PA 101 The proposed rules require no disbursement under the Headlee Constitutional Amendment, 1979 PA 101.
