 AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
 ACTION: Proposed rule.
 SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to amend the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Polyvinyl Chloride and Copolymers Production Area Sources. In addition to this proposed rule, the EPA is publishing a direct final rule that withdraws the total non-vinyl chloride organic hazardous air pollutant (TOHAP) area source process wastewater emission standards for new and existing polyvinyl chloride and copolymers area sources. If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action on this proposed rule.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Why is the EPA issuing this proposed rule? The EPA is proposing this rule to take action on amendments to the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Polyvinyl Chloride and Copolymers Production Area Sources (40 CFR part 63, subpart DDDDDD). We are proposing to withdraw the area source process wastewater emission standards for new and existing sources in Tables 1 and 2 of 40 CFR part 63, subpart DDDDDD. In addition, the EPA has published a direct final rule withdrawing the area source process wastewater TOHAP emission standards in the “Rules and Regulations” section of this 
                    **Federal Register**
                     because we view this as a noncontroversial action and anticipate no adverse comment. We have explained our reasons for this action in the preamble to the direct final rule. If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take further action on this proposed rule. If we receive adverse comment on a distinct portion of the direct final rule, we will withdraw that portion of the rule and it will not take effect. In this instance, we would address all public comments in any subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. If we receive adverse comment on a distinct provision of the direct final rule, we will publish a timely withdrawal in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     indicating which provisions we are withdrawing. The provisions that are not withdrawn will become effective on the date set out in the direct final rule, notwithstanding adverse comment on any other provision. We do not intend to institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time. The regulatory text for this proposal is identical to that for the direct final rule published in the “Rules and Regulations” section of this 
                    **Federal Register**
                    . For further supplementary information, the detailed rationale for this proposal and the regulatory 
                    ( print page 6036)
                    revisions, see the direct final rule published in a separate part of this 
                    **Federal Register**
                    . II. Does this action apply to me? Categories and entities potentially regulated by this proposed rule include: Category

 This table is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather provides a guide for readers regarding entities likely to be regulated by this proposed rule. To determine whether your facility would be regulated by this proposed rule, you should examine the applicability criteria in 40 CFR 63.11140. If you have any questions regarding the applicability of this action to a particular entity, consult either the air permitting authority for the entity or your EPA regional representative as listed in 40 CFR 63.13.
