by revising paragraph 14. to read as

follows:

Appendix C to § 327.30 Shoreline Use

Permit Conditions

* * * * *

14. On all new docks and boat mooring

buoys, flotation shall be extruded

polystyrene, expanded polystyrene, or a

copolymer of polythylene and polystyrene

moldable foam all with 0.9 lbs./cu. ft.

minimum density. No-foam modular blocks

using interior air chambers for flotation with

a minimum wall thickness of .25′′ may also

be used. On all foam products, water

absorption shall be less than 3.0 lbs./cu. ft at

seven days when a 1/16 cu. ft. cube

(5′′×5′′×4.32′′) is imersed under 1⁄2′′ head of

water for seven days and dripped for five

seconds before weighing. All systems using

foam (except extruded polystyrene foam)

must encase the foam totally with concrete,

galvanized steel, aluminum, recycled plastic

lumber, polyethylene, fiberglass, or tough

flexible plastic. Reuse of plastic, metal, or

other previously used drums or containers

for encasement or flotation purpose is

prohibited. The encasement shall be

designed to resist puncture and penetration

by floating debris, boats, animals or other

sources. In addition, the protective coating

encasement shall be warranted by the

manufacturer for a period of at least eight

years against cracking, peeling, sloughing

and deterioration from ultra violet rays.

Extruded polystyrene foam products must be

warranted for a period of at least eight years

against cracking, peeling, sloughing and

determination from ulta violet rays. Extruded

polystyrene flotation shall be designed to

resist puncture and penetration by floating

debris, boats, animals or other sources.

Manufacturers of no-foam modular blocks

using interior air chambers for flotation must

warrant their products for a period of at least

eight years against cracking, peeling,

sloughing and deterioration from ultra violet

rays. Any flotation which is within 40 feet of

a line carrying fuel shall, in addition to the

requirements for protective coating

mentioned above, be 100% impervious to

water and fuel. Existing flotation is

authorized until it has severely deteriorated

and is no longer serviceable or capable of

supporting the structure, at which time it

shall be replaced with approved flotation.

For any floats installed after the effective date

of this specification, repair or replacement is

required when the foam becomes visible

through the encasement protective covering,

or the float no longer performs its designed

function.

Revision of New Source Performance

Standards for the Phosphate Fertilizer

Industry: Granular Triple

Superphosphate Storage Facilities

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection

Agency (Agency) proposes to clarify the

coverage of the new source performance

standards (NSPS) to limit their

applicability to those facilities which

store fresh granular triple

superphosphate (GTSP). As a result of

the proposed revisions, the NSPS would

include a work practice through which

manufacturers would hold fresh GTSP

in storage until it had cured prior to

shipment to their customers. The

proposed revisions would limit the

testing and recordkeeping requirements

of Subpart X to only those facilities

associated with the manufacture of

GTSP and, thereby, remove any

recordkeeping burden currently

imposed upon downstream distributors

and users of this product.

In the Final Rules section of this

Federal Register, the Agency is making

these revisions without prior proposal.

A detailed rationale for the action is set

forth in the direct final rule. If no

adverse comments are received in

response to that direct final rule, no

further activity is contemplated in

relation to this proposed rule. If the

Agency receives adverse comments, the

direct final rule will be withdrawn and

all public comments received will be

addressed in a subsequent final rule

based on this proposed rule. The

Agency will address those comments in

a subsequent final rule based on this

proposed rule. Any rules for which no

adverse or critical comment is received

will become final after the designated

period. The Agency will not institute a

second comment period on this

document. Any parties interested in

commenting on this document should

do so at this time.

DATES: Comments on this action must be

received by May 15, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Interested parties may

submit written comments (in duplicate

if possible) to Public Docket No. A–97–

4 at the following address: U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency, Air

and Radiation Docket and Information

Center (6102), 401 M Street, S.W.,

Washington, D.C. 20460. The Agency

requests that a separate copy also be

sent to the contact person listed below.

The docket is located at the above

address in Room M–1500, Waterside

Mall (ground floor), and may be

inspected from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday

through Friday. The docket is an

organized and complete file of all the

information submitted to or otherwise

considered by the Agency in the

development of this rulemaking.

of this action, contact Mr. David Painter
