ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

AGENCY

[FRL–7004–5]

Proposed Settlement Agreement,

Clean Air Act Petition for Review

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of proposed settlement

agreement providing for rulemaking to

amend regulations issued pursuant to

section 112(d) of the Clean Air Act.

SUMMARY: EPA hereby gives notice of a

proposed settlement agreement in the

case entitled American Coke and Coal

Chemicals Inst. v. EPA, No. 99–1339

(consolidated with American Crop Prot.

Ass’n v. EPA, No. 99–1332) (D.C. Cir.).

EPA issues this notice in accordance

with section 113(g) of the Clean Air Act

(the ‘‘Act’’), 42 U.S.C. 7413(g),which

requires EPA to give notice and provide

an opportunity for public comment on

proposed settlement agreements.

The litigation challenges EPA’s

promulgation of the final rule entitled

National Emissions Standards for

Hazardous Air Pollutants: Pesticide

Active Ingredient Production (‘‘PAI

NESHAP’’ or the ‘‘rule’’). 64 FR 33550

(June 23, 1999). The American Coke and

Coal Chemicals Institute (‘‘ACCCI’’)

filed a petition for review of the rule

under section 307(b) of the Act, 42

U.S.C. 7607(b). ACCCI’s challenge

concerns, among other things, the

applicability of the rule to coal tar

distillation units that produce creosote.

The proposed Settlement Agreement

provides that EPA will undertake a

rulemaking to revise the definition of

‘‘process tank’’ to eliminate the current

reference to processing upstream and

downstream of such tanks, and to

provide additional examples of the

types of tanks covered by the definition.

For a period of thirty (30) days

following the date of publication of this

notice, EPA will accept written

comments relating to the proposed

Settlement Agreement from persons

who are not named as parties or

interveners to this litigation. EPA or the
