摘要

The Administrator has determined that it is necessary to extend the submission deadline for section 111(d) Plans for MSW landfills for the States of Alaska, Idaho, Illinois, Kentucky, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Washington as described below. The reasons for this action are set forth in the memorandum, Reasons for Extending Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Section 111(d) Plan Submittal, which is located in the docket and on EPA's website. These Plans, which are required under section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act for existing landfills (40 CFR part 60, subpart B), describe how the State or Local air pollution agency or Indian Tribe will implement the MSW landfill emission guidelines. The guidelines were promulgated on March 12, 1996 under 40 CFR part 60, subpart Cc (61 FR 9905). The section 111(d) Plans were due December 12, 1996.
