Summary

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a request submitted by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (Ohio EPA) on January 24, 2018, to revise the Ohio State Implementation Plan (SIP) under the Clean Air Act (CAA). Ohio EPA is requesting to remove provisions under Ohio Administrative Code (OAC) Chapter 3745-75, that were approved into the Ohio SIP as part of Ohio's Hospital/ Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerator (HMIWI) state plan under sections 110(d) and 129 of the Clean Air Act. In a separate action, EPA has approved Ohio EPA's request for withdrawal of its HMIWI state plan that allows the state rules to be superseded by the Federal Plan under 40 CFR part 62, subpart HHH.
