National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for
Secondary Aluminum Production

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to
amend the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for
Secondary Aluminum Production (Secondary Aluminum NESHAP). In the
``Rules and Regulations'' section of this Federal Register, we are
publishing a direct final rule, without a prior proposed rule, that
amends the final rule that was published in the Federal Register on
September 18, 2015, to correct inadvertent errors, to clarify rule
requirements for initial performance tests and submittal of malfunction
reports, to provide an additional option for new round top furnaces to
account for unmeasured emissions during compliance testing and to
clarify what constitutes a change in furnace operating mode. The direct
final rule also updates Web site addresses for the EPA's Electronic
Reporting Tool (ERT) and the Compliance and Emissions Data Reporting
Interface (CEDRI). If we receive no adverse comment, we will not take
further action on this proposed rule.

DATES: Written comments must be received by July 28, 2016.
    Public Hearing. If anyone contacts the EPA requesting to speak at a
public hearing by June 20, 2016, we will hold a public hearing on June
28, 2016 on the EPA campus at 109 T.W. Alexander Drive, Research
Triangle Park, North Carolina.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-
OAR-2010-0544, at http://www.regulations.gov.
    Follow the online instructions for submitting comments. Once
submitted, comments cannot be edited or removed from Regulations.gov.
The EPA may publish any comment received to its public docket. Do not
submit electronically any information you consider to be Confidential
Business Information (CBI) or other information whose disclosure is
restricted by statute.
    Multimedia submissions (audio, video, etc.) must be accompanied by
a written comment. The written comment is considered the official
comment and should include discussion of all points you wish to make.
The EPA will generally not consider comments or comment contents
located outside of the primary submission (i.e., on the Web, cloud, or
other file sharing system). For additional submission methods, the full
EPA public comment policy, information about CBI or multimedia
submissions, and general guidance on making effective comments, please

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Why is the EPA publishing this proposed rule?

    The EPA is proposing to amend the Secondary Aluminum NESHAP. In
addition, the EPA has published a direct final rule amending the
Secondary Aluminum NESHAP in the ``Rules and Regulations'' section of
this Federal Register because we view this as a noncontroversial action
and anticipate no adverse comment. The direct final rule will correct
inadvertent errors, clarify rule requirements for initial performance
tests and submittal of malfunction reports, extend to new round top
furnaces a compliance testing option to account for unmeasured
emissions during compliance testing that is already available to
uncontrolled group 1 furnaces and clarify what constitutes a change in
furnace operating mode. The direct final rule also updates Web site
addresses for the EPA's ERT and CEDRI. 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 all or a
distinct portion of this direct final rule, we will publish a timely
withdrawal in the Federal Register informing the public that some or
all of the direct final rule will not take effect. We would address all
public comments in any subsequent final rule based on the 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 revisions, see
the direct final rule published in the ``Rules and Regulations''
section of this Federal Register.

II. Discussion of Direct Final Rulemaking

    EPA is proposing to stay the provisions of 40 CFR 450.22(a) and (b)
that contain the numeric limitation and associated monitoring
requirements for the Construction and Development Point Source
category. This stay is necessary to reconsider the record underlying
the calculation of the 280 NTU numeric limitation. After the numeric
limitation was promulgated, and based on EPA's examination of the
dataset underlying the 280 NTU limit, EPA concluded that it improperly
interpreted the data and, as a result, the calculations in the existing
administrative record are no longer adequate to support the 280 NTU
effluent limitation. EPA intends to expeditiously conduct a separate
rulemaking to correct the numeric effluent limitation. Until the new
rulemaking is effective, it is proposed that the stay will remain in
place. EPA expects to complete a notice and comment rulemaking to
correct the data error by May 30, 2011 so that the revised numeric
limitation will be effective by June 29, 2011. An effective date of
June 29, 2011 for the corrected numeric limit will enable EPA to
incorporate the revised numeric limit and associated monitoring
requirements in EPA's Construction General Permit. In the ``Rules and
Regulations'' section of today's Federal Register, we are issuing this
stay as a direct final rule without prior proposal because we view this
stay as noncontroversial and anticipate no adverse comment. We have
described the justification for the stay in the direct final rule. If
EPA receives no adverse comment on either of these two actions, the
Agency will not take further action on this proposed rule. If EPA
receives adverse comment on either of these two actions, the Agency
will publish a timely withdrawal of the direct final rule in the
Federal Register. We would then address all public comments in a
subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. We will not
institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties
interested in commenting must do so at this time.
    For the various statutes and Executive Orders that require findings
for each rulemaking, EPA incorporates the findings from the direct
final rulemaking into this companion notice for the purpose of
providing public notice and opportunity for comment.

[USCG-2013-0031]

Drawbridge Operating Regulations; Gulf Intracoastal Waterway,
Belle Chasse, LA

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of deviation from drawbridge regulation.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard has issued a temporary deviation from the
operating schedule that governs the Louisiana State Route 23 (LA 23)
vertical lift span bridge, also known as the Judge Perez Bridge, across
the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (Algiers Alternate Route), mile 3.8, at
Belle Chasse, Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana. This deviation is
necessary to repair bridge machinery and to replace the wire ropes of
the bridge. This deviation allows the bridge to remain closed to
navigation for eight consecutive days in order to perform scheduled
maintenance.

DATES: This deviation is effective from 6 a.m. on Sunday, February 24,
2013, until 6 a.m. on Monday, March 4, 2013.

ADDRESSES: The docket for this notice, docket number USCG-2013-0031, is

the docket number in the ``SEARCH'' box and click ``SEARCH.'' Click on
Open Docket Folder on the line associated with this notice of
deviation. You may also visit the Docket Management Facility in Room
W12-140 on the ground floor of

the Department of Transportation West Building, 1200 New Jersey Avenue
SE., Washington, DC 20590, between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through
Friday, except Federal holidays.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions on this
temporary deviation, call or email David Frank, Bridge Administration
Branch, Coast Guard, telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>, email
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>If you have questions on viewing the docket,
call Docket Operations, telephone<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: C.E.C., Inc, on behalf of the Louisiana
Department of Transportation and Development (LDOTD) has requested a
temporary deviation in order to perform maintenance on the State Route
23 (LA 23) vertical lift span bridge, also known as the Judge Perez
Bridge, across the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (Algiers Alternate
Route), mile 3.8, at Belle Chasse, Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana. This
maintenance is necessary to make mechanical repairs to the bridge and
to replace the wire ropes on the bridge. This temporary deviation will
allow the bridge to remain closed to navigation position continuously
from 6 a.m. on Sunday, February 24, 2013, until 6 a.m. on Monday, March
4, 2013. During the closure the draw will not be able to open for
emergencies. Currently, as specified in 33 CFR 117.451(b), the draw
opens on signal; except that, from 6 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. and from 3:30
p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays, the
draw need not be opened for the passage of vessels.
    The State Route 23 vertical lift span drawbridge across the Gulf
Intracoastal Waterway (Algiers Alternate Route), mile 3.8, at Belle
Chasse, Louisiana has a vertical clearance of 40 feet above mean high
water in the closed-to-navigation position and 100 feet above mean high
water in the open-to-navigation position. Navigation on the waterway
consists primarily of tugs with tows, commercial fishing vessels, and
occasional recreational craft. Mariners may use the Gulf Intracoastal
Waterway (Harvey Canal) to avoid unnecessary delays. The Coast Guard
has coordinated this closure with the Gulf Intracoastal Canal
Association (GICA). The GICA representative indicated that the vessel
operators will be able to schedule transits through the bridge such
that operations will not significantly be hindered. Thus, it has been
determined that this closure will not have a significant effect on
these vessels. This closure is considered necessary for repair of the
bridge.
    In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), the drawbridge must return to
its regular operating schedule immediately at the end of the effective
period of this temporary deviation. This deviation from the operating
regulations is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.

    Dated: January 22, 2013.
