Abstract
EPA is taking direct final action to approve a revision to the West Virginia hospital/medical/infectious waste incinerator (HMIWI) Section 111(d)/129 plan (the "plan"). The revision contains a modified state rule for solid waste combustion that was updated as a result of the October 6, 2009 amendments to Federal Emission Guidelines (EG) and New Source Performance Standards (NSPS), 40 CFR part 60, subparts Ce and Ec respectively. While West Virginia's revised regulation contains requirements for various types of solid waste incineration units, the revisions and approval action relate only to HMIWI units.
