EPA is proposing to notify the public that it has received a negative declaration for the City of Philadelphia Air Management Services (Philadelphia AMS) for hospital/medical/infectious waste incinerator (HMIWI) units. This negative declaration certifies that HMIWI units subject to the requirements of sections 111(d) and 129 of the Clean Air Act (CAA) do not exist within the City of Philadelphia in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. EPA is accepting the negative declaration in accordance with the requirements of the CAA. In the Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is accepting the negative declaration as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial submittal and anticipates no adverse comments. If no adverse comments are received in response to this action, no further activity is contemplated. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. EPA will not institute a second comment period. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to notify the public that it has received a 
negative declaration for the City of Philadelphia Air Management 
Services (Philadelphia AMS) for hospital/medical/infectious waste 
incinerator (HMIWI) units. This negative declaration certifies that 
HMIWI units subject to the requirements of sections 111(d) and 129 of 
the Clean Air Act (CAA) do not exist within the City of Philadelphia in 
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. EPA is accepting the negative 
declaration in accordance with the requirements of the CAA. In the 
Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is accepting the 
negative declaration as a direct final rule without prior proposal 
because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial submittal and 
anticipates no adverse comments. If no adverse comments are received in 
response to this action, no further activity is contemplated. If EPA 
receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and 
all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final 
rule based on this proposed rule. EPA will not institute a second 
comment period. Any parties interested in commenting on this action 
should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments must be received in writing by November 13, 2017.
