Although we are exempt from the

incorporated by reference in the Code of
Federal Regulations. See 39 CFR part

a. The term animal means any live
bird, or any live mammal (e.g., dog),
except human.
b. The term animal fighting venture
means any event, in or affecting
interstate or foreign commerce, that
involves a fight conducted or to be
conducted between at least two animals
for purposes of sport, wagering, or
entertainment (excluding any activity
whose primary purpose involves using
one or more animals in hunting other
animals;
c. The term state means any state of
the United States, the District of
Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto

An animal is nonmailable if such

standard applies regardless of whether
such venture is permitted under the
laws of the state in which it is

Approval and Promulgation of State
Air Quality Plans for Designated
Facilities and Pollutants; West
Virginia; Control of Emissions From
Existing Commercial and Industrial
Incineration (CISWI) Units, Plan
Revision
AGENCY: Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve a
revision to the West Virginia (WV)
commercial and industrial solid waste
incinerator (CISWI) 111(d)/129 plan (the
‘‘plan’’). The revision contains a
modified WV Department of
Environmental Protection, Division of
Air Quality (DAQ) rule, WV45CSR18,
that streamlines the state’s regulatory
structure for incinerator units into one
rule which incorporates Clean Air Act
(CAA), section 129 requirements. This
approval action relates only to CISWI
units. In the Final Rules section of this
Federal Register, EPA is approving the
State of West Virginia’s CISWI plan
revision submittal as a direct final rule
without prior proposal because the
Agency views this as a noncontroversial
action and anticipate no adverse
comments. A detailed rationale for the
approval is set forth in the direct final
rule. 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final rule will be withdrawn and all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.
