ADDRESSES:
Notice is hereby given that
the State of Illinois submitted a primacy
application for its approved Public
Water System Supervision Program.
Illinois is applying its Long Term 2
Enhanced Surface Water Treatment
Regulations to all Illinois water systems
that use surface water and ground water
under the influence of surface water as
a source, thereby satisfying the
requirements of the Long-Term 2
Enhanced Surface Water Treatment
Rule. Illinois is also applying its Stage
2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Regulations to all Illinois
community and noncommunity water
systems that add and/or deliver water
that is treated with a primary or residual
disinfectant other than ultraviolet light,
SUMMARY:
thereby satisfying the requirements of
the Stage 2 Disinfectants and
Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
EPA has determined that the state
regulations and procedures submitted
by the State to EPA for review are no
less stringent than the corresponding
federal regulations. Therefore, EPA
intends to award primacy to Illinois for
Long-Term 2 Enhanced Surface Water
Treatment and Stage 2 Disinfectants and
Disinfection By-product Rules
implementation. Any interested party
may request a public hearing. A request
for a public hearing must be submitted
by March 16, 2012, to the Regional
Administrator at the EPA Region 5
address shown below. The Regional
Administrator may deny frivolous or
insubstantial requests for a hearing.
However, if a substantial request for a
public hearing is made by March 16,
2012; EPA Region 5 will hold a public
hearing. If EPA Region 5 does not
receive a timely and appropriate request
for a hearing and the Regional
Administrator does not elect to hold a
hearing on her own motion, this
determination shall become final and
effective on March 16, 2012. Any
request for a public hearing shall
include the following information: The
name, address, and telephone number of
the individual, organization, or other
entity requesting a hearing; a brief
statement of the requesting person’s
interest in the Regional Administrator’s
determination and a brief statement of
the information that the requesting
person intends to submit at such
hearing; and the signature of the
individual making the request, or, if the
request is made on behalf of an
organization or other entity, the
signature of a responsible official of the
organization or other entity.

SUMMARY:
I. General Information
A. Does this notice apply to me?
This notice will be of interest to
entities regulated under 40 Code of
Federal Regulations(CFR) parts 59, 60,
61, and 63, state, local, and tribal
agencies, and the EPA Regional Offices
responsible for implementation and

Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 31 / Wednesday, February 15, 2012 / Notices
II. Background
Broadly applicable alternative test
method approval decisions made by the
EPA in 2011 under the National Volatile
Organic Compound Emission Standards
for Consumer and Commercial Products,
40 CFR part 59, NSPS, 40 CFR part 60,
and NESHAP, 40 CFR parts 61 and 63
are identified in this notice (see Table
1). Source owners and operators may
voluntarily use these broadly applicable
alternative test methods subject to their
specific applicability. Use of these
broadly applicable alternative test
methods does not change the applicable
emission standards.
As explained in a previous Federal
Register notice published at 72 FR 4257
(January 30, 2007) and found on the
EPA’s Web site at www.epa.gov/ttn/
emc/approalt.html, the EPA
Administrator has the authority to
approve the use of alternative test
methods to comply with requirements
under 40 CFR parts 60, 61, and 63. This
authority is found in sections 60.8(b)(3),
61.13(h)(1)(ii), and 63.7(e)(2)(ii). In the
past, we have performed thorough
technical reviews of numerous requests
for alternatives and modifications to test
methods and procedures. Based on
these reviews, we have often found that
these changes or alternatives would be
equally valid and appropriate to apply
to other sources within a particular
class, category, or subcategory.
Consequently, we have concluded that,
where a method modification or an
alternative method is clearly broadly
applicable to a class, category, or
subcategory of sources, it is both more
equitable and efficient to approve its use
for all appropriate sources and
situations at the same time.
It is important to clarify that
alternative methods are not mandatory
but permissive. Sources are not required
to employ such a method but may
choose to do so in appropriate cases.
Source owners or operators should
review the specific broadly applicable
alternative method approval decision on
the EPA’s Web site at https://
www.epa.gov/ttn/emc/approalt.html
before electing to employ it. As per
63.7(f)(5), by electing to use an
alternative method for 40 CFR part 63
standards, the source owner or operator
must continue to use the alternative
method until approved otherwise.
The criteria for approval and
procedures for submission and review
of broadly applicable alternative test
methods are outlined at 72 FR 4257
(January 30, 2007). We will continue to
announce approvals for broadly
applicable alternative test methods on
the EPA’s Web site at www.epa.gov/ttn/
emc/approalt.html and annually
publish a notice that summarizes
approvals for broadly applicable
alternative test methods.
This notice comprises a summary of
ten such approval documents added to
our Technology Transfer Network from
January 1, 2011, through December 31,
2011. The alternative method decision
letter/memo number, the reference
method affected, sources allowed to use
this alternative, and the modification or
alternative method allowed are
summarized in Table 1 of this notice.
Please refer to the complete copies of
these approval documents available
from the EPA’s Web site at
www.epa.gov/ttn/emc/approalt.html as
the table serves only as a brief summary
of the broadly applicable alternative test
methods. If you are aware of reasons
why a particular alternative test method
approval that we issued should not be
broadly applicable, we request that you
make us aware of the reasons in writing,
and we will revisit the broad approval.
Any objection to a broadly applicable
alternative test method, as well as the
resolution of that objection, will be
announced on the EPA’s Web site at
www.epa.gov/ttn/emc/approalt.html
and in the subsequent Federal Register
notice. If we decide to retract a broadly
applicable test method, we would
continue to grant case-by-case
approvals, as appropriate, and would (as
states, local and tribal agencies and the
EPA Regional Offices should) consider
the need for an appropriate transition
period for users either to request caseby-case approval or to transition to an
approved method.
