Download as PDF 51978 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 163 / Wednesday, August 24, 2022 / Notices Revised Total Coliform Rule. For the requests to be approved, the EPA must find the state regulations codified at Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. r. 391–3–5 to be no less stringent than the Federal rules codified at 40 CFR part 141. The EPA reviewed Georgia’s applications using the Federal statutory provisions (section 1413 of the Safe Drinking Water Act), federal regulations (at 40 CFR parts 141 and 142), state regulations, state policies and procedures for implementing the rules, regulatory crosswalks, and the EPA regulatory guidance to determine whether the requests for revision are approvable. The EPA determined that the Georgia regulations are no less stringent than the corresponding Federal rules and the revisions otherwise meet applicable Safe Drinking Water Act requirements. Therefore, the EPA intends to approve these revisions. If the EPA does not receive a timely and appropriate request for a hearing and the Regional Administrator does not elect to hold a hearing on his own motion, this approval shall become final on September 23, 2022. Authority: Section 1413 of the Safe Drinking Water Act, as amended (1996), and 40 CFR part 142. Dated: August 18, 2022. Daniel Blackman, Regional Administrator.

Abstract: GreenChill is a voluntary partnership program sponsored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that encourages food retailers and manufacturers to adopt cost effective technologies and practices that reduce refrigerant emissions and improve operational efficiency. The GreenChill Program works with the food retail industry to lower barriers inhibiting the implementation of technologies and practices that reduce refrigerant emissions. The Program effectively promotes the adoption of emission reduction practices and technologies by engaging GreenChill Partners to set an annual refrigerant emission reduction goal and develop a refrigerant management plan reflecting the company’s implementation objectives. Implementation of the Partners’ refrigeration management plan to reduce refrigerant emissions enhances the protection of the environment and may save Partners money and improve operational efficiency. The GreenChill Program offers the opportunity for any individual store to earn GreenChill Certification at the silver-, gold-, platinum-, or other level when it demonstrates that the amount of refrigerant used is below a specified limit, based on the store’s million British Thermal Units per hour (MBTU/ hr) cooling load, and that the refrigerant emitted from the store in the prior 12 months is below a specified percentage depending on each GreenChill Store Certification level. Information submitted for the certification of individual stores is compared to these set criteria for each certification level. The certification of a store provides the opportunity for broad recognition within the food retail industry and with the store’s customers.
