{"abstract":"EPA is taking direct final action fully approving a partial operating permit program under title V of the Clean Air Act (the Act). This program will allow the Allegheny County Health Department (ACHD), located in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, to issue federally enforceable operating permits to all major stationary sources and certain other affected minor sources in its jurisdiction. The ACHD's operating permits program was submitted to EPA by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania on behalf of Allegheny County. By this same rulemaking, EPA is also withdrawing its previously published notice of proposed rulemaking dated December 6, 1999. Any parties interested in commenting on this rulemaking granting full approval to the ACHD's operating permits program should do so at this time.","action":"Direct final rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY","name":"Environmental Protection Agency","id":145,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/environmental-protection-agency","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/145","parent_id":null,"slug":"environmental-protection-agency"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2001/11/01/01-27281.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":70,"title":40}],"citation":"66 FR 55112","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2001-12-03","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"This rule is effective on December 17, 2001 without further notice, unless EPA receives adverse written comment by December 3, 2001.
