Title: ●National Perchloroethylene Air Emission Standards for Dry Cleaning Facilities: Corrections 
Abstract: We are taking direct final action on amendments to the national perchloroethylene air emission standards for dry cleaning facilities promulgated on July 27, 2006 (FR 71 42724), under the authority of section 112(d) of the Clean Air Act (CAA). These amendments will add rule text to clarify that requirements for monitoring dry cleaning drums using a colorimetric detector was intended only for major sources (not for area sources) and that, when monitoring for condenser operation, either pressure or temperature monitoring methods are equally acceptable. Without these corrections, the rule erroneously "implies" that: 1) Area sources are required to perform colorimetric monitoring, and; 2) that dry cleaning machines with installed pressure gauges must use "only" the pressure method for monitoring the condenser operation, when the temperature test is equally acceptable.
