Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans Alabama: 
Revisions to Several Chapters of the Alabama Department of 
Environmental Management (ADEM) Administrative Code for the Air 
Pollution Control Program

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve the State implementation plan 
(SIP) revision submitted by the State of Alabama through the Department 
of Environmental Management on August 28, 1997, the State of Alabama 
through the Department of Environmental Management (ADEM) submitted a 
SIP submittal to revise the ADEM Administrative Code for the Air 
Pollution Control Program. Revisions were made to Chapters 335-3-1, 
335-3-3 and 335-3-6. In the final rules section of this Federal 
Register, the EPA is approving the State of Alabama's SIP revision as a 
direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this 
as a noncontroversial revision amendment and anticipates 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 
that direct final rule, no further activity is contemplated in relation 
to this proposed rule. 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final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be 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. The 
EPA will not institute a second comment period on this document. Any 
parties interested in commenting on this document should do so at this 
time.

DATES: To be considered, comments must be received by February 6, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to 
Kimberly Bingham, at the EPA Regional Office listed below. Copies of 
the documents relative to this action are available for public 
inspection during normal business hours at the following locations. The
