ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[WA5-1-5539b, WA27-1-6612b; FRL-5078-8]
Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans:
Washington
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 Washington for the purpose of
bringing about the attainment of the national ambient air quality
standards (NAAQS) for particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter
less than or equal to a nominal 10 micrometers (PM-10). The
implementation plan was submitted by the State to satisfy certain
Federal requirements of an approvable moderate nonattainment area PM-10
SIP for Tacoma, Washington.
In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the EPA is
approving the State'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 this proposed rule, no further
activity is contemplated in relation to this rule. If the 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all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.
DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by
November 14, 1994.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Montel Livingston,
Environmental Protection Specialist (AT-082), Air Programs Section, at
the EPA Regional Office listed below. Copies of the documents relevant
to this proposed rule are available for public inspection during normal
business hours at the following locations. The interested persons
wanting to examine these documents should make an appointment with the
appropriate office at least 24 hours before the visiting day.
