AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision submitted by the State of Maine on July 24, 1995. This
revision includes requirements for controlling volatile organic
compound (VOC) emissions from bulk gasoline terminals and gasoline
dispensing facilities. In the Final Rules Section of this Federal
Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP revision as a direct final
rule without prior proposal and does not anticipate any 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final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be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. EPA
will not institute a second comment period on this proposal. Any
parties interested in commenting on this proposal should do so at this
time.
DATES: Comments must be received on or before November 14, 1996.
ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Susan Studlien, Deputy Director,
Office of Ecosystem Protection, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,
Region I, JFK Federal Bldg., Boston, MA 02203. Copies of the State
submittal and EPA's technical support document are available for public
inspection during normal business hours, by appointment at the Office
of Ecosystem Protection, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region
I, One Congress Street, 11th floor, Boston, MA and the Bureau of Air
