ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 62
[SIPTRAX NO. VA 011-5034a; FRL-6174-7]
Approval and Promulgation of State Air Quality Plans for
Designated Facilities and Pollutants; Commonwealth of Virginia; Control
of Total Reduced Sulfur Emissions from Existing Kraft Pulp Mills
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Direct final rule; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document corrects an error in the rule language of a
final rulemaking action pertaining to EPA's approval of the section
111(d) plan for control of total reduced sulfur (TRS) emissions from
kraft pulp mills submitted by the Commonwealth of Virginia.
EFFECTIVE DATE: November 8, 1998.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Artra B. Cooper at (215) 814-2096, or
by e-mail at cooper.artra@epamail.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA published a document on September 8,
1998 (63 FR 47436) inadvertently adding paragraph (d) under the new
Sec. 62.11610. The intent of the document was to add paragraphs (a)
through (c) under the new Sec. 62.11610. This document corrects the
erroneous amendatory language.
In the final rule (FR Docket 98-23888) published in the Federal
Register on September 8, 1998 (63 FR 47436), on page 47438 in the first
column, remove paragraph (d) from Sec. 62.11610.
Administrative Requirements
Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this
action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' and, is therefore not
subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget. In addition,
this action does not impose any enforceable duty or contain any
unfunded mandate as described in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of
1995 (Pub. L. 104-4), or require prior consultation with State
officials as specified by Executive Order 12875 (58 FR 58093, October
28, 1993), or involve special consideration of environmental justice
related issues as required by Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629,
February 16, 1994).
Because this corrective rulemaking action is not subject to notice-
and-comment requirements under the Administrative Procedure Act or any
other statute, it is not subject to the provisions of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.).
The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other
required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. This correction
rule pertaining to Virginia's section 111(d) plan for control of TRS
emissions from kraft pulp mills is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5
U.S.C. 804(2).
Dated: October 1, 1998.

Acting Regional Administrator, EPA Region III.
