    Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
    State of Iowa; Correction
    
    AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
    
    ACTION: Final rule; correcting amendment.
    
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    SUMMARY: This document corrects an error in the amendatory instruction 
    in a direct final rule pertaining to the Cedar Rapids, Iowa, attainment 
    and maintenance of the sulfur dioxide National Ambient Air Quality 
    Standard regulation.
    
    EFFECTIVE DATE: December 7, 1999.
    
    FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Edward West at (913) 551-7330.
    
    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA published a document on March 11, 1999 
    (64 FR 12087), inadvertently omitting a revision to the nonregulatory 
    tables in paragraph (e). This document adds that revision.
    
    Administrative Requirements
    
        Under Executive Order (E.O.) 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 (Public Law 104-4), or require prior consultation with state 
    officials as specified by E.O. 12875 (58 FR 58093, October 28, 1993), 
    or involve special consideration of environmental justice related 
    issues as required by E.O. 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 United States Senate, the United States 
    House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United 
    States prior to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. This 
    amendment to the rule for the Cedar Rapids, Iowa, attainment and 
    maintenance of the sulfur dioxide National Ambient Air Quality Standard 
    regulation is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
    
        Dated: November 9, 1999.

    Regional Administrator, Region VII.
