ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[WA50-7123b; FRL-5692-9]
Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans:
Washington
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving in
part, and disapproving in part, and taking no action in part on the
Regulations of the Southwest Air Pollution Control Authority (SWAPCA)
for the control of air pollution in Clark, Cowlitz, Lewis, Skamania and
Wahkiakum Counties, Washington, as revisions to the Washington State
Implementation Plan (SIP). These revisions pertain to General
Regulations for Air Pollution Sources administered by SWAPCA. 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public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 action.
DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by
March 28, 1997.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Montel Livingston,
Environmental Protection Specialist (OAQ-107), Office of Air Quality,
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.
