ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[IL104-1-6697b; FRL-5158-8]
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Illinois
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA)
proposes to approve Illinois' November 28, 1994, request to amend the
marine vessel loading rules for the Chicago and Metro-East areas as
part of the State's 15 percent (%) Rate of Progress Plan control
measures for Volatile Organic Matter emissions. The control measures
require marine terminals, from May 1 through September 15, to operate a
vapor collection and control system which achieves a 95% control
efficiency. In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the
USEPA is approving this action as a direct final rule without prior
proposal because USEPA views this as a noncontroversial action 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 that direct final rule, no further activity is
contemplated in relation to this proposed rule. If USEPA 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all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 the proposed rule. USEPA will not institute a second comment
period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting on this
notice should do so at this time.
DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received on or before May
3, 1995.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be mailed to: J. Elmer Bortzer,
Chief, Regulation Development Section, Regulation Development Branch
(AR18-J), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, 77 West
Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604.
Copies of the State submittal and USEPA's analysis of it are
available for inspection at: Regulation Development Section, Regulation
Development Branch (AR18-J), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,
Region 5, 77 West Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604.

Development Section, Regulation Development Branch (AR-18J), U.S.
