ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[WI61-01-7144b; FRL-5426-3]
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plan; Wisconsin;
Lithographic Printing SIP Revision
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve a revision to the Wisconsin State
Implementation Plan (SIP) for ozone that was submitted on May 12, 1995,
and supplemented on June 14, 1995 and November 14, 1995. This revision
consists of a volatile organic compound (VOC) regulation which
establishes reasonably available control technology (RACT) for
lithographic printing facilities. This regulation was submitted to
address, in part, the requirement of section 182(b)(2)(C) of the Clean
Air Act (CAA or Act) that States revise their SIPs to establish RACT
regulations for major sources of VOCs for which the USEPA has not
issued a control technology guidelines (CTG) document. In addition,
emission reductions resulting from this rule are being used by the
State to fulfill, in part, the requirement of section 182(b)(1) of the
Act that States submit a plan that provides for a 15 percent reduction
in VOC emissions by 1996.
In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the EPA is
approving this action as a direct final without prior proposal because
EPA views this as a noncontroversial action and anticipates no adverse
comments. 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rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be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. The
EPA will not institute a second comment period on this action. Any
parties interested in commenting on this document should do so at this
time.
DATES: Comments on this proposed action must be received by May 9,
1996.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be sent to: Carlton T. Nash, Chief,
Regulation Development Section, Air Programs Branch (AR-18J), EPA,
Region 5, 77 West Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604-3590.

Final rule which is located in the Rules section of this Federal
Register. Copies of the request and the EPA's analysis are available
