ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[TN-160-9624b; FRL-5831-6]
Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans,
Tennessee; Approval of Revisions To Permit Requirements, Definitions,
Exemptions, and Internal Combustion Engines Regulations
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve the revisions to the Nashville/
Davidson County portion of the Tennessee State Implementation Plan
(SIP) submitted by the State of Tennessee for the purpose of revising
the current regulations for the permit requirements for major sources
of air pollution, including revisions to the general definitions,
permit requirements, and the exemptions. Also included was a revision
to the regulations for internal combustion engines. 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 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public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 document. Any parties interested in commenting on this document
should do so at this time.
DATES: To be considered, comments must be received by June 30, 1997.
ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to Karen
Borel, at the Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4 Air Planning
Branch, 61 Forsyth Street, SW, Atlanta, GA, 30303. Copies of the
