ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[PA-4071b; FRL-6104-5]
Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
Pennsylvania; Approval of VOC RACT Determinations for Individual
Sources
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision submitted by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for the purpose
of establishing volatile organic compound (VOC) and nitrogen oxides
(NOX) reasonably available control technology (RACT) for
eight (8) major sources located in Pennsylvania. In the Final Rules
section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the Commonwealth's
SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the
Agency views this as a noncontroversial SIP revision and anticipates no
adverse comments. A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in
the direct final rule and the accompanying technical support document.
If no adverse comments are received in response to this proposed rule,
no further activity is contemplated in relation to this 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receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and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. EPA will not institute a

comments are received that do not pertain to all documents subject to

comments will be finalized in the manner described here. Only those
documents that receive adverse comments will be withdrawn in the manner
described here.
