Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans Tennessee:
Approval of Revisions to the Tennessee SIP Regarding Construction
Permits and Volatile Organic Compounds
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve the State implementation plan
(SIP) revisions submitted by the State of Tennessee for the purposes of
incorporating visibility protection requirements into the Construction
Permits portion of the rule (1200-3-9-.01) and to respond to
deficiencies of chapter 1200-3-18 as described in 60 FR 10504 published
on February 27, 1995, which acted on the Tennessee VOC Reasonably
Available Control Technology (RACT) submittal to meet the 1990 VOC RACT
``Catch Up'' requirements. The EPA is also approving two new rules into
Tennessee's VOC chapter which regulate VOC emissions from offset
lithographic printing operations and wood furniture finishing and
cleaning operations. 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rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be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 August 19, 1996.
