ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52

[WA-10-1-5830b; WA-21-1-6278b; FRL-5017-4]

 

Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans: 
Washington

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan 
(SIP) revisions submitted by the Washington State Department of Ecology 
(WDOE) for the purpose of including numerous amendments to regulations 
of the Puget Sound Area Pollution Control Agency's (PSAPCA) rules into 
the Washington SIP. In accordance with Washington statutes, PSAPCA 
rules must be at least as stringent as the WDOE statewide rules. In the 
final rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the 
State's SIP revisions 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 rule. If the 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public 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 notice.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by 
September 28, 1994.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Montel Livingston, 
Environmental Protection Specialist (AT-082), Air Programs Section, at 
the EPA Regional Office listed. Copies of the documents relevant to 
this proposed rule are available for public inspection during normal 
business hours at the following locations. The interested persons 
wanting to examine these documents should make an appointment with the 
appropriate office at least 24 hours before the visiting day.

6th Avenue, Seattle, WA 98101.
