40 CFR Parts 52 and 81
[WV27-1-7013b, WV27-2-7014b; FRL-5266-1]
Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
Designation of Areas for Air Quality Planning Purposes; Redesignation
of the Greenbrier County, West Virginia Ozone Nonattainment Area to
Attainment and Approval of the Area's Maintenance Plan and Emissions
Inventory
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revisions submitted by the State of West Virginia for the purpose of
establishing a 1990 base year ozone inventory and a maintenance plan
for the Greenbrier County ozone nonattainment area. EPA is also
proposing to approve the request submitted by the State of West
Virginia to redesignate the Greenbrier County area to attainment of the
National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for ozone. In the Final
Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the State's
SIP revision and redesignation request 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 Technical Support Document (TSD) that
has been prepared by EPA on these rulemaking actions. The TSD is
available for public inspection at the EPA Regional office listed in
the ADDRESSES section of this notice. 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public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 second comment period on
this action. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should
do so at this time.
DATES: Comments must be received in writing by September 5, 1995.
ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to
