ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[IL63-1-5716b; FRL-5071-1]
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plan; Illinois
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) is
proposing to approve Illinois' 1990 base year ozone precursor emissions
inventory for certain ozone nonattainment areas as revisions to the
Illinois ozone State Implementation Plan (SIP). The emissions
inventories were submitted by the State of Illinois to satisfy a
Federal requirement that States containing ozone nonattainment areas
submit inventories of actual ozone precursor emissions. The Illinois
ozone nonattainment areas covered by the ozone emissions inventories
addressed in this rulemaking are: Chicago, Metro-East St. Louis, and
Jersey County. In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the
USEPA is approving the State's SIP revision request without prior
proposal because USEPA views this as a noncontroversial revision 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 that direct final rule, no further activity is
contemplated in relation to this proposed rule. If USEPA receives
adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and the
public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule
based on this proposed rule. A second comment period on this action
will not be held. Parties interested in commenting on this notice
should do so at this time.
DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received on or before
October 13, 1994.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be mailed to: J. Elmer Bortzer,
Chief, Regulation Development Section, Regulation Development Branch
(AR18-J), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, 77 West
Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604.
Copies of the State submittal and USEPA's analysis of it are
available forinspection at: Regulation Development Section, Regulation
Development Branch (AR18-J), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,
Region 5, 77 West Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604.
