ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[TX-30-1-6527b; FRL-5069-7]
Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
Texas; Site Specific Particulate Control Plan for ASARCO, El Paso
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The EPA in this action proposes to approve a revision to the
Texas State Implementation Plan (SIP) addressing a request for a waiver
from certain industrial roadway paving for the ASARCO copper smelter in
El Paso, Texas. Specifically, in lieu of paving, this action proposes
to approve an alternate particulate control plan for certain industrial
unpaved roads at the El Paso ASARCO copper smelter. 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 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn, and all public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 action. Any parties interested in commenting on this action
should do so at this time.
DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by
October 17, 1994.
ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to Mr.
Thomas H. Diggs, Chief, Planning Section, at the EPA Regional Office
listed below. Copies of the documents relevant to this action 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
