ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[DC040-2016b; FRL-6449-1]
Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
District of Columbia; GSA Central and West Heating Plants
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision submitted by the District of Columbia for the purpose of
limiting sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions at the General
Services Administration's Central and West Heating Plants. In the Final
Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the District's
SIP submittal as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the
Agency views this as a noncontroversial submittal 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 action, no further activity is contemplated. If EPA receives
adverse comments, the direct
[[Page 52738]]
final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be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 November 1, 1999.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Walter Wilkie,
Acting Chief, Technical Assessment Branch, Mailcode 3AP22, U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, Region III, 1650 Arch Street,
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103. Copies of the documents relevant to
this action are available for public inspection during normal business

Agency, Region III, 1650 Arch Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103;
