ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[WV31-1-7063b; FRL-5279-1]
Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
West Virginia: Requirements for Determining Conformity of General
Federal Actions to Applicable Air Quality Implementation Plans (General
Conformity)
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision submitted by the State of West Virginia for the purpose of
establishing the requirements for determining conformity of general
federal actions to applicable air quality implementation plans (General
Conformity). In the Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA
is approving the State's SIP revision 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 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 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all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 October 5, 1995.
ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Marcia L. Spink, Associate
Director, Air Programs, Mailcode 3AT00, U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, Region III, 841 Chestnut Building, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
19107. Copies of the documents relevant to this action are available
for public inspection during normal business hours at the EPA office
listed above; and West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection,
Office of Air Quality, 1558 Washington Street, East, Charleston, West
