NOTICE: PROPOSED RULES

ACTION: Air quality implementation plans; approval and promulgation; various States:

DOCUMENT ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUBJECT CATEGORY:

Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of Missouri

DATES: Comments on this proposed action must be received in writing by September 26, 2002.

DOCUMENT SUMMARY:

EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the state of Missouri. This revision pertains to a change in the state's construction permits rule. Approval of this revision will ensure consistency between the state and Federally approved rules, and ensure Federal enforceability of the state's air program rule revision.

In the final rules section of the 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 revision amendment and anticipates no relevant adverse comments to this action. A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final rule. If no relevant adverse comments are received in response to this action, no further activity is contemplated in relation to this action. If EPA receives relevant adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed action. 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. Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on part of this rule and if that part can be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may adopt as final those parts of the rule that are not the subject of an adverse comment.

SUMMARY:

Missouri,
