CFR Citation: 40 CFR Part 52

WV ID: [WV055-6025b; FRL-7449-5]

NOTICE: PROPOSED RULES

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

DOCUMENT ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUBJECT CATEGORY: Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; West Virginia; Permits for Construction, Modification, Relocation and Operation of Stationary Sources of Air Pollutants, Notification Requirements, Administrative Updates, Temporary Permits

DATES: Comments must be received in writing by March 31, 2003.

DOCUMENT SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the State of West Virginia for the purpose of converting the partial approval and partial disapproval of West Virginia's minor new source review and existing stationary source operating permit program to the full approval. EPA also proposes to approve additional rule revisions, made to the minor new source review regulation. In the Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the State'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 If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule.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. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time.

SUMMARY: West Virginia,
