the submitted Maricopa County (Phoenix, Arizona) serious area

adequate emissions budgets \1\ for transportation conformity purposes.
The last sentence of the notice, which refers to how the adequacy
decision was made, incorrectly stated ``We followed this guidance in
making our inadequacy determination on the Maricopa County PM-10
plan.'' This sentence should have stated, ``We followed this guidance
in making our adequacy determination on the Maricopa County PM-10
plan.''

    \1\ Note that the plan provides for a regional PM10 emission
budget which is applicable for both the annual and 24 hour PM-10
standards.
