ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52
[MO 152-1152; FRL-7163-1]
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of
Missouri
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP)
revision submitted by the state of Missouri which provides for the
attainment and maintenance of the sulfur dioxide (SO2)
National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) in Springfield (Greene
County), Missouri. This revision approves a Consent Agreement which
requires SO2 emission reductions from a major air emissions
source in Springfield. Approval of this SIP revision will make the
Consent Agreement Federally enforceable. 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all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.
DATES: Comments on this proposed action must be received in writing by
April 24, 2002.
ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Wayne Kaiser, Environmental
Protection Agency, Air Planning and Development Branch, 901 North 5th
Street, Kansas City, Kansas 66101.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Wayne Kaiser at (913) 551-7603.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: See the information provided in the direct
final rule which is located in the rules section of the Federal
Register.
Dated: March 14, 2002.
James B. Gulliford,
Regional Administrator, Region 7.
