SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Correction

    EPA is correcting the error in the Federal Register notice,
published on April 9, 2007 (72 FR 17550), which announced the adequacy
finding for the 2006 MVEBs. In that notice on page 17550, in the third
column, the table labeled ``Atlanta 8-Hour Ozone MVEBs,'' EPA
inadvertently identified the NOX MVEB as 172.27 tpd and the
VOC MVEB as 306.75 tpd. This action corrects that error. As announced
in EPA's January 24, 2007, letter from Beverly Banister, Director of
the Air, Pesticides and Toxics Management Division, to Heather Abrams,
Chief of EPD's Air Protection Branch, the correct 2006 MVEBs for the
Atlanta 8-Hour Ozone Area, as established by the Early Progress Plan,
are provided in the following table.
