40 CFR Part 52

[NC98-200237b; FRL-7377-7]

 
Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; North 
Carolina: Approval of Miscellaneous Revisions to The Mecklenburg County 
Local Implementation Plan

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The EPA is proposing to approve the Local Implementation Plan 
(LIP) revision submitted by the Mecklenburg County Department of 
Environmental Protection, through the State of North Carolina, for the 
purpose of approving regulations pertaining to volatile organic 
compound emissions and other miscellaneous sections of the Mecklenburg 
County Air Pollution Control Ordinance. In the Final Rules section of 
this Federal Register, the EPA is approving the Mecklenburg county LIP 
revisions 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 significant, material, and adverse 
comments are received in response to this rule, 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will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in 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 rule.
    The EPA will not institute a second comment period on this 
document. Any parties interested in commenting on this document should 
do so at this time.

DATES: Written comments must be received on or before November 21, 
2002.

ADDRESSES: All comments should be addressed to: Randy Terry at the EPA, 
Region 4 Air Planning Branch, 61 Forsyth Street, SW, Atlanta, Georgia 
30303-8960.
