DATES: Comments on draft NOX compliance plans must be received no 
later than 30 days after the date of this notice or the publication 
date of a similar notice in local newspapers.

ADDRESSES: Administrative Records. The administrative record for draft 
NOX compliance plans, except information protected as 
confidential, may be viewed during normal operating hours at EPA Region 
7, 726 Minnesota Ave., Kansas City, KS 66101.
    Comments. Send comments, requests for public hearings, and requests 
to receive notice of future actions concerning a draft NOX 
compliance plan to EPA Region 7, Air and Toxics Division, Attn: Jon

NOX compliance plan and other comments not relevant to the 
NOX compliance plan.
    Hearings. To request a public hearing, state the issues proposed to
