ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52

[TN 132-6436b; FRL-5009-4]

 

Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans and Designation 
of Areas for Air Quality Planning Purposes; State of Tennessee

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve the State implementation plan 
(SIP) revision submitted by the State of Tennessee for the purpose of 
redesignation of the Memphis and Shelby County area (classified as a 
marginal nonattainment area) from nonattainment to attainment for ozone 
(O3). In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the 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 adverse comments. A detailed 
rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final rule. If no 
adverse comments are received in response to that direct final rule, no 
further activity is contemplated in relation to this proposed rule. 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EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn 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 proposed 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: To be considered, comments must be received by September 6, 
1994.

ADDRESSEES: Written comments should be sent to Karen Borel at the EPA 
address in Atlanta, Georgia listed below. Copies of the redesignation 
request and the State of Tennessee's submittal are available for public 
review during normal business hours at the addresses listed below.
