ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52

[MD31-1-6371b; FRL-5060-1]

 

Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Maryland (Permits and Approvals)

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP) 
revision submitted by the State of Maryland. This revision requires the 
State to offer the public an opportunity to request a public hearing 
before issuing a permit to construct certain sources. In the Final 
Rules section of this 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 SIP revision and anticipates no 
adverse comments. A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in 
the direct final rule and the accompanying technical support document. 
If no adverse comments are received in response to this proposed rule, 
no further activity is contemplated in relation to this 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receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and 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. 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 must be received in writing by October 7, 1994.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to 
Thomas J. Maslany, Director, Air, Radiation, and Toxics Division 
(3AT00), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region III, 841 Chestnut 
Building, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19107. Copies of the documents 
relevant to this action are available for public inspection during 
normal business hours at the Air, Radiation, and Toxics Division, U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency, Region III, 841 Chestnut Building, 
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19107; and the Maryland Department of the
