ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[NM-21-1-6398b; FRL-5103-5]

 

Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
New Mexico; Revision to the State Implementation Plan Correcting Sulfur 
Dioxide Enforceability Deficiencies

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve a revision to the New Mexico State 
Implementation Plan (SIP) to include revisions to New Mexico Air 
Quality Control Regulations (AQCRs) 602, 651, and 652. These revisions 
correct enforceability deficiencies and strengthen the provisions of 
the regulations. This action also proposes to remove AQCR 605 from the 
New Mexico SIP because AQCR 605 has never applied to a facility within 
the State, and the State's operating permits and new source review 
programs would govern any such sources which would exist in the future. 
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 this proposed rule, no further 
activity is contemplated in relation to this rule. If the 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn, and all 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 action. Any parties interested in commenting on 
this action should do so at this time.
DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by 
December 19, 1994.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to Mr. 
Thomas H. Diggs, Chief, Planning Section, at the EPA Regional Office 
listed below. Copies of the documents relevant to this action are 
available for public inspection during normal business hours at the 
following locations. The interested persons wanting to examine these 
documents should make an appointment with the appropriate office at 
least twenty-four hours before the visiting day.
