ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52

[TX-47-1-6705b; FRL-5161-6]


Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Texas; Revision to the State Implementation Plan Addressing Sulfur 
Dioxide in Harris County

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA in this action proposes to approve a revision to the 
Texas State Implementation Plan (SIP) to include Agreed Orders limiting 
sulfur dioxide (SO2) allowable emissions at certain nonpermitted 
facilities in Harris County, Texas. 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will be withdrawn, and all public comments received will be addressed 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 
April 5, 1995.

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
