ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52

[IL104-1-6697b; FRL-5158-8]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Illinois

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) 
proposes to approve Illinois' November 28, 1994, request to amend the 
marine vessel loading rules for the Chicago and Metro-East areas as 
part of the State's 15 percent (%) Rate of Progress Plan control 
measures for Volatile Organic Matter emissions. The control measures 
require marine terminals, from May 1 through September 15, to operate a 
vapor collection and control system which achieves a 95% control 
efficiency. In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the 
USEPA is approving this action as a direct final rule without prior 
proposal because USEPA views this as a noncontroversial action 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 USEPA 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all 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 the proposed rule. USEPA will not institute a second comment 
period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting on this 
notice should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received on or before May 
3, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be mailed to: J. Elmer Bortzer, 
Chief, Regulation Development Section, Regulation Development Branch 
(AR18-J), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, 77 West 
Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604.
    Copies of the State submittal and USEPA's analysis of it are 
available for inspection at: Regulation Development Section, Regulation 
Development Branch (AR18-J), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 
Region 5, 77 West Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rosanne Lindsay, Regulation 
Development Section, Regulation Development Branch (AR-18J), U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, 77 West Jackson Boulevard,

final rule published in the rules section of this Federal Register.
