ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52

[AK7-1-6588b; FRL-5171-6]


Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans; Alaska

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 Alaska for the purpose of 
reducing the National Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for carbon monoxide 
(CO). The SIP revision was submitted by the state to satisfy certain 
federal Clean Air Act requirements for a basic motor vehicle inspection 
and maintenance (I/M) program in the Municipality of Anchorage and the 
Fairbanks Northstar Borough area. 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will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in 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 notice.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by 
May 5, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Montel Livingston, 
Environmental Protection Specialist (AT-082), Air Programs Section, at 
the EPA Regional Office listed below. Copies of the documents relevant 
to this proposed rule 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 24 hours before the visiting day.
