ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[IL107-1-6708b; FRL-5190-5]


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's September 26, 1994, State Implementation 
Plan (SIP) revision request to grant a variance from Stage II vapor 
control requirements to J.M. Sweeney Co. (Sweeney), located in Cicero, 
Cook County, Illinois. This variance has been granted because Sweeney 
has demonstrated that immediate compliance with the requirements at 
issue would impose an arbitrary and unreasonable hardship. This 
variance expires on March 31, 1995. 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 
USEPA receives comments adverse to or critical of the approval 
discussed above, USEPA will withdraw the approval before its effective 
date by publishing a subsequent rule that withdraws this final action. 
All public comments received will then be addressed in a subsequent 
rulemaking notice. Please be aware that USEPA will institute another 
rulemaking notice on this action only if warranted by significant 
revision to the rulemaking based on any comments receives in response 
to today's action. Any parties interested in commenting on this action 
should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received on or before 
June 2, 1995. If no such comments are received, USEPA hereby advises 
that the direct final approval will be effective July 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: Mark J. Palermo, Regulation 
Development Section, Regulation Development Branch (AR18-J), U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, 77 West Jackson Boulevard,

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

    Dated: March 29, 1995.
