[A-1-FRL-5217-1]


Determination of Attainment of Ozone Standard for Lewiston-Auburn 
and Knox and Lincoln Counties, Maine Ozone Nonattainment Areas and 
Determination Regarding Applicability of Certain Reasonable Further 
Progress and Attainment Demonstration Requirements

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to determine that the Lewiston-Auburn, Maine 
and the Knox and Lincoln Counties, Maine ozone nonattainment areas have 
attained the National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for ozone 
and that certain reasonable further progress and attainment 
demonstration requirements, along with certain related requirements, of 
Part D of Title I of the Clean Air Act are not applicable for so long 
as the areas continue to attain the ozone standard. In the Final Rules 
section of this Federal Register, EPA is making these determinations 
without prior proposal. A detailed rationale for the action 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 EPA receives adverse comments, 
EPA will withdraw the direct final rule and address the comments in a 
subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. EPA will not 
institute a second comment period on this notice. Any parties 
interested in commenting on this notice should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments on this action must be received by July 6, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be mailed to Susan Studlien, 
Director, Air, Pesticides and Toxics Management Division, U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency, Region I, JFK Federal Bldg., Boston,
