ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Parts 52 and 81

[WV27-1-7013b, WV27-2-7014b; FRL-5266-1]


Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Designation of Areas for Air Quality Planning Purposes; Redesignation 
of the Greenbrier County, West Virginia Ozone Nonattainment Area to 
Attainment and Approval of the Area's Maintenance Plan and Emissions 
Inventory

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP) 
revisions submitted by the State of West Virginia for the purpose of 
establishing a 1990 base year ozone inventory and a maintenance plan 
for the Greenbrier County ozone nonattainment area. EPA is also 
proposing to approve the request submitted by the State of West 
Virginia to redesignate the Greenbrier County area to attainment of the 
National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for ozone. In the Final 
Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the State's 
SIP revision and redesignation request as a direct final rule without 
prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial SIP 
revision and anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for 
the approval is set forth in the Technical Support Document (TSD) that 
has been prepared by EPA on these rulemaking actions. The TSD is 
available for public inspection at the EPA Regional office listed in 
the ADDRESSES section of this notice. If no adverse comments are 
received in response to this proposed rule, no further activity is 
contemplated in relation to this rule. If 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public 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. 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 must be received in writing by September 5, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to 
Marcia L. Spink, Associate Director, Air Programs, Mailcode 3AT00, U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency, Region III, 841 Chestnut Building, 
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 19107. Copies of the documents relevant to 
this action are available for public inspection during normal business 
hours at the Air, Radiation, and Toxics Division, U.S. Environmental 
Protection Agency, Region III, 841 Chestnut Building, Philadelphia, 
Pennsylvania, 19107; and the West Virginia Division of Environmental 
Protection, Office of Air Quality, 1558 Washington Street, East,
