40 CFR Part 52

[MT31-1-7007b; FRL-5275-2]


Clean Air Act Approval and Promulgation of PM10 State 
Implementation Plan for Montana; Missoula Air Pollution Control Program 
Regulations

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the State implementation plan (SIP) 
revisions submitted by the State of Montana with a letter dated March 
3, 1995. This submittal consists of several revisions to Missoula City-
County Air Pollution Control Program regulations, which were adopted by 
the Montana Board of Health and Environmental Sciences (MBHES) on 
September 16, 1994. These rules include regulations regarding emergency 
procedure, paving of roads, driveways, and parking lots, street 
sweeping, National standards of performance for new stationary sources 
(NSPS), National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants 
(NESHAPs), and solid fuel burning 

[[Page 45113]]
devices. Further, EPA proposes that this submittal satisfies the one 
remaining commitment made by the State in a previous PM10 SIP 
submittal.

    In the Final Rules Section of this Federal Register, EPA is acting 
on the State's SIP revisions 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 
EPA's action 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 and the direct final rule will become 
effective. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will 
be withdrawn before the effective date by publishing a subsequent 
document that will withdraw the final action. All public comments 
received will then be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on 
this action serving as a proposed rule. EPA will not institute a second 
comment period on this action. Any parties interested in commenting on 
this document should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by 
September 29, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to Amy 
Platt, 8ART-AP, at the EPA Regional Office listed below. Copies of the 
State's submittal and documents relevant to this proposed rule are 
available for inspection during normal business hours at the following 
locations: Air Programs Branch, Environmental Protection Agency, Region 
VIII, 999 18th Street, suite 500, Denver, Colorado 80202-2405; and 
Montana Department of Health and Environmental Sciences, Air Quality 
Bureau, Cogswell Building, Helena, Montana 59620-0901.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Amy Platt at (303) 293-1769.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: See the information provided in the Direct 
Final action which is located in the Rules Section of this Federal 
Register.

    Dated: July 28, 1995.

Acting Regional Administrator.
