40 CFR Part 52

[VA21-1-5883b; FRL-5292-3]


Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Virginia--VOC RACT Requirements

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve a State Implementation Plan (SIP) 
revision submitted by the Commonwealth of Virginia on November 6, 1992. 
This revision pertains to amendments to Virginia's major source 
volatile organic compound (VOC) reasonably available control technology 
(RACT) requirements. In the Final Rules section of this Federal 
Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP revision 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 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 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public 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 October 27, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to
