Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans Tennessee: 
Approval of Revisions to the Tennessee State Implementation Plan

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve revisions to the Tennessee State 
Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted on June 21, 1993, and June 22, 
1993, by the State of Tennessee, through the Tennessee Department of 
Environment and Conservation (DEC), submitted revisions to the 
Tennessee State Implementation Plan (SIP). The submittal of June 21, 
1993 revises Chapter 1200-3-14 Control of Sulfur Dioxide Emissions and 
the submittal of June 22, 1993 revises Chapter 1200-3-10 Required 
Sampling, Recording and Reporting. On December 17, 1993, the Memphis 
Shelby County Health Department, through the Tennessee DEC, submitted 
revisions to Section 16-85 of the Memphis Shelby County Portion of the 
Tennessee SIP which adopt by reference revisions to Chapter 1200-3-10 
of the Tennessee SIP. The intended effect of this revision is to 
clarify certain provisions and ensure consistency with the Clean Air 
Act.
    In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the EPA is 
approving the State's SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior 
proposal because the EPA views this as a noncontroversial revision 
amendment 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 proposed 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receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and 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. The EPA will not institute a second 
comment period on this document. Any parties interested in commenting 
on this document should do so at this time.

DATES: To be considered, comments must be received by April 18, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to Mr. 
Scott M. Martin at the EPA Regional Office listed below.
