ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52

[IL133-1-7125b; FRL-5435-1]


Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Illinois: Motor Vehicle Inspection and Maintenance

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The USEPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan 
(SIP) revision request submitted by the State of Illinois on June 26, 
1995, as a formal submittal of the 1992 motor vehicle inspection and 
maintenance program enhancements developed and implemented, in part, as 
a response to the 1989 Federal Implementation Plan agreement between 
Illinois, Wisconsin, and USEPA. In the final rules section of this 
Federal Register, the USEPA is approving this action as a direct final 
rule without prior proposal because USEPA views this as a 
noncontroversial action 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 that direct final rule, no 
further activity is contemplated in relation to this proposed rule. If 
USEPA 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withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a 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 the proposed rule. USEPA 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 on or before May 
9, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be mailed to:

J. Elmer Bortzer, Chief, Regulation Development Section, Air Programs 
Branch (AR18-J), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, 77 
West Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604.
    Copies of the State submittal and USEPA's analysis of it are 
available for inspection at:

Regulation Development Section, Air Programs Branch (AR18-J), U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, 77 West Jackson Boulevard, 
Chicago, Illinois 60604.
