ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52

[IL129-1-7046b; FRL-5464-9]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Illinois

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) 
proposes to approve a State revision to the Illinois sulfur dioxide 
State Implementation Plan (SO2 SIP), submitted on March 14, 1995. 
This revision revises the SO2 emission limitations applicable to 
Madison

[[Page 20202]]

County through three Federally enforceable State operating permits.
    In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the USEPA is 
publishing a full approval of the State's SIP revision request as a 
direct final rule without prior proposal, because USEPA views this 
action as a noncontroversial 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 
these actions, no further activity is contemplated in relation to this 
proposed rule.
    If USEPA receives timely comments adverse to or critical of the 
approval, which have not been addressed by the State or USEPA, 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direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received 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. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should do so 
at this time.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received on or before 
June 5, 1996.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be mailed to: J. Elmer Bortzer, 
Chief, Regulation Development Section, Air Programs Branch (AR-18J), 
United States 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:
    Air and Radiation Division, Air Programs Branch, United States 
Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, 77 West Jackson Boulevard, 
Chicago, Illinois 60604.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mary Onischak, Environmental Engineer, 
Air Programs Branch, (AR-18J), United States Environmental Protection 
Agency, Region 5, Chicago, Illinois 60604, (312) 353-5954.
