ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Parts 52

[FL-60-1-6929b; FRL-5609-4]


Approval and Promulgation of Lead State Implementation Plan for 
the State of Florida

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve the state implementation plan 
(SIP) revision submitted by the State of Florida on August 18, 1994, 
through the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. The 
revision includes amendments to the rules in the Florida Administrative 
Code, Chapters 17-275, Air Quality Areas, and 17-296, Stationary 
Sources--Emission Standards. These revisions provide for the control of 
lead emissions from facilities in the State of Florida, and will 
replace the Federal Implementation Plan requirements codified in 40 CFR 
52.535.
    In the final rules section of this Federal Register, the EPA is 
approving the State of Florida's SIP revision 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 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 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will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in 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 October 18, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to 
Kimberly Bingham, at the EPA Regional Office listed below. Copies of
