ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 81

[NE-012-1012b; FRL-5655-7]


Designation of Areas for Air Quality Planning Purposes; State of 
Nebraska

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to correct a previous action published on 
November 6, 1991, that designated portions of Omaha, Nebraska, as 
nonattainment for the lead National Ambient Air Quality Standard (see 
56 FR 56694). Specifically, this action corrects a mistake made in 
designating the southern boundary of that nonattainment area. This 
correction has no practical effect on the sources which are subject to 
the nonattainment provisions of the original designation.
    In the final rules section of the Federal Register, the EPA is 
approving the correction as a direct final rule without prior proposal 
because the Agency views this 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 this proposed rule, no further activity is 
contemplated in relation to this rule. If the 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public 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: Comments must be received on or before January 3, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to Josh Tapp, Environmental 
Protection Agency, Air Branch, 726 Minnesota Avenue, Kansas City, 
Kansas 66101.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Josh Tapp at (913) 551-7606.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: See the information provided in the direct 
final rule which is located in the rules section of the Federal 
Register.

    Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401-7671q.
