[CO24-1-5701b, CO25-1-5700b, CO26-1-5702b; FRL-5664-2]


Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Colorado; 1990 Base Year Carbon Monoxide Emission Inventories for 
Colorado

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing approval of the 1990 base year carbon 
monoxide (CO) emission inventories for Colorado Springs, Denver/
Longmont, and Fort Collins that were submitted by the State to satisfy 
certain requirements of the Clean Air Act (CAA), as amended in 1990. In 
the Final Rules Section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the 
State's State Implementation Plan (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 
this proposed rule, no further activity is contemplated in relation to 
this 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be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a 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. EPA will not 
institute a second comment period on this action. Any parties 
interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by 
January 22, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to: Richard R. Long, 
Director, Air Program (8P2-A), United States Environmental Protection 
Agency, Region 8, 999 18th Street, Suite 500, Denver, Colorado 80202-
2466

public inspection between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday through 
Friday at the following office: United States Environmental Protection
