ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
40 CFR Part 52

[OR34-1-6136b, OR51-7266b, OR58-7273b; FRL-5680-4]


Approval and Promulgation of State Implementation Plans: Oregon

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposes to approve 
revisions to Oregon's State Implementation Plan (SIP). EPA is proposing 
to approve revisions to Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR) Chapter 340, 
Divisions 21 through 24, 26, 27, 30, and 34 submitted to EPA on May 28, 
1993, a revision to Division 22 submitted to EPA on September 27, 1995, 
and revisions to Division 20, 21, 22, 25, 27, and 30 submitted to EPA 
on October 8, 1996, to satisfy the requirements of section 110 of the 
Clean Air Act (CAA) and 40 CFR part 51.
    In the Final Rules Section of this Federal Register, the EPA is 
approving the State'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 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adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all 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 action.

DATES: Comments on this proposed rule must be received in writing by 
March 27, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Montel Livingston,
