Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans Alabama: 
Revisions to Several Chapters and Appendices of the Alabama Department 
of Environmental Management (ADEM) Administrative Code for the Air 
Pollution Control Program

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 Alabama through the Department 
of Environmental Management on October

[[Page 31038]]

30, 1996, the State of Alabama through the Department of Environmental 
Management (ADEM) submitted a State Implementation Plan (SIP) submittal 
to revise the ADEM Administrative Code for the Air Pollution Control 
Program. Numerous revisions were made to Chapters 335-3-1, -2, -3, -4, 
-5, -6, -8, -9, -12, -13, -14, -15, Appendices C, E, and F. In the 
final rules section of this Federal Register, the EPA is approving the 
State of Alabama'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receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and 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 July 7, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Written comments on this action should be addressed to 
Kimberly Bingham, at the EPA Regional Office listed below. Copies of 
the documents relative to this action are available for public 
inspection during normal business hours at the following locations. The
