Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; Reasonably 
Available Control Technology for Oxides of Nitrogenfor Specific Sources 
in the State of New York

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve three (3) State Implementation 
Plan (SIP) revisions submitted by the State of New York related to 
development of reasonably available control technologies for oxides of 
nitrogen from various sources in the State. In the Final Rules section 
of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP revisions, 
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 
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final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be 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 secondcomment period on this rulemaking. Any 
parties interested in commenting on this Federal Register should do so 
at this time.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before October 23, 1997.

ADDRESSES: All comments should be addressed to: Ronald Borsellino, 
Chief, Air Programs Branch, Environmental Protection Agency, Region 2 
Office, 290 Broadway, New York, New York 10007-1866.
