ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[MO 042-1042(b); FRL-5979-5]


Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of 
Missouri

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The EPA proposes to approve revisions pertaining to the 
consolidation of Missouri local agency ordinances and codes currently 
contained in the Federally approved State Implementation Plan (SIP). 
These revisions were submitted to the EPA on March 20, 1997, to simply 
compliance for certain sources in order to maintain air quality in 
Missouri.
    In the final rules section of the Federal Register, the EPA is 
approving the plan as a direct final rule without prior proposal 
because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial revision and 
anticipates no relevant adverse comments. A detailed rationale for the 
approval is set forth in the direct final rule. If no relevant adverse 
comments are received in response to this proposed rule, no further 
activity is contemplated in relation to this rule. If the EPA receives 
relevant adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and 
all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final 
rule based on the 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 on this proposed rule must be received in writing on or 
before May 22, 1998.

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

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

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

    Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.

    Dated: February 25, 1998.
William Rice,
Acting Regional Administrator, Region VII.
