[CO-001-0024b; FRL-6124-5]


Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans; 
Colorado; 1993 Periodic Carbon Monoxide Emission Inventories for 
Colorado

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is proposing to approve a State Implementation Plan (SIP) 
revision submitted by the Governor of the State of Colorado on 
September 16, 1997. The revision contains the 1993 periodic carbon 
monoxide (CO) emission inventories for Colorado Springs, Denver, Fort 
Collins, and Longmont that were submitted to satisfy the requirements 
of section 187(a)(5) 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 SIP revision as a direct final rule without prior proposal 
because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial SIP 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 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comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public 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 must be received on or before August 14, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Written comments may be mailed to Richard R. Long, Director, 
Air Program, Mailcode 8P2-A, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), 
Region VIII, 999 18th Street, Suite 500, Denver, Colorado 80202. Copies 
of the documents relevant to this action are available for public 
inspection during normal business hours at the Air Program, 
Environmental Protection Agency, Region VIII, 999 18th Street, Suite 
500, Denver, Colorado 80202. Copies of the State documents relevant to 
this action are available for public inspection at the Colorado 
Department of Public Health and Environment, Air Pollution Control 
Division, 4300 Cherry Creek Drive South, Denver, Colorado 80246-1530.

Final action of the same title which is located in the Rules and 
Regulations Section of this Federal Register.

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

    Dated: July 6, 1998.
