40 CFR Part 62

[SC-34-1-9816b: FRL-6130-1]


Approval and Promulgation of State Plans For Designated 
Facilities and Pollutants: South Carolina

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA proposes to approve the Section 111(d)/129 plan submitted 
by the State of South Carolina through the South Carolina Department of 
Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) on January 14, 1998, February 
5, 1998, and March 6, 1998. The Plan was submitted by the State to 
satisfy certain Federal Register, EPA is approving the South Carolina 
State Plan submittal as a direct final rule without prior proposal 
because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial submittal and 
anticipates that it will not receive any significant, material, and 
adverse comments. A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in 
the direct final rule and incorporated herein. If no significant, 
material, and adverse comments are received in response to the 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will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in 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. EPA will not 
institute a second comment period.

DATES: Comments must be received in writing by August 26, 1998.
